3-1 wouldn't have been all that fantastic in my book. Ever thought of getting a season ticket at Sturm Graz? I'm sure that would be a bundle of laughs.

I think the reason why people get ****ed off with you is that you always seem far happier when we lose than when we win. And you often write complete arse. Just IMHO of course. It's one game. We did OK. We need some work in a few areas - right back and up front I think. But your sense of 'inevitability' is just tosh. Mind you if I lived in Austria I'd be quite depressed too.

i see rasiak's not even on the bench. when's he leaving d'you think? still think mcgoal backed up by bwp is our weakest link. time to prove me wrong boys.

Why the Indian flag?

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/articles/article.php?page_id=10407 Not sure why the New Management feels the need to 'big up' mcgoaldrick every chance they get. I didn't think self-belief was one of his problems. He's done well this pre-season but is a long way from the finished article. Either way, I hope he gets a decent run even if he doesn't score in the first couple of weeks of the season. But I'd still be bringing on an alternative up front during the second half. I now realise Barto is the only poster on here who knows anything about tactics or football in general, but funnily enough I still rate Rasiak's ability to put the ball in the back of the net.

Liverpool fans have been voted the most attractive in football with Portsmouth's blue army taking the dubious honour of worst looking. (The Mirror) Nothing much to argue with there (apart from the Liverpool bit).

Fair point. But if it works, it'll be ****ing awesome .

While the endless debate about Rupert Lowe goes round in circles, and is obviously of all-consuming interest to some, I personally don't give a rat's arse right now. So back to what this thread was supposed to be about - I'd like to know whether Arsenal had any role in the transfer of Schneiderlin from Strasbourg and whether they have been given any guaranteed option to buy in the future - and for how long is Andrew Davies likely to be out?

And if you want any indication of how lazy many sports journalists are, and how little they know about our team, check out the BBC's squad selector for SFC. You can pick (among others) from the following: Le Tissier, Lundekvam, Viafara, Makin... Idiakez, Mettomo, Kaland, Ostlund, Pericard, Iain Pearce, Fatty Hammill etc etc. Only name missing is A Dia

Shurely it's worth playing Stoke simply for the chance to wind up Ricardo Fuller?

The more the rest of the world expects us to fail the better. If we're playing the kids then keeping the pressure off is just what the doctor ordered. And that also means we the fans have to get behind them as much as possible, never mind what anyone thinks of the chairman. Anyone caught booing at any time in the first few months should be given a good slap.

As I said before... With Morgan Schneiderlin The Saints are gonna win He's got the class to kick your arse He's Morgan Schneiderlin Ohhhhhhhh.... Schneiderlin Schneiderlin Morgan Schneiderlin Oh what fun it is to watch him help Southampton win, Oh Schneiderlin Schneiderlin Morgan Schneiderlin He comes from France, 'Allo 'Allo And he'll kick your ****ing head in Repeat ad infinitum Still better than Spiderman theme tune IMO - but fear not I'm used to being in the minority
