Having made the two league jump from Barnet he was garbage in the early games of the season, in which Plymouth failed to win any games and the fans thought he was out of his depth and gave him some stick - his languid style suggested a lack of interest. In his sixth and final game against Norwich they had a defender sent off after half an hour. Puncheon was immediatley substituted by Luggy to bring another defender on. Plymouth were already a goal down at that point and went on to lose the game. He was then dropped and didn't play for five weeks until MK Dons took him on loan. What odds he was less than impressed about being the man taken off and had words with Sturrock that led to his exit. Having said that you'd of thought he would have gone quicker than five weeks later, but perhaps the emergency loan window does not open till end of October? BTW Adkins saying his head is not right usually just means he has been offered a contract elsewhere and that is bound to take his focus.

if, and boy it's a big if, Hughes and Brown find new clubs that don't require the skates to pay 90% of their wages for the next five months, then there will be a few bob to spend there.

please enlighten me as to the state of our finances because I've asked on here many times and no one has a clue. Are you telling me we are breaking even as I have hinted at several times, or are you saying we make a loss but thanks to ML (NOT NC) that debt is wiped out? Oh by the way Sheff Wed has very similar support to us in L1.

for the ignorant like me, what is this truth you talk of that needs to come out one day?

how has the club honoured him since NC got here? Non stop *****ing between the two parties is all I have seen with both at fault. Also, he went to buy tickets for his family FFS. If Ted Bates was still alive and had done exactly the same thing would there be a single person on here attacking him for asking to buy ten tickets?

the article does not say that at all.

its not just his wages, he's ****ing average to say the least. He can't pass forwards....ever

Hughes to Saints says skate mate.

Routledge to QBR, Lee Cook to us?

Let me ask again, was it not the administrator ignoring the ML bid that almost derailed the ML bid? Mat put his name to a consortium that was trying to buy AND save the club. It fell through, not his fault he backed the wrong people, and certainly not his fault the administrator failed to talk to all parties in full keeping options fully open. Another point is that the Star report says `friends and family'. As I recall his family used to come and watch the Saints games all the time. I suppose that is probably not the case now, but they were all Saints fans that's for sure. Who is to say he asked for ten, found out that you needed customer numbers so reduced it to three as he had three customer numbers. If I was Le Tiss, I'd go straight to the ticket office to buy tickets and not queue up on the phones. His efforts deserve at least that personal attention surely? By the way he is NOT asking for free tickets he just wanted to buy ten. Hardly taking the ****. Him and Cortese need to bury the hatchet.

surely the ****flaps term `f'sure' is worth an infraction point or two on here.

their chairman is worth a few bob, so they don't need the money. Having said that you don't get rich by giving money away. Realistically Pilkington might join us after we get promoted but not before.

get in early with `Come to see Southampton, you only came to see Southampton'

Matty has already done his thing, Cortese getting us into the Champions League, well that's to be seen.

out of interest was this not the fault of the administrator or were pinnicle instrumental in the opposition being ignored? Matt may have backed the wrong horse, but I never really understood why Cortese and him started *****ing at each other. Was Matt not interested only in Saints surviving or did he have very strong interests in `doing well' out of any buyout?

couldn't get a deal at Aberdeen or Leyton Orient. Either he asked for too much money or he ain't good enough.

Echo now printed in time for a morning delivery. No more last thing at night announcements me thinks.

I know its the performances and goals that have brought the crowd adulation and the songs, but I just wonder if our Ollay song has helped to make him feel `at home' and `loved' by the fans, which in turn has helped secure this permanent deal. Probably not, but long may it continue because if we are singing the Olay song it means he's playing well and if he's playing well I suspect we will be winning games.

not sure I follow?

you may be right, but I just can't get this game in 2009 out of my head whenever I hear his name mentioned. Burnley had been beaten only once in the previous 9 and were only beaten once in the next 14 champsionship/playoff games after it - so were no mugs! 2mins 4mins 4.30mins although it is worth watching the whole thing.

that would be DAF

I suggested Clarke a while back as a possible loan signing. At his best he was unplayable for Wedneasday, but I'm not sure how often that was. Not getting in the QPR side doesn;t mean you are a terrible player mind.

I do feel you and anyone else that resorts to calling optimistic Saints fans as `happy clappy' have lost the arguement. Just for the record I actually stand on the side of `we ought to not rest on our laurels and look to strengthen'.
