I don’t think anyone except Saints fans gives a flying fuck that we beat gigantic Millwall and Swansea in late August/early September.
What media coverage were you expecting for that?
The quote in the linked article says this
"Seven officers were treated at the scene for injuries, but no-one in attendance was seriously hurt"
So well done on trying to be a clever cunt but guess what, you're full of shit.
Probably zero backlash.
The world has moved on. The most likely "backlash" would be from a particularly punitive punishment because the external consensus now will be that we've been punished enough.
Like others have said: if it's supposedly bad enough for a year ban why on earth has he been allowed to start the season?
He's getting punished but I expect comparable to a player that has lamped someone - six games or something.
I don't know how many times people can "not fathom" it. We are trying to get rid of him, we don't want to pay him a penny more than the bare minimum in his contract. It is nothing, nothing to do with how good he is as a goalkeeper.
He's from Chippenham which every SaintsWeb forum contributor should understand is slap bang in the middle of the Southampton FC catchment area.
He's a red and white Saint to his fucking bones.
More like: he doesn't want to go to Saudi or Turkey or anywhere.
We've tried to get him out but we can't. No one else that he could conceivably go to wanted him.
Be interesting to see how we play it when the very last window shuts.
