Fine, I'm neither so works for me. Pick up with @Farmer Saint who is at least one of them

The only hypocrite is you - you are crying about me being a bully but accusing anyone questioning potential bullying by others as being "pussies". Make it make sense.

Stop crying about someone on a web forum being a “bully” and a “hard man” maybe?

I thought people needed to "stop being such pussies"?

Quite right. Boo hoo the media are being horrible and why aren't our club media contacts unflinchingly loyal and obedient to whatever the club says. Agree it is pathetic.

I think this existing in your own mind.

Well he hasn't been sacked and isn't going to be sacked. How long do you want to prolong playing the victim being you have got what you want?

I assume that a guy who spent two years working as an assistant at a EFL football club would know the rules of the league he was playing in rather than pretending he didn't. Maybe he doesn't have a pair of eyes or ears. To try and pin a load of blame on an intern for not speaking out more is a disgrace from Solak and here, you.

99% of the story is about spying and part of that was pressuring interns to support that even though it was against the rules. Frothing at the mouth about something that is at the fringes of the story I don't actually think adds to anything when the main facts are undisputed and admitted to.

I mean you people can pretend Tonda didn't go on screen and say "I am responsible" if you like. You can twist yourselves into mental gymnastic knots that "other people" did the bad things while poor old angelic innocent Tonda floated about being wonderful and was some kind of accidental innocent passenger in it all. But it's bullshit. He was, very obviously being - and admitted to - at the very heart of this. I dont get why people are falling over themselves to "prove" some distanced, reductive innocence when its obvious he isn't innocent, and the club and he himself admitted guilt to the investigation and on screen to our faces.

So apart from that you are 100% behind everything that Blackmore has said about the situation. Good to know.

There is evidence, not least Solak's stuff in his interview/statement about "well, the intern should have complained more". Not "it didn't happen" just blaming the intern for not complaining more loudly. I'm not sure what "actual evidence" you are looking for when the club admitted the wrong they've done, they haven't accused the intern of lying when he said to the investigation that he felt pressured and uncomfortable. There seems to be a group of people that have decided that because Solak and the club have gone through with their "fuck you, we're not sacking anyone" routine that it means the club did no wrong. Well, they did do wrong. It's not a "narrative" being pushed by Adam Blackmore.

Um, not that many times? If anything we do the opposite and hardly ever say anything or "put things out there" about incoming transfers.

They did the same as THB you mean? Thought so.

I must have missed Matsuki and Scienza's statements on the official Saints website.

Would be a brilliant start to the window.

THB will go, we should be able to get decent money and replace him relatively economically. Nathan Wood will hope to be a more regular starter. Maybe Quashie steps up (maybe) or failing that Spors finds a ball playing CB gem for a couple of million somewhere. But THB is off, hopefully out of the Championship and to the lower end of the Prem.

There's only one voice of the fans and it's me.

Hopefully they only ban him for the month of July 🤞

I would say this is a particularly twattish comment and I doubt Steve would agree with it. Someone like @L1Minus10 had a different view, perfectly valid. To question his loyalty to the club he has supported forty odd years is a pretty low blow and I don't see why he should feel "foolish" in any way. Just because the club does it doesn't mean what the club does is always right. Fuck me it has made loads of mistakes. Try to be less of a twat about things.

When we go one nil down: We knew you'd do that We knew you'd do thaaaat We are Southampton We knew you'd do that

Poor old Adam Blackmore has been gazumped there.

Well that's the best thing that has happened to Saints for a few weeks. We taken a huge punishment and we dont need to be given any more. Solak is almost daring the FA to try banning him. Let's hope that works. Nice one Solak.

True but that's someone being banned, rather than being sacked. It reads like we aren't going to sack him on our own terms. It also reads like the club will fight any banning order (probably using Bielsa as precedent, even though there are other cases where bans have happened).

It means no one is getting sacked. Not Parsons, not Tonda. Not the position I was expecting but it's a position.
