Except, they're not. We've got 24 points and stone dead bottom. It's got fuck all to do with Brighton.
-
Lots of teams down the bottom really battling it out to stay up. It's a real shame that we haven't been one of them, at all, since January.
-
Excellent streams thanks!
-
Surely you could post that following any of the three possible results. Not sure how a draw between them is any better for us. We need a bare minimum of 3 wins from 6 games and can only afford to maybe lose one more match all season. We're not going to do it. A point or two for Leeds or Leicester either way feels irrelevant.
-
Well, they pointedly said that "his last show was on Friday" so he won't have any opportunity to control any final broadcast because he's already done it. Fox have already changed the locks.
-
I wish we were Brighton now that I revoked any desire to wish we were Wolves, West Ham or Leicester who I absolutely don't wish we were any more. Next season I wish we were Villa or Burnley probably.
-
Crocker had already announced he was leaving weeks ago.
-
I think if we really want the Plymouth manager we could get him without too much difficulty.
-
So just to check, "everybody's got a price" but also bankrolling a club is, like, bad? Got it.
-
We won't pay Potter his price as a Championship club. It's not rocket science.
-
I was specifically replying to you saying "pay Potter the right amount and I reckon we are a club he would seriously consider" Which is nothing to do with our training ground or comparing us to Watford or all that other irrelevant stuff you've just said. "pay anyone the right amount and they'll join......pay Potter the right amount and he'll consider us" That's about pay, and we'd have to blow other Premier clubs out of the water to get Potter to even consider us. You said it. It's not rocket science.
-
....aaaaand as predicted, even if we had won yesterday we would have still finished the weekend bottom of the league.
-
Why are you pretending we are going to be some mega spending club breaking the bank for managers when we're in the Championship? We will not be offering Graham Potter more money than he can get at any established Premier League club. He will not be "considering" us, he is not going to be our manager. Not sure if you've been following us this season but Wolves and Villa got big name European managers snd we got a twat from Luton. I am hopeful we will get a decent manager but we will not be blowing Premier League clubs out of the water.
-
Graham Potter is not going to be our manager next season. Honestly unbelievable to me that any Saints fan would think he is going to be. My guess for him is he just might go and do a David Moyes/Steve McClaren and manage abroad after his big job failure. Germany, Spain. He already has some European managerial experience, so it's a logical step. If not then yes the usual suspects of mid table middling Prem clubs. Which won't be us.
-
Now do six wins all season, twenty defeats and rock bottom. Now do all the defeats against the teams around us. Chelsea are currently bottom half anyway. The cup tie meant nothing in the scheme of things, that's what flattering to deceive means.

Carlton Palmer didn't enjoy his time at Saints particularly and didn't/doesn't like Matt Le Tissier specifically. He went into that in the Quickly Kevin podcast a few years ago. I would never expect Palmer to talk about us, he's not known for being a Southampton person, he was with us for less than a season and a half in a career where he played for lots of clubs and England. I never hear any fans ever talk fondly about him, no one is nostalgic about him here. We don't care about him, so why should he care about us? I think you are being completely unfair on Shearer. His missus is from Southampton, and he talks about us fondly from time to time, especially in the context of his development. When our relegation is confirmed I am sure he will say something. He's from Newcastle and is a favourite son of the city. God knows why you'd expect him to be chatting about us every five minutes. Some Saints fans are absolutely myopic.

It's a bit late to "start picking up points". We are going down because you don't stay up off the back of pull-out-all-the-stops gut-busting hard fought draws and noble defeats against the Champions League clubs. We usually do pretty well against Bournemouth but even winning it won't be enough. We're down because we flatter to deceive against the big clubs then shit the bed against the bottom half clubs.
-
You know those pundits and loads of other pundits spend a lot of time praising James Ward-Prowse while you twat on with your "son in law" routine every bloody week? They were right and you're wrong. You know plenty of pundits could see how utterly shit Nathan Jones was while you were salivating about how agressive and hard to beat he was making us? They were right and you're wrong. What do those pundits know, eh? Duckhunter knows best everyone. Clueless cunt.
-
Fucking give it a rest. We scored a freak goal in the first minute, it wasn't some tactical masterclass. If that goal had gone during Ralph's reign you'd be falling over yourself to call it a fluke.
-
Absolutely worthless point but at least it was an enjoyable match and we bloody scored some goals.
-
Look him in the eye, tell him he's Bobby Moore and get him back on
-
In fairness he's only said that about four players and all of them are too good for the second tier. It takes more than four good players to stay up, and that's why we're bottom.
-
I think you are probably over estimating the recruiting of 8-12 year old children in the process. Really the coaching structure, facilities, culture, pathway, support network etc etc are infinitely more important and that is the accountability of someone other than Les Reed for the last five years, which is a long time in football. I know it's awfully fun and nostalgic to keep blaming him for everything but seriously, get over it.
