Just seen a couple of posters reassessing their Puel period on there so things must be bad.

I wish we could be three nil down.

I don't think the issue the the fans. 3 wins in 18 or whatever it is is an appalling record. That is not the fans fault. We were utterly dreadful yesterday with those supposed fickle fans almost universally predicting a win. Saints being woeful yesterday is not the "problem" of fickle fans. How is it their fault? How about don't be terrible? How about that.

Getting to a situation where we are saying "boy do we miss" a 18 year old with a handful of senior games under his belt points to something of a fuck up in the transfer window.

Anyway, I can't see what signing a striker could possibly have done for us.

Honestly as a nation we simply must remove the cap on bankers bonuses as soon as we possibly can. Absolutely vital.

You might be to young to remember we had a player called Danny Ings once who scored lot of goals in a shit team. So that's what a striker could have done.

Club said we needed a striker, Ralph said "yes" we were getting one when asked before the window closed. We did not get a striker.

Nice for Prince William, though.

Personally I blame the new assistant manager for that performance.

No one posted in the minutes silence 👏 👏 👏

Once you've won the world cup, there's nothing else you can really achieve.

The last one being Virgil, which will be five years ago when the January window rolls around.

"Thick" people not understanding what they've signed up to, then taking a hit and then moaning about the consequences that were foreseeable and avoidable? I wonder if that has ever happened before?

You'll have to remind me of the bidding war of clubs smashing over the buy back fee for him. The point is Ake has not become a world beating megastar. If Lavia turns out just okay and Spurs and Arsenal fight over him and Man City aren't bothered, then Spurs/Arsenal pay about £40m. Buy back not activated, fine. Perfectly possible. If he becomes a world beater at 19-20 or whatever and the price is £60-£80m, on what planet are Man City walking away from that and just letting it happen. The scenario people are trying to build here is not going to play out.

Exactly. I don't get where people think other clubs are going to be chucking £80m about and Man City just sit there and let it happen while we magically trot off to the bank with wheelbarrows full of cash. It won't play out like that.

Got it, thanks. The centre back we signed that without playing a single second for us is already being put in midfield on this forum. Amazing.

9-0 klaxon.

Strong start. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/sep/13/king-charles-staff-given-redundancy-notice-during-church-service-for-queen?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other

Okay I give up. Who is DCC supposed to be?

If anyone thinks some of the poppy day displays/posters/creations that appear outside peoples houses were mawkishly over the top in recent years, then this November is going to go up a level once the Queen gets bundled in with it all. Probably arm in arm with Captain Tom flying a Spitfire in the First World War trenches.

Someone needs to revive that famous thread we had on here once: "How can we get the St Mary's crowd to match the atmosphere of the PGA Tour Championship?"

Weirdo. Can't get out of bed. Just Lookin'.

I understand virtue signalling perfectly. The problem is people like you can only see virtue signalling in others, in people that aren't you. You love to lecture "you youngsters" and position older generations like you as better than younger generations because you have coins of other Kings in your pocket once. Fucking amazing. Look how virtuous me and my older generation are, the country "didn't go to the dogs" but it is now because we're better and more virtuous than you youngsters. Virtue signalling. It's in pretty much every single post you put up on here. If only we had your virtues grandad, you're fucking amazing. And here you are blubbering like a baby because you didn't get what you wanted and couldn't go to a football match.

The death of the longest serving monarch is "no big deal" but you not being able to go to a little football match is, by contrast, a fucking massive deal you seem unable to cope with, or keep calm, or carry on. By the way, your routine about how many rulers you've seen on a coin is the dictionary definition of virtue signalling, so jolly well done.
