I think it’s great that the owners of SFC who said we are the lead club and the priority are buying, loaning and selling players that “has absolutely no effect on Saints at all”. You understand that this is precisely the argument for “the multi club model is not helping us”, right? Me taking the piss out of it doesn’t mean I don’t understand it. But thanks for the lessons x

Try really hard and you could make that post even more patronising. The point is there has been no visible tangible benefit to the multi-club model for us as a club several years in. Knock yourself out about how wonderful the theory is but allow the rest of us the opportunity to question the point of it.

Stand up if you love the business model Stand up if you love the business model Stand up if you love the business model Stand up if you love the business model Absolutely fucking buzzing to see the mid-year financial results, as all true supporters should be

Happy days if it is this, a fitting tribute to 1976, although I expected the away kit to be pure Bobby Stokes. Either way a very good set of kits. The Hummel 80s throwback was the first top I'd bought in 25 odd years but for that home I may go in again this season.

Is Saints being fucking shit part of the business model?

I'm just hoping some of these signings ultimately find their way to Valenciennes and make them even stronger 🤞🤞🤞🙏🙏🙏

It's a crazy idea but maybe Leicester City will appoint a manager with no connection to Southampton whatsoever? The world doesn't completely revolve around us.

I said Rangers would be absolutely perfect for him (probably on this thread somewhere). 85% possession vs Motherwell will be right up his street. And he will win a trophy or two.

Ok this in an interesting minor detail but doesn't alter my view that if the club don't bring out a version of that admiral kit for this season then the entire commercial department needs to be lined up and shot.

I am prepared to believe that the club will go with something very much like this - 50 years since our greatest day (and the away kit sorts itself out as well). Even more than the Hummel revival kit last time, this is an absolute no-brainer. I can't believe they wouldn't do it.

We live in a world where Tottenham can finish one place above relegation and Man U can be down there all season but some can't conceive that Brentford or Forest or Fulham or Wolves could possibly finish 18th or 19th ever again, they are guaranteed Premier League teams forever and ever now because well because.

How about the fucking shite loads of goals conceded at Swansea over two seasons?

Er, he hasn't though? All of 13th in L1 for MK Dons achieving nothing and then two seasons of absolute unadulterated mediocrity at Swansea conceding hatfuls of goals in both seasons (which despite the riches we gave him he repeated that in the Championship with us).

What's "spicy" about that? Basically the same level of competition as the last time we were in the Championship.

Boring cunt that predicts us to lose every single match we've ever played for at least a decade picks out some specific matches and what do you know predicts we'll lose them as well.

.....Tom Cleverley went to watch the U21s for nothing, then.

I think completely unreasonable to position a manager that we've appointed before the season is out as a "second choice". If this was the end of July, after we had been pursuing other targets, maybe. But not now.

Can you stop telling people to put you on ignore you fucking twat

I admire your commitment to being absolutely fucking wrong about everything.

I've heard he's world class.

Second half the season he lost 14 out of 23 matches, winning just 5. There's no "unbeaten run"

So we just about achieved par then. Someone needs to tell Lighthouse who thinks we achieved some kind of footballing miracle. Amazing how much weaker you think we were against a team we beat home and away and in the biggest match of the season.

Which Championship squad are you prepared to say Martin's was better than that season then?

They did their 95 cup final song so probably.
