Who is "ignoring their customers the whole time"? It's certainly not regular SFC interview participant Les Reed, who appears on YouTube more than Zoella, so who are you referring to?

This has the makings of an epic thread. It's like the "follow the guord/follow the shoe" scene from Life Of Brian.

Who is advocating that, then?

Stop ruining it.

The three managers bit was brilliant though. Les, you minx.

Would have preferred that didn't happen. Better to say nothing until it's done. Almost pandering to the loons on this forum there, Leslie.

His quote was about us selling players, not about who we replaced them with.

I have never said I don't do that. It's only about the twelfth time I've tried to explain that to you, but you are an imbecile, so I guess not surprising.

So when Mark Chapman on Radio 5 was talking about comparing Sevilla to Southampton what he was actually thinking about was the time we sold Richard Hall to West Ham and had Mickey Evans up front? Right you are then.

Who are all of these managers of ours that have been "*#*#ed off" and left then? Must be one hell of a list. It's British Summer Time, and it's dinlow season.

They have never had a referendum to stay or leave. I'm glad you've picked Norway as one of your model countries as they are pretty much the direct opposite of the things you want - higher immigration than us, part of the Schengen area, pay into the EU and swallow EU legislation with no say at all. I was surprised as you to see that Norway aren't building a brand new hospital every single day like we'll be able to do when we get our £350m a day back to spend on whatever our heart desires.

I don't remember him being scathing about our policy of promoting youth. His famous quote was basically about us selling off multiple players during that golden summer of meltdown. Not really sure how anything he's said there is particularly hypocritical. He's taken at least two steps back into a league and a club that are skint, so bigging up the virtues of promoting from within is basically his only option.

I find it highly unlikely that VVD and Forster have signed new, incredibly long contract extensions for less than we were paying Gaston Ramirez.

Quite right. Entirely possible they could be talking about a "new stadium curse" come November. WHU are as capable of finishing 16th as finishing 6th, just like plenty of other clubs. Like us. Let's not crown them the great new megaclub just yet.

I read it once and it does say that, pretty clearly. You don't have to believe it, I don't, but it is there.

We're doing that now anyway.

Are you saying we had "fck all" money up to now?

Not really, happy to quote your entire post. Here it is. ...it's total drivel, start to finish. Question remains - are we doing well then, or not?

There's no way Sven would have picked a Southampton full back for an international tournament squad, is there? Oh.

I was agreeing with you in the first place.

Finally, finally, finally we can sell Long to reinvest.

And dish out news whether it is bad or good, and quite often it us good, which is hardly "stirring it up".

Not really. That's up there with Spurs and Hammers as nicknames fans actually call their team by all the time.

Stoke strengthening yet again. We haven't got a hope next season.

Did we "start over" last summer? I'd suggest their were more levels of upheaval during, say, Adkins second summer.
