And if we leave, everything will be simply brilliant forever.

Can Saints or West Ham manage to gate crash the top 4 at man Citys expense?
CB Fry replied to Saint IQ's topic in The Saints
Les Reed doesn't peddle a fantasy. One just needs to listen to what he says every single time he talks about the subject. Every single time. Every single time. -
Labour trying to move the date will look ridiculous, and frankly the shower of sh it running the party couldn't organise that anyway. They all hate the SNP so no one is going to give them what they want.

Equaliser puts them back at joint top.

Be fair - George Galloway did not campaign with Cameron, or as part of the Better Together movement, so he never did anything that "the establishment" was "comfortable" with. They happened to be on the same side but at more than arms length from each other. The Out campaign will be more passionate bordering on "loons", the In campaign will be more pragmatic bordering on "uninspiring/boring". It's a tightrope for both campaigns.

We are doing that.

Who has said he is an "avid fan" or a "super fan"? And obviously he is "showing an interest because of family connections", clearly the son of a billionaire from Switzerland is not out of nowhere going to randomly select Saints to support. The Leibherrs might sell in the next five years, or they might end up owning the club through the family line for the next fifty. Right now, that feels like no bad thing.

Don't rule out a movement not dissimilar to "The 45%" from Scotland made up of the losing side. And the SNP have done okay since. The referendum won't really finish anything.

I think I can see a future for the club without Victor Wanyama. I'm unconvinced that any genuine CL level club would want him. So he's got to hope Spurs are in for him.

The Grassroots Out campaign is wheeling out Farage, Peter Bone, George Galloway giving barnstorming speeches to batty old women in Union Jack top hats. And what lovely lime green ties. It was never really in doubt for me. I'm in, in, in.

I'd missed that news. This is precisely what this thread needs. A fourth tier Southern club rising like a Phoenix through the divisions, maybe in the Championship in the next five years playing in a brand new stadium. The fact that it is the club where Rickie Lambert made his name makes it even sweeter. Come on The Gas!

This. It is of no benefit to us whatsoever if Leicester win the league. I quite like them, and I know some Leicester fans but really doesn't matter if they win it or not. If I could pick I think I would rather Arsenal won it.

If it does, we'll be unbeaten for 18 straight Premier League games, we'll finish on 72 points, probably finishing third and qualifying for the group stages of the Champions League. Not really sure that suggesting we won't do that is particularly controversial but you gotta love this forum. -
How does that benefit Saints or Saints fans?

....with half the team made up from academy players, remember. -
Holloway was Leicester manager for about five minutes and is hated by pretty much everyone there. He may be a nobhead but he's not Leicester's nobhead.

I'm not sure you ever read anything Turkish writes. -

1. I'm not sure you ever read anything Turkish writes. He's already clearly outlined who he was taking the p** out of and why. Try reading it again. And has now been said to you repeatedly, no one has ever said we would never make the Champions League. As Leicester are proving, it can be done. 2. We already know the owners plans about expanding. We've been told. We are not expanding the stadium any time soon, there is no business case to do so, as many of us said many times over in the last five years. If in five years time we have a brand new owner and a they announce we will do it then I am sure you will be back on this forum pretending that "people said we would never expand the stadium". So that's something for you to look forward to, ain't it? -

Oh dear. Someone else who "doesn't know their football". -

So broadcasters in Laos are walking away from a potential Premier League TV deal because they might have to broadcast QPR v Burnley one day on Laos Megasport Channel 7HD? Or, are all of those many, many games played at 20k stadiums utterly irrelevant to Premier League TV deals worldwide as have been proved for, oh I don't know, more than a decade? Still have no idea how any of this gets you to us expanding our ground though. -

Arf. Great use of percentages and moving the goal posts to the very snappy 28,400. 2 or 3 clubs a season, with at least one usually going back down, and none of which are of any particular interest to "broadcasters in Laos". In other news, SFC have a capacity higher than the globally recognised standard capacity measure of 28,400. So what's your point again? -

Why would Premier League matches be played in 20k capacity stadiums? Barely any have been in the last ten-fifteen years and, unless you are expecting City, United, Arsenal and the rest to be relegated and replaced by Swindon and Barnsley, I don't see how many will in the future. -
Kane needs to score twice in every single warm up game to keep Rooney out of the side. Probably Vardy and Kane need to score twice each.
-
Do we really have the players to do well? No doubt the likes of Barkley and Dier are only one tournament campaign away from being generally regarded as a waste of space and why don't we pick XXX instead. And so it goes on. Will be happy if we make the quarters.

Interesting you don't consider 8th, 7th and Europa qualification and then 6th to 9th again as "a modicum of success". I'd say, for us, it is. Clubs don't outlay millions and millions of capital on stadium expansion on the off chance they might win a cup, and no sensible football club would commit those same millions on the rationale that "other clubs might not fill theirs". Keep trying. Meanwhile, the management of our football club ruled out any expansion in the foreseeable future some time ago. Oh well.
