Bucks Saint

A truly laughable debut "expert" column. Take a long hard look in the mirror Glenn

Southampton Super Soccerball Saints Covers all the global marketing angles plus means a ton of revenue for the club printing flags by the letter

1) Rory Delap would be decent 2) Strachan??? NOOOO 3) Craig Maskell was a trier 4) Rupert Lowe was not all that bad, after he phoned me once 5) [best one] Shouting "this is no Fcking time to be sentimental" when MLT came on as a sub in the last game at the Dell....

When we go top of the league

Wonderful memories. For modern games it was increasingly tight, cramped, outdated, some restricted views, uncomfortable, with terrible facilities - but was in a class of its own for home-advantage-atmosphere, especially at night. In terms of the actual ground itself, I was usually under the East Stand and loved it, except when we scored three goals in the last 5 minutes and I cut my head open on the stand above during my celebrations. Dont get those days anymore...

Boruc 1st. Shaw 2nd if he plays Fox. Not if Clyne and Chambers cover. Lovren 2nd if not. Lallana 3rd

But he took a glance (as all players should, and usually do), and saw the Hull player behind him, so it was madness not to control the ball immediately

Very interesting thanks. A major gap to Villa below and to Chelsea, 2 above. Lets see how current season compares!

What secrets? We invest in the youth teams and the training facility, and put a lot of effort into getting it right? Dont think Wikileaks will be getting too excited yet

Really hoped he would get a goal, think he will be excellent once he gets one or two more. Great movement when he came on

Very very proud.

Thanks for the sensible, informative post, its appreciated

That seals it, I am going to sit in the away end in future, seeing as its going to be so plush.

In the home end it is then.

Why? I did not say that. Was responding to nonsense suggestion that the Club bought him knowing it would take 2 years for him to settle in.

Double post. On the beers even this early

Breaking news: not every player acquired works out exactly as hoped. Some do better, some adjust quicker, some take longer, some dont work out at all. We did not buy knowing full well it would take 2 years for him to settle. The fact that it is taking longer than we wanted does automatically mean we should give up

Very much this. Not at all costs of course, but it is a good chance of a trophy

Very much this

Top quality goal yesterday. Not sure Brett could have done that! But loved him all the same

This season form has been much better since first few games. Palace and Fulham clear examples

Not Norwich. Martin O'Neill will be rescuing them. Palace. Sunderland. W Ham (hopefully) but Cardiff (more likely)

Mutual love in.

The eventual destination for us all

May need some on the bench with decent neck muscles, to come on in the 2nd half for the fatigued sky watchers
