Dr Who?

Can I have another go?

right thats enough of this guessing for an hour. I am off to drop the kids off at the childminders and then off to work for another day of hoping that a manager will be announced!!

Not really young though!

...or 'the' English Manager?

But do they mean English manager or a manager who manages in the English league?

Branfoot dropping Matty would have sent this board into meltdown as well. It seems that not many people have memories of before the internet!!

Darren Ferguson?

I seem to remember Peter Crouch getting slated for not taking the ball to the corner while we were winning a game in the relegation season, I think against Everton? He desided to take a shot and it went straight to the keeper. The keeper then pumped the ball down the field one bounce and Bent smashed the ball in the net. Now Crouch is a striker and I think that goal was a little more costly on the scale of things. If you look at it as a team they were both at fault and probably two of our best players on their day. Shame as the rest of the game Fonte was really good. No one on here seems to want to blame lambert for anything!

I do think people would have impolded on here at that time, and can you imagine the Ruddock pen in the last minute agsainst Newcastle to win us the game that ended the run. Do you think the Saints Web Forum would have crashed?

I have been thinking about this today as I mentioned that perhaps we could get a very high class of manager. I am pinning all this on when we signed KK out of the blue. What prior to the internet forum would have got you so excited or shocked enough about Southampton Football Club to post on a forum? Or back then write to the Echo!! Mine would have been the sacking of Chris Nicholl as manager after a top 7 finish and then not improving on it the year after with a mid table top flight finish!!! Oh what I would do for that now. What would some of the headlines be on this forum back in time. " Nicholl Sacked or CN sacked" " 21 games without a win!!!!"

I think if there were message boards in the days when we signed KK, many would have said the same thing. My head says no way, but money talks!

Do not agree with this, it was Lamberts lazy pass that led to the counter attack. Stupid ball from a goal scoring chance for us, turned into a goal for them within 10/15 seconds.

You must have left much earlier than me, and I have moved just up the road to meldreth. I left at 11.00 and arrived at 14.30 which is 3 hours. The M25 is bloody terrible at the moment, also queues because of something going on at Duxford took half hour to get down to Royston on the A10!! Then at Winchester services to the M27 West was stacked up. Does not really bother me as need to do the trip a lot as family are down their still, but will be glad when road works are finsihed on that stretch of the M25! Alway worth it if we take the 3 points!!

Sorry I thought you said 2 minutes.

Deppo out!!

Seems to me that everyone in league 1 is having a dodgy start to the season. Win our game in had and will be 3 points from top. Does not sound to bad, and with 2 away games coming up and 6 points then who knows!! Cannot wait for the new manager to be announced, it is going to be a cracker.... here's hoping!

Has to be KK or MoN for me to get excited again, but do not think it will be. my money would be on Zola or Phil Brown.

Also these groups only come up when something happens and a small group of people want to be drama queens. All blows over and then all quiet again. Supporters trying to make a name for themselves. get over yourself. Surely we could have one from this site and just keep it going all year round every year through the bad and the GOOD times??

Ok we sacked our manager and at the moment the team look a little demotivated, but get a new yes man, I mean manager in and we will get it back together again. This is all just a storm in a tea cup at the moment!

It will only be a shambles if.... I have to pay money to them, which I will refuse to pay. It is their error idiots!!

Well it is what the 'newspaper' is based on. At the end of the day these people are wrong, does not matter is they are everyday people or famous, some people get in the situation out of greed, and deserve all they get. All they do is uncover people that are guilty of wrong doing. Now what I do not agree with is made up stories which cost people their livlihood!

Now the Guly part of this, I really would not be suprised if this is what happened. I though oxo as you call him was brilliant, and stood out from the rest by far.

Well you cannot see everything at the game, I know someone was robbed of the ball at the other end of the pitch for the second goal, but id not see who. I was just stunned by the finish. Looks like I got that one wrong. All I remember seeing in the first half down my end was fonte heading ever ball into the box cleared. The first goal did stem from Lambert giving the ball away in their box which then lead to us being short at the back and back peddling. Fonte was in two minds to if he should go to the ball or stand off and keep an eye on the player overlapping on his right. In the end did neither. BUT Lambert gave the ball away in a goal scoring position, and gave it away far top easy which caught us on the hop!
