Nice fishing

Fantastic, well done SFC - proven Premier League goalscorer, perfect!

Aren't they supposed to be contactable 24/7 like all the club's staff though? If so, he was breaking club rules and contractural obligations. Just my hypothesis anyway.

Just seen that, very sad.

This. Except I won't scream, I'll just be p*ssed off.

Maybe he was concentrating on his job?

Ronald is a beautiful man - never doubted him

No way, he was a top bloke, sad news.

Ed Balls

This.

18. Southampton 19. Southampton 20. Southampton We're *that* sh*t according to most posters.

I'm astonished. Genuinely! Oh well, if you're going to "play" for a mid table side, may as well play badly for the bigger named one ...

I'm sorry, but my message to the board - STOP BUYING YOUNG PLAYERS WITH NO PREMIER LEAGUE EXPERIENCE (at least in this transfer window) - there are some decent players available with Premier League experience and players that are British.

Is that true? Brilliant, I like him even more; "sorry lads, enjoy your bog standard chicken and pasta lunch, I'm having a 3 course meal in the corner on my own"

At the moment, I couldn't give a f**k about that in all honesty. We already seem to have a couple of dodgy players in that department. What we need is proven Premier League quality, Shelvey and Austin would both be perfect to come in, bang some goals in and maybe help us finish top 10 again - the extra £m for higher placed finishes is worth it. You never know, they may also find their "spiritual homes" and stay forever and be perfect angels ...

No it bloody hasn't. Unless you support Spurs or Leicester. If you're going to write an article and spam football forums with your articles, at least have the bloody grace to say "hey, I wrote a blog, do you agree with the content?"

No, to be fair, Liverpool are just hilarious! EVERY year since Graham Souness was manager, I've had people who claim to support them tell me that "next year is our year once our youngsters bed in"

I'm looking for the fishing emoticon, but there isn't one, grrr.

I don't get the universal hate for Man Utd, they're a quality club, the biggest in the world (still) and him going there will do them wonders. They're an unfit (comparatively), disorganised mob and I'm pretty sure he'd get them winning stuff again for everyone to hate more.

This.

I'm not a "sack the manager" type, but you're totally right with that statement - most other clubs would have the P45 ready for that kind of record. I'd still rather we kept him though, we just need a bloody striker who can take the chances. Yet again, had we taken some of those chances, we'd have won. Yet again.

I bet you that he wouldn't have.

£71? Ridiculous and obscene. If ever there was a match to boycott properly, that would be it. £71 on top of a season ticket, cup tickets etc., ridiculous.

Jesus. It's the FA Cup! What's the point in supporting a team if you don't want a cup run? "I'm not that bothered" [about the FA Cup], seems to be mantra of the dull, modern fan.
