Could barely watch due to ineptitude of the keeper and tactical naivety of the manager. Why not change it when 2 up? Why play Davis? Why bring on Dickson (two players with very recent cock-ups to their name). Shocking pen decision at the end made me throw my computer against the wall. No chance of automatic with such weak links in the side.

Are you Davis' Dad?

wrong. Davis and Davis. He's pants.

It's been time to drop this poor excuse for a keeper for seasons. He's going to bugger up the promotion bid, which is why I thought it most odd we didn't get someone who can dominate his six yard box etc in the transfer window. Davis is terrible.

Ooh what a surprise. David beaten easily at the near post and then beaten because he doesn't come for a cross three yards off his goal line. He is absolute turd.

Has Bradley nicked all the money from the changing rooms?

Chappers - good against Man U. Diabolical against Tranmere.

should have got a keeper in. otherwise all good.

Looks like OxO is staying. Sort of a bit of a shame in that it could have funded our promotion push. Pleased and disappointed at the same time.

After the way he played last week Dixon of Dock Green would be better. He's hopeless!

4-0 United. Especially if they just cotton on to the fact that our keeper can't do anything near the six yard box.

posted in the other thread too but so angry am cutting and pasting here: Barmard would have got a penalty if his dive was slightly more subtle. That's the ludicrous nature of the 'no penalty without bloke falling over' game we watch these days. There was contact, it was a pen in my view, but because he made just slightly a meal of it, no pen. Plus that ref was an absolute homer, with almost every decision going their way. First time I've seen Saints in the flesh this season, I admit, but what a load of rubbish. Was expecting a lot of Chappers in the middle to run the game. He looked disinterested. Was expecting a lot of Chamberlain. But he just looked like he was avoiding injury (proved correct). Was expecting Davis to do another horrible cock-up because he is scared of coming off his line ever. Got that one right. But the worst thing was how disinterested everyone looked - and how abysmal our number 2, Richardson is. Can't run. Can't tackle. Can't pass. Can't head. Not a good combo. Why is he a professional footballer? Please get rid. Jaidi couldn't pass to anyone, Schneiderlin didn't get involved. Lambert looks too fat and slow. The only player who looked half decent was Fonte, head and shoulders above everyone else. Barnard was alright when he came on. Best to sell Chamberlain and spend on new keeper, right back, and central midfielder. We're way off promotion on this display.

Stupid capitilisation

Why don't we get cover for him anyway? It's not as if he will be here beyond the summer anyway, contract or no contract.

er...why isn't it showing then?

Hurrah - many thanks!

There used to be a thread on this but can't find it any more. Just enquiring why the Blackpool FA Cup game has not so far been included in people's results - other FA Cup games were. And I got it right so want my 10 points! Pretty please?

Batman: 'Will you just LOOK what supporting you miserable lot has done to young Joe Cole here. It's put decades on the poor lad.'

Good news. Lifts his transfer price too - everyone wins, us (even if only for a bit), the player, the agent, and then us again if someone comes in for him with big bucks.

player plays well. scores goals. clubs want him. rumours abound. saints fans wonder if one of the clubs is us. get excited. post discussion board about how we're 'closing in' on said player. fan texts player's mate. publishes it. it's inconclusive anyway. other bigger clubs swooping in. rumour fizzling out. Just thought I'd post a summary to save everybody else time.

heh heh

Hands off, Mr Pardew

Great bit of business
