Most-watched premier league team in Southampton...?
Shroppie replied to trousers's topic in The Saints
Don't Sky specialise in meaningless statistics and rumours designed to encourage bets on things that probably won't happen? And these "statistics" justify the games they choose. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk -

There are probably 4 Sky subscribers in the Outer Hebrides of whom only one has ever watched a football game, and it happened to be Leicester. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk -

This. You can only watch what Sky put in front of you! Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk -
Peter Allis is still a breath of fresh air compared with the bog standard Sky commentator. Yes, he may come out with the occasional faux pas, but his insight and background comments make him, IMO, far more interesting. What's wrong with the occasional jokey comment? It's only the sort of things spectators ate saying to each other, after all. Suspect he may now retire and, as with Murray Walker, I'll be sad to see him go. Golf commentary will never be the same again. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Hope you're right but wouldn't be surprised to see Morgan behind Carrick in the pecking order. Manure have a strange loyalty to players, no matter how bad. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk -

Agreed. I've seen Clasie on TV and wasn't that impressed - more another Davis IMO. Reed may develop into the role, but wishing at the monent that we still had Cork. Agree too about CB. Hope we're not thinking that Fonte, Gardos and Yoshida will do! Interesting that we're reported as asking for Chambers back on loan. On his form of 2 yrs ago not a bad call, but he doesn't seem keen. Deluded if he thinks he'll be starting any time soon at Arsenal. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk -
Svenclaes earlier tweeted Toby to Spurs done deal, so yes, wishful thinking. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

And an interesting question. Which took precedence, the right to buy or AM 's right to cancel? If the latter, maybe Saints thought the best approach was to let it expire, then try to pay €6.8m. Failing that, have to compete on the open market. A mess. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Seems feasible. And now we're trying to somehow retrieve the situation. And I agree losing Toby would be a serious enough thing to prompt the severance. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
