What is the point in spending £19mill on a new striker then playing Long on his own up front? Something is really ****ed up at our club.

**** me we are ****

Awful, considering this is what was fed to the press after VVD sale: "The structure and timing of the transfer reflects Southampton’s desire to now make major signings of their own and they are committed to reinvesting the entire fee. They hope to add an attacking player next week and are also lining up other deals."

Of course sacking Puel and hiring the clown was a **** up - what a stupid thread.

Yeah, because wasting a whole month trying to get two targets we couldn't get is a great performance from our DOF.

It's just bull**** excuses, surely we have other targets not just Promes?

If that's our window done then we are ****ed.

Think they have left it too late now, not sure if anyone with a decent CV would want the job if our situation gets any worse.

Think we need to accept that we are not going to get value for money. We've just sold a player for £75mill and are staring relegation in the face - we're going to get fleeced whoever we buy. No point being tight fisted and end up relegated.

I'm sure the magical black box has a long list of other targets we could get?

Wasn't our previous record buys Gordon Watson then David Hurst?

I expect it is meeting the release fee that is the problem.

Think that’s spot on about the press, they are just becoming an irrelevance now to younger generations and their attempts at smearing Corbyn have just been comical. I don’t even get why people buy ‘news’ that is so obviously biased.

Compared to what we have now it is.

Sounds like bad management to me, Puel's football was dull but he got results.

It's crazy we have let ourselves get into this situation, I really think it's win or were ****ed Wednesday. What happens if we lose our next two - sack the manager after he has just spent £19mill on one of his mates and get a manager in just after the transfer window has ended. The list of managers who would want the job is going down by the day and the chance they have to do much about it ends this Wednesday night - cheers Les.

I can't believe Target is on 50K a week.

True, virtually everyone thought it was a good deal. But flogging him and replacing him with no one was obviously going to weaken the squad. A squad that struggled massively to score.

If we lose this I can’t see how Pellegrino can keep his job, though he probably will. Given our tough run in a defeat will leave us in a desperate position.

I think it is working fine. In theory it should help clubs like us get decisions at the big clubs.

If you don’t believe what he says you could just ignore it, not be a ***t? I have occasionally had bits of ITK info in the past and got similar treatment - it’s pathetic. Unless someone is sleeping with Les Reed or best mates with Mr Gao this sort of info always has an element of Chinese whispers about it. He may have a good source at the club who has heard the info second or third hand, or he could have been bull****ted to himself by someone at the club. Either way it’s pointless and sad to rip anyone to pieces. I guess it’s the norm nowadays for this mong board generation.

The most mental thing I have read on here since JWP is going to be the next Lampard.

I guess that means our genius manager is not going anywhere. Probably too late to sack now anyway, just have to hope Les knows what he’s doing.

Thank **** for that.

Mane was slated by the mongs on here, doesn't mean anything.
