It's not really clear what he means, could well be a pop at the fans but not necessarily.

The club.

I thought I heard that sung! Bizarre, doesn't even make any sense because we don't play at St Mary's every week. It must either mean something sexual or they go and sit in an empty stadium every other week. Dumb ***ts.

He's entitled to his opinion, doesn't make him a moron. In his case he had a point because he proved the ST installment decision wasn't based on admin costs and that turned out to be true because Cortese lated said it was due to people not paying. I don't remember reading a post from anyone who says they want Cortese to go, problem is if you question any of his decisions you get jumped upon. It's just like when a couple of people dared to question Michael Wilde. It's also like the Lowe thing but in reverse. If you dared to say anything good about the rosey-cheeked one you got battered on here.

I don't think anyone hates Cortese. I think you are confusing disagreeing with some of his decisions with hating. I don't think we should have started with Barnard on the bench on Saturday, I don't hate Adkins though.

I fail to see how the choice of picture in the boardroom influences League position. Maybe that's why we did so sh!t under Lowe, it wasn't rubbish managers or selling all our decent players - it was that bloody train picture.

If we are still in touch by April I would expect us to finish 2nd. Now until April we face a tough run of games with 7 being away and only 3 at home. Our run-in from April onwards looks good with 5 home and only 3 away and with the last 3 home games being Bristol Rovers, Hartlepool and Walsall.

Not quite that simple, if Charlton win their games in hand they will be above us. But it is in our hands because we still have to play them twice. Brighton look like they have it won, I predict a straight shoot out between us and Charlton. I'm hoping the Chris Powell revival is just a honeymoon period, if it's not it's going to be a hell of a fight. A Bournemouth v Saints play-off final would be cool though.

RIP, That is so sad. My thoughts go out to his family and friends.

They've got some decent players (Pearce, Pugh, Feeney) plus a bit of a crazy gang spirit being a small squad with their mates as manager & assistant. Plus there is no pressure from their fans or chairman which helps. There is no reason why they cannot keep going until the end of the season but a few injuries would hit them hard. I'm more worried about Charlton, if they win their games in hand they go 2nd.

To be fair I remember when that used to be sung, bit of a retro thing I suppose.

The mongs were even singing Cortese songs - embarrassing

It is one area where teams like Bournemouth have an advantage over us, their players play without the weight of expectation on their shoulders.

It's good that there's no rift between the Ex saints and the club, hopefully we can draw a line underneath all this now and both sides make an effort.

Not a great performance, missed Chaplow big time in the second half but still 3 points - that's all that matters.

It's all about time and resources, look carefully enough in any newspaper you will find typos.

I work in a similar industry, it's easily done, especially when money is tight.

I will be 62 by then so wont give a sh!t.

What a load of crap, this country needs all sorts of workers to function. He pays more back to society because he and his company take much much more out of it. All this "works really really hard" stuff is a load of sh!te as well, millions of people work their asses off, just because he is in a industry that is great at creaming off billions of pounds doesn't make him some sort of hero worker.

That is a completely meaningless statistic because inner city areas are always full of ethnic minorities, and these areas nearly always have higher crime rates (some might say this is not a coincidence).

I don't see what the charity thing has got to do with it anyway, the Saints Foundation won't lose out on a penny if some players turn up at the Mayflower on Sunday. If SFC gave a sh!te about the Saints Foundation the whole team would be there with buckets. Fact is it would be nice for the fans if some players were there, for that reason alone they should have been allowed to go, charity or no charity.

No, Branson has created a lot, a good airline, brand etc, I don't begrudge him earning any of it because he has enriched the lives of millions. I just think the term "wealth creater" is nonsense as there is a finite amount of money, just by grabbing a load for yourself doesn't mean you have created anything. People like Branson & Leibherr have created great things and rightly become wealthy as a result. People who buy some shares then flog them for a profit have not created anything.

Love the design, what a statement of intent.

My mate is a good salesman, he earns more than the PM yet he spends half the week ***ting balls round a golf course, my chippy mate earns less than me yet barely has a day off work. Hard work doesn't necessarily mean more money at all, it's much more to do with how this f*cked up world values your talent/occupation. Brason has created a good busness, good airline etc, all the money he has made has been taken from other people - it's nonsense to say he has created wealth, he has built up a good way of TAKING wealth.

I disagree, someone on minimum wage will pretty much spend all their income on goods, food, services etc, a much higher percentage of their income than someone who earns millions. I was merely responding to the suggestion that we should all be grateful to the super rich because them buying yachts, cars etc keep us in jobs which is nonsense. We all contribute to the economy and as the super rich generally spend less as a percentage, and the fact that all of their money has just been taken from other people, means the opposite is true.
