I agree they are brainless morons, but so were the Yeovil thugs who got their heads kicked in so it's a bit of a non issue for me. It's a bit hypocritical of the old bill to just stand there watching outside the Alfred, then do nothing to stop it kicking off further up the road (which was quite obvious what was going to happen) and now act like it's a big deal from the safety of their office. A bunch of inept cowards IMO. I've followed Saints and England home and away for years and it is so so easy to avoid trouble, those Yeovil fans were just idiots and would have got a kicking acting like that anywhere in the country.

I couldn't give a ****, Can't remember the last time I posted a letter to anyone. Worst case scenario - my National Geographic is a couple of days late.

I think the Mayans are the last people we should take notice of when it comes to predicting the collapsing of civilisations.

I expect the Yeovil fan who got a good kicking was the same muppet who was giving it large outside the Alfred - in which case he deserved it. It would be harsh for some Saints fan to get banged up for giving some guy the fight he wanted - and for that reason I agree with Romsey Saint, on this occasion don't tell tales.

Same here, it's amazing that only a few months ago we were facing oblivion and the Skates looked like they would be making a push for the Champions League with their new billionaire. Now, if we carry on our current from, there is a slight chance that we could be lining up against them next season in the Championship, us with the billionaire and them in financial meltdown - what a fantastic reversal of fortune that would be.

English League Cup - Round 2 second leg - KO 19:45 Portsmouth 1 (0) - 1(0) Blackburn Nightingale 77 Dunn 88 Blackburn win 5 - 1 on aggregate At Fratton Park on 26-09-2000 Attendance: 2731 They played a Prem team, surely there must be a 1 or 2 missing from the front of that?

I think it's more a case of the retards falling for Saggy Chops' charm offensive last week.

Thedelldays, post no 158, Lowe thread... "anyone who thinks he never did anything good for us at all or refuses to acknowledge that are mindless mongs.."

I don't buy that, money was obviously tight but we brought in plenty of players Wotton, Peckhart, Pulis, Forecast, Smith, Holmes, Robertson etc) and paid decent money for Schnerderlin. There was easily scope for a manager to build a side capable of staying up. Forcing youngsters through, an inexperienced foreign manager, and trying to play total football = the perfect recipe for relegation.

With the right manager we could have stayed up last season no problem, finances were tight but they were for a lot of clubs. If we looked like we were staying up Barclays would not have pulled the plug - they just looked at Lowe's mismanagement and had no other option. Lowe has to be among the worst ever chairman, he made some crazy decisions. Putting Steve Wigley in charge of a Prem team. Appointing Gray after an awful period as caretaker. Appointing a Rugby coach as director of football. Sacking Nigel Pearson and hiring Jan Poortvleit. Appointing Sturrock then sacking him 2 games into a season. Undermining Redknapp with Simon Clifford. Lowe's problem was his arrogance, when we got to Cardiff he thought he knew the lot when fact was we just had a lucky cup run, any team in the top two divisions could have done the same. He fell for the classic football sucker punch of believing his own hype and had the arrogance to think he could play russian roulette with the manager's job and get away with it - that ultimately is why we are where we are now.

Exactly, remember all that "football is my first love" rubbish he came out with. Forget all the sports science spin and the numerous job titles, Lowe was just trying to fast-track him to be manager, everyone knew it, Redknapp and Clifford said as much. If he really wanted to, and thought he could succeed in football he could easily have got a job managing at non league level and worked his way up like most other coaches have to.

You can't take away the fact that Lowe got SMS built, he deserves credit for that. But during the last decade or so virtually every club in the land has either built a new ground or transformed their existing ground - it's not exactly a great achievement, it's just the result of Sky TV's millions and the Tailor report. The single most important fact is that Lowe took over an established well run premier League club and left it bottom the 3rd division, in administration - AND he didn't even do that right.

I think 18 months of getting buggered by leeroy will teach him a lesson.

Its hard to find a worse chairman than Lowe. People mention Risdale, but Lowe did exactly the same, just missed out the Champions League Football bit.

Hats off to Rattlehead for being the World's only Right Wing Libertarian!

Not really, it takes a special sort of w@nker to feed a 3 year old cigarettes, it's one of those cases where a judge made an example as a deterent - for very good reason. I have more respect for muggers and burglers than the ****er who got a 3 year old hooked on fags.

You were never really aware of anything though were you?

BNP are a joke, anyone who makes decisions based on tone of skin is just an idiot. They will never be a serious party. The Muslim problem has arisen because the government pussy foot around them because in general they are so damn defensive about their religion. It's decades since Life of Brian where Christianity had the complete **** taken out of it, yet draw a cartoon of Mohammed and even moderate Muslims are up in arms and extreme ones are dishing out death threats. If anyone needs to learn tolerance it's muslims and Muslim countries, spreading Christianity is still illegal in some Muslim countries, yet the same people are up in arms over someone coming to the UK to just voice an opinion on their religion.

To be fair, if the same paper was saying you had a £50million warchest lined up for January you would be proclaiming it as gospel and cracking one off on here saying I told you so.

Deserves 18 months IMO, he is obviously complete sc*m. I expect he wont even serve half that, some pussy do-gooder will let him out after 4.

It's amazing how the Skates still think they are a bigger club even though we are two leagues below them getting bigger crowds. Sure, a good ground helps attendances but blimey, St Marys is not that good! 17,826 watched pompey take on Tevez, Adebayor, Bellamy 'n' co's Man City in the World's richest, most glamourous league. 19,169 watched bottom of table Southampton play Brentford (including such crowd pullers as Cleveland Taylor, Myles Weston and Danny Foster) in England's 3rd league. It's not even close, I would guess that all things equal, Southampton's support would be 1/4 to 1/3 bigger.

I worked out slightly more facist than Nelson Mandela.

Exactly.

Big difference, all they are doing under the Sheikh is living within their means, we did that for 30 years. And we regularly sold out a 32K stadium whilst suffering the same type of regeme as Mr Sheikh.
