Miss the team bus, Gus

There you go!! You can do it. "Small Steps" eh?

Funny! Stevejo reminds me of Ottery!!

Strange as it may seem, I wasn`t actually talking about you this time! I took your post in that thread exactly in the way that you meant it and have just described. I was actually referring to another poster on this thread who takes the moral high ground when it suits him but will resort to insulting name calling of the worst kind when someone posts something that he doesn`t like. Whilst you have many faults (arrogance, antagonism ) I will say that I have never seen you resort to gutter level language. Take that as a compliment. It`s probably the only one that you`ll get from me!:smt047

Look out for Ye Olde Magyke Rowndabowt.

They`re both called "Brighton"??:confused:

Not quite. Lowe was originally here from (I think) 1996 to 2006. For the first 5 or 6 years of his "reign" there were no major incidents of unrest. Most people just accepted him as a slightly eccentric Chairman who seemed to know what he was doing, and who got on the Board of the FA, giving Saints a higher profile, and who was in charge when we built SMS. Quite a few probably even liked him for his tweaking of Spurs nose with his "North London yobbo`s" dig. The problems started when he seemed to start having too much say into the football side of things, and with the experiments (SCW etc), a season or two before relegation from the Prem. From that point it became the well documented sad downward spiral that we, hopefully, have escaped from. Everyone remembers the last 5 years but forgets the first 5. Also, by coincidence have just found this:- http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/3489097.stm an interesting read from 2004 with this line in it:- "Lowe's treatment of his managers has put at risk the respect he has earned from Southampton fans".

Would tend to agree with this. McGeeee did look better when Wotte played him in a deeper role. I always thought that he was a bit under-rated. Granted he was not the lone-striker that Lowe/JP thought that he was so it`s not exactly his fault if he was played out of position all of the time. He did have a bit of muscle and was quite skillful but he did seem to lack an "engine" which a lone-striker would need.

It didn`t stop the top scorer in the FL joining us though.

Would you like to borrow my username?

Especially when you have certain posters who think that it`s acceptable to call other posters "c*nts" and then try to grab the moral highground over a child calling someone "a skate". Hypocritical or what?

I do hope that it was civil.

Winning 0-4 at Old Trafford, Ron Davies with all four goals. THAT goal against Liverpool. How many passes? Obviously the 6 -3 Man U game. 4-0 win against Olympic Marseilles in Cup Winners Cup.

There`s both?!

Wow! That`s spooky!!

Don`t be silly. That involves having the courage of your convictions.

So not debate then - just argument for arguments sake.

But thats what you want isn`t it - attention?? Well you certainly don`t have a deficit of that on here do you?

Ouch! You really know how to wound don`t you Sundance? I am cut to the very quick.

I always think that it`s a bit like telling people who were not around in the 60`s just how big The Beatles actually were. If you didn`t see MLT regularly, it`s almost impossible to explain just how good he was.

What made you think that Verbal was referring to you??

Someone who could start an argument in an empty room.

Good point. As tomorrow is an evening game could it be 5.00pm?? No doubt someone on here will soon let us know!
