Lee On Solent Saint

Universally speaking, you could be right.

Because he was with City. These days that's the only thing you need on your CV to work for us.

Even the Russell's I knew at school were bellends.

They need to stop trying to be Manchester City. We are Southampton, an entirely different club, not an extension of City.

Scar tissue mentioned

The team that beat Wednesday was far different to the team that started today.

Just looks pretty disinterested to be honest. I get he might be pissed at not getting his move, but he's a professional footballer. He should have used this year to show what he can do, on this form he isn't getting a move in January back to the Premier.

Agreed. He should be tearing up this league. I was one of those who wanted him to stay, ever since the window has shut he's been appalling.

And the one position we needed a real bit of quality in, striker, we brought a fuckin injured one, who won't be on the pitch until the end of October. We are run by an absolute bunch of amateurs. Even Ruper Lowe wasn't this fuckin clueless.

I'll be amazed if they get rid of him. They gave Jones and Selles far too long, possibly Ralph too. Martin talks about being brave, SR need to be brave and get him out of the club.

Regardless of that fact, he is a professional footballer. Doesn't look to great for him when he goes back to West Ham if that's his attitude.

You don't believe that surely?

That's the kind of question Blackmore needs to ask. Not that he ever will.

How the fuck are we still in this game? They should be at least four up. This is the bottom team in the league, and once again we may the opposition look like Real Madrid.

The comedy value in this team is so impressive. None of the players know what they are doing.

This must be why Burnley didn't go back in for him.

Just so lightweight all over the pitch. Tessem on Solent not holding back.

Just flicked onto the Scottish offering on Sky. Can't work out if there are any Livingston fans there at all. Stands seem full of Celtic fans.

Two all for me. We will be two one up in the last five minutes, they will equalise following (take your pick) giving the balll away.

And he still can't get into the England squad over Phillips.

It's a shame that the local journalists don't engage in tougher questions for him. All too precious about keeping their access etc. Which I get, but it would be good for once if the managers got a harder time. Just seems little point in speaking to the media as it becomes the same regurgitated shit every week.

An embarrassing stat. I wonder how many of them have been home wins?

My reply was intended to be a sarcastic response to certain fans and dare I say management that believe the negative feelings from the stands are to blame for the constant shit that we have to endure. Fuckin calling me a skate because of where I live is bang out of order. I was born in Southampton lived much of my life in Sholing and Thornhill, only moving east due to my now wife living out this way, who incidently is from Southampton too. I don't call our players the names you suggested, but equally I won't just sit there and appauld another backwards or sideways pass.

Am all for us have differing opinions and such like, but seriously this is absolute nonsense. We have had three appalling games in a row. That's not coincidence. It's down to a manager not setting up his team correctly and not getting the best out of what he has.

But arguably then we more incisive and made things happen with or without the ball. It was at the height of Ralphball. We had a clear identity. As a team we knew what we were doing. This lot just look like a bunch of strangers, thrown together on matchdays.
