Matthew Le Tissier knows Matthew Le Tissier. The opinions are bound to be to an extreme.

The only thing this argument shows is that we have players playing out of their depth. Sod the stupid arguments. After two consecutive promotions that surely cannot be a surprise.

The cornered animal.

Not performing so far. If we can get out of second gear in the final 45 we can salvage something.

This would be the 'Kitchen Sink' approach?Bring it on!!

A compensation figure of £1.2 million being mooted by Sky Sports News. Blackpool must be f**king mad.

I'm in no way saying that relegation would be conclusive to financial progress, but through buying young talents they have a far better resale value. It's astonishing to think that Steven Fletcher cost Sunderland 14 million pounds. Following on from relegation we were only in the 'deep sh*t' when Michael Wilde sanctioned Burley's multi-million pounds worth of player purchases. Rupert Lowe's prudence would have stiffled us on the pitch, but the club wouldn't have been put into anything like the risk it was.

Was it you chuckles?

This will be an entertaining open game. We will score, the return of Ramirez will see to that and I would expect Lambert to start up front. Now, can we avoid leaking in our usual manner? 2-2. My team: --------------- Lambert -------------- Lallana -------- Ramirez ------- Mayuka ------- Davis ------ Schneiderlin ------ Fox ----- Yoshida ---- Fonte ---- Clyne ---------------- Boruc ---------------

It paid off to buy it last year, when it was. We will may be wearing the white kit at Norwich. No white in their yellow and green, but red would be far more distinctive.

Within Southampton FC. The shop guys wouldn't clarify who the decision maker is.

Talking to the guys in the shop last week. Red. Incidentally it looks as though we will not be wearing the white kit for any more then one game. If socks or shorts clash the entire kit must be changed...... due to an edict from on high which states that the all red and all white kits must remain exactly that. - No mix and match white shorts/socks to red shirts. Madness.

A key point. There is no doubt in my mind that both Clyne and Ramirez will at least hold their value, if relegation occurs and Matt Jarvis can go for a fee of £7.5 mil upwards, we will get our money back on Gaston. Clyne should be worth even more, was an absolute bargain. Rodriguez may be the exception to this but in the championship he would be a key player and I wouldn't expect him to hand in a transfer request. The only player who will probably lose value in the short term is Rickie Lambert, that is purely due to his age. We havn't sunk our money into journeymen with no resale value (like QPR and the Skates).

Quite amused to see that Barbie Girl outsold Believe by Cher. Resonates with my teenage years.

Boney M. Dear god......

No, there are similarities. The scale is however so different to render them meaningless. It's also a wonderful admission of how small-time they are.

Regardless, he is not a defender. There truly is only one area we need to focus on in January. We are ok going forward and in the centre....

Explain.

Don't let facts get in the way of a perfectly good rant. It's internet law.

We don't need him.

R*dkn*pp in sh*te with money shocker....

Innocent until proven guilty. Even though there is no other possibility.

The questions therefore have to be: How much clarity will we have? (I personally assume none...) How much do you trust him? (The man who introduced Markus Liebherr to Saints, oversaw consecutive promotions and has our ongoing ambitions at heart, actually, come to mention it.....) What is Nicola Cortese's motivation here? (Generally, why is this banker in charge? Markus' wishes? Why stay? Why continue? What does he have to gain? Why take this challenge?)

When you put it like that......

No, must have missed that.
