  1. The BBC had pretty decent viewing figures for Wigan v Man City on Monday night. Around 6 million, I read earlier this week. Questionably many of them may have switched it on expecting to see Eastenders, but I think they got a better viewing audience than they would have done from screening the game on a Sunday lunchtime.

     

    Could come into the equation.

  2. It was fairly obvious from the start of the window that in our predicament we would not be making any permanent signings. Due to a combination of factors of a lack of players wanting to join us (partly due to uncertainty about who the manager would be), Saints not wanting to be fleeced by selling clubs knowing we have cash, and Saints being unwilling to commit to lengthy expensive contracts given our likely relegation.

     

    It will be two or three loan signings at most. To expect any more than this is highly unrealistic.

  3. He is the slowest quick player I've ever seen. In the side seemingly for his pace, yet he just slows it all down.

     

    Does he actually have pace, or is it just a myth? If he doesn't have pace then he probably shouldn't be a professional footballer as I'm not sure what else he has.

     

    Redmond is deceptively slow.

  4. Really disappointed in how Pellegrino has turned out. I'm struggling to think of anyone capable of turning this around if he's sacked.

     

    It's very similar to the downfall after Strachan.

     

    Allardyce’s feat in keeping Sunderland up is a big tick on his CV when you consider where they are now with much the same team.

  5. Go to the App Store and get GSE IPTV read the install guide and make sure you use the password in the confirmation email you received from them and not the one you signed up with ( like I did !) it’s pretty easy and that from a non techy

    Thanks a lot!!

  6. Merson isn't employed by Sky Sports for his football knowledge. He is there as a jester and figure of fun. Two large companies use me for my knowledge of Saints & football in genral. They don't use me as a figure of fun on an afternoon sports results programme, I'm paid for Saints knowledge by one of them and they both wouldn't bother if they didn't think I knew what I was talking about. I know some on this forum disagree with lots of the things I say, but many don't.

     

    Seriously, two large companies using the Comical Ali of football message boards for an insight into football.

     

    I've heard it all now. Even funnier than Rod Stewart doing the Scottish Cup draw on Sunday.

  7. I honestly think most of the modern day players (premiership) do not care about their own supporters. They are so far removed from most of us who travel to places like Prague and spend a decent amount of time and money. Not really a booer myself but did shout a few obscenities last night as was really disappointed with the team and their effort.

     

    Agreed.

     

    Most players have never been regular match-attending fans, mainly as they have been playing 3 or 4 games a week from a fairly young age, so they can't relate to what fans go through to go to games (including the whole charade of trying to get tickets in the first place...). I think that many players think of fans in a similar way to how they view the press, ie a necessary evil.
