like the Murphys eh?

cause its not good enough from his armchair in Switzerland!

I think a few people made it from further, Jesus, Suisse, a 200 quid Easy Jet journey to London, a real effort. As for a 2 month old baby, so what? We've all had them mate, the world doesn't stop (unless you are saying you a single parent in which case i would apologetically take it all back) and they dont notice much at that age, lame argument to say the least.

you went to Wembley did you? I don't know but if you didn't then you really are a 'plastic' fan. People like you come on here and **** and moan all the time and don't even go, maybe you are just 'getting a rise' and people like me fall for it?

We have a minutes silence when the mother of an unelected woman who is 'put' at the head of a ridiculous and outdated system called 'the monarchy' dies but when two genuine heroes from 'our' city die trying to save other people the club ignore it. This club isn't just about football, its about the city, when Saints win, Southampton wins, when Southampton loses then Saints lose a bit too.

like fans who dont even go to games eh?

wasnt he in Hi De Hi?

you sure??

I'll be there as will I every saturday, for me its about the team, having a beer with my mate and hoping i get the 1st scorer etc. Dunno, maybe its just a ritual that proper fans just can't get out of, regardless of the results?

So we should have played 4-2-4 for the hell of it, nothing to lose, time to excel blah, blah, blah.... and then if we'd lost (against an in form side TBF) you would have been fine with that would you?

don't go then, if its just about winning God knows why you have stuck with SFC for so long, and if its just about winning then relocate to Salford or west London and if its just about winning then you're supporting the wrong club.

+1, exactly

at what point did he say that?

yeah, he bought it as a business venture, but Saints fans' have outlived every owner/chairman etc since it began, so 'metophorically' speaking, it is our club.

sorry mate, you always need leaders, did you not see Masterchef last night?

not for most of us.....

if only people wouldn't fling their bloody chicken fried rice everywhere, we'd be in the EPL!

from a another post but more valid to this now... Good post, exactly how it was and is now, the question is do e need a group that we can all support. I understand SRS's concerns about The trust and people like Perry and Rich Chorley, its valid especially the ST supporting RL, that was pretty unacceptable by anyone's standards! Though things are going well at the moment they have gone well before, even during the tenure of RL, remember this is not ML's club, its ours and we will always need to be heard by those running it.

yes I was there too mate, at all those and did a few other things to keep the momentum going.. I'm not havin a go at you personally or SRS, i might not agree with what you say, I don't always agree with what NI says, but he's asked and as i said, i don't believe he thinks he's the self confessed voice of Saints fans'. And i am not defending this Silverspoons malarky, I have just met someone who was there and they told me it was terribble, and Nick should sort something out. Its just some people on here clearly have a problem with Ni, it seems personal and most of the comments are perhaps unneccesssary.

well I know how most Saints fans feel about things on the whole, we hated Rupert, we love Markus, we rate AP etc, etc etc, as i said he is asked and he gives and I don't think he clearly defines his views as everyone elses'. And once again, he has a view and thats why the media ring him.

simply not true, of course they didn't get rid of Branfoot but I remember meetings whereby fans were encouraged to attend to show their feelings about how he was ruining our club, and plenty of people turned up. And who organised the red card protests at the infamous Newcastle game? What did you do? In fact what have you ever done to lead a cause? You may well have never been inclined to, which is fair enough but all this griping (in general not neccessarily about Silverspoons) about people who are clearly Saints' fans and on the whole have the club at the heart and most importantly don't just sit behind a computer keyboard under false names etc is really a bit much. I am not having a go at you personally its just the way things are, its called politics, if you have a group, you have a policy and clearly the agenda is to get that policy across and people agree or disagree, but the constant slagging of Nick is a bit much just because bloody Sky Sports rings him, why don't you give them your number?

Personally i can't see the difference in what you say that they were like and your mate SRS who is forever spouting his opinion (usually drivel in my opinion), its just these days we have an internet message forum to do it. No one was ever forced to join SISA or The Trust etc, if you have a group then you have to have an opinion I guess and I never hear any of them say "this is what all saints fan want...." etc, if the Echo or BBC asked you what you thought of AP would you decline to answer because you couldn't speak for all 60,000 + Saints fans?

and what was wrong with SISA? If I remember rightly we were being managed by some incompetent bloke called Branfoot and it was SISA that initiated some eventual resistance to it, don't remember SRS being too involved back then but I may be wrong?

and we have a few that are complete ******s as well...
