Saint Garrett

It says 'for many seasons'. To me thats probably why we were in the lower leagues therefore less shirts sold in general. I actually don't mind the white kit, but still think it's a pointless away kit. They're just trying to sell more shirts and by making it our home kit for the FA Cup, it'll get a bit more spotlight.

The only comments where Nigel has said he hopes to have him back for Sunday are those made after the Reading game before he'd been assessed. If the Vman has stated that it's 'f*cking bad but not season ending'...then a few months would probably be about right.

Fonte for captain. He's been fantastic last few months. Although it's not ideal losing Adam for a few months, there are quite a few games which are 'free hits' so to speak in that time. Hopefully he'll be back buzzing for the run in and our 'must win' games against teams around us.

Was quite odd at Liverpool, people when normally everyone sings 'come on you reds' i.e. corner/free kick/or spontaneously, that subconciously didnt happen and i actually feel the atmosphere from our fans was worse because of it. Atleast when we're in yellow we can chant YEELLOOOWWWSSS. Come on you Saints will have to do I think.

We've registered our away hit as our 'home' FA Cup kit. Sounds like the club have realised they *****ed up!

For as long as NC sees constant improvement in a style which he is demanding, there is no reason why Nigel would get the boot. Ok if we're still making the same fundamental errors which we made at the start of the year at the end of the season, then maybe there is a case. But if we stay up, playing football which is good to watch, and developing the young players, Nigel will have done a fantastic job IMO.

Of course a successful season would be staying up...

He is a very handy player for League 1, be fair to him. He could do a job for plenty of NPC teams as well. His workrate is second to none.

http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/10104367.Barnard_gives_Cherries_boss_a_difficult_dilemma/ Looks like Bournemouth might cancel his contract in January...

About time for Falque on loan?!

Did Exeter wear them when we played them in the league? Seem to remember they played in black for some reason...

It's still a dodgy system, as with me and my dad being linked, if i go online then I can order as many tickets as I want to under his name but under mine I can only get 1 on my ST. For example, when Fulham went on sale I could have got something like 11 tickets or something on the first day of sale, 1, under my name and 10 under his.

No, I agree he isn't good enough to be a 'starter' in the Premiership. But why does that make it alright to basically get treated like sh!t because he comes on and actually does a very good job when he has come on as sub?!

I see him as a 'no 10', or he'll do a job on either wing the way we play with narrow wide men.

Surprised people can't see that Davis is always in the 18 squad. I don't think it's a case of Boruc being 'nowhere near' I think its more of what Davis brings to the dressing room as club captain. If Gazza is no1, then Davis is on the bench. If Boruc is in goal, then Davis is on the bench. When Davis has played either of Gazza or Boruc have been on the bench.

He's barely played ?! Harsh. I'd be interested to see how many assists he's got in that time. At the end of the day, he's not a striker is he. Ok yes he probably should have scored a couple more, but when he's not in the team consistently playing in the same position, it's tough on him.

Thing is he works very hard and closes down very well, just he doesn't put in rash challenges. You're probably right in that if he picked up a few yellow cards for horror sliding tackles, he'd probably be liked a bit more. But because he channels and shadows the player, peoplem call him lazy, ludicris.

I jsut don't understand the hate for Guly. He's nowhere near as bad as some of our fans make out. He rarely lets us down, and played a key part in our promotions. His Bristol Rovers (h) performance stands out hugely to me. Like Chris says, you don't have to like him, but atleast appreciate the part he has played and the part he is currently playing.

Biglia was linked with Us, Norwich and West Ham in the summer, think he is 'getable' if we want him and have the money.

Be interesting to see how many players we've been linked with and by who and how many actually happen...Have had to shrink links to fit more in the post...

Theyre a side with a decent amount of quality who are underperforming. Johnson, Sessegnon, Fletcher, Mclean, Gardner are all handy players. Will cause us problems, I'm very surprised how badly they've done. Just hope we can edge it out.

Wakey Wakey!! Lallana is injured and will be for the forseeable!

No thanks, he'll just miss the Man Utd game on Saturday and rested for ours !

Bardsley off injured....
