Has this been triggered by a 'if NC leaves' clause.

I think Art has elevated NC way beyond his station.

Doesn't this sort of stuff go on all the time at clubs. No big deal really.

You of all people should allow him his right to aire his opinion, he gets asked questions and doesn't hide behind ambiguous replies, he says as he sees it and he is entitled to. As for the stuck record bit, I nearly spat my coffee when I saw it was you.

One of my all time favourites. Happy birthday Danny. Thank you very much Mrs Wallace....

All the northern bastards football league administrators who ignored the best team in the Southern League when they formed the second division with London clubs. It took us until the sixties to get up to the top flight and we are still playing catch up.

There seems to be a competition on here to 'remind' everyone in as many threads as possible just what size club we really are. Deldays has accepted the challange and is currently fighting for first place. Any notions above our station they have to jump on and woe betides any dreamers out there our forum buddies are just waiting to jump on you.

Dont wear a blue tie, unless you want to upset the natives.

My favourite CEO now that Barnard Matthews is dead, is PY Gerbeau, if no him any CEO from a top ten FTSE100 company please.

He will be disappointed with both goals yesterday.

I stopped buying 442 when Robbie Savage ghosted a column, I actually like the guy now he is not playing. I listen to Talksport when there is football in, avoids a live commentary on Fivelive, and some of the evening slots; its alright. Wouldn't go near it in the day in the week, I don't get the appeal of H&J at all.

How is that an answer to my point.

I think you are wrong; players go to and stay at clubs for three reasons; the money is right, the club is showing signs of progression and it suits them personally. Call it the Southampton Way or manager selling the dream or whatever but a club like ours has to communicate our future ambitions; so if the money offered is the same and the either club suits, the player will choose the club with the best prospects. Where would you go if Fulham, Cardiff and Southampton were all offering the same wages. By the way I don't think losing NC is the hole in the hull that some insist it is.

Why? This place is full of mentalists.

I think his comments were fair enough.

Condolences.

Is MP just employing a well used NC tactic of talking to the press to losen the purse strings. As some one already mentioned that football is slowly getting itself in the situation that managers will leave while their stock is high so as to not risk a down turn in fortunes. The lower divs are littered with mangers who where the next big thing; Phil Brown, Alan Little, Aidy Bothroyd, Peter Taylor.

What is so bad here, club doesn't want the players anymore but hasn't managed to sell them, the players don't want to move and drop wages until contract is over. Saints continue to pay players but don't include them in training regime. They could all go tomorrow and carry on their career elsewhere, or am I missing something.

Why do you think that. I would have thought that Planning Permission would be the easiest hurdle to jump.

Maybe not but it does make him a good bloke.

That is Matt Cardle and Holly Willybury.

Same old Saints; some scalps, some poor results, some nice goals for some crap against. A few players short of a decent outfit but still with the fear of losing players. All in all still trying but failing to match our 80's high.

Welcome to the world Olivia. Enjoy Christmas mum and dad.

Thats right, because the only alternative to South Americans is English.

What about AVB to West Ham.
