Think you will find it was not me that resorted to petty personal insults. All I did was ask questions.

Sex on a beach?

A team with players of the quality of Man Utd at the time collapsing 5-0 and 6-3 a week later is comparable to us losing 9-0. Keane played the second game and led by example by getting sent off!

A question is not a row.

Stop twisting my words. I did not say it was a good time for football, I was asking why it is a bad time. Those two things are not the same. -
You made a claim they are simple, it is not unreasonable to ask what would count as complicated!? Have you seen our training pitches in a recent club video? They are covered in extra lines for the different roles, pressing triggers and situations we use. That is far from simple.
-
Roy Keane played in a team that lost 6-3 to Saints a league game after his club lost 5-0 the game before. He got himself sent off for being too aggresive, so hardly a great leadership!
-
This is about JWP, you think his role is simple. I was explaining how it isn't. And asked if his role is simple what players or teams you think use complicated roles?
-
He played for better teams than us, so comparison falls down.
-
If you think it is Hasenhuttl's tactics with multiple pressing triggers and switches depending on circumstances as they change during games are simple, what team do you consider to have a complicated system?
-
I did not say it involved shouting. In any case he is clearly vocal. Just because he sounds like a choir boy in interviews it doesn't make him a bad captain.
-
It isn't a simple system in the slightest. It is tactically intricate with a large range of pressing triggers and plays in different situations.
-
What do you think a captain should do, and how do you know Ward-Prowse isn't doing it? This isn't the 1980s where a captain simply needed to shout the loudest!

It isn't unreasonable to ask a question after someone makes a statement. Otherwise conversation would be only a flow of one way statements. Sunday evening is a great time for TV audiences. Shows get decent viewing figures in those timeslots. -

That is not remotely relevant to my question about Sunday evening games. Why is that kick off time an issue to fans in general outside of individual commitments? -
Why would Walcott and his agent agree to that?

Why? What difference does it being on Sunday evening make? -

What is wrong with the kick off being that time? -
As Waylander mentioned above, he has played for Saints in the FA Cup... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55766734

How have you worked that out? We have a far more valuable playing squad, stadium and training ground. What indication is there that their long term future is better than ours? Pompey have achieved nothing under his ownership. They are stagnating in the 3rd tier. If they were ever to be promoted it would be difficult to see them face anything other than a relegation battle back to League One. Saints lacking investment in the PL id far better than Pompey lacking investment in L1 with shoddy infrastructure! -
Nope, I was pointing out it isn't exactly the same as was claimed and is not a relevant comparison.
-
Strange use of exact. The comparison is deeply flawed.
