How does that help? They will be aware they've fucked up. They have very little incentive to sell the club at the moment as it would be at a huge loss compared to what has been spent. We are heading towards relegation and the club value will nose dive until we get promoted again. It makes zero sense for them to sell at a huge loss.

Why give him an 18 month contract if that were the case?

I am right. 6 points from 19 games gives us a points per game that would see us on 12 points from 38 games if it continued at the same rate. Of course this is only using points per game, so unlikely to be how it pans out.

On points per game we are heading for 12 points, which beats Derby's 11. 😉

Stephens is injured

Doesn't really work when Messi has not played a single game in the PL or at St Mary's and both Cornet and Onuachu have.

He improved his finishing position in each of the 4 seasons with MK Dons and Swansea. His last two seasons in the top half show he is capable of managing a team above the bottom half of the Championship. I'm not going to deny he was clearly was out of his depth in the Premier League.

His last two Championship seasons were 4th and 10th in a 24 team league.

Yep, plus Saints are benefitting as well for the reasons I listed.

Two is not 'a load'. Plus neither of them cost much. Allows them to get regular gametime in a European league in conditions Sport Republic control and helps with work permits.

Can still be a red without contact. If you throw a punch at another player and they dodge it, it is still a red card.

Playing today is very close to the Boxing day games, so they've given them an extra day to recover.

Happy Saturnalia @Turkish for 2023 & 2024 🎄

Might explain why a move for him didn't go any further... https://x.com/NicoSchira/status/1871305356560699598?t=hh-YhfLoEam0zI6NPeDAcA&s=19

Göztepe are currently 4th in the Turkish Super League and are in a European spot. Shows they can run a club! Hopefully it eventually clicks at Saints! Although Saints fans may say they don't care about Göztepe and Valenciennes. The other clubs doing well has benefits for Saints as the keystone club in the group.

Archer has been ill this week

Is his name Father Jack?

Flawed because 'Football operations' is a regular description in the duties sections of job spec for directors of football roles. And 'Football Mascots'... is not.

My suggestion was you don't understand the definition of irony, like the lyrics of the Alanis Morissette song where nothing she sings about is actually ironic!

'Head of recruitment' Darren Mowbray

How does that meet a definition of irony?

What difference do you think the one extra word makes? Lots of teams have DoFs but they don't all use the exact same job title wording.
