A bad run of about 30 to 40 years? You complained all through two years of back to back promotions ffs!

Isn't he merely going to watch the game at Old Trafford tonight? It is a season long loan at Nottingham Forest.

It didn't vs Chelsea (2nd half), Everton or Arsenal in recent Premier League games.

That is the formation used for the majority of the time in the period that has seen us only lose 2 games from the last 13 in the Premier League.

I have no problem with that, but your post doesn't make sense as as of yet Pochettino hasn't picked that team. I think most Saints fans would be happy with this... (with the front four rotating during the game as normal, with Lallana to come on in the second half) Boruc Clyne Yoshida Forren Shaw Cork Schneiderlin Puncheon Lambert Ramirez Rodriguez

- Boruc in goal - Back four of Clyne, Yoshida, Forren, Shaw - Schneiderlin and Cork in central midfield - Puncheon, Ramirez, Rodriguez, Lambert as the front four rotating during the game as normal, with Lallana to come on in the second half

Yes it would, Fox in the Premier League (let alone at Old Trafford) is a disaster waiting to happen. He has no pace or positional sense.

Is this worthy of a thread of its own?

If they aren't out of admin by May/June, the Football League won't let them start the 2013/14 season.

Sinclair is playing out wide for the under 21's, he played centrally upfront for the under 18's. Shaw and JWP have the higher potential in FM13.

Are they planning a 2013 remake of this...? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAiWLy6lxVU

Sinclair is playing for the under 21's, like Stephens, Chambers and Reeves are.

Then why not use a centre back from the under 21's or under 18's rather than having 2 keepers on the bench?

Because you might as well make use of having a different outfield option on the bench. 7 subs allows you to cover for 6 outfield areas and 1 keeper. Yes you can only use 3 of the 7, but is useful for exampe to have a specialist centre back and fullbacks on the bench. To have 2 keepers in the 7 subs reduces your outfield options so for example you might be forced to play a centre back at full back.

You said it "shouldn't be near a relegation battle". I asked "Why? It really isn't anything special" because I think it should be near a relegation battle because it isn't that great.

"Pretty simple" what? Why have you put so much emphasis on one goal vs Derby County? Both players have hardly been given a chance, lets not write them off.

Why? It really isn't anything special.

He told you in his post.

You both didn't goto the Tottenham game then? When he game on, played on the right of a 4-2-3-1 system, he turned the game towards us and made a big difference. Tottenham couldn't handle him running down their left. He has hardly been given a chance in terms of game time and starts, he is still only 22 and has a lot of potential imo.

Bialkowski isn't playing, went off injured with concussion in their previous game.

The club have already confirmed they are wearing yellow tomorrow. Southampton FC ‏@SouthamptonFC We've had a few of you ask which kit we'll be wearing at Manchester United tomorrow. We can confirm that Saints will be in yellow! #saintsfc Might not be able to wear white, when Man Utd have white shorts.

Bored now. Anyway, in other unrelated news... http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/ole-gunnar-solskjaer-haunts-liverpool-1561178

It is if you take it out of context and isolate it as you have now done by removing the condition I have already outlined to you that followed it.

As usual, you've taken that out of the context it was written. My point in post #991 was that currently there isn't much difference between the two and in the past I've said if all things were equal in terms of product on the pitch the match going attendance would appear to be similar. Saints currently aren't as an attractive watch as Everton are, yet despite that the averages are similar. If Saints were in a similar position to Everton I would predict based on current attendances (with the two clubs being 5th and 15th) that the averages would be close. Why do you keep taking things out of context? Is it because you have a fixation with the life and work of Roger Hargreaves? Or just to maintain you agenda of within seconds of a post of mine to jump down my throat?
