Have you considered it is because they've been brainwashed and/or pressured through fear in Ohio and not in California?

@Turkish is this you...? Looking dapper on your day trip out!

A Southampton supporter is a supporter of the club. Makes sense that they give support and encouragement to the players and not onrs like that Rory Delap chant I was responding to! Why do fans need to give other fans support and encouragement on an internet forum that is intended for discussions?

Why do other posters need support and encouragement?

Not a great way to support the players and give them encouragement.

Are you joking or serious? Give a 16 year old 1st year scholar the 1st team squad number that is the most iconic number at the club to convince him to stay? I'm not sure that is a precedent the club should be setting, nor do I think it would work as if he leaves it'll be because of money and a 1st team squad number doesn't really matter much.

He wears 8 and plays in the 'number 8' role. Makes sense for that to continue.

Traditions change. Our original kit was not stripes, it doesn't always need to be stripes.

Didn't wear stripes at the start of the club and didn't wear thick stripes in their most successful decade of league football.

Signing... Tommy Forecast Anthony Pulis Lee Molyneux Ryan Smith Jordan Robertson Alex Pearce Jan-Paul Saeijs Zoltán Lipták Romain Gasmi Tomáš Pekhart Is not remotely the same as signing players Chelsea and Man City want to keep but can't offer immediate game time to. Livramento and Broja last season although young were good enough to go straight into a Premier League team and perform to a very high level. I wouldn't rule out Bazunu, Bella-Kotchap and other young players we sign doing the same next season.

Our keepers must have been doing something right in 2014/15! Only 33 goals conceded in 38 Premier League games. Saints were 2nd in defensive record behind Chelsea who conceded only one less at 32 goals. You dismissing that as... they had Alderweireld, Fonte, Schneiderlin and Wanyama in front of them still wouldn't see an awful keeper have the 2nd best record in the league! Our defence wasn't impregnable that season to the extent the keeper didn't need to do anything, Fraser Forster did a lot better than 'awful'! Same the following season for our keepers in 2015/16... only 41 goals conceded in 38 PL games. Sure a very good defensive unit in front helps. But an 'awful' keeper behind a very good defence still concedes a lot of goals.

If David Blaine can confuse people in the 21st century, imagine what sleight of hand would do to bronze age farmers...

It isn't remotely similar. The quality level of the youngsters they are signing is light years ahead of the 2008/09 season.

Is that a justifiable label for him? 🤔

Wrong thing in clipboard. Corrected it now.

Plus... Valery

Does the light hearted nature of both posts not suggest I wasn't being serious?

Does anyone have a good suggestion as to how that would be best replicated in FM23? So much going on on it, so many colours and a pattern that isn't in the template list! 😁
