He is a trier but not very imaginative. Does most things in regulation style. Gtes up and down the wing, clatters wingers in midfield but looks like a penalty waiting to happen every time a fast winger runs at him in the final third. I worry that the NPL will find out both Frazer, Danny Butterfield and Dan Harding. On the other hand neither Gareth Bale or Wayne Bridge could defend to save their lives so no change there.

I expect - season tickets to go up 25% for starters. - the manager to say that we'll take each game as it comes - stopping at each bus stop to reflect no doubt. - very few (1 or 2) new players will come into the building and those that do will be unknown to most of us. - by Christmas we will be 14th in the NPL - the manager will say that league position is irrelevant and he never looks at it until the end of March - lots of moaning and groaning on here about why we aren't top of the NPL by the end of October - a significant " Adkins Out! lobby by November - lots of rumours about Chambo and Adam and Morgan ...so, quite a season in prospect!

Years ago when most were poo-pooing this player i was almost alone in aruing that he was the one real piece of class we had on uour books and wold be french captain one day and we;d do well to keep him out of the clutches of the gooners. 3 years on more of you seem to have woken up! Don't worry about losing chambo, worry about losing this guy!

Out of Contract Players - Decision Time
Charlie Wayman replied to Saint Charlie's topic in The Saints
The problem with all of this is if we want new players to come in then we have to reduce the wage bill and so a lot of these will have to be moved on. It is easier and cheaper to move on players who are out of contract so i don't expect many or any of these to say - certainly connolly on a one-year and maybe jaidi - but not the others. Sorry for the caps - not shouting, just finger trouble this morning. -
Like forever hopefully. Why should Wenger have all the best French boys?
-
Why would we want to play in Green? Except KD of course
-
He hasn't impressed or done enough yet to justify a permanent signing that's for sure so a further loan is the best e could hope for. I wouldn't bother as the games that he's played so far have passed him by simply because the other players don't yet have any confidence in him to give him the ball. The stuff about Everton *& Bolton is usual SunCrap spun by his agent no doubt.
-
No! - he was just elated, looked very relaxed and very humble on the gantry standing next to us taking pictures on his mobile and chatting to us about what a great sight was 25000 people waving up at the team

Huddersfield appreciation/respect thread
Charlie Wayman replied to southbourne saint's topic in The Saints
It's more than the money 'though as it keeps at least 10 clubs fighting all the way rather than just the top 4 or 5. Similarly at the bottom so up to 20 clubs have something to play for all season -
Huddersfield appreciation/respect thread

Hope they make it, great team easily good enough for the NPC. Could be better than us actually... -
I kinda agree with you on this point, most of the teams in the bottom half play rough longish-ball physical football that for all the world looks like the stuff we've been used to in L1 and none of these unglamorous clubs seem to last very long. If I am correct only 7 teams have never been out of the PL and understandably all the best players tend to flock to them whilst all the the aging old journeymen who make up most of the clubs in the bottom half drift around from club-to-club as relegation and promotion take their course. Stoke's a good example with about 5 ex-Saints still playing despite us not being up there for 6 years. So they can't be very good teams can they and you are right just being like them in the future isn't very appealing at all. As for the girl of your dreams, best not to pine always for the prettiest as so often they can disappoint more!

How can you say that with Norwich promoted and Leeds and Millwall knocking on the door of the play-offs in their first season up? I think you've got it all wrong. I know what you're worried about but Saints will do just fine after they settle in any new players. What I think is clear is the gulf between BIG teams and SMALL teams, by BIG teams I mean those who have been in Division 1 at some stage of their history and the others who never gain the critical mass to do much more than find their level in the second division. The bigger teams can buy their way out of trouble in good times.

We need talented young players to build a team for the Prem not a load of old timers serving out their time. 2/10 for effort 'though
-
Some spelling lessons wouldn't go amiss...

Why didn't you buy a season ticket, then you wouldn't be in this mess.

Radhi Jaidi - Slow so go... Dan Harding - One dimensional but a useful sub. Give him one year Danny Butterfield - OK. Good in parts. Keep for two years Oscar Gobern - Rubbish. Get rid Aaron Martin - Who knows? If he was any good he'd be first choice by now. Maybe one year? David Connolly - Waste of time and money. Get rid. Anthony Pulis - Who? Get rid. N'Guessan (loan) - Complete ********. Get rid. Dale Stephens (loan) - Out of his depth. Get rid.
-
I agree with all of that. Well expressed. Thank you.

The trick is not to worry at all during a game, cast your minds forward to waht it will be like at 90 minutes and say to yourself 'we'll probably win 1-0 or 2-0' and you won't even remember you felt and other way earlier.

Brighton V Saints 1-2 Post match Chat!
Charlie Wayman replied to SOTONS EAST SIDE's topic in The Saints
Great result lads. Nigel, you are such a second-rate bull****ter when it comes to after match comments. "A goal was always coming.." is up there with " there are a lot of games left and the pressure is really on them (Brighton) and yes of course we can win this league..." Be honest man you didn't see this coming at 80 minutes any more than the rest of us; I'll bet you were soiling your nappies for the last ten minutes. -
Oh dear! Looks like the effing play-offs now. Can't see Titsfield losing again. Ah well... Roll on next season, surely we'll be favourites to win Division 3 next time? Don't bet on it!
-
Typical gooble-de-gook from Adders. Excuses time now, we didn't win the league as Mr Cortese wanted... watch this space Brighton only win by cheating??? Do me a favour! Remember he was going to win this league and we'd catch Brighton? "Plenty of games left, plenty of twists and turns" No, I thought not but Mr Cortese will remember. This is called Grade 1 Rrse covering - but my guess is its much too late, the P45 is already signed and sealed in a brown envelope and awaiting delivery.

Markus Liebherr Tributes / Walsall Game Tribute
Charlie Wayman replied to saint peach's topic in The Saints
Don't give up the day job. -
We just cannot deliver when it matters in away games so in reality it is not in our hands at all. We must as always rely on the other two to cock-it up! One might but surely not both. Put it this way, if we lose on Saturday would you bet your house on winning the other four....
