Why is it bizarre? Making stupid comments about relegation and transfer windows on a match thread, that is bizarre, but then we all know you are bizarre.

Sometimes when you have nothing good to say it is better to say nothing.

Looks remarkably 4-4-2 like team, or possibly 4-2-3-1. I assume the order of the team does not reflect their positions in any way, I prefer Morgan in MF to defence :-)

It appears that you certainly are, well done for outing yourself.

So glad you can't be assed, it was a tongue in cheek comment. Sense of humour failure on your part, like a few others on here.

Thanks, but I would need 2, my daughter would kill me if I went without her. Hopefully someone else will be interested.

Must admit I didn't notice Cork, perhaps I've forgotten what he looks like. If so then that's good news.

This whole 4-3-3 thing has gone beyond a joke. We haven't played 4-3-3 every game and Adkins has changed the system round many times already this season, 4-4-1-1 and 4-2-3-1 and 4-4-2 have all been used at times. He said that about 4-3-3 during his "30 minutes of gloom" after the WHU defeat before he put his positive head back on and discovered poetry.

Only Cork and Richardson seem to be longish term, quite clear from SaintsPlayer that GR is not far off, Lee has been training for some time already, and Fox's injury is somewhat mysterious, I didn't know you had a hamstring in your groin. It really wouldn't surprise me to see Ramirez and Lee on the bench for tomorrow. I can't make up my mind whether I want Fox to be fit or not :-) Really ****ed off actually to be missing the game, and with it not on TV either. Bloody plastics buying tickets for games before I got mine :-(

No, a defeat will leave us in exactly the same position as we are now (apart from a worse GD and 1 game less to play). Do you consider we are already cut adrift? I think we will lose tomorrow, but was just pointing out a fact, that the margins are still very small between the bottom and the middle of the league.

3 points tomorrow will see us in 16th above Villa and Norwich and within touching distance of another few teams.

Well in my opinion Wigan were much worse.

Ok, Arteta will do

It sticks in my throat a bit but come on Arse. A goal from Walcott now would be good.

Always look on the bright side of life, hey Alps?

He was certainly involved in training, and can be seen playing, not just light training. NA said Lee was back in training today, when clearly he has been training for some time. He also mentioned Fox had been out with hamstring, thought it was a groin.

cheese on toast board? Pity that a few people have a problem when someone dares to show a bit of intelligence. Not sure I much like the poem itself, but its refreshing to see something other than the usual brain dead responses from football managers and footballers. At least I could understand it, unlike listening to Fergie slurring his words or Redkrapp talking ****** in a cheeky chappy cockney way.

Well its not worth discussing managers that could not work with NC. For a start they will not get appointed, and secondly why would we want a manager, any manager, that cannot work with the Chairman? Sometimes I wonder if some people actually think about what they post, but I guess when you post so much there cannot be much of a thought process. Thought you were not going to be around for a day or two, disappointing development if thats not true.

Where is the option for Adkins?

Since when was Stoke the pet club of any hack ? Probably not since Stanley Matthews was a wee boy.

The most laughable aspect of this story is the idea of Kenwyne Jones coming back to Saints. I sometimes wonder if these lazy hacks actually have any idea, and even realise that KJ used to play for us and went on strike for a transfer. The idea of Lambert at Stoke is just plain daft, why would someone with the skill and touch of Lambert go and play for a team that just relies on height and muscle. Fecking joke.

Of all the unemployed managers out there (except Hoddle) why would anyone think that bringing back Arry is a good idea. I guess some people have short memories. This would be the same Arry who got us relegated before, who had no idea how to turn a losing team into a winning one. This would be the same Arry who was a complete wizard at sorting out the defence, bringing in those great defenders Olivier Bernard, Andreas Jakobssen and Calum Davenport. Too many people believe what they read in the tabloids that Arry is a great manager, he isn't. He is also unemployed for a good reason, because he cannot develop a team and only succeeds by buying in players in the transfer window. Even his partial success at Spuds only highlighted that he did not know how to organise a defence, Spuds succeeded because they were great at goingforward - sound familiar? I don't believe for one nanosecond that NC would even contemplate having saggy chops around, they are an even worse fit than Lowe and Arry, as different as Chalk and ****. Redknapp would be just about the worst possible option in our current predicament (OK, Burley would be worse, and possibly Portvliet, oh and Wigley) but you get my drift

Don't think journos would be able to keep up with Turkish's posts, let alone lazy journos. I've always suspected not much to do during the day if you are in Telesales, except listen to people putting the phone down on you, by the post count Mr T has confirmed my suspicion. Sadly its quantity rather than quality.

He used a ghost writer

I know its not a league game, but I've heard we are going to wear the white kit away to Leeds. This is to confuse any Leeds thugs from Cheltenham who will not know who to punch. We have to make sure our keeper wears the same colour as theirs as well. I think the all-white kit will prove to have been a sound investment as a result.
