  1. Granted Wotton is poor, but until we get in an experienced older head who can be the MF general I would still prefer to see Wotton in the team. Playing 4 kids in MF is a recipe for disaster (even if Gillett is technically not a kid any more). We need an Alan Ball like figure to play alongside Morgan or Gillett a la Stevie Williams, pity Barmby still cuts it in the Prem.
  2. Well it will end Tuesday. Swindon are not one of the better teams in the league. If we lose 3-1 to them then we probably are in the crapper. Fact is Millwall and Huddersfield will be there or thereabouts at the end of the season. Whether we will be depends on getting in an experienced MF general, a big lump of a CB and a winger with pace, and then using what we have to its potential. I am confident that AP and DW will deliver.
  3. Oh FFS, get a grip.
  4. We've been used to division for some years now, hopefully we are past that, although to read some on here would make you wonder. What is aclimitisde, is it some sort of STD?
  5. He was awful last week as well, we would have won if it had not been for his shocking penalty offence(s) However, clearly huge over reaction by many on here. We lost, again against one of the favourites, and away from home. We know there are still 3 or 4 more players required, why are some so shocked.
  6. Often attributed to Disraeli but no evidence to support it. Mark Twain can be quoted however, as he popularised the saying...
  7. The funniest thing about the "apology" is that it says they are happy to put the record straight. But they don't. I could read that and think that perhaps it was actually only 9, or it could be more. Is there more in the printed article? How long before Lowe demands an apology from VI or whatever the magazine was that the JP article was in. Lowe really continues to show his true colours, a total ****.
  8. What a lot of fuss about nothing. I would be amazed if AP did not know this before he took the job, and anyway it is eminently sensible. Let the manager do his job of identifying needs and checking out players, while Sporting Director (no mention of Director of Football by the way) negotiates transfers, contracts etc., just like every other club in the country - except some give this role to the CEO, or to some idiot called Lowe. The article also says this will be done before the transfer window opens next summer!! There are some people on here who have got so used to bad things coming from the Club because of the way Lowe organisued things that they are now paranoid that everyone else is as big a duffer as that prat was. In the end if AP did have a problem with this (and I am 100% confident he will not) then he could take a hike, no man is bigger than the club.
  9. No need to bring that Skate into this
  10. Sure, he was relieved of his duties, amounts to the same thing he was sacked. However, Gunn was not sacked by Delia, but by McNally the Chief Exec.
  11. I think we should go for Billy Whizz instead, we need some pace up front.
  12. Correct, most now have 5 fingers on each hand, having lost the other one in the sausage making machines. Harris sausages, ideal for finger buffets
  13. Fondue sets from the megastore, can't wait
  14. Devon is a low cost centre, like other 3rd world countries.
  15. presumably they have to sort out the date as well. Given both us and Pompey were drawn at home, one of the games will be on Tuesday and one on Wednesday I assume. Old Bill don't allow us to both be at home on same day AFAIK.
  16. So from this viewpoint he is certainly no worse that Thomas and lancashire who both give away pens for fun, and also has the added advantage that he scores at the other end, so just on that basis he is better. He was clearly a higher class than either of these two anyway, and giving pens away when playing in a **** defence with no cover is hardly surprising. You're entitled to your views, but you appear to be in a small minority. JPS would be a great signing.
  17. Most people think the Isle of Wight is behind the times, you obviously think it is ahead No matter, here in Wiltshire its past your bedtime Still odd, it is on the Football League web site, but nowhere else By the way, the FL site says we are away not home...Unless of course its 2 legs, thought they scrapped that.
  18. Thought the draw was at 10.30, why isn't it listed on BBC, SkySports or even the OS?
  19. Please can it be Swindon then, I couldn't stand the stick up here if we lose to them, and I want to see us win
  20. So has experience playing 3rd rate teams then
  21. The content may have improved, but the match commentary was appalling, not just the quality of the commentary (which was Solent anyway), but also the delivery of the feed (kept breaking up). Paying for exclusive saints content and then cutting to reports about Bournemouth and even worse eastleigh is not my idea of Saints exclusivity. I don't mind the commentator just adding Cherries now 4-0 down during quiet moment, but cutting to a different match altogether is not acceptable
  22. Welcome aboard Mr Pardew
  23. Surely its the Ampton derby More seriously is anyone else having trouble with SaintsPlayer, keeps dropping out every few seconds, comes back straight away but is fecking frustrating.
  24. More chance of getting Henri Camara back...
  25. Hope the parole comes through soon
