What about organisation at corners? What about getting to know how his back four play when we're not in possession, both individually and collectively? I really don't understand why MLG gets the "banter" he does on here

Beat me to it! You weren't alone, although I never got his name on my shirt!

That was my initial thought too, would still be a good signing though

Jesus, I'd forgotten about that - horrible day

The away defeats I saw in League One were tempered by the fact that, by and large, they were blips - the club was on an upward trajectory by then. For me it'd have to be one of the away defeats in 2008/09 - can't be more specific than that I'm afraid, I've repressed most of my memories from that season!

Edit

I think you probably would, don't forget Wimbledon gets these attendances on weekdays. And equally if Saints played everyday for two weeks (including weekdays), with only weak opposition in the first week, I doubt you'd get the average attendance we get with games spread across a season (primarily on weekends)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/8136389.stm "We should not expect instant success" - but that's what you delivered Markus.. RIP. So glad he got to see 55,000 of us win at Wembley - hopefully, somewhere, he realises quite how happy he's made quite so many.

Difference is that's centre court's capacity, they could quite comfortably average 50-60k there during the 2 weeks if they had extra seats, probably more. That said, hopefully Bournemouth'll be able to scrap it out with skates for best attendance..! Prepare for the hilarious in-jokes about the p*mpey takeover thread in the lounge btw (in the off-topic forum section)

Yes, but do you like the new kit? Jokes, it's true that far too many get consumed by their jobs and let life pass them by. Many require a wake-up call, in whatever form. Work to live, don't live to work.

Admittedly it's only 20 seconds long but the build up to that goal isn't a great advert for the cream of Scottish football!

Please not Nicky Butt

Good job he didn't base his decision to move on the relative quality of our websites

Steven Davis?

That goal's stuck with me as well for some reason - bloody love Tiss!

Percentages probably mean percentage of the 2m..?

I'd say it's pretty decent for a control group, sample of over 2m with no region bias, only issue is age bias. Most 'surveys' in papers etc are far worse than that! I appreciate your efforts bearsy!

Good thinking batman! Be interesting to adjust for league position at outset of season (i.e. filter out the plastics) - our support would look even more impressive then!

Have you got a link to the website this was sourced from?

Or have they done an autumn logo? Missed a trick there if they haven't.

Don't forget the green on the tree.

I'm not even sure what those champion things are in the second quote but I notice you've also got your weak excuses out ("unemployed 5 years ago" "few seconds a day posting") - maybe the people queuing have their reasons too? Surprise their son/daughter when they get in, or maybe they just enjoy the buzz of launch day? Many consider us lot bowling up every Saturday to watch 22 men kick a ball about for 90 mins a bit odd, but they don't label us "mongish".

It seemed AVB's remit was to overhaul the squad with the long-term in mind, whereas RDM was allowed to do the best for the short-term - two very different objectives. With RDM now charged with achieving the former, I reckon he'll be gone by Christmas.
