Give it to Ron

I think that would suit most Saints fans...wouldn't want you out of business as we still want to get back above you and repay the latest results. I remember how we felt last season and don't want anyone to go through that ..well maybe that twa8t with the bell! A -17 would do nicely.

How do you know this??/ Christ most of us agree that we are a bit too weak but FFS think what you are posting. What was Carter last week then a figment of Pardews imagination??

With 4 players out last Saturday are you honestly stating you would risk more in a pointless friendly? You would be criticising Pardew even more if we lost Barnard and the fragile Connoly!!! What would Eastleigh offer that a good training session at Staplewood would't of shown AP already? He would know his starting line up already and would of put them out in training games if fit. Are you seriously believing that Eastleigh are a better standard than our squad?

Trousers beat me to it ....glad I couldnt go in the end...£16 for me and the nipper is a bit pricey to watch that line up when I can see that at Staplewood for free soon.

Adults - £10 Concessions - £6 Under 16s - £6 Under 12s - £4 KO 7.45 I don't think we will see too many first team squad risked.

What a great chap that Cortese is dropping the beer prices.

Yep and getting stuffed 4-1 by Palace was very entertaining.

I couldn't make it Saturday...family issues but did I read on the reports that the 'beer' prices have come down?? £3.20 to £3???

Totally agree....saw far better football last season from sides than in the relegation year. Championship teams seem to play with fear of not reaching the Prem or dropping to League 1. I guess the revenue is not such a drop from League 1 to 2 as it is in the other divisions.

Steve Mcmanaman he was spotted more times at the De Vere than the head chef.

Well there was 10 years history to mull over wasn't there...good, bad and ugly

Think or hope?

Hahahahaha yep...got through loads of managers so far....and staff Appointed pathetic Dutch coaches x4. Got rid of a good up and coming manager without the courtesy of telling him he had to find out via his agent who read it online. Alienated at least 10k supporters...of course our ST sales are down aren't they? Has Cortese phoned anyones employer yet complaining about his use of the internet during the firms time like the guy from Soton General? I see exactly what you mean....

Well if he can run from one end of the pitch to the other, pass a ball to a team mate, not give away sill free kicks around our area then he will be an improvement on Wotton. We will not get promoted if we are relying on the standard of players like Wotton.

Went to Mountbatten school. Just one that got away.

I am not ...I went in there recently and it was terrible - empty. Beer was awful and the barman tried to rip me off with the price of the drinks. Never been the same since Fat Harry had it. The Four Horsheshoes used to be great as well when he had it great BBQ - big garden now just nothing to do for the kids.

We didn't let them go....they were loans that returned to their respective clubs. I am sure Pardew realises we need to replace them and will if he has the funds. Priority IMO is a back up to Lambert. We still need pace up front agreed.

Johnnyboy They were 'camped' opposite The Potters Heron a few weeks ago for a few days. Still had those puppies for sale. Left the place clean and no rubbish at all - in fact the horses saved cutting the grass by the council.

Forest Inn has shut down. If you are out Romsey way try The Malthouse - great carvery and big play area for the kids - football goals as well.

So you are a better judge than Pardew then to decide who is critical and who isn't? Why would I spin FFS get real and over yourself.

Didn't we also sign a left back /midfielder or was I in the shower dreaming that?

Harrington will be up there with the leaders.

Crikey only an hour ago he was telling me about it and his banner professing his love for Wotton.

under my tartan blanket with that noise....... http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~2090047,00.html

Webb had an impossible task to do and did the best he could under those circumstances. He did a really good job.
