  1. His salary was around the £1.2m mark when they were relegated and he accepted a 40% cut in May last year so I'm sure that he could find more rewarding employment anywhere but Saints. I'm sure that HCDAJFU but we couldn't afford him.
  2. OK, let's try and look at it objectively for a moment: we're 4 points behind Norwich who are 12 goals better off, so we need to win at least two games more than them by the end of the season. With a real manager who could instil a proper discipline and sense of purpose then we might have had a chance. As things stand, we're doomed. I have a seaking suspicion that Charlton could suddenly get a couple of good results so I would say Saints, Watford, Norwich from the bottom up.
  3. Count me in, although it's all over now, bar the shouting.
  4. ... and Yeovil & Swindon! And I have never been to Carlisle. Thanks, I feel a bit better now.
  5. Good point! Perhaps we should all stop supporting.
  6. You speak for yourself...
  7. Well there's a surprise. I'm surprised that I still care.
  8. The answers are 'yes' and 'bugger all' in that order.
  9. I've heard some feeble excuses in my time but now I've heard it all. If you think that we have been unlucky this season then you must have been watching a different team. The only bad luck that we supporters have had is to be the poor recipients of the crass and bizarre decisions of a deluded chairman.
  10. There seem to be an awful lot of them.
  11. How on earth do you come to that conclusion? Surely bad management must come at the top of the list?
  12. Not from what I've seen. The ball is rarely 'dead' when he has his first touch and he doesn't have particularly quick feet.
  13. Promote McGoldrick from a League-2 standard stroll-about to top goalscorer in the CCC?
  14. More paying guests through the turnstiles?
  15. I should have added 'up-to-date'
  16. I said 'detailed'...
  17. The only items that matter are 5 & 6. 6 alone might stave off administration but 6 won't happen without 5.
  18. I cannot possible express an opinion on this matter without having a detailed look at the accounts.
  19. How can you possibly make a statement like that? There is no possible basis for coming to that conclusion. I am confident that Crouch is just as capable of making the necessary savings as Lowe, but one thing is certain: the return of Lowe has caused a drop in income through the turnstiles.
  20. I would have to be very careful. At my age, in my fragile state, the shock could finish me off.
  21. I would say Bournemouth but they will probably beat us to it. I watched some enjoyable games there many years ago with my father-in law until he died. My family are all from Tottenham way so I saw a few games there back when Jimmy Greaves was still playing. I suppose I could still get my footie fix from refereeing on a Sunday morning where the real stuff is played. It's the beautiful game, the King of Sports, the finest game in the world, but somehow it hasn't seemed like it this season.
  22. I think: Respect and Pity in equal proportions.
  23. Hang on a minute! It depends on how old you are
  24. Just background info. It is one way for a club (PLC) to raise money. i don't think that it would work in our case. Although if someone wanted to create a supporter's association to run the whole mess then I might be interested. We could be like Barcelona, but with more glamour
  25. Is that because of the time that has lapsed since his initial purchase at 65p?
