I'll give you all that but what's the point of all this if we're not going to try to win games? Where's the pride and the passion today? Who can honestly say that they can wear their Saints shirt with pride and when challenged about our attitude to the game say "Yeah, we're doing great thanks, we've done enough this season and we can pick and choose which games we want to turn up to".

Too true.

Likewise. Silly me but I thought we had progressed, I thought we were better than this but apparently not. Underneath the attractive new facade the old Southampton still lurks.

He was there to miss his chance, God alone knows how. Something was wrong with the mindset of him and the whole team today. There was no belief, hunger, desire or conviction.

I shall tell them that I wasted a whole Saturday of my life watching the most abject surrender I have ever witnessed in my team and then spent the rest of the day moaning about it on here.

Maybe it is money, but from this stage on the FA Cup prize & TV money and extra gate receipts start to outweigh the Premier League place money and on this showing you couldn't blame BT if they didn't hand over the TV money for today's showing.

He lost a lot of his shine today, in my opinion. His halo has slipped round his neck.

No, you were just watching a sh1t match.

Well put.

Ok, I'll try. It'll be an evening kickoff. What else is there?

We don't even have the depth of squad to compete in the cups this season. Apparently.

Er...

Away to Palace, 8th March.

Win this game and all through and including the final is £3.24m, plus TV money. Perhaps we should have offered MM a share of that as a bonus? http://www.thefa.com/thefacup/more/prize-fund

Anyway when the ticket is half of it's normal price you can only expect half of the normal side right ??:smug: Nice try, but somebody explained earlier that the prize money for getting this far made up for the lack of supporters.

Absolutely this. Time for the end of season party and booking your holidays. I just don't care any more.

I keep getting 24. Have I got something wrong again?

If ever there was a moment it do it then I think that MP has to come out and apologise direct to the fans for this result, and in English if he has any political sense at all.

Somehow the whole attitude throughout the management and team was apathetic from before the kickoff.

You couldn't call that a performance.

I can almost understand the selection but not the performance. You could see from the body language that their hearts weren't in it.

I'm not sure which of them it is. I think there are a couple of cars missing.

Some do, some don't. Whichever it is, there is no excuse for the poor preparation and performance that we saw today.

Chicken and egg. I know a lot of regulars who decided not to go when they couldn't get their regular seat.

Then somebody should let him know how they feel. If the Europa Cup is to blame then remove the FA Cup final qualification and award an extra league place. Perhaps then we wouldn't be bothered about going for 7th?
