BARCELONASAINT

Another day and the same old drama queens are up and at their keyboards spouting the same things over and over and over and over..........

Stu a very reasonable letter with some solid points and as you feel so strongly about this i hope you do get an answer. I suspect if you do get an answer you still won't be happy....but as i've said before you cannot please all the people all of the time! I would suggest leaving the subject alone now, you have more than expressed your point and even if i do not share your point of view it did not take me more than 1 page of your arguement to understand where you are coming from on this.

why don't you crawl back under your rock!

I'm sure we are not the only club to have its fair share of drama queens and whinning minnies but as i only ever bother to read this forum it appears we have a certain core element who can do nothing but moan and whine. Have any of you drama queens out there stopped and thought for a minute. ML bought our club and cleared our debts and saved us from oblivion. He then quite rightly stated he wanted to run the club as self generating and living within its means once stability was achieved. The club is living within the economic times we live in as best it can. I don't care what anyone says but this country is ****ed and there are going to be some very hard times ahead that the goverment will have to impose and football is not above those hard times. Stop blaming the club, blame Sky tv, blame fat cat agents, blame greedy players that have turned the game into one big money obsessed arena. If the club is to survive once Marcus has left....and he will do eventually, then the club needs to be able to do so with income it self generates. Its simple economics in harsh times. As much as i can sympathise with many that dont like some of the decisions the club has made i would ask them to take their heads out of the sand and think about the bigger picture!

Jesus 8 pages of this ********, have some people on here no life at all?? Stu if it means that much to you vote with your feet and don't attend games!.....but to keep going on and on and on, well frankly it is boring and tedious.

Who was it who said:- "you can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time." How true is that in the life of a Saints fan and it seems particularly SAINTS fans!!

middle name Pinocchio??

I seriously have to laugh at some of the drama queens on here who think every day NC must update the fans about every rumour, about every minute detail involving Saints.....personally i like his no nonsense attitude and the way he doesn't pander to anyone, he just gets on with the job in hand. Some people need to wise up seriously!!

That did make me chuckle Mike:smt043

Thats what gives me the most pleasure, spending time with my sons watching Saints together and then spending almost all week digesting all things Saints...lol. The JPT Final was our first chance together to see Saints at Wembley and i could not have been happier. I still play league football at the age of 45 and its because my son now plays in the same team, the love of football with him keeps me going.

Let me ask you a question. Have you ever been in a position where you have heard people gossiping about you?...and the gossip be wide of the mark? what did you do? rise above it and think "I'm better than that, i'm not even going to dignify that rubbish with a response"....or have you jumped up and down like a child demanding they retract those nasty untrue words??? I know what i do!!

Unless they got a quote directly from NC himself it is at best 3rd hand information which cannot be substantiated....all it is ....FACT someone told them something they could not prove one way or the other so they decided what the hell we will print this it doesn't matter we cannot prove this and it may be a load of b*llocks!!

If i'm wrong i'll happily accept the critiscm BUT....I do not believe for one moment that NC suddenly had a change of heart and decided those horrible people at the Echo and those ex managers and players are right and he shouldn't sack AP. I don't believe he ever intended to sack AP. Being dissapointed we didn't make the playoffs yes...we missed it by a whisker and if i was NC i would be upset.....but sacking the manager who it was obvious most of the fan base was behind before these stupid rumours even manifested themselves, NO. The man is to astute for that and unless anyone on here heard it to the contrary from NC himself anything else was just unsubstantiated conjecture. I really do think people should move on and stop seeing conspiracy theories where none exist and read more into statements given than the exact words stated!!

****ing brilliant news and a big **** off to all the sh#t stirring idiots including that piece of crap local rag!!

I dont often agree with your arguements on here and sometimes think you just post looking for an arguement....however here i 100% agree with what you say. You are right on NC and ML can decide....i just hope we keep what we have because there is no replacement for continuity for the fans, staff or players.

Personally i think this is exactly what will happen. Probably will upset a lot of drama queens on here and those that thought we had a divine right to promotion or the playoffs.

I think this is all complete b*llocks. AP has done all that could have been expected of him this season and now is in a perfect position to hit next season running with a proper pre-season and no points deduction behind him. If we have just signed this Calderon chap from Brighton this is surely all the proof we need that the final tweaks to the team are being made already in preperation for next season and that AP has obviously asked NC to go out and sign the player! Does anyone seriously think we would do that and then within days sack the manager? Too many people on here that just want to stir things up and have grossly over active immaginations.

You have been told it is not for the police to take action when fans go on the pitch, that is for the stewards, that is their role....IS THAT DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND? ....contributing factor to the tension..... for gods sake behave, this was an end of season kick about with nothing riding on the outcome, the only tension was in deciding whether to have a pie or a pint at halftime or both, some people just have to have someone else to blame!!!

Completely naive thread from someone that knows nothing and just wants to blame the police for a mindless few that are stupid enough to break the ground rules. You would have to be a complete moron not to know it's an offence to go on the pitch which risks ejection from the ground, banning or arrest. The police are only there to act when requested to do so by the stewards. I was at the game and when the handful of idiots went on the pitch all you could hear was 20000 plus fans calling them ******s!! I think the majority let them know what they thought of them!

Complete rubbish printed by two garbage newspapers. Why people think NC has to make a statement is beyond me. I am sure the only person he needs to speak to is AP if he has not already made it very clear that he is happy with where AP has taken us and he will honour the contract HE GAVE AP. Enough said on the subject!!!

Hmmmmm, i don't think i said anywhere that i thought his decision was wrong.....I said i felt sorry for those fans that paid out their hard earned cash and stood in the p*ssing rain. I perfectly understand the point AP was making to NC.

The minute i heard the first 11 announced my heart went out to those fans that travel away to support our team. The result was inevitable before kickoff once the starting 11 was announced and i feel really sorry for those that pay hard earned money to travel up and down the country to support the team. Having slept on it i can understand AP decision to try fringe players and those playing for their contracts, i think quite a few questions will have been answered.....and it could have been a clever ploy by AP to show Cortese we do need 2/3 more players.

Another season in this league wont be a bad thing. We were not quite ready for the championship

You really are a miserable ****!!!

In essense i agree totally with you, however your arguement has one major flaw!! How do you explain those SAINTS FANS THAT WERE CHALLENGED BY OTHER SAINTS FANS FOR BOOING CORTESE that were at the match and had to turn around and ask those fellow Saints fans why they were booing him??? Oh and their pathetic response was along the lines "....because we think he's a knob" Get used to it, our club is no different to every other club, we have an element of idiots just like all the others.:mad:
