Absolutely top pro. I don’t know what if anything went on with Charlie Taylor but from what I’ve heard and seeing him in the Burnley documentary he was another good professional. Personally I can’t believe we kept Manning over him.

TBF maybe getting ready for L1 next season?!

IDK Alex, you maybe correct

Just been sent this. I don’t and never have pretended to be ITK, however my source knows his football and has connections: Ex Shots striker Lorent Tolaj on his way to Saints? Currently at Plymouth a the leading scorer in L2, having joined them for 1.1m in the summer transfer window from Port Vale. He is quality mate, hope you do get him

Yeah just listened to it, thanks for posting. Some great points and observations. What I’d like to see though is AB and AH going into a presser and absolutely giving it to TE. They know the issues and need to start worrying less about whether the club may ban them. I remember the Scottish press giving RM absolute pelters ………basically doing their job

If we’re talking decent left backs that RM isn’t fit to lace the boots of then I raise you………Mark Dennis

Of the ‘decent’ players it’s more a case of who will want to stay. We’re about to enter a period of mid Championship obscurity for a number of years. Not much quality will cross the line at SMS and if it does it’ll be sold.

Me too. I’m a regular, or was. Simply not throwing my time and money at them anymore. If we were entertaining and the team were giving 100% then different matter, but they’re not. I don’t think I’ve seen such unprofessionalism in 50 years of supporting this club

Said it before and I’ll say it again……….Neil Warnock keeps us up, shakes up the team and won’t dance to anyone’s tune - which is why he’ll never get the job

I had a choice today. A 400 mile round trip or play golf. I shot 9 over. Not sure when or if I want to go again

Until Monday? We can hope

Bad was on the transfer committee!

Spot on Wade. If they can turn a profit on players and make the club live within its means then that’s what matters and will make them richer. We, the fans are the only ones truly invested.

How about this for a gamble……….we bring him back for a minimal amount. He’ll happily return and after the Chelsea debacle he’ll be too scared to leave again. He remains a Saint ala MLT and turns into a legend……or is that too big a gamble?!

Macc away please! I work with a few Macc STH’s and it’s local. The only issue is that if we draw them we’re out.

I get the impression too that if we’d have been successful he wouldn’t just have his head turned by another club and may well have shown a bit of loyalty.

Interesting, I also think he looks overweight. However I look at some referees and think the same. With the referees though they simply aren’t. They have levels they have to achieve and if they don’t hit them then they don’t referee, it’s as simple as that. So say what you want about them but fitness isn’t an issue. With our players however I think it’s different. I don’t think the levels are there or the expectations. Some, like Manning I suspect are getting away with not being as professional as they should. It’s an awful indictment on where the club currently is.

Whether it’s this thread or on another, TE is just a bull shitter, a SR puppet who’s having his strings pulled

This is where I wonder about the players. This sounds completely implausible but do you think there’s an element of managers saying ‘we’re doing this, these are our expectations and these are the levels you need to get to’ but the players, because they like Easy Street, simply say ‘no we’re not’ and they’re allowed to get away with it. Watching other games with the pace and power I just think we’re a million miles away and without a major uplift in fitness and attitude we’ll never get to it.

Not great reading https://www.footballinsider247.com/worst-player-i-have-ever-seen-everton-fans-rip-into-competition-winner-after-what-he-did-vs-sunderland/

Yes……….unlike the fans, many of whom will be sacrificing their time and money again tomorrow - especially when the game maybe in doubt.

Lovely story. RIP Martin

Alfie……..ask this question, which we all want to know…… ‘Are you wedded to a system which the owners want you to play?’ ……..it’s that simple…..have some guts and be a fucking proper journalist

Absolutely Gloucester. Whilst I applaud those fans and no doubt they’ll be at Donny and up at the crack of dawn for Pompey it’s that blind loyalty that the club depends on.

I wonder if Chelsea win tonight that they’ll appoint Calum McFarlane?
