Hardly, we pick up yellows at a stupid rate and we badger the ref a lot more (never mind Lallana gate), I imagine we've picked up serious points for positive play but I understand why we are where we are.

I've highlighted a couple of names spelled wrong, some out of place capitals and a few missed or misplaced apostrophes, I won't attempt to judge your grammatical structure as frankly mine is fairly awful. I enjoyed the article Paddy, post some others when you get the chance as I'd like to see your writing progress and it is always interesting to read a Southampton fan's view on the situation and see the world through another's eyes. Best of luck with the course and try and convert some new fans down under

Whilst I agree, big Vic is utter class and needs game time to stay sharp, we'll need him for the run in and we need him match fit ASAP judging on his last performance. Cork to start but if we're ahead VW needs at least a 20min run out at the end. We're in the enviable position of having three very very good midfielders competing for two starting spots.

Ha' Way you mean? Where's Duncan when you need him?

According to clubcall (I know) the Portugese media, specifically Record have said we're monitoring SC Braga midfielder Rafa with a view to potentially securing a summer move. http://www.clubcall.com/southampton/portuguese-starlet-in-saints-sights-1706692.html

When did this happen? Was that the stupid sms thing?

I fail to see your point? Adkins was a fantastic manager, there's not many who can achieve back to back promotions and he's doing well at Reading on top of that. We were playing incredibly exciting football, the players loved him and the media thought we were mad to let him go.

First reported by Sports Direct as I posted yesterday, not the most reliable source. http://www.sportsdirectnews.com/premier-league-news/39722-southampton-boss-is-a-real-possibility.php#.UvHSQ_mSyVE Now picked up by the Mirror. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/southampton-fc-real-madrid-eyeing-3112726?

Ridiculous, can we please tie him down before his contract expires Miss Liebherr so we don't have to deal with this ********?

He's allowed if he's enrolled to do the courses even if he hasn't achieved them yet if I recall?

On the plus side, we can't be crisis club flavour of the month anymore. The media can even play the premier league darling team turned disaster zone card with Swansea the same as they have been with us.

Bugger the rules BTF, every now and then I post something interesting in general sports or the lounge and it's on the main board within moments with 1000 posts. If you can't beat em.... post it on the main board and let the mods move it for you after everyone has seen it They need to be kept on their toes after all, bless them.

Carroll misses our game, it is very good news.

I loathe it, but it has its uses.

http://www.sportsdirectnews.com/premier-league-news/39722-southampton-boss-is-a-real-possibility.php#.UvDnkvmSyVE Poch to Real Madrid? Wouldn't blame him if he took that job but I don't see it reported anywhere else? Sports direct being owned by a man with a stake in a rival club always makes me suspicious though when they release destabilizing stories (No doubt my baseless paranoia working overtime).

The promotion party boat thread in December beggared belief

Signed, we just dodged the SISU bullet so I'm signing this in the hopes that you would have done the same had we gone down your route instead.

The man speaks some sense intermingled with utter insanity, it's a strange combination.

Assumptions.... Cortese left, deal fell through! Obviously big bad Nic was trying to sell plucky hero Lambert and the only reason it fell through was his move.

That, as much as his tactics is what makes him such a great manager.

Yes, as of a while ago but he wants to play for France apparently.

Neither did I. This is a thing apparently http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/neknominate-extreme-online-drinking-game-disturbing-1.2519896

Or, congratulations to Fox on playing well in his debut. You know, either or

It's been said but I'll say it again, if Lallana does not make the WC it is an utter farce.

I'm fairly certain Latvia have never qualified for the WC finals.
