The only good guy to come out of the whole shambles and whose part in the club shouldn't be underestimated. Paid the wages for a while and also made a huge loss on his shares to get Lowe out. I'm also pretty sure he was one of the ones who refused to let SISU take us over when Jim hone and the others wanted them in.

I disagree, as I said on the match thread, our back 7 were so dominant I don't think it would have made any difference. To me its pretty evident poch doesn't fancy him.

Behave, they wouldn't have scored if they were still playing now.

I remember after going to the Dell to watch Saints thrash Sheffield Wednesday 5-1 to reach the FA cup semi final in 1984, which was also the start of our great run to 2nd place, my first thought was to the chairman and hope he was enjoying himself. This was the days before mongboards so I immediately wrote into the echo to say that I hoped Alan Woodford enjoyed his evening that night. He deserved it. Afterall, he was the reason why we won the FA cup in 1976, finished second, had the European footballer of the year and one of England's greatest ever goalkeepers play for us and qualify for Europe season after season, he got every big decision right and as a fan of the club I'm eternally grateful for what he did for us back then and wrote to the echo to tell him so.

Our back 7 are incredible, whilst a lot of the plaudits will go to our attacking players for today and rightly so, the defensive midfielders and centre halves didn't give Fulham a sniff, winning the ball back quickly and aggressively every time we gave it away. Clyne and Shaw forward well as well as doing their jobs defensively and although Boruc won't have a quieter afternoon he's been outstanding and you can see the confidence the defence have in him. As a unit we are looking very powerful and difficult to beat. If we can keep our key players for then we could be in for one hell of a season, really fancy us for a decent cup run if we take them seriously.

Not your brightest post ever and that's saying something.

Rumour has it he served the captain some burnt chips and they poured the boiling fat over his hands as punishment.
-
Talking of players we were linked with, Jack Butland currently playing for Barnsley v Sheff Wed, hardly the answer to our goalkeeping problems she was billed as. Antonio, who we were assured by some was a future premier league star and absolutely brilliant playing for Wednesday and been awful. Dale Jennings has just replaced the ineffective Jacob mellis too

Surely that are all banging on their forum that they took around 45,000 to Wembley once so need a stadium that big?

How are we meant to create a global brand and attract casual fans if no one watches us on Sky?

Its incredible that everytime you leave the house you end up having in depth conversations with Germans who know everything there is to know about Southampton FC. -
Millwall and Luton took similar amounts to Wembley in recent season, do they need a 45,000 stadium too?

Yes it is. but at the end of the day the club will want to maximise revenue from all means possible, especially with the financial fair play thing coming in soon. Which is why cortese hash shown little desire to reduce prices to boost attendance. He didn't do it when we were getting 21,000 in league one. He didn't do it when we were getting 26,000 in the championship and he isn't going to do it now were getting 30,000 in the premier league. Its simple maths, 30,000 at £40 is for more profitable than 32,500 at £25. Argue all you want about if its right or not, but Cortese is a banker, bankers make (or lose) money, they aren't known for being great guys who love their customers, everyone seems to be lauding his ruthlessness when it suits them but not so much in this scenario .

Did he also offer you tickets when we play them in the champions league and spend the rest of the night drinking beer and singing the Adam Lallana song with you, just like the very knowledgable about Saints Bayern Munich fans you met two weeks ago? -
What were you expecting from a prematch interview? Would you rather have you leg bitten off by a badger or your arm ripped off by a grizzly bear?

You are though Drunken rants, endless typing, posting lots but saying nothing, obsessions with internet posters. Odd.

You're odd.

I can't wait to see one of our comedians and their made up conversations between the lazy lying scumbag journo and the lazy lying scumbag editor about how they can destabilise us. We haven't had one of them for a while which is a shame as not only are they side splittingly hilarious they are not doubt 100% accurate too.
-
That was lies too apparently

So just a laying lying journo scumbag rehashing someone else's old story.

Presumably we all believe the David Astori Article in the same paper. Or is it still only the mirror who hate us?
