Bloody hell!! You'd be looking at a couple of years clunk for that these days!
-
Finally! This has had more hold ups than La Senza. Come on the Haye Maker, i think he'll do it on a stoppage.
-
No didn't hear it, what did he have to say for himself? He's a cock, the only one who wasn't funny at of the four blokes on the Mary Whitehouse Experience, not because he's a Jew by the way, but because he's not funny. Great game by the way.
-
Just out of interest, what's your take on Forte?
-
ha ha, I used to have one as well mate. I loved them as a kid, not sure we'd suit them now though!
-
I agree with CEC, i dont think Guly is especially quick and his first touch can at times be terrible, but 8 goals and 6 assists in 19 starts proves he is effective.
-
Yet you've drawn yours on Antonio only making 14 starts over a season.
-
who do we want to win tonight? The Yids or the gooners?
-
I neither agree nor disagree, i could see the value of signing him, but i dont think he is the answer to all our prayers like some seem too. Squad player, no more no less, quick, strong but raw, i dont see him bringing anything more to the table than Forte.
-
yes lets, if you can let us know when Antonio & Waigo make their premier league debut that would also be most welcome. As for Guly, you are right, he falls between the two descriptions you have mentioned, but i'm not unhappy having a player who averages a goal almost every 2 games, over a 46 games season that would make him in the top 5 scorers in league one, not bad for a moderate player who produces a rare moment of inspiration, but not often enough to warrent a start in this divison.
-
You're right it is. Thats why i'd also use the judgement of a manager of good championship side who has won promotion from the league we are and a premier league manager who has won promotion from the league above the one we are in as a good guide to a players ability, as well as my own first hand knowledge. I cant see either falling over themselves to sign Antonio, can you?
-
The difference is JP did very well at a decent championship side and earnt a move to the premier league and Antonio cant get anywhere near the first team of a side who apart from a very good run of late have been midtable all season. It's obvious which one is the better player, the championship reserve obviously.
-
And i am sure you can tell us how many points Reading have since Antonio hasn't, or how many Millwall got whilst Puncheon was there. Maybe if Ian Holloway had spoken to you first he'd have signed Antonio and Waigo and Blackpool would now be challenging for the champions league.
-
Would this be the Jason Puncheon who is now playing in the premier league whilst Antonio bench warms (At best) for a championship side? The footballing god that is antonio has gone from teenage hopeful to SFC legend and the answer to all our prayers since he has left it would seem. Clearly the managers of championship Millwall and premier league Blackpool think he is a better player than Antonio, maybe they should have come to you for advice first though. And as for your comments on what might have happened had two players who left had stayed, well lets speculate on what might have happened if they were still here and ignore all the evidence that Guly has been more effective than both of them. Mind you though i'm sure we'd have done a lot better if Bale, Walcott, Jones & Crouch had stayed.
-
Forte has 2 goals for every start he has made, that is phenomonal record.
-
Paul Allen and Tyler Durden were the best poster S4E ever saw. Tyler Durdens Gaizika Mendieta rumour was a classic piece of saints forum football history. Denied by the club in the echo, great stuff.
-
and Murty trying to crack jokes, p*ss poor as usual.
-
I take it you are one of them then.
-
Indeed he has, he clearly isn't a wide midfielder. The point is though that whilst some bang on that Waigo and Antonio were the answer to all our problems and get on Gullys back, he has been as effective as them in terms of goals scored, in half as many appearances.
-
Despite all these clowns without a clue critiscing Gully, goals win games and Gully has scored the same amount of goals in half the combinded appearances the supposed footballing gods of Papa Waigo and Antonio did for us last season.
-
In Johnno Quick i trust, Nige was right, a goal ratio of 2 goasl per start is a phenominal record at any level.
-
Johnno Quick is the man to start up front against Brighton, with his lightening pace and incredible strength he'll pressure the Brighton defence and keeper into doing something with the ball rather than tapping it between themselves like they do, this will lead to mistakes which he'll exploit with his Johnno Quick pace. He's done everything that can be asked of him since he's been at this fantastic football club and our Nige will ask him to step up the ocky again on saturday and once again Jonno Quick will deliver.

the ones that got away..or left of their own accord
Turkish replied to david in sweden's topic in The Saints
They were all in Gordon Strachans autobiography, he could have made them all up to sell a few extra copies i suppose, but then i doubt Man Utd, Aberdeen and Leeds fans who also brought copy would give a f*ck that Southampton failed to sign a couple of unknown Africans because their chairman was a c*ck. -

I'm pretty sure after the cup final season Strachan also wanted to sign Saha and Malbranque from Fulham and said he could have got the pair for £12m. Lowe said wouldn't do it and said "why would we make our rivals financially stronger and ourselves financially weaker" -
Want to avoid them so much you still read them and posted on this one.
