  1. Yeah about that…..
  2. A golden thread
  3. How many goals was it we conceded from giving it away whilst doing exactly that. 12 wasn’t it or something like that
  4. Define doing better than most i found out in Brussels this week they the Belgians who are employed are entitled to automatic pay rises by law in line with inflation what a great system that is. of course no issue with paying more the more you earn the issue is that when you get to a certain level you’re giving nearly half you wage in income tax and still they want more. The point was is there really any point striving for more when you don’t really see a huge benefit from it. Of course your house and car won’t be as nice, less luxuries but does any of that really matter at the end of the day?
  5. Maybe there is a nod back here to the is life really all that thread - which we all mocked years ago the more you earn and better you do the more they want - every year despite having always been PAYE I have to do a tax return it never goes in my favour and I always owe more i pay 40% in a good year some time 45% of my wage in tax plus a compulsory tax on my pension which they insist I now pay toward. I live in a house now where the council tax is more than double where we previously lived all in all is it really worth even aspiring to be successful in this day and age? It certainly seems doing fuck all with out the pressure of a job is a much better world than actually working for a living and trying to better yourself and they fuck you
  6. @The Kraken @CB Fry remember the days when we were assured even Alan Pardew could win the league at Man United. It was an easy job which even the most average managers could be successful and Fergie was just an average manager who got lucky
  7. I don’t usually but today was a reason too very excited 🤝🤝🤝🤝

    Will Still

    I always remember in about 1988 saints best Scarborough 1-0 in the then litttlewoods cup after a 2-2 draw at their place and Rod Wallace was on the same bus as us home back to townhill Park how football and life has changed
  9. Tbf the nice bit of Glasgow in mile better than anything ocean village has to offer. It’s a great city if you know where to go It’s absolutely laughable people who have never left Southampton which is one of the dullest cities in Europe slag off places like Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds, London etc
  10. A few Leffes drink Meetings done and VERY productive they were too, now a bit of time to chill out and see what comes next. A VERY exciting few months ahead.
  11. Yeah all major deals are struck in Funchal pal 🙄🙄🙄🙄
  12. That’s @Crab Lungs doupleganger. wait is he Russell Martin?
  13. And Stephens please
  14. Just like Jason Wilcox, who I see has just been promoted by Man United despite having their worst season in about 50 years he’s built his brand well and seems to be very highly rated in certain circles despite not achieving very much
  15. Lucy isn’t going to snash her own back doors in
  16. Im Just putting it out there too my movements for the next few week Brussels today- friday Copenhagen 11-13 June Stockholm 17th June London 23.rd June tbc Make of that what you will
  17. There wasn’t one as our silence confirmed despite too trying to coax us into a discussion another Win for the CoT
  18. Im back in Belgium for a few days, Brussels to be exact where I was last time. Last time I was here the betting markets put will Still as as odds on favourite to be a new manager. I don’t think this one will move as quick but a VERY interesting development over the last 48 hours
  19. Really? I thought it was fucking shit. It’s blue for a start. Best kits for me were the keegan/patrick kit, the sash, the le tissier, rod Wallace 89/90 kit for aways the yelloW and blue 76 kit obviously, the 2003 cup final kit and the all white 89/90 away with a turquoise style trim
  20. Sheffield United will be a threat next season as well as the relegated sides. Luton was an anomaly usually the relegated teams makes a good fist at “re promotion” I know people will point to Norwich and Watford as teams who struggled on relegation but even they finished a couple of wins outside play offs first season down and norwich made play off second season. the fact is the vast majority of teams don’t struggle, but then we do like to reinvent football don’t we…….
  21. What an era that was. Packed stadiums, English football in its prime and a Saints team packed full of quality that were a match for anyone in the country. That period must have been like a dream for Saints fans, the cup win, promotion, a league cup final, top 6 finishes the norm, signing Keegan, Shilton. It’s just a shame we didn’t win more as we really could and should have won a few more trophies. We will never see that era again.
  22. It means he’s shit
  23. Why would Cortese be asking you to buy him next seasons kit?
  24. Why do you need to wait and see? we bounced straight back up, so did Leicester, Burnley have done it twice in 3 years, Leeds did it within 2 years. Of the last 6 teams to be relegated before this season 3 came straight back up, 1 came back up after 2 seasons and one of them lost in the play offs. 5 of the 6 finished in the top 4 of their first season in the championship. Let’s not make out it’ll the greatest resurrection since Lazarus
