Would you go as far as to say it's an intolerable position?

It's the same every summer isn't it? Different owners, different manager, same old crappy seaside B&B. We really adrift on the brown stuff without a paddle. Like you i'm really disapointed with our transfers this summer. It's been nothing short of shambolic yet again. It's a good job you and I are around to wake people up to how bad things are otherwise people would continue to bury their heads in the sand. We're used to it now though, it's been like it for the last 6 season. We've got lucky up until now but if people arent worried this summer they should be.

It's no wonder missus The 9 spends most nights asleep on the sofa.

Sue posting just after me. Is she confirming she's still a self obsessed mentalist or am I doing her an injustice?

Bet your praying for us to get an Italian team ain't yah. Didn't you live there once?

Think if we so being two CBs in one would be on loan. Also completely agree with those who say we need a DM we are lightweight without Wanyama so could do with someone of a similar type.

If i see anyone wearing one of these the very least they can expect is a giant foam hand wrapped round their cannister.

And don't you dare walk in the corridor the same time as me. Does anyone know if they kept his personal lift at staplewood? The dwarf would have loved that.

Easy to say that when you're guarenreed a ticket ?

He's right though. People might not like it but ask anyone if they'd want a couple of thousand drunk English football fans wondering round their city and they'll all tell you the same answer. We aren't Millwall but we do have a lot of Wallies who can't handle their beer. We'll have the issue of the Dutch Police having to police the game as usual as well as all the fans around the town. If they start getting heavy handed then it could well be a recipe for trouble. It's all very well for people to say that they'd just think fair enough if they don't get in and go back to pub but anyone who has been abroad for football will tell you that the local police in some places aren't an accommodating bunch.

@skysports news sources understands reports confirming southampton are doing nothing to signing a centre back are at an advanced stage. Sources understand no bids have accepted and no one us due for a medical

Nothing. Annoying isn't. You'd think we'd be all over this position trying to find someone, anyone will do just so we can announce a signing. It's the half arsed complacent attitude to the transfer market you've drawn out attention to every summer since 2009. You can change the board, change the divison, change the manager but we're still run like a crappy seaside B&B. I strongly believe unless we see somwthing happening on a centre back from NOW we are adrift in the brown stuff without a paddle. I'm not just saying it because it's you but i'm really disapointed in our transfer activity this summer and if people arent worried they should be.

You sure you wont be struggling to stay awake inside the ground like you did in Spain last year? Or be smashed and in bed before kick off like you were in Blackpool 3 years ago?

Danny Fox was one of those players who was a whipping boy from the day he joined. For some reason the fans never took too him and people seem to have short memories. He was part of one of the best defences in the championship, as well as this he was credited with 13 assists in our promotion season, second only to Rickie Lambert. IN the first 3/4s of the season he was fine but as we started to struggle towards the end of the season fans got his back but in truth the way we played didn't help him. He's not the quickest and if people recall how we set up that season we played mostly 4-4-2 with Lallana on the left ahead of him. Lallana, for all his attributes is not a great defensive midfielder so Fox would get little proteciton from in front of him, with a big part of his job being to play high up the pitch to provide crosses into the box for Lambert, which his assist total proves he did well meaning he was always going to be exposed against the "pacy wideman" as we saw on a few occasions, such as Blackpool away. That's not to say he was a premier league player, he is a decent championship full back, nothing more nothing less. Never going to make a Premier league player, much like Jos Hooliveld and just like him he played an important part in our promotion. But whilst Hooliveld is a bit of a fans favourite who people remember affectionatly, Fox competes with Guly for the boo boys favourite from that season. Shame really that even in great times like we are in fans cant appreciate what a player did for us because they never liked him for no real reason.

To be fair moving several hundred Wisla Krokow lunatics is a damn sight tougher than the Saints fans that'll be gathered in blocks 122 if our usual away support is anything to go by. It'll be middle aged women with tupperware boxes of fairycakes, blokes in clown suits and road cone hats, with the odd drunken fatty with his shirt over a hoodie not quite covering his gut.

Calm down guys, Vitesse have nothing but respect for our firm. The only violence that will take place will be the Vitesse firm fighting each other to be the first to get autographs of their heroes. You've clearly forgotten the DEF are Europes most notorious hooligan army so I'd expect the Vitesse lads to either lock themselves in their houses or off saints the foam hand of friendship for fear of a DEF backlash which no firm wants to come up against. Just look out for this flag In and around the stadium and you know you're in safe hands.

I remember the day Adkins was sacked people insisted that morning the media stories that he was on his way were all made up by lazy, lying scumbag journos

Let's hope we get a decent allocation, seems like everyone is going!

Thank you sir. Tell us a bit more about your team and city please. Be good to get the local view of good places to drink , stay etc.

Yes, my recommendation wasn't looking too good for a while was it, especially as none of us had any idea how serious of financial plight was at that time. it turned out for the best in the end rhoigh.

I think you'll find it was me that recommended him, I even posted about It along with a copy of the email I sent to the club all those years a go. Who'd have thought 'dorkish' would be scouting £25m players. http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/archive/index.php/t-47224.html

credit it where it's due young man, that's a pretty good article. As for the subject matter, it's the only way we are going to succeed. We cant afford to match the big boys of for the top talent so we need to get them early or a few rough diamonds, The best ones will go to the top clubs for big money, then reinvest the money to find the next one. I'd certainly much rather be a showcase club than a club which takes expensive faliures that are out to pasture.

"Connor Armstrong is reporting" I think you mean Connor Armstrong tweeted something he read elsewhere on Twitter.

"You are only making a fool of yourself mate" Said the bloke who thinks he ain't making a fool of himself, who created a login and is getting oh so angry on another clubs forum trying to convince everyone how big his club are.
