What a pathetic response. You do understand that supporting your nation and your club can be done at the same time with no conflict of interest right?

Abolutely no comparison and it is silly to have an either or scenario. I support Southampton and England.

Absolute rubbish. Carrol was really decent when he came on IMO. Held the ball up really well, offered another option and did more when he came on than the odious Rooney.

Niemi in goal

I thought he was a security guard or something at the training ground.

Regardless, I hope you see what I am getting at. Over the entirety of the season we overperformed whereas West Ham underperformed but then looked to get their act together by the end. They also have a lot of pevious Premiership experience which means they may hit the ground running and be a force immediately next year. I have no problem at all with however long we take to make signings as long as we make them and they are of sufficient quality to survive in this league. Jay Rodriguez was a great start IMO though I do feel that Championship to Premiership is a much greater leap than league one to NPC. We need t be ruthless and relegate the likes of Hammond to reserve status and bring in players who are clearly better. I feel confident this will happen!

IMO we overperformed at the start and took a lot of teams by surprise and continued our momentum from the year before. West Ham clearly had a stronger squad than us and by the end of the season they started to live up to their expectations. With our difficlt start it may be difficult to build a head of steam. i hope we strengthen as much as West Ham and Reading do and as I said, I'm sure we will.

From Decembr:

Anyone have some info on Davis?

Our form was worse than West ham and Readings. I hope we strengthen considerably and I am sure we will!

Yep. We fell away towards the end of the season compared to the beginning. I hope we strengthen significantly (good start with Jay Rod!)

I haven't, but a few of my friends have who I would previously gone to a couple of games with a season. It's the clubs loss really.

That seems ridiculous. In effect it means I can never go with any of my friends who are season ticket holders. It means I will probably go to less games.

I don't think creating some PR to attract corporate sponsorship is a bad thing (it's actually a good and logical step), but I thought the video itself is a bit overly dramatic. You see?

Sending it to fans is a good bit of PR but IMO the DVD and that PDF file from the other day looks and reads like a device to attract corporate sponsors and for the business community. Again it's just my opinion.

I wasn't...

I don't think it's just PR spin, I just wouldn't be surprised if the primary motivation for the video was for PR purposes and to attract sponsors and more corporate clients- and that isn't a bad thing.

Quite correct! Could well be the case though I reckon we would be more likely to sell after establishing ourselves in the Premiership as tat would be when we get the best price

Blaming the symptom and not the cause?

Just confirms what I thought in that it is a PR piece and would be a good thing to show potential sponsors or corporate clients.

Bit overly dramatic IMO.

I don't think I have ever encountered such a weird person before either online or offline. I wonder if he is like that in real life?

Just ignore MLG. To any sensible person Villa and Everton are clearly bigger than saints. People who think otherwise are morons and there is nothing else to talk about.

But all games will be available online. That will be a significant factor for many I believe.
