hypochondriac

I think when the fanbase is this united in wanting him gone it really just seems like delaying the inevitable if we don't get rid. The worst thing is we have shown zero signs of improvement and he doesn't think we are doing anything wrong.

Ah well. If that's the case then at least we had a really decent run and some fond memories (including Europe.) would have been good to win a cup though before any implosion.

I can't believe he won't be sacked next week should we lose to Everton

It's clearly a bit of both. Some of our players have performed disgracefully for almost a year now but our team should be capable of more than losing every game comfortably with barely a handful of shots on target.

Slag him off all you want - I certainly have- but Cortese would have binned this clown weeks ago.

It's OK. If we lose the next game comfortably then he will be out. Lets hope it's not too late to avoid relegation.

Weren't there rumours that puel was sacked because he didn't think there was anything wrong with the way we played? If true then surely pellegrino is on borrowed time?

It's the mentality of collectivism. It makes it much easier for him to lump everyone under the "racist" banner when the reality is we are all individuals with differing motivations and opinions. It's hard for a collectivist to grasp.

Ah the classic defence of "you didn't read my posts properly!" it couldn't possibly be that your posts contained the usual contradictory lines and falsehoods so as to obscure the actual point of them.

It has no bearing either way on his ability to manage Southampton. How he performs at a different club at a different time with different players and in a different setup has no relevance to his time at saints.

Puel doing well at Leicester would prove nothing. Having poorer players undoubtedly has an impact, but the players we have are capable of more than they are currently showing. Given the right incentives and coaching we could at the very least score more goals and play a more entertaining brand of football.

Still struggling to understand why this is relevant to a thread about terrorist attacks.

Don't let mentally deranged fantasists like soggy chase you off the site. The more people that can stem the tide of his inanity and challenge his falsehoods the better!

There's a reason why this topic is discussed to a greater degree than many other topics and I've outlined some of the reasons why above. It certainly isn't because every contributor is a racist bigot who hates all Muslims though I accept that could be the case for a tiny minority of posters.

No thank you. Next.

You realise soggy that not every act of violence is terrorism right? Because your post above reads like you're trying to suggest that stabbing someone is always an act of terrorism. And what do you mean by "the problem we face does not revolve predominantly around Islam?" Surely that depends what "the problem" is defined as? If we are looking at acts of violence and regressive thinking in the service of an extremist ideology then Islam is a significant percentage of the problem, particularly when you like at Islam as the percentage of the population. No one has EVER suggested that there are not problems with violence or social problems unrelated to Islam, all anyone has ever said is that there is clearly a problem within the Islamic community which needs addressing- a topic which is naturally going to come up more frequently on this thread which is about terrorism rather than the "random acts of violence" thread. Now go ahead and do what you usually do which is to read into my post whatever you like and ignore what I've actually said.

No thanks. Doesn't really have any of the skills we are missing.

Exactly. All the faux outrage over some people clapping is ridiculous. It's entirely the fault of the clubs for muddying the waters by calling for silence or applause whenever they feel like it. If it had always just stayed as silence then it wouldn't be an issue now.

Disagree. If I shoved a trumpet up my arse and farted numerous times into it in an attempt to create a vague approximation of the last post that I'd consider that a pretty poor rendition.

Wasn't he a plumber? Or was that someone else?

That's incredibly sad if it's the same guy.

With hindsight that is a terrible window.

Truer words never spoken!

Agreeing with a single point that that harpie made in no way equates to a general support for her or anything she stands for. Best to make that clear in case you try to twist my words later down the line as you are inclined to do. All a load of speculation from yourself as usual with no proof at all that those who condemn Islamic terror attacks would not also condemn other acts of terror - if this is indeed what this is. Besides, there are a plethora of reasons why someone in the UK would consider Islamic terrorism to be of more relevance to their lives and a problem more worthy of deeper discussion than gun legislation in the United States. The higher number of Islamic terror attacks that have affected the people of this country compared to mass shootings in the UK for one. I went to no lengths to derail the conversation, you are the one who demonstrated a fundamental lack of understanding of religion when you erroneously claimed that Katie hopkins was more likely to be a Christian because she compared herself to jesus despite this being the opposite of what a religious person would do. Absolutely barmy you are if you think I "picked up on my own bias." please show me where this is the case? I've been consistent in my beliefs throughout this thread, you're the one who twists the words of others and imagines fictional scenarios where I have suddenly seen my own biases- an idiot phrase parroted by brain dead social justice warriors- and decided to change my mind. You're a head case who has compared multiple rapes in cologne with nights out in Maidstone and tried to pretend that me agreeing with one statement uttered by that vile woman hopkins meant that I supported her in general. You're also a dishonest liar who ignores posts you have no answer for- see above- and have been embarrassed continuously on this thread because you're so close minded and bigoted that you cannot tolerate a view that differs from your own- see your laughable attempts to try to pretend that I hate all Muslims or that I'm a white nationalist. If you continue to try to put words in my mouth, make false claims about things you believe I have said and generally make a fool of yourself then I will continue to repeat myself and point these out to you so that there is a record of your stupidity.

It's an entirely separate issue and both issues should be tackled. America has a particular problem with guns but that is not the case in Britain and other parts of the world to the same extent. Arguing about which is "worse" is asinine. Globally both cause huge loss of life and both have been used to commit numerous atrocities and the more people admit this and look to tackle both problems sensibly the better for everyone involved.
