or trust your better informed opinion of made up facts? not hard to decide. You may not like them but they know what is going on and can understand it unlike you.

jesus why is it so difficult to see high cost and low revenue is a problem! you are clearly on a wind up and not serious so will smile and move on!

net result isn't the same -we will save a 17 point deduction!

he won't! He did ok at best. 3 wins. Never really got above mid-table with GB last season -yes but would have dreamt of that any time after!

no by most posters predicting doom and gloom over the summer, you missed it while in exile!

it was well posted on here that Euell Davies Davis Surman Dyer Rasiak John would all go and no one in

we do not know where the balance lies so unfortunately have to trust those who do

the books have to balance first, we can only have the players we can afford. Its not complicated. To make it easier to understand, would it make sense to sign top premiership players we can't afford on the basis that we may get better results, crowds and promotion but then go bust?

I can't say I remember who said what, think most were defending him on some issues and moaning about others but believing he was not a bad manager. I still believe that although think the momentum had gone. I believe if he stayed up we would have been about 8-13th. The slide was when he left and continued after NP arrived. Bottom line I always feared that if he went he would not be replaced by Mourinhio but a worse option so why continually call for him to go? This proved right.

think that's a fair reply.

they didn't rule out additions at the forum

no solvency is

think the one 12 months ago would have given it a bit of competition -possibly was worse as it had no Svensson, Perry, Davies or Thomas for CB;)

think it was fickle more the other way -i.e. GB was so poor anyone could do better and we should sack him and do better -he left -we did worse.

sure they could be used but could they have been paid? Get realistic not personal, its not complicated -we have no money!

oh it would be so easy to bite and start it all again!

better replies than mine!

I was calling for him not to be sacked in many arguements/debates. I said in many threads that I was not convinced we would get better if he went and probably worse. That happened and we dropped into a relegation battle. We were under performing -as we have done for years. The West Ham friendly was the first saints team that seemed to over perform in years.

another one is the ashamed to agree with Scooby lot! Really can't see the point, don't feel they would represent my views and am realistic about the sort of business football is.

think its more accurate to say "for sale" rather than "to be sold". Will depend on who is interested and how much we get for first one to go etc as finances may look better.

of course more money would be better just don't want to keep going backwards with change for change sake

You are right to talk about those players in the past tense - there is so much more excitement, even if it doesn't quite come off, with young players than over the hill journey men pros. Perry/Wooton are here for different reasons -leaders on the training pitch and back up -doubt either will be regular first teamers.

1) two wrongs don't make a right, thought NP deserved a chance. 2) from what I have seen and heard I believe they will do better for us than NP would have 3) NP is trying to sign Paul ****ov and Robbie Savage -I guess that is the type of player he would have got for us. Think would prefer to see Scneiderlin and McGoldrick!

manager says that Svensson will be rested for mid week games during first half of season
