He's talking balls again.

We should be playing in the Premier League but as every isiot and his dog knows we're barely good enough for the Championship and probably won't be in it come May. Now, explain what you've done to the pr*t, I'd really like to know.

blinding fcking insight...and here's me all this time thinking it's all because we keep letting them in. thanks Mark, my penny's finally dropped.

why have you stuck half of Rupert's head to half of Brian Clough's? I haven't It's got one enormous ear as well.

Be honest, are you ever happier than when your miserable? And why have you stuck half of Rupert's head to half of Brian Clough's?

It was a wet one.

This one beats me. We give him a contract at the beginning of the season (so high wages aren't the issue?), we struggle all season to get crosses in from the flanks, we have no real pace, yet we have a winger who goes like a whippet and we loan him out to rival clubs.

Mickey, I agree that no one person is responsible for the club's predicament, the others running the club over several years share blame with Lowe. But you can't blame the fans. We have no control over the running of the club and little influence (except if we stop going en masse - a high risk strategy). As you say, the fans are the lifeblood of the club. It's about time the club realised that.

Appears he may have been taking more of his company's money than he should have, money which ultimately may cost creditors should the company go under.

Not so bad when it's not your money.

We're always better under floodlights, the dimmer the better.

Seems he's not even capable of getting onto the treatment table let alone the bench.

I seem to remember Channon being called Daisy but I defer to your greater knowledge of all things Saints. Anyway I think you're missing the point. I remember a young Alan Shearer being given stick by some Saints fans away at Highfield Rd one time and he giving it right. But we're talking here about two exceptional characters. Not all players react to criticism in the way that Channon and Shearer did. For a team low on confidence, abuse from the fans (and I'm not saying it happens much at SMS) is not the kind of support it needs. Nor has it anything to do with which cars the players drive. One final observation, it seems to me there are several posters on here that are pretty thin skinned when it comes to criticism but apparently it's ok to give stick to the team they support.

So we can all be better supporters then by giving the players huge amounts of abuse.

I know what you mean but only the manager is in a position to know, if he's any good, whether a bollo*king or an arm round the shoulder is what's required for each individual. I'm bound to say that I've heard little mass criticism of players at SMS this season but if it does happen I can't see how it will achieve what we all want which is wins.

The criticism has to be constructive and it won't be constructive coming from the stands. Apply your approach to your own place of work and consider whether it would produce better or worse results.

We always lose there but nine of us going anyway, just for the hell of it.

That's the kind of thing an 8 year old would say.

"History repeats itself, first as tragedy then as farce".

James deserves a chance in his proper position, he has put in some fantastic balls this season and we could really benefit from these if he was to play in a more advanced position. It's worth a try. He is a good crosser. A great ball in for Saganowski's goal against Norwich. I'd like to see him get further forward before crossing. If we're going to play narrower in midfield, that's a possibility from fullback.

Unbelievable. If he turns out to be inadequate blame those that brought him not the lad himself.

I am giving him a break. I don't expect him to understand the politics. Results on the pitch are all that count.

He can talk as much drivel as he likes if he keeps us up.

It matters very much who signs the players. A manager that doesn't sign players has responsibility without control. If Lowe's doing it, well....we've no chance.

He's been nowhere for long. Looks like we've got a right one here.
