  1. That short video just sums up how high Ron used to jump. I have never seen anyone jump like that sinse..... Awesome Ron. We had many great players in those days but you were just the best centre foward - certainly in this country....
  2. Didn't Drew say quite publicly that, the time had come for him to move on. He did elaborate on this at the time in an interview that was published. He basically said it was time for him to seek further challenges. Whilst the money was undoubtedly needed I am sure his career did indeed need to take the next step and achieving this with Saints looked a million miles away at the time. Also dare I say that as someone else mentioned who would we drop to bring Drew back in? This beggers the further question (puts on his helmet!) If he's struggling to get in the Wolves team and we can't decide if he would get our team now - how good was he? He looked good for us last year but we were very poor both as a team and in most cases, evidently individually!
  3. It wasn't so much the system that turned the game Saturday as the personel change. If Antonio had been on the pitch instead of PW at the start we may well have won by a wider margin with the same 4-5-1 formation.....
  4. Continually selling our best players got us into this mess in the first place. To repeat that exercise would not be the best advice would it!!!! If they're under contract keep them - we can afford to so why would we contemplate selling them - I ask you!
  5. I thought L J struggled a bit today against MK Dons. He didn't come under a lot of pressure but was stretched to compete with a very average wide player. His first two free kicks in the first half in great positions were both short of their intended targets. Thinks this is his level, hes not going to be able to stay in this team for long and not in a higher league for sure.
  6. Waigo is plainly not ready for the first team yet and will probably be replaced by Antonio anyway as first choice. If Connoly was to start then it is one of Hammond or as today Wotton who would have to go and I don't think many people would disagree with Wotton stepping aside.......
  7. Simply MOTM sign him up!
  8. Great result. Antonio was the difference once he came on. Think Papa has a lot to learn about the game before he can be selected as a first choice player - a poor mans Dyer in the first half plus caught offside by yards too often. I would fully endorse previous comments that Antonio is well considering as a permanent buy and was my man of the match. I know it's a great result again but in particular the first half long ball game was a poor strategy. Our team is far better than this tactic shows us to be - please can we keep it on the floor more......We are good enough to do this......
  9. Liverpool - Alan Pardew...............come on, that's very funny indeed.....
  10. Ron Davies - just the greatest. I will carry memories of watching the great Ron from the boys chocolate box with me for ever.....Our thoughts are with you Ron.
  11. Retain your sense of humor and read the thread - it's a spoof - oh never mind!!
  12. That's a blinder - I liked Lowe too errrrr until he sacked Pearson but he's still a lovely man..............
  13. Oh yes nice one.............but can't bring myself to tonight as the garden is soooooooo rosy!!!!
  14. Call me shallow and agest but........oh, go on then! Must be under 20 stone though!
  15. I don't love you - and never will - unless 25 ish blond and Swedish! And female!
  16. Nice one Mongo. Obviously very knowledgeable about football and Saints. AP hasn't signed one decent player...... ooooooww !!!
  17. This just goes to show this team are world beaters!
  18. This is deadly. We win a couple of games and the strong opinions disappear. Can someone please be controversial. I suppose if we loose tomorrow things will get pretty hot again but if we win! By Tuesday it will be like a mortuary on here...... I'm going to make a start...... If Connely plays where the hell does AL fit in? It's a bit like Rooney for England. He's a dam good player but we often struggle as a team when he plays. If we go 442 again that's only two to look after when we attack but with two breaking midfielders there are three to look after. That's not very controversial on reflection - well I tried. Bring back Pearson - at any price we would be top of the league by now with him in charge - any better????
  19. Oh excellent comment - Taste of own medicine comes to mind - shame.....lol
  20. Christ there are times when you have to say my face doesn't fit here. He was very decent for us last year and would be again if given half the chances useless Wotton has been given! Yes, Yes I know, Wotton has had at least one good game for us but does that make a summer? I like Gillet pitty he's off but that's life. He was probably a victime of the fact that we had a lot of short players and that just had to change. We probably lost many games before they even started last year - in the tunnel, with so many titchies stood beside all the giants you come across in football these days the psychological disadvantage would be significant.....
  21. Forecast is bright? I heard he was suspect - is he playing ?
  22. That was hilarious. Well done to the guy - good to see from the opposing fan point of view and quite well developed. Don't we have someone who could do the same?
  23. Yeh Wottons vision for the long pass is just awesome - would of thought one one the big boys will be in for him in January........ooowwwww should we cash in?
  24. This is by far the funniest post I've ever seen on here - Wotton and football brain ummmmm now that's put a big smile on my face......
