Nonsense. You can't judge a persons motivations, ambitions, ethos, rationale, etc etc without knowing or understanding them. MLT doesn't know cortese. I don't, you don't and nor do others on here. We all make snap judgements though. They're all based on the decisions that we know of, and the tittle tattle we here. MLT is no better placed to make an accurate assessment than me or you.

He was superb tonight. His reading of the game is superb. Kind of a Japanese Paul Parker.
-
He impressed me bigtime tonight. Big, strong, confident, safe hands and saves. Top class.
-
I agree. Maybe not in this game, but I think Gaston will get the armband sooner rather than later. Not deserved but entirely possible.

Lawrenson 0-2 prediction and comments on new manager
egg replied to Saints Warrior's topic in The Saints
Yes, he'll know they're footballers and will know about as much as we all can gauge from watching players on video and YouTube. De Ridder looked sh!t hot on video but looks plain sh!t in the flesh, for example. Ok, he'll know something about some of our players. He won't know enough about them all though and I think that's the valid point that was being made. -
Lawrenson 0-2 prediction and comments on new manager
egg replied to Saints Warrior's topic in The Saints
He'll have watched videos of matches, and possibly training, but he won't know the players. He'll struggle to put names to all faces. He won't know their personalities, how able they are to act on instructions etc etc. Moreover he won't have a rapport with them and is unlikely to have earned their respect. Lawro was wrong about Ramirez, and can be a tool but he's right in this article. -
His record in Spain was decent before his players were sold. His teams playing style was very good. There's no doubt he's got pedigree. Language worries me though, a lot. Subject to that, this could be a very good (but appallingly executed) move.

What's objectionable about that article? Seems perfectly fair and accurate to me. Lawro can be a tool but some of you lot need to understand that the truth isn't anti saints bias or unprofessional reporting etc. -
Would be a brilliant move for NA and Leeds. It's a proper club which should be in the Prem.
-
The chances have increased. The players will have to adapt to new ideas and probably systems. That will take time. I fear we'll regress in the short term, beyond that who knows. I think we'll become predictable. Gaston will play in the hole come rain or shine. No more 442 with CB' s at full back where height and muscle needed.
-
Inevitable after his recent performances. It wouldn't surprise me if he makes the full squad very soon.
-
It's hard to disagree with that. This is a 442 game, a bit like Stoke away. We need to take the game to them. Feeling good about this one. 3-1 to us.

Where's Reeves? Injured?
-
Pittstop in Pitt Road, Shirley are decent as are Browdon Motors in Shirley. I've used them both for stuff that many back street garages would run a mile from and they've both been superb.
-
Nexus is better. The other one is worse and the wrong colour. Keep what you have - complete no brainer!

I suspect his kid was delighted to be sent to bed.

Jeez Charlie, you're unreal. For a bloke who writes a lot, you're a poor reader. I try to ignore Turkish posts but even I know his opinion on this. I've asked you, Turkish has asked, as have others. What was wrong with Guly performance on Tuesday, and how did not make a positive contribution to the team?
-
It's a decent little contract too and gave him a massive payrise on his initial contract. It was also an incremental contract which put his weekly wage up by a lot after 10 appearances, then 20 etc. He was given the contract, then the games, so is/was rated.
-
He's a player who until a couple of years ago was playing part time in the Conference South. In his first year as a pro he looked half decent in the championship. We then got promoted and as a novice he found himself a player on the books a Premier League but himself not yet ready to be a Premier league player. The decision to loan him out to get games at championsip level was a good one. If he got the time he may have shown enough improvement to add something to our squad, or alternatively improved in value and moved on. As it was he hasn't got the games which is a shame. To judge him based on his age alone is wrong. He's an inexperienced pro and still only 23. For me I think he has a future as a decent championship player, and with games could possibly make the grade at the top level.

Sunrise, the naming if JD was inevitable after the manner of his arrest. The way that was handled was a disgrace and the daily mail article above is spot on. Whilst I can't see how it can be in the public interests to charge the likes of JD for such stale offences, my gut feel is that the cps/police will come under pressure to make an example of someone. The nature of JD arrest makes me feel he could be the whipping boy. He's certainty a softer target than Max Clifford and some of the others who have been named.

I ditched clinique m for the same reason. Gillette, Nivea etc don't compare. Original source is cracking value and believe it or not the lidl sensitive gel is amazing.
-
That's the other lad I was thinking of. league 1 loans seem to be the progression from u21 games so the likes of Seager move up to the u21 team giving another lad a chance in the u18. The academy and development system is so good that I'm sure that no loan move would be sanctioned without looking at the impact down the chain.
-
It'll give game time for the likes of lee though, and give chances for other youngsters like Sinclair that have been in Hoskins shadows. The conveyer belt has to keep rolling etc.
-
I think he's been asked that about half a dozen times now Del, but he won't/can't answer. The best he's come up with was that Puncheon was apparently better and that Guly didn't score.

Tdd, for me I'm not stating the name I've heard because I don't think it's my place to put it in the public domain. I'm well aware how I could post it without libelling anyone or exposing the site but i get nothing out of doing so why bother.
