  1. Notice Esther Rantzen crawling out of the woodwork to claim she'd always heard rumours about Savile's love of young girls and how she thinks he was guilty. Obviously she didn't bother to tell anyone or bring it up before now, must have been too busy setting up Childline.
  2. If he did do something, which without a fair trial and proper investigation by police will never be proven either way, it will be a shame that he will never have to answer for his actions, however if it transpires that people were aware of allegations and did not investigate, then why not? Here's an OK article that tries to explain how paedophile can often get away with it for so long even after the finger is pointed at them. http://www.newyorker.com/arts/critics/atlarge/2012/09/24/120924crat_atlarge_gladwell
  3. The big worry is not only that we concede too much, but that as soon as we concede we seem to lose our bottle and concede again very quickly.
  4. Would be interesting to know how long Morgan is out for, hopefully Adkins will elaborate in his post match interview.
  5. Better second half, but Everton played like a side who knew the job was done. Felt bad for JWP, injuries meant he had to play but he was always fighting a losing battle with a juggernaut like Fellaini on him but he never gave up. Mayuka was lively when he was put on, direct and not afraid to burst forward. Surely he has to get a start soon, Rodriguez didn't really add much today.
  6. As soon as Everton equalised it we just capitulated and started to embarrass ourselves. Lallana needs to give Clyne some support, Coleman and Mirallas are often 2 on 1 with Clyne and we've paid for it. Hopefully we can try to pass it 2nd half, far to many hopeless long balls and aimless early crosses.
  7. Notice Everton have Heitinga and Jagielka at CB, RL should be able to exploit their lack of height.
  8. Rodriguez out wide again? FFS
  9. The way people are talking you'd think we were playing Barcelona on Saturday. Everton are a very good side no doubt about it, but if we can press high up the pitch and get our passing game going like we did 2nd half against Villa we can get something. There is no point trying to defend deep or "park the bus" as we are too poor at the back to do this successfully against any side in this league. Gazza Richardson Fonte Yoshida Clyne Schneiderlin Davis Puncheon Ramirez Lallana Lambert Subs: Boruc, Rodriguez, Mayuka, Jos, Fox, JWP, Guly
  10. Someone saw him with a cast on his arm a week or so ago, club hasn't said anything though.
  11. You can find a list of out of contract LBs on transfermarkt.co.uk, though it doesn't redirect properly when I link it for some reason familiar faces include Asier Del Horno Djimi Traore (lol) Thimothee Atouba Sebastian Boenisch
  12. I agree, Yoshida was really good yesterday and Fonte looked much better for having someone next to him who can cover his lack of pace. Remains to be seen how well Jos plays next to him. But on yesterday's evidence a Yoshida/Fonte partnership should see us through until January when we will have the opportunity to bring in someone better to play alongside Yoshida.
  13. only 32, kept 14 clean sheets last season for Fiorentina
  14. I would have thought if he plays Tuesday, there's a good chance he won't start against Everton as Adkins likes to rest as many first choice players as possible in these cup games.

    Yoshida

    I was also impressed with the way he was willing to bring the ball forward himself if there wasn't a pass on and he had a bit of space.
  16. I readily bashed Fonte before the season started and during the first few games but him and Yoshida looked a good pairing today.
  17. Excellent second half, we tore them a new one and could have scored more than the four we got. Clyne and Puncheon should be given credit for bouncing back from their first half stinkers. Ramirez was brilliant, second half he was playing people through on goal almost at will. Mayuka also looks like a useful player, hopefully we can see what he's like over 90 minutes in midweek.
  18. Mayuka on down the right please.
  19. He was there for the goal, for some reason he just decided to let Bent shoot.
  20. Yoshida was MOM first half for me, nothing he or Fonte could have done about the goal.
  21. Yoshida must be thinking what he's gotten himself into considering the level of defensive talent around him.
  22. Fox, Clyne, Puncheon have had stinkers first half. Lambert and Lallana not much better.
  23. I don't think Kelvin will be ousted just yet, however if his performances don't improve then something has to be done and IMO if Gazzaniga isn't good enough to step in when the number 1 is injured/off form/not good enough then it seems like a waste of time in signing him.
  24. Would be a good signing, but if their source is bleacherreport.com I doubt there is much mileage in this story.
  25. I agree that Cortese is more likely to act sooner rather than later if we don't start picking up points now we've played all our toughest early fixtures. However, the OP's post is not based in reality as nothing Saints related has been on sky all afternoon.
