Dalek2003

A rude awakening for the 'rose tinted spectacle brigade'. I have to say I was expecting a rough ride this season and warned against a European debacle. Silver lining is it is only the Europa that doesn't really matter anyway.

You could be right

We need a really on form sriker buzzing with confidence, a creative midfielder and Cb. We also need an experienced leade in the middle of the pitch. We have the money but we have not spent what is needed to move on. I would take 17th right now.

Another Dalek...it is like an invasion. The lonley Dalek no more !

That's about it. We got lucky last season. I said before the star of the season that unless we showed a bit of intent in the transfer market RK would be off. We are employing a risky strategy with the yoyo strategy in mind if we get relegated. 2003 WGS all over again....now where is Glenn Hoddle....?

...The Imperial Dalek has been located !

Well what a lot of attention seekers on the forum tonight. LOL

Maybe he understands how weak the team is this year and wants out of Europe asap.

We were never set up for Europe, yes it is a distraction.

As I've dais all along, we should concentrate on securing our Premier League future. I am not worried about defeat tonight, more about what Norwich will do on Sunday.

We are once again considering the 'yoyo' strategy !

He's off.

Saints don't do bidding wars...so we could be out.

For our sake I hope Jayrod does 'pull it together'. We need to get through this season without the debacle of relegation. Then we can worry about next season.

We have got to pay the going rate. Failure to land this target will show complete lack of ambition and could see a mass exodus in the next 12 months including the manager. As I said this is a defining moment of intent.

Could be a defining moment of the season !

Ramirez could be one of the most influential players if he did not spend so much time in the treatment room.

A run out for the reserves I suppose.

Saving him for the European game maybe ?

I said 15th to 16th this year, do you still want the bet ?

Surely it is time to to Gaston Ramirez another shot, maybe in the European game as this is less important than the PL.

Sounds like a medical as opposed to a mental issue. Hope they sort it as an in form Tadic is what we need.

It is just as relevant to the 'rose tinted spectacle brigade'.

We 'lost the race for 8th' last season with Swansea and the Hammers got the wooden spoon.

I wouldn't let CB Fry put you off posting, this is what he wants. An autocrat of the forum LOL.
