Le Fondre - No Goal & J Rod Should Have Been Sent Off
stknowle replied to Gemmel's topic in The Saints
This. I find it quite agreeable that we have doubled them without conceding a goal, they are going down while we are staying put, they are ****e and we are not, and finally that this set of facts has frustrated their top scorer into making bitter, incorrect and embarrassing comments more befitting of a 10 year old. -
The third being the inaccurate assertion that 'Gaston was crap'. He wasn't amazing, did good and bad but you can see he has class, and if we can train more of the good and less of the bad out of him in the close season we will have a special player on our hands.

Feck's sake we are starting to look like such a good premiership side. Slick passing, taking the absolute p!ss. Just need a bit more ruthlessness needed, which will come next season. AVE IT!!!!!!

Agreed. No need to worry about other results just keep playing like that and winning. Another superb display, although Chelsea came into it more in the 2nd half there was only one moment where they really troubled us, and Davis did brilliantly (I'm not his biggest fan and was really worried when he came on but fair play he did just fine). C'mon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why is hating pompey seen as a bad thing on this forum?

Yours, Mr Logic -
Agreed. And FWIW I also agree that Poyet = Sod.

And where does one look for this quality then Pinky?

'Entertainment' - are you enjoying watching us more under Pochettino?
stknowle replied to 110_Persaint's topic in The Saints
I'd say that in some matches under Adkins' stewardship I was marginally more entertained than in some of the matches played under MP's regime, in others a lot more, in others the entertainment factor has been about the same. It all depends on which match you are comparing with which I suppose, but on balance if I was to gauge overall entertainment levels I'd say I was 73 per cent entertained under N.A and 72.9 per cent under M.P. Who of course could improve on that as he is still manager and has more games to come. -
Are you attached? Just asking like.

Norwich City 0-0 Southampton // Post-Match Reaction
stknowle replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
The thing is we didn't deserve to. We should have won, but because we didn't create much despite all the possession, and because when we did create we missed, we didn't deserve to win. This would be ok if it wasn't happening every week. -
Norwich City 0-0 Southampton // Post-Match Reaction
stknowle replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
FFS that was EXCRUCIATING! I may have topped myself if the penalty had gone in. Why can't we put chances away? Why? Why? Someone explain please. -
It was smash and grab, texted those very words to a QPR supporting mate who even apologised! But the reality is our shots were long, we did feck all with our 70 odd per cent possession, and our sh!t defending on the rare occasions we were attacked allowed the smash and grab to happen.
-
All true I'm afraid. No mitigation whatsoever applies. Don't like witch hunts or scapegoatism but that was simply ridiculous, and should not be seen on premiership pitch.
-
Too easily out foxed by opposition attackers. Needs to show more cunning. Wish he would just foxtrot oscar.
-
Penalty was a bad break, but smashing a clearance into the chest of your centre back who is 3 metres away and can clearly be seen by Fox and everyone else is just bad play.

Newcastle 4-2 Southampton // Post-Match Reaction
stknowle replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
I'm afraid this basically is correct, given Fox was responsible for 2 goals and we lost by 2 goals (accepted he was unlucky for the pen). Fox reminds me in appearance slightly of a young Cliff Richard. I never saw Sir Cliff play but chhdajfu as better cover for Shaw? -
This. Old nick take a look at yourself, Morgan has been a fine player for 3+ seasons now.
-
TBF if everyone held back on posting an opinion about how bad they thought a player was/is for fear said player might improve thereby making the opinion look stupid, there would be a lot less activity on this forum. Anyway, **** arguing about all that tonight, and let's just celebrate!

That was su fecking purb and the tipping point where the quality performances are finally rewarded with the 3 points they deserve. Cork and Schneiderlin are an IMMENSE engine room. They just totally took the **** out of the current champion's midfield and did the same 2 weeks ago to this years champions. A couple of quality acquisitions in the summer and we are going to absolutely FLY next season. COYFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When is Ramirez going to start justifying his price-tag?
stknowle replied to Sheaf Saint's topic in The Saints
You say that but he was **** today. I aint one for scapegoats but If all 12m buys you is that miss in the first half.... He HAS to do better than that. -
Jesus fecking Christ WHEN are we going to start winning these ****ing games that we dominate!!! Words cannot express the level of frustration.

Jason Bowen. Scott Hiley. Imants Bleidelis.

and Richard Hall. What a centre back he was. Shame he got injured. Yes, but fortunate we sold him to Redknapp's Wham apprx 3 months before the injury! Damn shame for the lad though, always rated him.
