Could Sholing Sports have beaten West Ham, because Everton did 4-0 , 3 days after they played us with the same manager. Anyway, what’s Ferguson got do don’t with it, seeing as it was David Unsworth who managed them.

(If we go down) what will you miss about the Premierleague?

Just listened to it. Merrington who has been all Winston Churchill all season “you need to look them in the eye, are they up for it, are you going to fight for the shirt”, now makes excuses for Boufal. Also talking Shiite saying that Fonte was still performing when we got rid, his West Ham form shows that isnonsense. I’d also suggest that before embarking on a discussion on staying up you find out how many points we’re from safety first. It’s 4 not 5 as stated. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

We’re still getting the same pony we got with Gaston, “he clearly has talent”. **** off, Mr Woo had talent, that doesn’t make him a premier league player. “He’d be great in Italy or Spain”, so ****ing what, we play in England. If Troy Deeney went to Barcelona, refused to warm up after playing **** the whole time, would their supporters say “he clearly has heading ability” and “he’d be brilliant if England”. Shocking player, shocking waste of money, shocking attitude, how people can defend him is beyond me. Shame it was left to Hughes to chuck a bottle at him, in the good old days one of the players would have given him a right hander. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Ok thanks, I did wonder what Baldy did to upset everyone like that. Strange that nobody said anything to that Ian bloke, because he was near enough to Baldy to be heard, and he was shouting abuse at the players non stop. Hands up, I didn’t want to get involved because he did seem wired and I was with my lad and didn’t want things to escalate , maybe others felt the same. Did you see the bloke I’m on about?

Correct. My mum and dad were only living in Southampton because it was between her family in London and his family in Boscombe. My dad was born in Boscombe as was his dad and his brother. That side of the family all called them Boscombe. When my mums family moved to Southbourne in 1970 from London my Grandad joined the con club and all his mates there called them Boscombe. When we moved from Southampton to Dorset ,via Taunton, all my dads old school friends that he re-hooked up with, called them Boscombe. At the middle school I joined following the move, all the kids called them Boscombe. I can assure everyone that none of the people mentioned were “hipsters”. Calling them Boscombe was exactly the same as people around Southampton saying Saints when referring to the team. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

You are taking the ****. The bloke allegedly refuses to warm up, that’s basically refusing to do his job, and you want to see him back. As some of us have said time and time again, the blokes a complete waste of time and money. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I was in block 133 and **** me, we had some planks in there. Load of aggro going on with some Baldy bloke and other Saints fans, went on for ages. They even missed Austin hitting the post, they were arguing so much. The other blokes & a bird were trying to get at baldy, and abusing him, there were also punches thrown. Someone said baldy was Chelsea , but he clearly wasn’t as he had a Saints shirt on, and also kept shouting how he was there in ‘76. I don’t know what baldy did or said, but it must have touched a nerve as the others were clearly raging. There was also a bloke called Ian (he’s mate told me his name on the way out). God, what a pain. ****ed as a rat, just shouting non stop abuse at the players, our players mainly. I thought it was a Harry Enfield character, “Cedric, you Portuguese ponce”, “oh, Yoshida, you Japanese way anchor”. He did have everyone laughing when he shouted “fight for the shirt lemina, you Italian poof”. Luckily he ****ed off way before half time and came back way after. It took him about 10 mins to realised we were 1 down after his halftime visit to the bar. As I left he was at the front of the block, flicking up two V signs shouting “don’t come over here you ****ing ****s”, “**** off” and other words of wisdom. Bizarre , does anyone know him?

My grandad was born in Boscombe in 1899. They were Boscombe Cheeries and the Team from Bournemouth were Bournemouth poppies. When Boscombe entered the football league, they added Bournemouth as it was more well known. Lots of old timers, supporters call them Boscombe, it’s just as natural as are supporters calling us Saints. It’s totally different from other sides old names. It’s like Gooners, or Baggies.

God, we've got some ****ing idiot fans. On the train home & I can't believe some of the comments I'm reading. We were beaten by the better side , but we didn't embarrass ourselves. We put on a pretty decent performance, that had we replicated all season , we'd be nowhere near the bottom 3. I've had 4 or 5 texts from neutrals saying we did ok, yet our supporters are the ones slagging the players off. I've been extremely critical of the players attitude this season, but today it was a lack of ability rather than effort. What the **** are some of you clowns on? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Somebody said last night that including yesterday he has 1 win in 21 away games against the top 6 clubs whilst at Spurs, and failed to win any of the 9 games at the top 6 whilst with us. If true, that’s 1 win in 30 at the top 6. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

What a load of pony. Look at his record away at other top 6 clubs, its ****ing embarrassing . Bottled it again today . Home game in semi final, yet same old same old. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not that we’ll get there, but Spurs could put 6 or 7 past us. Utd will shut up shop at 2, so we can keep it down to 3 or 4 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It’s funny because had we sold him 2 years ago this place would have gone nuts. He’s done the sum part of **** all since. £40million lol,if he’s worth that, my co ck’s a carrot Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Is that the same JRod staring in the “Worst rated 11” from players with 25+ games this season. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

There's no "seemingly" about it. He's not good enough for our first team. If you think he's better than the left back we've got them you're deluded. He's found his level, he may push on, he may not. But the fact remains he's not a patch on Ryan Bertrand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A bloke that took this club and that group of players to 8th and a cup final , shouldn't have been sacked, end of. The people you've listed failed, in no way shape or form is 8th a failure for this club. If you don't know that know, you'll know it in the coming 10 years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Claude Puel is a good manager, not a great one, but not the idiot some on here claim. He did a very good job for us with the players he was given and deserved to start the following season. He’s doing about average with the players Leicester have. It’s a cop out to say “ sacking him wasn’t wrong, the replacement was”, instead of admitting it was a major error to sack him. A major error that many supported and hence their “ wrong replacement “ line, rather than holding their hands up and stating they were wrong. Anybody can trot out this line about any situation. The forum is full of people claiming we sold too many players, how about it wasn’t selling Mane, Pelle, Vic, VvD that cost us, but replacing them with Redmond, Gabbi, PEH, & Wes that cost us. Does that argument make the decision to sell those players right, no it doesn’t. Just as the decision to sack Claude wasn’t right and is a major factor in us playing championship football next season. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looking at the squad we could be left with...
Lord Duckhunter replied to Dazza82's topic in The Saints
If we hold our nerve and added a few old heads we’ll be ok. We have 7 or 8 decent pros that could get us back up, provided we add sensibly and don’t throw the baby out with the bath water. If I were running the club. Bertrand, Cedric, Wes, Lemina, Gabbi, Tadic, Boufal would be told to **** off. Real men required. Carillo, Forster, Classie , if you can find clubs go, if not I think their attitudes are ok so would have them round club. I’d go for Michael Dawson at Hull to play alongside Yoshida, I think they’d be a pretty decent partnership. Stephens & the Polish lad can dip in and out and could play right back as well if the need arose. McQueen & Targett left backs are decent options, Targett needs to be told he’s staying. End of. Don’t know enough right backs to really comment on them. Clearly need one in, although I wouldn’t write Pied off if he’s up for the challenge. OR & PEH will be immense and both need telling they’re staying, like Targett both strike me as decent individuals that will knuckle down and be professional, if not Harry Arter seems out of favour at Boscombe. Harry Reed as a back up. Redmond, Sims, JWP, Davo, will be ok and I’d also have a dart at Nick Powell as our creative unit. The status of Austin really depends on his health and fitness. If we’re getting a season out of him, then it’s a no brainer to keep him regardless of the dough he’s on ( that’s what the parachute money is for). Gallagher will obviously come back, and Long will be needed. He has the right attitude for the fight. We’ll still need a dead cert, somebody used to the hustle and bustle. I doubt if we’d have a hope in hell, but I’d try and get Troy Deeney, if not Vokes is a good shout. If we can’t get them we could do a lot worse than Benik Afobe, Wolves are going to spend, spend , so he will be out the picture there. And Eddie Howe doesn’t seem to want him.

He’s scored in 11 of his last 14 games for club and country. Until last night he’s scored in his last 5 games in a row. He’s already scored 20 goals in domestic league and cups this season ( with 3 games to go). Last season it was 14, and the season they actually won the league it was only 4 more than he’s managed this season. But hey, don’t let facts get in the way of having a dig at the club.

If Ryan Bertrand gets to pick the FA cup up after the way he's played since the turn of the year it'll be a travesty. I may even boo the co ckwomble whilst he's doing so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
