I've not seen one person saying we should stop immigration & send immigrants home . I'm sure you wouldn't just make things up , so I look forward to you providing the link .
-
I was undecided before this thread started , but having read opinions from people I don't know and who post anonymously, I'm voting out .
-
Of all the claims , counter claims , lies , propaganda and outright bs from both sides , the funniest one is Tim claiming he was " undecided"
-
Yeah , let's let him run his contract down , play shiete, and get nothing for him this time next year . Good plan
-
**** me , how much do people think Pellegrini would want . I'd be amazed if we could afford him and even more amazed if he'd come to us for the type of money we'd pay . Let's get real .
-
Why would he ? He's a ****ing old has been . If you think Everton fans would prefer him to Ron , you're deluded
-
Now , I'm sure you're just being obtuse , but to give you the benefit of the doubt as I'm a generous soul . I said " off the top of my head " I could name half a dozen better players than him. " Off the top of my head " is normally used to indicate that without thinking ( something I'm sure you'll accuse me of ) there is something better . I was merely trying to point out that in my humble opinion Morgan is not a " great " player , in fact he's not even " great" in Southampton terms, but you knew that was what I meant , so don't really understand your post

What I you mean , already ? It's 9.30 pm , I'm not a metro sexual hipster , I'm a 50 something dinosauR having a snifter on my way home from work..

So they have to have managed a " big team " then ? Aberdeen , is that a big team . What about Huddersfield ? This Europe stuff is nonsense , Woy had managed all over Europe & managed big clubs , do you want him?

I remember reading an article about Moyes in which his approach to scouting was the main hook . Evidently he had a room at Everton that only the coaches and scouts used . It that room were walls ( obviously ) but on those walls were the side he had now , and then players in every position that could replace those players in the short , med and long term . It was like a hard version of the black box . It was reckoned that this room co-ordinated every move months and years in advance . I'm not saying I want Moyes , but he's not some sort of Arry Redknapp " go out and play son " sort of manager
-
Not on here it wouldn't . The metro sexual football manager playing hipsters need a Monsieur who managed Montpellier before taking charge of Perpinan and leading that team of youngsters to 6th . Unfortunately he was sacked by Young boys of Berne , but Poch was sacked , so that's a good thing .

He is not a " great " player . Off the top of my head I could name half a dozen better Saints midfielders than him .

We've got too many posters too far up their own backsides . Sorry but I'm not trendy , don't play Football manager , or know the manager of Nantes who moved to Malaga in 2014 with a 47% win record , but played the nippers . I don't want to sound like an old dinosaur but had this happened last season and someone suggested Ramieri all the Euro hipsters would have wet themselves laughing . Ryan Giggs - not good enough , not foreign enough , ditto David Moyes & Stebe Bruce . Wjat worked before ain't necessarily going to work again . Giggs will have the respect of the players , has played at the highest level , learnt his trade under one of the greatest managers who ever lived , but is not good enough for us . I don't know if he's worth a go , that's what les reed is paid to decide . Les will be talking to contacts , tapping into sir Alex's knowledge and if he goes with Giggs, that's good enough for me . I just hope his not trying to replicate the sucsess we had with Poch & Ron by appointing by formula . As Leicester showed sometimes thinking out of the box is the best option

They were starting to lose the plot, but because of yesterday they will now calm down a bit which will get them over the line. The only way out will be when the whole stinking corrupt vessel goes down
-
It's happening already . A load of lefties & far right planks on Twitter already . You can ignore plums like that , but some people who should know better subtly bringing it up . Alister Campbell for one , retweeting her tweet from yesterday about her husband & kids being on Geldofs remain boat . Why on earth would you retweet a tweet from a murder victim that was political in nature? This is what an eu commissioner said "Jo Cox murdered for her dedication to European democracy and humanity"
-
What a load of pony . What on earth has this to do with the referendum ? MP's have been attacked by nutters before Timms springs to mind . I bet you're one of the lefties who claim some attacks are " nothing to do with Islam " , now because a mentaly ill nobody has killed an mp , it indicates a referendum has " changed the country" .
-
Why the mystery? I can only think of 3 reasons He's in a job, so we're basically tapping him up. He's not in a job , but don't want to alert other clubs that he's available. If this is the case , he must have a pretty poor agent , or is so bad that none of the clubs looking for managers thought of him . I can't believe at his unveiling other clubs are going to be like " oh shiete why didn't we think of him" . He doesn't exist
-
The article states we're wary of anyone using us as a stepping stone . If that's the criteria they're using to rule people out ,we'll end up with Nigel again . Won't leave a lot to choose from

Your first Saints manager appointment and preference?
Lord Duckhunter replied to Bad Wolf's topic in The Saints
First game was in '69 so remember Ted & Lawrie , but don't ever really remember thinking about other managers or replacements . Don't even remember thinking much about Chris Nicholl either , despite being 20odd . First real appointment I remember being against was Branfoot , my mates dad was a sports reporter and i remember him telling me about Branfoot's hoof ball at reading . I wanted the bloke who had done a great job at Boscombe instead , a certain Mr H Redknapp -
His budgets normally fall apart within 48 hours, this one did so before it was delivered . Daily politics was interesting today on this . Tory remain , Ed someone (talking horse would have made more sense ) infuriated Neil by refusing to answer the question of how they'd get it through parliament . Then some dopey labour leftie refused to answer whether Darling was with Osborne representing Labour or in a personal capacity . He cut her off in the end saying " it's not worth talking to you " as she was launching into another preplanned sound bite. John Mann was interesting, he said that remain mps are telling him they're shocked at anti EU feeling they're picking up on doorstep . Also said Scotland isn't looking as solid as people think .
-
Any guesses when TV games announced
-
It won't . But Osborne will do exactly the opposite of what he purposes in his Revenge Budget in a downturn . You loosen monetary policy in a down turn .
-
Or you do what Osborne has continues to do every time he misses his targets . Laughable that Osborne talks about a black hole . He's had a black hole since 2010, which of course he was going to close by 2015 , but is now extended to 2021. Regardless of Brexit I would bet the house that he'll miss it again and extend his soft version of austerity yet again . They'll be a recession if we stay in . Osborne has created house bubble growth , that's all based on consumer credit . There will be a bust , it was never abolished
-
The funniest thing is Jezza can't bring himself to agree with them .
-
Don't get me wrong I like long , particularly his attitude . He did well at the end of the season , but let's be honest he's not top quality . I think him & Austin ( if fit) could be a real handful , but if we're going to play one up top , his finishing isn't good enough .
