When it comes to immigration they have. They were forced by the people to curb free movement, but they’re addicted to cheap immigrant labour and have been for years.

People are deluded if they think the Tory party actually want lower immigration. They’ve into “immigration increases GDP” even more than the Labour Party. Obviously, the party of business want higher immigration, it’s good for business. They just pretend they’re trying to control it & soft arsed lefties like Soggy buy into that narrative just as much as the “knuckle draggers” he so despises do.

Thanks for yet again proving how clueless you are, and how your ridiculous “right wing” pony is based on pure ignorance. Boris is pro immigration, has always been pro immigration. He’s even proposed an amnesty for illegal immigrants in the past, something that Starmer won’t be talking about anytime soon. Boris is probably nearer your position than Starmer is, yet because he’s a Tory who voted Leave he’s “hard right” in your child like view of politics.

Perhaps they should have stayed in France then. I believe they’ve got Asterix cartoons on the walls of their detention centres.

That’s fucking heartless. Look at their poor little faces, a little bit of Donald Duck or Micky Mouse would really help them settle in.

Was he drunk?

You do realise that’s not much of a compliment don’t you? Bit like the second funniest German, second most interesting Belgian or second prettiest Skate bird.

Head over heart, it’s a no from me. I also don’t see why Martin would want him around anyway. He needs to hit the ground running without a popular older player in the back ground. A couple of bad results and the Jose for manager talk will start. As someone posted earlier, if he hadn’t played for us we’d be saying no thanks.

Are people forgetting quite how bad Fonte was for West Ham? I doubt he’s got the physicality or pace to play for a top championship side at nearly 40. Head definitely needs to over rule heart with this one imo.

Fucking shit show again. Baz ball, load of old pony. WTF was Bairstow doing there, shocking.

You still don’t get it do you? Dear god 🤡

You’ve got a different definition of “play” than I have.

If we’d signed Bree today, people would be saying he’s exactly what we need.

But it’s not another club selling him, it’s a championship club. If he was at Brighton or Fulham, it wouldn’t particularly be too bad for his career if he waited another year before going to a bigger club. He’d be a bit pissed off, but probably knuckle down and give his best for one more year. I doubt he’ll do that in the championship. Theres no way playing in the championship will increase his value, however well he plays. Not a fucking chance. If we force him to stay the best we can hope for is clubs will pay what they’re willing to pay now (in relative terms), if we don’t go up we’ll get a lot less money for him in a years time.

I’ve lived in Poole since ‘92 & there were loads from Weymouth/Dorchester/Wareham already on the train when I got on every home game. Now there’s nowhere near as many, and the odd occasion that my travel coincides with Boscombe supporters on the train, there’s hardly any stay on past Poole, so it’s not like that area of Dorset has switched sides. Whether it’s local football, both Weymouth & Dorchester have decent set ups & stadiums now , a new generation watching games on TV instead, or even car travel due to the Olympic upgrade to the roads, but there’s nowhere near as many football supporters on train from Weymouth now as there was then. The other major difference is the local attitude towards us. There was never any animosity at all except a few chumps in Bournemouth, now it’s all scammer this & scummer that, even in Poole (which is surprising because football aside I find Poole people don’t particularly like Bournemouth). Started around the time Redknapp went to Pompey & has gotten worse since then. Obviously being in the same league encouraged some of it, but it was definitely turning before then.

They let us off it with Baz.

Yeah, not many people could stand the pressure of facing Melksham Town in a pre season friendly. If she can cope with that, the mens professional game will be a piece of piss.

Is the implication that out of town supporters are “glory hunters”. If that’s the case, they’ve a weird definition of “glory”.

Fuck me, did you watch Peter Schmeichel, you know the bloke who was captain in the 1999 champions league final. If he let one through his legs, he’d still bollock the defenders for allowing the shot in the first place. I want a captain to be throwing bollockings around and falling out with people, being unreasonable & creating an edge. Whether that’s Bednarek is open to question, but he’s certainly one of the only ones ( if not the only one)capable of doing so with this bunch. Ideally, we need to get a couple of leaders in, one of whom takes over the role.

I was born in Southampton, but moved away when I was a nipper. My 3 lads have never lived in Southampton, have no family in Southampton & no ties to the city at all, they just followed me. Are they allowed to continue supporting Southampton?

We had Hoddle, Bally & Souness who probably were as well. I remember reading that the players used to fire the ball into Lawrie to try & embarrass him when he joined in training. Had he been managing last season, he’d probably have had one of the better touches though.

Rubbish. He’s just distancing himself in case a move doesn’t materialise. All this “lost in translation “ is a load of old pony. His agent works for him, he wants out.

Typical Soggy 😂 Shame you aren’t going now because you could update us on the riots. I’m sure you know a few of the rioters, some of the business owners whose property was set alight, as well as a couple of the gendarmes. We’ll now have to wait until you meet a member of Macrons Government at next weeks dinner party before we find out the real truth….
