Nothing to do with entitlement. It's just a simple fact that we are doomed under an owner with no plan, ambition or cash. There's nothing wrong with being annoyed about that. It's sport. You understand sport, right? It's about trying to win and to do your best. This regime is not interested in competing. It is interested in surviving for the benefit of one family.

So, get #GaoOut #GreatWallofBull and pictures of Winnie the Pooh all over the Saints Twitter, for starters?

How is that contrary? They are both code for "have fewer kids".

He's done nothing. He hasn't got any semblance of a plan and has brought no value whatsoever. He's a crap owner. What's his vision? Minimum spend necessary to stay up and hope to impress some gullible Chinese tourists. That's about it, I think. That's Markus' legacy, is it?

Getting flags into the ground en masse almost certainly won't happen but this sort of movement could start on Twitter. If every club Tweet was followed by a load of Tibet flags, Winnie the Poohs, etc. then that would at least get the ball rolling and is easy enough to do.

Out of the main male protagonists, I reckon, in ascending order of cock size: Javid That SNP Westminster bloke Bercow Nigel Jezza Boris RAAAAABBBB

We need SISA!

I’m Gavyn Davies. Or David Dein. Or Micky Fialka.

Why? Are you pro-Brexit? The Tories want to sign a deal that kicks tough issues into the long grass and could result in effectively crashing out next winter with no long-term deal. Labour haven't got a ****ing clue what they're doing. LibDems will deal with Brexit in the best possible way, by cancelling it. What part of the above is hard to believe?

It's that or no deal, pal. Or we could elect a party that wants to renegotiate a deal based on key positions which have already been roundly rejected by the other side, then campaign against it, or maybe for it, in a referendum that isn't a referendum (but is a referendum). The only way to tackle Brexit is to elect a LibDem government.

No.

We’ve got to pick up two home wins from those. Even if we do, that would be two wins from eight home matches, which is rubbish. So, I would say a fair target is 8 points (two home wins, one home draw and a point from the two aways). Everton game is key. A chance to make some amends at home and go into this run with some confidence. Lost to Everton and write off Arsenal away and we’re into a run of six pointers on the back of awful form. I’m just not sure we’ve got it in us defensively to string a run together.

Christ, they want to expropriate ten percent of the shares of companies as well. If people think Brexit will be damaging, they ain't seen nothing yet if Crazy Corbyn and Mad McDonnell get in.

There's a Labour Doris called "Rebecca" on Radio5 who's finally admitted there's a big cost to nationalising things, although she doesn't know what it is. Also wants to spend £60bn on a programme to allow people to upgrade energy efficient in their homes. [incidentally, something similar was tried as "Green Deal" previously around 2012 but didn't work as the economics didn't stack up.]

”prepare for January window” = desperately try to get a permanent sale of Lemina, Hoedt, Carrillo etc.

This is great. This, the Committee Pig Banner and something about the Uighur genocide.

Rhymes with "Paedo's dream". Coincidence or something more sinister going on?

He’s too old now.

No one's jokin' 'ere.

Hiding to nothing for Long and Boufal though. Come in off the back of a 9-0 into a game where we have 4% possession. Boufal needs to play against Everton.

FaKE NEEws!!

Indeed. He said he saw other people getting money out of China so thought he’d better try to do so. It’s as simple as that. No ambition, no plan, no investment, no joy. That’s Saints.

GAO OUT.

It's behind a pay wall as Athletic is a subscription service. The main points are: - No one in senior management knows much about football and there's a lack of direction. (no surprise given Gao's lack of communication) - Along with Reed and Wilson having left, Bill Green who sadly died was an important guy and heavily involved in transfers in. - Kruger was told out of the blue to sack Reed and didn't really know why. - Kruger left because he could see things were a mess. - Nelly Gao is effectively the new Kruger. - Ralph H has no support on the footballing side of things and there's no one to sit down with him and talk through footballing matters. - we've signed a lot of rubbish. - Ralph H likes a small group of 20 max in first team training, meaning the bloated squad is not even useful in training. - We are jettisoning the unwanted people which means we will never turn a profit on them - The academy is struggling and the lack of football peopke in key roles means the pathway to the first team is less clear - Gaos convinced Kat they would preserve Markus' legacy - Gao's commercial plans all seem centred around trying to sell to Chinese tourists - All major decisions have to be rubber stamped by Gao which slows things down - We don't have any on-pitch leaders - Our centre backs are rubbish Basically. What those of us capable of reading between the lines have said all along: Gao is seriously bad news. #GaoOut #Gaoingdown

MP wages are low compared to the importance of the job. It’s not true to say that most of them would be earning £750k if they weren’t MPs though. I used to work with someone who became an MP and he was just a junior pen-pusher.
