Exactly my point earlier. That team should be able to stay up. Stern is proven at this level and is a handful for the opposition. Wotton and Schneiderlin would be a very solid core in the middle. Surman and Lallana are capable of delivering ammunition to the front two from out wide, with hopefully Gasmi proving to be a good option too. Svennson still remains a concern but we have Thomas to come back at some point as cover and Lancashire could yet prove to be ready.

The sad thing is, I bet neither of our line-ups have a hope in hell of being picked!

He totally drifts out of games when he plays in the hole too IMO. I'm not sure we can afford the luxury of a "hole" at the moment! Simple formation, simple tactics, with decent players giving 100%.

Sometime in March I believe.

We could've just not sacked Pearson IMO.

I agree largely although I would play Lallana wide and MS in the middle. I think I would pick McG ahead of Pekhart too.

Nah, bring back Pearson.

Two upfront. We have some decent players so let's keep it simple. John + Peckhart/McG upfront. KD back in goal. Lallana and Surman on the wings. Wotton in CM. KD back in goal. That's not such a week team. FFS if we keep it simple I'm sure we could stay up but this 4-2-1-2-1 / 4-1-2-2-1 won't work without the right players. At the moment we do not have them. Holmes was key to keeping the width and we can't seem to settle on e right winger. Dyer and BWP should've both been sacked - they're absolutely fecking useless and I would be happy if neither of them played for us again... Anyway, back to the intial positive tone... let's KEEP IT SIMPLE and see how we get on.

I'm not convinced we will make the play-offs.

Ahh... very touching. How thoughtful.

I wish we would start with 2 upfront (with Stern being one of them). This system is not working without Holmes and a genuine right winger.

There's no point throwing in the towel. As long as there's a chance that we can finish 4th bottom then we must keep going and give it our all. Administration will almost certiainly lead to relegation and won't necessarily get rid of those c ***s.

Let's play with 2 up front on Saturday... How about that for a revolutionary new set-up?

Yes indeed! Once a typo, twice... funny! I like the way he's adopted Scooby's flat-cap signifier too.

Bart in being shi* shocker.

Banana!

Prob Kyle Davis I guess?

Thomson, Hatch...... plus one!

According to Saints TV radio this is the team: ----------------------BB-------------------- Cork------Perry--------Svensson---------Mills ---------------------Wotton---------------- James-----------------------------Surman--- -------------BWP-----------Lallana--------- --------------------McGoal-----------------

According to a Derby forum I laughed at after the match, he's on £26k a week!

Obvioulsy the demise of Pompey would be very entertaining! [-o I just can't see any effect of "big" clubs facing financial hardship other than increasingly desperate, anti-competitive and financially non-distributative measures being put in place.

Why? I have not the slightest idea what a "cerebal wit" is or where I can find one for these people. Thank you for submitting a blustering, shrill, pugnacious, bloated trencherman of a post though. As always, its entertainment value far outweighed any substantive misgivings the reader may have had. Keep it up, Bruce Inson.

Whilst it is plausible that some Prem teams could face severe financial difficulties, the notion that this is good news for Saints is pure guff IMO.

Lol - £5m! You're having a laugh. We'd get £2m max.

:lol: Funniest post on here for fecking ages! :prayer: PMSL.
