I think he is winding you up as no sensible person would really think SFC would have a large number of academy graduates playing champions league football in a 50,000 seater stadium somewhere in Southampton

Gloom and Doom perhaps

Well we bid £2m for him last week

It was £2m last week

Only time will tell as I cannot see how we are not going to get promoted

Yes you are pathetic Most people go to football matches to watch the game not abuse other watchers

I think we may be bidding for Lukas

Totally agree with you I only watch half a dozen games a year these days but 50 years ago I watched at least 25 a year home and away. Always phone my brother to ge scores when I am away or follow matches on the Internet all my friends and even people I hardly know realise I am a non plastic committed Saints fan who has a ticket for the Hull game

And me too

No way The early 80s were the best and the 1976 cup winning team were better than todays team I would have thought

I dont think you have grasped the concept of planning If we want to get to the PL and stay there we will need better players than we have now so it is better to get them so that we can get them playing and getting use to each other. You are right we need some more CBs so lets get one in now

Dont think Jos is going to be good enough for the PL so I think we should get in somebody better like we got in Fox to replace Harding

I think we have done well this season because we have added just a few players from our successful team of last season which has helped us to our league position. Just look at what has happened at Leicester where a large number of players were brought in Yes I would like a couple of PL standard players added to the squad say a CB and striker so that they can gel with the current team and then add just a few more if we get to the PL. Whether Davis is a PL goalkeeper is open to question but he is very good in the Championship. However I see no reason why the current squad cannot get us to the PL the way they are playing and the way other teaams are not playing but I am just thinking of next season

Because at £12m it was cheap and there was no mortgage on the stadium

It does help that the club was bought cheap and going into Administration proved very useful I doubt we would be in the position we are in today if we had not

Me too he played OK last night against Peterborough but nowhere as good as Fonte

We are five points clear a home win two excellent goals West Ham drew but for some reason felt a little dissappointed as there seemed little urgency in the team and no player seemed to play very well.

Yes he did right in front of me at the Milton Road End and 2 2 after 12 mins

Wimshurst was a really good attacking player was MOM in the famous 5 0 thrashing of Nottm Forest in the FA Cup 1963 but his form fell away and went to Bristol City Tony Knapp was our captain when we got promoted in 1966 came from Leicester City and went to Coventry a few months after this photo to be relaced by Big John McGrath was manager of Iceland Knapp I think was pictured in a large advert at the Archers Road End advertising Coca Cola

Not such a good result as in 1962 when we beat them 6 0 but with all goals coming in the second half but better than I expected Think automatic promotion is between our selves West Ham and Birmingham. I will be interested if we buy a top class CB and striker in the window to show we really want promotion

Well he is but Heskey is quicker

Bennett

No I dont think so We have every chance of getting promoted 60 points from 34 games should see us there Then of course there is the play offs 50 points from 34 games

And it could happen again in a couple of weeks when Middlesboro are at St Mary's

Anderlecht in 1977
