  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. Because at £12m it was cheap and there was no mortgage on the stadium
  5. 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
  6. Me too he played OK last night against Peterborough but nowhere as good as Fonte
  7. 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.
  8. Yes he did right in front of me at the Milton Road End and 2 2 after 12 mins
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. Well he is but Heskey is quicker
  12. Bennett
  13. 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
  14. And it could happen again in a couple of weeks when Middlesboro are at St Mary's
  15. Sanctimonious twaddle

    Jos the Boss

    From the comments on here and having spoken to people who went to the match he was OK but not outstanding. However I was hoping for something better and still feel we should have spent the apparent £1.8m that we paid for Fox on a really good young CB

    Jos the Boss

    But was he good as Seaborne?
  18. Surely 3 2 is a usually a better game than 1 0
  19. Seems a bit of an overaction I would have thought
  20. Not such as a disgrace as a few of allegded Saints Fans
  21. Dont think Dan Seaborne will play and Dan Harding possibly otherwise I agree
  22. I have no idea some anywhere in the top half I would have thought
  23. I think they are a big club Honours[edit] DomesticFirst Division Champions: (9) – 1890–91, 1914–15, 1927–28, 1931–32, 1938–39, 1962–63, 1969–70, 1984–85, 1986–87 Runners-up: (7) – 1889–90, 1894–95, 1901–02, 1904–05, 1908–09, 1911–12, 1985–86 Second Division Champions: (1) – 1930–31 Runners-up: (1) – 1953–54 FA Cup Winners: (5) – 1906, 1933, 1966, 1984, 1995 Runners-up: ( – 1893, 1897, 1907, 1968, 1985, 1986, 1989, 2009 Football League Cup Runners-up: (2) – 1977, 1984 FA Charity Shield Winners: (9) – 1928, 1932, 1963, 1970, 1984, 1985, 1986 (shared), 1987, 1995 Runners-up: (2) – 1933, 1966 Full Members Cup Runners-up: (2) – 1989, 1991 Super Cup Runner-up: (1) – 1985–86 World Soccer Magazine World Team of the Year Winners – 1985 FA Youth Cup Winners: (3) – 1965, 1984, 1998 Runners-up: (4) – 1961, 1977, 1983, 2002
