So Waigio might as well return to Italy as suggested by Alpine Mind you seems a better prospect than some of our recent signings

Well it is now being quoted that AC Milan were possibly after NC http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/8483042.stm Seems slightly far fetched to me Milan are one of the top clubs in world football and I cannot see what NC has done to warrant their interest. He has only been here for six months but although progress is good it is not outstanding and I doubt if he has made contacts at the highest level including UEFA Perhaps the JPT is held in high regard in Italy:D The whole saga fascinates me

That is exactly the reason why 442 is not going to work at the moment

I have seen it on three threads now so I am beginning to believe it;)

Yes you are right but are you not worried that the team in the last month is not winning comfortably against teams like Luton or ten man Exeter. Lets hope things change against both Stockport and Exeter in the next two games

So is Thomson or Thompson in our reserves an International

Well they did get rid of him did they not but that will not be the case when a club has a single owner that is my point. By the way my actual involvement with Lowe is considerably less than yours as I dont recall ever seeing him

Not the first time I would have thought

It is like the grass is greener over there scenario because we are playing well at the moment we think different players would produce better results who knows but that said I dont understand why Waigio only comes on for five mins seems scarcely fair

Had not really noticed that but lots of posters believe pretty much anything which meets their agenda. Very few change their attitudes I would have thought although after seeing the performance against MK Dons I now believe 442 is not the way forward at the moment .

Thats the whole point Lowe was not the owner and was accountable to the board and shareholders and got turfed out but NC/ML are not

FF is only putting forward opinions which in most cases seem reasonable he just does not like having an owner who can do what he likes. Nothing to do with ML/NC he would act the same probably who ever owned the club. I agree with his stance but probably like him expect that NC/ML will do great things for the club but there is always the remote chance that I am wrong

So what should Mr Murray do if NC will not talk to him NC is not coming out very well at all at the moment as nobody knows what actually happened

So are you really pleased that we have not been playing very well. Of course people are pleased we are in two cup competions but would probably be very pleased if we thrashed some team or other

What spurious stories I thought the Echo were reporting the facts

The team is not playing particularly well at the moment so most posters were hoping for a bit more. Results in the League recently have not been good

I agree with mostly what you are saying but why should we automatically go up next season when we are currently not performing well despite buying in loads of players

A reasonable summation as I see it like that as well

Perhaps the teams we have been playing against recently are better than the teams we beat last year and players like Lallana and Lambert are not playing as well but James and Davis are playing better. Constantly changing the team does not help either

What is the commercial arrangement?

Dont think many people do theses days

Sorry but they were only reporting what happened if Cortese had not banned them there would be no story. The Charity are apparently upset with SFC but if that is not the case you maybe right I thought the Charity were using the Echo to make SFC look bad

What is he actually going on about I thought the Echo were reporting things that had happened they cannot surely stop publishing things which Cortese may not like

Well said Clifford dont really know what the fuss is about the Echo just appears to be reporting things that have happened

Seem quite interesting news to me NC must be highly thought of in Italy but not by John Suchet
