I know but it is not bad news which it may have been if Perry was made Club Captain

Does that mean he is not going to be sold in the next few days If that is so that is really good news

I just dont think people perform well if they are concerned with the future thats all.

Wages of £500000 must be have been something to do with the reason he was not required

They could be in the Premiership as they are playing really well at the moment. and their football is said to be of the highest quality.

I hope you are right . I wonder what the younger players think of it all. McGoldrick James Gillett Holmes Smith Patterson Molyneux etc would not be playing at this level if youth had not been given the chance. They maybe concerned what the future may hold if Lowe was to go

Yes I know that but outside factors surely affect the team. Last season if I remember results started to suffer after the board said the financial situation was dire. I know our results have been awful this season but with a new manager a couple of new players maybe the situation can improve. But it could be undermined with all the goings on off the field.

That is what I think but why should anybody buy Lallana or Surman if they were that good surely they would have helped us to more points. I know they have potential but it is results which count

What affect is the protest going to have on the players I wonder Is the Atmosphere going to assist the team in attempting to beat Swansea

It does say arrivals too

He was OK but surely not worth £1.6 m

I agree with you but he did try to rid the Club of Lowe

Southampton striker Marek Saganowski says he is fully committed to the club, after making an impact since returning to the Championship strugglers. The Pole recently spent a loan spell with Danish side Aalborg as part of cost-cutting measures at St Mary's. He told BBC Radio Solent: "When I was sent to Denmark I wasn't happy because I felt good at Saints. "I've got a year and a half left on my contract here and I want to play for this club." Saganowski netted the equaliser in Saints' 2-2 draw at Norwich on Tuesday - his second goal in three matches since returning from Denmark. "It was a big disappointment to be left on the bench, because I thought I did well in the previous game. The goal was my answer to the staff for leaving me out," he said.

Used to be called the Clump but now the Chilworth Arms possibly

I am not happy but not angry if we have no money to pay players we are not going to be a good team I would have thought. I fairly angry last season where we wasted lots of money and nearly got relegated especially during the last day of the season where if other teams won we were down. If Crouch had got rid of Burley at Christmas perhaps things would have been better

It is the top six quoute I think is rubbish Crouch said last season when he took over that we were heading for the play offs when in fact we were heading for the relegation zone. Surely with some type of costing the team would not be going for promotion to the Premiership. I am not saying that the present regime is doing a good job but at the moment we are not in administration if we were then of course Lowec and Wilde would have failed.

Seems slightly deluded to me where is the evidence for this I wonder

It is not easy being a coach is it? As there are a lot of midfielders with similar abilities

Ottery is very sharp this week

Anything happening on getting the £6million we talked about on Monday or Leon just talking how things could be better

Sometimes I wish I could resign from this forum but I am addicted. Never much good news or goodwill As usual rants about the board the players and the playing staff. and everything would be better if we had different players different coaches and more money Anyway on to the next thread

We had a few good players then not so today

What did Lallana do tonight Perhaps Saga should have played instead of him

Yes not a bad team But why was Holmes substituted and where does Lallana fit in?
