OK fair enough but I think you will find James and Surman will be the first choice full backs unless Andrew goes. JP is only looking for another forward and is building for the future

Amazing comment. Is it not possible they may become excellent fullbacks Jan P thinks so

I think you could have said Thomas demonstrated what he was against Stoke, a useless £1million ***** Another of George's wonder buys I did think our luck had changed when I read Pompey seal permanent Thomas deal on BBC Sport Onlt to learn it was someone else

I agree we have to stay in the league but we may as well replace all our youngsters with loanees . That I am afraid is ridiculous James and Surman must be given an extended run

We already have midfielders but I take your point. But we must keep playing our own players otherwise we will never progress because Cork will eventually return to Chelsea

I am certain the management team have it under control if Davis leaves See how quickly they got Cork in

How on earth are James and Surman to improve if they dont play. This short termism has already cost us Blackstock and Cranie

I agree with Adrian there is a lot of negative posting here. Lots of posters continually try to read something negative into every situation. There is also a lot of abuse directed at the board by people who are ill informed and bigoted. However everybody has a point of view and should be given the opportunity to raise it.

Interesting Why did his Wolves move collapse

Exactly what you think completely devoid of reality.

What is the point of this post. If a player read it it may make him think its not worth playing here where players are abused all the time. What I think Jan is trying to say is that we are nearly at the end of the player sales/loans and we will only sell if we get an extremely high bid

I dont see any positive information we are going to get him

Your interpretation is obviously different from mine. I thought the situation he was alluding to was that SFC were trying to shift Skacel Euell and Thomas but as yet there were no firm offers. He wants to recruit another stiker and centre back which seems sensible to me

It is about time they got behind the team then is it not? All this negative feeling must be affecting the team

Morning Mr Alpine I thought you wanted some new players as you are continually moaning about the fact we are selling our current ones.

Why with apparent some good news on the horizon do we get this negative drivel?

You may well be right but Jones probably gets a large salary so what is his role. Somebody should be responsible for this mess surely it is not Lowe and Crouch was only really in charge for a few months

I may be wrong but I dont think Chelsea are a PLC. Although of course SFC is a football club Southampton Holding's is not and should be treated as a PLC that is why dividends are paid to shareholders in the event of profit. Also if revenue is falling I would have thought it should be the responsibility of the FD to ensure expenditure decreases also.

I think since the credit crunch banks are being more prudent in what money they are loaning so it may well be having an effect on SFC's overdraft

I have not agreed with your posts in recent days but I am in full agreement with what you are saying tonight in this thread. Perhaps your previous comments alienate you from other posters when you contribute something interesting

I would have thought in most organisations which fail the FD is one of the first to go. I dont understand why in this case no one thinks he should.

Because everbody blames Lowe/Wilde/Crouch other people at SFC appear to be able to survive with little or no public scrutiny. You are one the first to raise the topic although I seem to remember something similar in another thread I sometimes think lots of fans think Lowe does everything and no one else is involved.

I have forgotten now had did Hone engineer Wilde's resignation and then sack Crouch from acting Chairman of the Football Club

So Lowe and Cowen are working closely with two people who were heavily involved in causing the financial mess we are in today.

I think this answers your question http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/?page_id=8875
