  1. The problem I have with the strategy is that not all players with potential make it you just have to look at players such as Carroll and Bentley;
  2. Pretty poor business I would have thought not many are consistent enough for the PL
  3. I agree with what you are saying but it shows what a stupid decision it was to bring in MP in January with a squad not able to play his system
  4. What a load of rubbish football is about results at the moment our results under MP are poor
  5. It is very strange that opponents goals are usually caused by bad defending never by good play I suppose people like you never expect to a see a goal
  6. I was very surprised that we lost to QPR like I was very surprised we beat Man City These things happen in football but we do need to win a couple of games and then we should be OK
  7. Although I did not agree with the Adkins sacking the main problem seems to have been our transfer policy especially in January
  8. Well if we lose it will open the debate on his appointment But there is an hour or so to go and plenty of time to score a couple which will then prove to some that it was the correct appointment I dont think we will lose
  9. Cortese is a really nasty little man
  10. So what did he do which was truly outstanding that got us to the PL that anyone else with all the financial resources of a large club with a good infrastructure and fanbase could not have
  11. With the money invested since the takeover and the enthuiasm of the Fanbase I would have expected similar success on the pitch overseen by any CEO What I have not expected is to hear so many tales about unbelievable bad behavior by the CEO upsetting Local Tradesmen Hard Working St Mary's Employees Local Press and Businesses and other Football Clubs
  12. I dont go to games anymore as it is so expensive neither does my brother except when he gets a ticket. We had previously been regulars 8 to 10 games a season
  13. Dont forget most of the Sales tickets included are subject to £20 VAT
  14. I saw World Class players such as Terry Paine Martin Chivers Ron Davies Mick Channon Kevin Keegan Alan Ball MLT down the Dell they were the dogs Bollix Ramierz is not
  15. That may very well be the case but to stay in the PL surely we need players to perform consistently well and spending 90 mins on the Pitch helping us win matches. He appears to bwe the right player at the wrong time
  16. He was/is a complete waste on money at the moment when we need to dig in and consolidate
  17. He was/is a complete waste on money at the moment when we need to dig in and consolidate
  18. Our fans dont seem to understand a football match is between two teams just expect to turn up and win 2 2 was a good result a win would have course have been better but Wigan are fighting relegation too Another draw next week would be OK too
  19. They may have a bigger catchment area that goes down towards Coventry but the owners do not seem to have any money and the squad is nowhere good enough even Adkits
  20. Nigel Hadkins could do well there but with the current owners refusing to buy Boyd because of poor eye sight I think they would ne a nightmare to work for
  21. I would suggest you maybe wrong I doubt he has earned much over his career so I would have thought that he would move to another club eventually for a fat signing on fee But like you I dont know what Lambert wants and I doubt he would publise it
  22. Are you sure Seemed to me Man U were digging in for 2 1 Perhaps needed more attacking players in second half but a very good result nevertheless Hope the team is not too knackered for Saturday
  23. I think you are talking rubbish the clubs you mention are big clubs from big cities when I moved to London in the 1960s I watched Chelsea with crowds of 50000 at Stamford Bridge It is the same in most of Europe the top clubs come from the big cities with big following
  24. I dont know if that is true as Kaspar won the championship and Jos did not Probably neither PL Standard
  25. I am an OAP so football today is so different when I was a teenager in the 1960s today it is all about money in the PL which I have to accept But I dont like the way Cortese disregards fans I doubt he is doing the best for SFC he is trying to do the best for SFC so he can do the best for himself but I still dont believe he will be as successful as loads on here think because other larger clubs are trying to do the same
