9th in the table surely is OK But we have not played a top team yet so probably disappointing but not a disaster
-
What does Rickie Lambert need to do this season to go to the World Cup?
John B replied to jawillwill's topic in The Saints
Hope that there are injuries to other English Strikers -
The Guardian predict 14th place finish for Saints
John B replied to Toon Saint's topic in The Saints
Very true not sure the squad is that much better than last year 12 to 16 finish with no flirting with relegation would be acceptable. Dont think Cardiff Hull or Palace will make much impact -
How expensive would football need to become before you wouldn't watch Saints?
John B replied to kwsaint's topic in The Saints
AS an OAP living away from Southampton I cannot afford PL prices and the cost of travel so after going to matches since 1962 I doubt I will go to many more live ones but will follow the team on TV on the Internet and in the Press -
We have done really well this season better than I thought in October
-
Thats the key point relegation will be a disaster financially
-
At a first glance they seem very positive and things will look good if we do not get relegated as more cash is on offer next season
-
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;
-
Pretty poor business I would have thought not many are consistent enough for the PL
-
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
-
What a load of rubbish football is about results at the moment our results under MP are poor
-
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
-
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
-
Although I did not agree with the Adkins sacking the main problem seems to have been our transfer policy especially in January
-
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
-
Cortese is a really nasty little man
-
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
-
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
-
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
-
Dont forget most of the Sales tickets included are subject to £20 VAT
-
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
-
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

When is Ramirez going to start justifying his price-tag?
John B replied to Sheaf Saint's topic in The Saints
He was/is a complete waste on money at the moment when we need to dig in and consolidate -

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
