You see we bought Lambert for a mill and no doubt a handsome salary but today he didn't score and yet Bristol Rovers beat much fancied Millwall 2-0; It is a villain trend in football to buy the seeming king and ignore the kingmaker, we can't score and yet the club that we gave a million quid to can, despite losing the league's leading scorer, kaleidoscope is the key word, always changing ,never looks the same.We need to become that kaleidoscope so that the opposition can never foresee our game.

He wil soon get tired of it, I expect him to try to sell the club before the year is out.Lowe will probably take it off his hands for 35p

I think we tried to have a clear out this summer-nul prosequi, the players that someone actually wanted were those we wanted to keep, unless it was silly money on offer,the players we don't want,well we couldn't loan them out or give them away at any price, same old same old really.

we will get a hiding from Charlton, or maybe not, we are Saints remember, nothing is predictable.

I'mnot sure that playing it on the grass is one of Pardew's theories. As Brian Clough said, "if god meant for football to be played up in the air he'd have put grass up there".Football is a simple game, played on the turf and not 3 meters above it.

Well if he was that good Fiorentina wouldn't have loaned him out for a season would they. He's serie B, probably got overconfident as well, don't get your hope up, poor man's Henri Camara, a little home truth, if a french speaking african is any good, there's always a french club willling to take a punt on him, Marseille, Monaco, Lens,Lille,PSG,St Etienne take your pick clubs virtually entirely peopled by africans or french of african descent,why didn't they take Papa Waigo? who the f*ck knows.He nearly went to Toulouse last autumn apparently, why he didn't i have no idea, Toulouse Jeff might be able to enlighten us on that.

Anyway as no side has failed to get at least a point from us including 3 home games it's not really surprising is it. We should be dominating this league, we aren't thus others are getting points from us tht they shouldn't be getting. Too many mediocre players,needed to spend big and not on one trick ponys like Lambert. The opposition in the main have had two or three seasons to study his game, they have now got him sussed and shackled.

but he probably runs around a lot and hustles and bustles which is what a lot of our coforumists think makes a good player. A good player reads the game, is where he needs to be at the right time with a minimum of effort. Beckenbauer looked one of the laziest bastards ever to wear a pair of football boots.So did Gerd Muller, the list is endless, Jimmy Greaves scored shedloads because he was always where he needed to be at the right moment.

I have just been reading on the BBC that some women believe that kebabs and chicken skin are effective contraceptives as well, that's what happens when education becomes second to making money .

Still we're only 17 points behind the play-off places!! Isn't that what you're supposed to post on here nowadays? New management have got it all wrong, should have kept Wotte and given him the wherewithal to take this league by storm, a sort of shock and awe. Still they're content grubbing about in the bargain basement, Lowe must be giving them lessons.

Any betting on this golf Tony?

I don't see what's quite so shocking, just another punter trying to take advantage of a situation which shouldn't exist anyway. Betting is stupid,anyone who makes a few bob out of it is just normal.

Boothroyd doesn't need a work permit,Jaidi does or so it would seem, don't know if he'll get it by Saturday though.

Well I think it will depend on the department of work and pensions rather than Boothroyd, if Jaidi plays alongside Trotman we shouldn't concede, whether we score or not is the variant. Don't think N'Diaye will be match fit but he should be able to shake Colchester up for 25 minutes or so. IF we play Morgan to feed N'Diaye with the sort of pass he's used to we may do very well, if not who the f*ck knows.

Probably our best side, not that it will be played but on paper that's probably about right.

N'Diaye is an out and out striker, why are you all drafting him into midfield to let your favourites (Saga/Lallana) get a game?. He will play at the front with Lambert.

Dolly Parton actually.

but they had to announce something to ease the disappointment because the 2 or 3 deals just didn't happen-yet.

I think whoever it was was talking about the more recent RUMOUR of him going on loan to Boro (eventually).

Personally I could pass on Davis for a keeper that's better on crosses and a decent (but not exceptional ) shot stopper.Aerial bombardment and lack of pace at the back was our undoing last season and we've conceded some iffy goals from crosses and set pieces already this season. I think we saw the difference when we had Richard Wright, not knocking Kelvin but he is suspect on crosses.

I think Fitzhugh Fella told us otherwise on another thread, and he usuaally "knows".

I don't think that's true, some of the players are decent, even outstanding for this level of football, trouble is with the make do and mend we are using because the manager won't play to the strengths of our better players we are drawn back to the level of the lowest common denominator. AP has decided that we're going gung ho Route 1 over the midfield to his shiny new toy and that's it. We all know he needed 2 centre backs and some wide pace but he decided otherwise.

Can't see that happening, there are only "emergency loans" for a month renewable possible now aren't there?? Just can't see that being of interest to Saga or Morgan, they will pine away and die (footballing wise).

Saga and Morgan staying is only positive if we play a style of football that they can adapt to, kick and rush isn't going to suit either of them. They need a patient building football with movement and anticipation around them.

You are preaching to the converted but I want to see him leave because just now there's no future for him at SFC, he knows that as well and wants to leave (or so I'm told). We have 2 years of struggle before us and by then he'll be overlooked no matter how well he may play. His style is not for us just now.
