You can't even take risks with money you don't have and can't get. That's our problem, money doesn't grow on trees at SFC, never has, we have hardly ever made money, not even in the glory days of the premiership. When we had a team we didn't have a ground, then when we had a ground we didn't have a team apart from 1 season. Our only real source of money has been selling players and now we don't have any to sell.

As long as he doesn't play against Norwich like he did against Rotherham it makes no difference to us really.

Looks like one of the loanees they've just got in has injury problems already. Still with an international break after this week-end's games I guess it's a good time to get new players in. Not that we will mind you, probably be more outs than ins.

What with all those Ripley Holden stereotypes, poor bugger.

What Creates Your Happiest Saints Moments
Window Cleaner replied to TijuanaTim's topic in The Saints
Steve Moran was probably involved in over half of them,allied with Alan Ball or Steve Williams in most cases. I'm sure most younger fans think we old fogies make this stuff up, but we don't, we were really top class in those days. -
No doubt. But how we finish may depend on who we play and who the other candidates play. I have broken this down into 5 categories. Teams battling it out for automatic promotion=AP Teams with serious play-off chances PO Mid Table, nothing to play for really= MT Relegation is a possibility (more or less) =RT Charlton who are already as good as down=C. Obviously these categories change with every result but to date it goes for teams in 18th -23rd place: Saints 1AP,1PO,3MT,2RT 1C Forest 1AP,2PO,1MT,3RT, Blackpool 1AP,2PO,OMT,3RT1C Norwich 2AP,1PO,3MT,1C Plymouth 1AP,2PO,3MT,2RT Barnsley 2AP,2PO,3MT,2RT So in theory Forest have the hardest run-in in terms of teams who have exterior motivation other than wanting to win for the sake of winning. Closely followed by Blackpool However if we can't score goals all that makes little difference because no matter how much we want to win-we won't.

FREEPOST? we can't be that hard up then. If they have to pay for all the crank applications they'll be getting our overdraft will soar.
-
Don't know,do palarse still believe thay have a chance of making the plays-off? I see that QPR still think they're in with a chance despite being 10 points behind the 6th placed side and having played a game more. Some of these managers will say anything to get an extra fan into the stadium.

Not to mention the anthem of all true football fans :Love over Gold.

Britt Eckland wrote that (well not really it was the Sutherland Bros) but Britt claimed most of Rod's work you know. as for Dire Straits .............

But really this is just crazy desperate talk. We have strikers, let them strike. Putting a CB up front for a whole half would just lead to endless high ball pumped into the box to be gobbled up by the opposition defence and keeper who would pump the ball straight down the field to hit our defence with wave after wave of attacks until we finally cave in; It's what happened with the JP system, no ball holding in midfield and attack=get hit on till you crack.
-
Anyone who has missed an open goal or an easy chance when a 1-O win instead of a 0-0 draw would have made all the difference. It's as basic as that. I blamed the players 100% last time, this time they may only get credited with 90%.

Lallana should be loaned out somewhere, Salisbury or Mottisfont should be about his level. Why we persist with the bloke I've no idea, we should have taken any offer that was made for him and got ourselves a midfield player.
-
Yep that's it, we're paying 2 "strikers" a total of £24000 a week and we have to try to get either a free transfer or an on loan centre half to score goals for us. Sums us up really.
-
I just wish we'd got that £5 million that someone was supposed to be paying us for him. With 5 million swans we could get a whole team of Lallanas and still have enough left over to pay off half of our overdraft. The fact that we didn't take tends to indicate that it was an urban myth.

I see that Davies has started dropping players because he doesn't think their "lifestyle" is suitable;Just what you need to build up a team when you're up sh*it street. There's a time for everything, trouble is it probably isn't just now.
-
The theory goes that if you've got a non-combattant but gifted attacking midfielder (like Lennon or Walcott) you stick in an extra defensive midfielder to do his share of the tracking back and ball recovery and just let the said midfielder get on with the sharp end.If said midfielder isn't making it happen up at the front then he's not up to the job and you replace him with 2 less gifted but more aggressive attacking midfielders and drop off one of the defensive midfielder. We really need to get away with this idea of RM CM and LM, midfielders come in 2 types, defensive and attacking, other than that they should be here,there and every f*ckingwhere.
-
Davies may be making far too many changes at a time where regularity and consistency may be more useful. Gunter will take time to adjust to the pace of the Championship game and frankly the situation they're in can't make it any easier; don't really understand Notts F, they started getting better results after Davies took over then he started changing everything and they've cracked up completely. Too much, too late probably sums it up.

Good to see that some-one knows that You'll Never Walk alone comes from the musical Carousel and isn't a little ditty dreamed up by some Liverpool yob. I had some-one insisting that Smoke Gets in you Eyes was Motown the other day.
-
perhaps we were already cutting win bonuses and appearance fees.
-
Depends on the other results.A draw would be a good effort if all the others lose.We need to beat Charlton and Palace at home that's for sure.

Trying desperately to turn stocks into cash I expect. Didn't the high street stores all do that round Christmas?
