http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/3772566.Pupils_go_on_rampage_at_city_school/ Is Britain in general and Southampton in particular as degenerate as that. These are kids, they need their parents to give them a good smacking, if not they'll all end up either pregnant at 16 or in juvey.

So is the merry Andrew anyone of note?? or just some geezer who happens to be called Andrew?

Are you seriously trying to tell me that buffoon Scooby is really Andrew Cowan??? Don't make me laugh.;-) Sorry to disappoint you all but no professional football club administrator would ever risk that. Calling Crouch an 'insect' could lead to serious serious trouble for them if it ever got out.Sorry lads,think what you like, have your fun but Scooby isn't Andrew Cowan, if he is he would have been forced to resign by now.

Imagine how he must be feeling,probably on about £2000 a week (or less) far from home and he sees blokes on 5 or 6 times that cacking it in the treatment room week after week after week. Wouldn't be surprised if he asks to leave in January. He must be thoroughly p!ssed off with what he sees. I know I am and he's even closer.

That was a very general 'you', meaning us (being saints) :cool:

Nothing so clandestine, he's just the latest in the long line of Fulthorpe's 00?"licence to spread shîte about" brigade. FF,LongShot,Nick01 might be the very same as LS) who wants to be next?. NB. It would be particularily alarming if our overdraft had increased (rather than decreased) at this stage of the season. Face it, our revenue is about 6000(if that)x£24=£144000 every two weeks. So unless we're paying the totality of our players,coaches,admin staff, academy staff etc less than £72000 per week it is unthinkable,especially as we are 2 months or more off the transfer window (unless there are instalments due on players). So far we've whipped up about 4.5 million in transfers and add ons, we got the season ticket money in and we have made some cash on the home games. I would very very much doubt that our overdraft has increased (it's not the period in which than happens). If we're minus 8 million now, we'll be all done by the end of November, ain't going to happen because what you say probably isn't correct.

Well it wasn't in the corner if the keeper hardly had to move. As I said, inside the post by about 6ins/1ft is the way, low down or high up, the rest are 50/50 for the keeper. If you miss it might come back off the bar or the post and you might get another crack.

So why didn't he do that again then? thought the keeper would go down to his left expect.

For the keeper it was probably a question of logic, we had already had one weakly hit penalty saved, the next was 50/50 on a power drive up the middle!.Good players place penalties either 6 inches from either post, hard hit a foot off the ground or take a risk and bang them up under the bar.We might be known as a team who gets their fair share of penalties with Lallana going down like whore's drawers in the box at the slightest touch. I presume the opposition goalkeeping coach would know all about everybody who's ever taken a penalty for us (or elsewhere).Sports science eh, don't ya just hate it, bring back nail in leather studs and knee length shorts.

It was the 26th November last year, plenty of time as yet. Although I would have thought that the new team would want to get them out to highlight the mess we were in when they took over. Those accounts aren't going to be pretty reading with administration and player salary costs sky high,nearly to a laughable extent.Plenty of snouts in the trough gobbling up their fill methinks. If you look at the accounts for 2007 they weren't that bad, we reduced our losses AND our debts, that despite buying quite a few players in the summer of 2006. But with the sale of Bale we actually made a profit on player trading in that year. In fact in the year 2006/7 the club was quite well run. Then came the nitty gritty-loss of parachute payments-and the sh!t started. We increased our wage bill and didn't do very well on the field. All our problems are generated by those disastrous 12 months, especially the ones from December 2007 to June 2008.

Morgan is a great little player, but at his age you can't expect him to play through injuries, like we did with Pahars all those games.At 18 ,you've all your career in front of you,you don't want to be playing week in week out at 60% fit.

Morgan hits a mean penalty.Scored in 3 games for France U19s

We need for those annual accounts to be got out into the public domain and fast. Then you will see the exact level of mismanagement last season. First by "the execs" and then by Crouch and his cronies;

Experienced defenders, like Svensson and Perry? Perhaps we were counting on Skacel NOT throwing his dummy out of the pram ehh? Perhaps we thought Thmoas would actually play for us from time to time If we'd had a back four of Thomas-Svensson-Perry-Skacel that would be experienced enough wouldn't it. If I saw our squad at the start of the season i'd say the team we had in mind was Davies Thomas Perry Svensson Skacel Lallana Euell Surman Schneiderlin Holmes John or Mc Goldrick. Then the injuries started and the fans started boycottting so we got a pile of young players who don't always perform as they should.If you're 3000 down on you first home gate,well you have to recalculate don't you.3000x£24=72K, enough to pay the bonuses and everything.

Draw 1-1

Even then, if they personally don't start doing something in the next 5 games they'll not be worth as much as they were in the summer. Should have taken anything near to £5 million for the pair. Memories are short in football; just takes a Greek or Egyptian wonder kid and the swans that were available to us for those 2 in August will vaporise as far as we're concerned.Getting a total of nearly £8 million for Bale was sharp business, very very sharp. Spurs wouldn't get that for him today.

Trouble is they are young players who lack consistency and stamina; I made no bones about it at the time, as far as I'm concerned we should have taken the offers from reading and Fulham and got £5 million in there and then and got 2 really experienced,CCC quality defenders. I've seen too many wonder kids at SFC to fall for the old chestnut that they're going to be here for ever and make us great.Moran,Williams,Wallaces,Shearer, yes, Lallana and Surman? give me the money any day.

What sort of setback, are Surman and Lallana winning games for us? Not at Coventry and certainly not last Saturday. In my opinion we could sell anyone in our squad and it wouldn't make any difference of a Saturday (or Sunday).

Stern really isn't all that good.Might be better than the incumbents in attack but he's no world beater.

Didn't score any today though did he?

Cheer up, you could be a Spurs supporter.;)

We're probably better off with the youngsters than blokes on crutches though.

Trouble is Davies wasn't a no brainer, he's not fit and believe what you will, the fact is we can't afford passengers again this season.He's been gone since what end of August, that makes a saving of 100K+ so far.What's more we got 1.3 million for him which decreases our borrowing and saves money on interest. We are in that apple cart, every situation must be weighed up to see if it saves us money. I expect we wanted to keep him if he wanted to stay, Rudi didn't want to go to Ipswich so someone had to move on. It's really not rocket science. We,seemingly, have established a budget on the base of 17K gates. Not much room for manoeuvre there if Skacel,Thomas,Euell, BWP and John are skimming off nearly a third of that every match.

There are plenty of idiots on that site, Skates for the most part but we do provide our fair share. I used to like TUI , some football content, a bit of a laugh but now it's just a clique about punk rock and a free slag off session for the blue few.

How can you fabricate a dislocated shoulder Ladysaint? it ferkin well hurts at the slightest knock long after it's back in place.
