Red and White Army

Lowe has never said we let go of Pearson because he cost too much. What he did say was the Dutch Duo's wages combined were less than Pearson's. In my view, that was simply a statement to head off people like dumb pahars complaining Lowe was ruining the club and bankrupting it. Lowe got rid of Pearson because he wanted the Dutch Duo more, and he could bring them in without any financial hardship of paying more wages. That is all there is to it in my view. dumb pahars is just stirring up and insinuating Lowe said he got rid of them for wages, as he has done from the moment this was announced.

You are the resident troll.

Seemed pretty fair to be honest.

Incredible to see you putting a negative spin on a positive story. Who would have thunk it?

I would also be interested in sending him a message of thanks and good luck.

One the the best goalies to grace the English leagues, he was top drawer and a great blome to boot. A true Saints hero without a shadow of a doubt. Fare well, Antti!!

Moron. They have tactics and substitutions in Holland too. The new Chelsea boss doesn't have experience in English leagues and he seems to be doing ok. Leave your sad little xenophobic mindset at the turnstiles please.

You're a complete anti-Lowe troll for a start. You troll the crap out of anything to do with Lowe or the board and it's sad, boring and pretty damn immature at the end of the day. I wish you would take a draught from the mug of "Shut the f*** up" to be honest.

Lowe was here for nine whole years leading up to that.

What do you think Lowe should have sold then? If not players - should he have sold the stadium? The fans? What? Easy to criticise if you have no alternatives. As for performance-related pay - RL has been big on that for a long long term, lng before you mentioned it. That's why our players took a salary cut on relegation, and have win bonuses in their contracts. That's why the Dutch Duo will get well paid if we do well.

Ultimately this just shows you are trying to play the "I'm a great fan" card and you show how petty and small minded you really are with your anti-Lowe rant, You do have every right to hold this opinion but equally we have every right to judge you on it. Lowe spent money trying to expand the number of sources Saints derived money from, which were ultimately unsuccessful. The logic behind this is impeccable though - by diversifying earnings you get a more stable income stream and this is extremely positive for any company or football team. Did you go to the FA Cup final under Lowe?

I agree with that, but by choosing not to go they show themselves to be petty and put a personal prejudice over supporting the first team. Those sort of people are not true fans. It is their choice.

8.5k is a disgrace.

I thought you weren't going to any games now John, plastic fan?

Bit early to call that after 3 league games I think!

We were mid table when NP arrived, and many of our kids now were clearly good enough to make our first team ahead of some of the journeyman last season.

Where is dumb pahars these days? The football we are playing now really shows up how limited we were under Pearson.

Yes you fecking can. Tosspots the lot of them, in my view.

I hope those claiming they are staying away due to Lowe are hanging their heads in shame, and the real fans keep getting behind the first team.

LOL is he fat Marc Jackson?

I'd give the site ten times that to have you banned.

Seems like you are in a small minority here Baj. Didn't you read the responses on this thread or something?

Yes, I am sure your view is based on your first hand observations, your day to day contact with the club, your in depth knowledge of how JP and RL interact, your network of spies inside SMS and the bank insider feeding you our weekly cashflow statements. Or you could be making it all up based on your own personal petty prejudices and not have a single shred of evidence to back it up. I know where my money is.

Another alwine thread full of pointless and non-disprovable supposition.

No sign of alpine on a good news thread!
