Saint Fan CaM

First off, I don't think Fox is as bad as some are stating - he's perfectly good cover for Shaw. However, Clyne did exceptionally well I thought at LB and Richardson appears to still be around for RB duties, plus there's Cork and Yoshi who could step in too. If Fox is to go, I'm not convinced we'll see a new face in this window.

Amazing - all the luvvies spouting on here about how great MLT was..."BEST SAINTS PLAYER EVER!"...yet 46 posts in he still hasn't been mentioned (unless someone goes back and edits their post of course!). For me it would have to be Paine, Sydenham, Ron Davies and Channon.

Thanks for posting that vid - really nice to see again. (:

I don't get the De Ridder hate by some on here - seems he's the new Guly. Yet he has hardly had the chance to prove himself, has not done too badly when appearing and is one of the few players with genuine pace. Mayuka has been no better IMO. We do need a very capable and adaptable attacking wide man though.

As you are clearly closer to matters involving 'the lounge' than I am, I respect your comments, however to be fair you have provided no real evidence - I.e. something you personally have experienced. You follow up a little information with much more conjecture which is all too common with so many posting on here. The trouble is indirectly told stories are often full of inaccuracies and innuendo and almost certainly the context of the information is lost in the telling. Sorry, but for that reason, I'm out!

Utter BS. Not one quote from Luke.

I'm not hearing anything from 'man on the street' or indeed employees. Please be so kind as to post actual quotes from real people on here - no pseudonyms or fantasy ravings please as that means the square root of nothing - and then I'll start to listen. Fact is most who post on here read what they want to see and believe what they want to believe because that's what floats their boat - you seem to think 'hearing' something on a fans forum website where 99% of the posters don't use their real names is a perfectly reliable way to form an opinion!!! FFS, you need to get out a bit. MLT - great player and servant for Saints in the past - but I question his judgement especially when it comes to spouting on about Cortese in public to meet his/his friends needs (i.e. that's an agenda), when he knows it could harm the club given his 'celeb' status and exposure via Sky.

Agreed. And anyway, it would not serve to placate certain ex-celebs and actually do nothing to enhance 'customer service'. There are clear personal agendas at work here against Cortese.

My feeling is the term 'project' has been used advisedly so as to emphasise the transient nature of modern management. Some top companies will deliberately move management about to combat staleness in the organisation. In the case of a football manager, there is only one place to transfer to and that's another club unfortunately.

Got to say, I am starting to get slightly concerned that we've not landed any targets other than Forren. Ideally thought we would have a deal lined up for Punch by now too. Oh well, a week to go and a Friday story is probably inevitable!

Sure, it would be a sensible thing for ex-players to be allowed to frequent the club bar (I might even think of signing up if I thought I might meet some of my ex-heroes), but in this case an arrangement was not in place and therefore the steward was correct in his action. I have to say though, if Cortese was as business-savvy as its thought, then you would think he might empower his employees to make sensible decisions to act in a manner that will lead to enhanced goodwill with supporters. 'Customer' satisfaction is everything in today's top companies.

Would agree there.

Thank you. Coffee over monitor moment there.

Hasn't Les Reed got top contacts in the places that count? Perhaps those contacts can 'oil the wheels'?

Like.

I know, its amazing how when a point is made over and over relentlessly, it generally becomes funnier. I knew you would appreciate this truth.

I want to campaign against any grey areas on the kit whatsoever please. That would be sh1t and would indicate that Turskatish was correct all along in his hate of Cortese.

I despair, I really do. Self-righteous, self-opinionated, self-publicising tarts.

Immediate reaction is wow - then I think nah, this don't fit.

So you are comparing Markus with Sasha? Nice.

Feed the Turskatish. Nice.

Jeez I just don't get the moaning Minnie's on here! Want to be in Prem - want he club to do well - then when the club sets forth on a clear path to sustained success they STILL moan. FFS! I suppose these people will not be happy until there's a fan on the Board?!?

This is so correct.

Best policy when it comes to anything Turskatish writes.
