Saint Fan CaM

Back to the OP - great gesture by the club and best wishes to the family.

By jove you cracked it Watson!

This.

To be fair N'Guessen was very poor today, but that's no reason to boo a player or cheer when a player he gets sent off.

But surely this down to the antagonists? Cortese has done this club a remarkable favour by getting Markus involved in the first place and the committing his personal time and future to the club. He is slowly but surely making all the right decisions in terms of sorting out the infrastructure for the future - not a small act I might add, given the complete mess the whole club was in when he took over. I believe he responds to these press reports in the right way and at the right time, only reacting when he really feels the need and when he has something useful to say. Contrast that to Lowe and his wish to talk more than the Manager? I think there is a real need for the club to recognise and support the ex-Saints that matter. However, where do you draw the line with that support? If an ex-Saint is asked to get up and speak after dinner in one of the Exec suites for example, he'll want to be paid for it I suspect or at least receive a free Exec ST. The easy answer for the club is say, "your welcome here but please pay your way".

Having been in the company of some of these guys at recent games, my observation would be there's no trouble between the parties concerned.

MOD = Must Obliterate Discussion??? (-;

Just wait until Barnet see him play - they'll be ditching him at the first opportunity. The games I've seen him play he's a complete waste of space on a football field and an unnecessary drain on the clubs finances.

Never liked the lad.

Coffee over keyboard moment there! LOL! Excellent Trousers - truly excellent.

LOL - I knew that would draw a comment the moment I posted it! LOL

FFS - 3 minutes of my life wasted.

Just don't let Pompey get hold of the proceeds otherwise it might go missing to pay for illegal players. lol

Meh. Great game of football - like two prize fighters slugging it out toe to toe. Trouble is Adkins didn't change things around early enough which meant the midfield was overrun and the defence was put under too much pressure. We didn't keep possession and pass the ball around like we did against Utd. There were some individual errors but this ultimately cost us the 3 points.

It's true that the 1st goal can be blamed at Davis - it was a pretty soft goal for an ex-Prem keeper to concede. The 2nd was all Hardings fault - he lost his man simple. Bart is OK, however is distribution is worse than Davis and he would make as many mistakes I feel. Davis has played some excellent football in the past, but I would have swapped their keeper for ours any day of the week though - he kept them in the game and showed how to do it time after time.

Completely agree with this point of view. If you score four goals away from home and don't win, the defence must come under scrutiny and Seaborne had a mare of a game frankly despite the fact that he was up against the best striker in the league. Harding made one crucial mistake by not sticking with his mark - one mistake but a fundamental one. I think some blame must also go to the management team - at 2-4 they should have made a change to the formation immediately...they didn't and our midfield was overrun. We sat too deep trying to make up for the fact Posh were able to advance through the midfield much too easily.

Again, the lack of transfers in this window tells us NA and NC have done some excellent business.

Top post and I completely agree. I am astounded that there are muppets on here that don't realise what has been achieved in this window.

Not sure how you are in a position to judge them yet on their standard IN THIS TEAM!?!? The team (in L1) at full strength could probably not be bettered, so anyone who comes in is not going to get an immediate start unless there are injuries. They have come in to bolster the squad and provide an alternative when others are injured or need a rest (or go to jail). So by that reasoning they HAVE improved the team significantly, where significant means without them we would need to play players out of position - e.g. Dickson on the wing. PS: My take on this window is 9/10. Pretty damn good business keeping hold of some exceptional talent, signing perm deals and bringing in new blood. Fantastic really.

Incredible morons on here that think a few posters on a Scunny forum represent the whole fanbase and provide an accurate assessment of a player! AND for some unfathomable reason these same nutters cannot seem to come to terms with the simple fact that (a) this lad might flourish among the better players we have in our squad (yes, they are collectively better than the Scunny squad) and (b) he will also benefit from the far better coaching facilities this club offers. The club has basically answered all the questions asked of it over the transfer window - players we wanted retained - we've retained. New blood with pace on the wings and a striker...one purchased and one loaned...done deal. And we've kept Oxo when everyone was convinced he would go, which is a fantastic show of commitment from NC who really does believe in the long-term plan. Frankly, if you're disappointed with the outcomes of this notoriously difficult window it's obvious common sense has somehow eluded you. We need to give the boy 2-3 games to settle in before the boo boys get to work on him.

£50m!!!! The football world and in particular the Prem is quite literally disappearing up it's own arse!

Fixed. (;

And it's for that reason that I am OUT! LOL

ah ha.

Good player - surprise signing...so which defender is on the way out?
