Play offs for us it is. We ain't even performing! NA out!

comment from a bompey fan. does he have a point? Do you think Southampton played well, given the money spent on the team and the value of some of the players? I thought the team were much worse than those first two games at St Marys. A lot of it was hit and hope, Barnard can't challenge without fouling and Fonte just hoofs everything, I didn't see him control the ball and do anything with it. I happen to think he played well, but looked like a good 3rd division centre half. Consensus from where I sat was that Southampton were not that impressive. You beat us, well done. The team that cost hardly any money beaten by the multi million pound team. Sheffield Weds and Orient played far better recently. I thought Southampton would run away with the league, but they haven't and I think that is about attitude and team spirit and an average manager. If Eddie had agreed to go you would have been top, but he didn't and you're not. Looks like the play offs for you.

Sorry didnt realise was posted.

Dear Bucket Rattlers Stop it, just stop it. Enough is enough. Your infatuation with us has surpassed even the mildest mannered of Saints supporters now. Those whom, like me, went along to support and contribute to one of the money spinning friendlies between the two clubs when you were in dire financial straights – only to be abused remorselessly for the duration of the game. “Scummers! Scummers!” you shouted at us as we stood there, completely bemused as to where this hatred had come from. Many, like me, had always looked out for Bournemouth results and had cheered whenever the tannoy announcer at The Dell or St.Mary’s announced that the Cherries had won. You have left us feeling rather confused and if truth be told, a little angry. I know I am. You accuse us of arrogance. That’s an incredible statement coming from a side that has dwelled beneath us for decades. Sure, some Saints fans have in the past alluded to the fact that we are probably too big a club for this league. That’s the truth. If you’d take the time to look at the facts then you might agree, too. We average more than many Premier League clubs and likewise, Championship clubs. However, don’t be fooled; we KNOW implicitly that football is not decided on attendances alone. We know we must earn the right to get out of this division like everyone else. Don’t confuse “arrogance” with what is clearly an educated and correct assessment of the size of our club. We are a medium sized Premier League club and no amount of bleating and accusations of arrogance will change that. Yet you must also remember that despite this, most if not all Saints fans recognise that we have no god-given right to be a Premier League side. So, with that in mind, please dispel any misconceptions you have about us being arrogant. Bournemouth, on the other hand, can be dutifully proud of their own snobbish and arrogant behaviour. One season at level pegging with us divisionally and you’ve gone into meltdown. You have the temerity to accuse us of arrogance while chomping on your sticks of rock. Then, at another level, you are very quick to forget that we did help you in the times you needed financial help. Neil Moss, remember him? Advance payment. Loan players like Surman and Lallana in recent years… remember them? Friendlies, fundraisers and pitch maintenance equipment too – you even received help from our ground staff! Is it me, or have you forgotten to thank us? Christ, it’s like dealing with a spoilt child. And before you begin whining that I’ve mentioned that we’ve helped you and you accuse my comments of atypical arrogance that you’ve received from us, please remember one thing; Did you, or did you not receive that help? Yes. Yes you did. If anyone is arrogant, it is you for completely bypassing those parts of your history. But we’re not done yet. Oh no, I’ve still more points to make. Let’s talk about your “plucky underdog” mentality. “Big bad Southampton” are coming to visit. “Nasty, horrible Southampton” whose fans kill babies and rape women (and men, probably too – I’ve seen the scaremongering rubbish in your local paper from Neil Meldrum). Led by their evil mastermind, Don Cortese! Give it a rest you morons. You like to remind us that we too, are a “nothing club”. In terms of the top six or so clubs in the Premier League and a few traditional founding football members spattered across the leagues or now defunct, yes, you’re right. We’ve achieved nothing. Yet, if our best achievements include treading water in the top division for 27 consecutive years amongst the real big, bad bullies of the Premier League and a couple of cup final appearances, then I'd take that over "plucky Bournemouth". Remind us, what have you achieved? Oh, that’s right. You’re a “plucky underdog”, I remember now. Still, teams of a similar size have achieved far more than you in recent times. Blackpool? Well, they’re in the Premier League. Hull? Swindon? Notts County? Oldham? They’ve all been in the top division over the past twenty years. Brighton? Colchester, S****horpe, Plymouth, Luton, Southend, Bury, Crewe, Walsall, Stockport, Doncaster? They’ve got further than you, too. That’s a lot of plucky underdogs not weighed down with a significant chip on their shoulders. Hell, even MK Dons have won more in their short existence than you lot. So that makes you a "plucky, underachieving underdog". Diddums. So if you’re going to remind us that our existence in the Premier League was pointless than I am almost duty-bound to remind you that you’ve been nothing in the lower leagues too. Forgive me. Oh no, wait - poke it. I'm not done yet. And by the way, I’d take our Matt Le Tissier memories to your Roger Boli moments every day of the week, ta. At first, you reminded me of Portsmouth’s annoying little brother with all the “Scummer” comments. It was almost as if you were pulling at your big brothers coat tails and saying “Look, look, we called them a scummer too!”. But over the past few days (possibly weeks), you’ve been frothing at the mouth, fantasising about playing us again and creating some sort of rivalry. From being Portsmouth’s annoying, perhaps retarded little brother you’ve transformed. Forgive me, but in my imagination now you’ve morphed into a crazed, wide-eyed stalker. You’re obsessed with us, yet you are convinced that despite our constant reaffirmation that we don’t care about you, it’s us who is stalking you. Truth is you’ve been tailing us ever since the final whistle at Burton Albion. “Que sera sera, whatever will be, will be, we’re going to St.Mary’s, que sera sera” Remember that? How cringeworthy. Yet you say its our Cup final and not yours? Are you sure about that, or are you just being arrogant? Hang on, I thought you said you were the “plucky underdogs”? Which is it, Cherries? So, from a benign if slightly annoying neighbour to a crazy, rabidly obsessed one. The type whom is always peering through his binoculars and into our garden. Enjoy your Cup Final.
