  1. No I wasn't Andy, and I know what you are going to say - "shut up, he was our best player" Well as I said sometimes he is good, others he is bad, like any young player. So, as you were obviously there was he playing up front or was he tucked behind Lambert ? If he was playing up front then thats one thing, but if he was playing in the hole then thats my point entirely, we are changing formation every other game, home and away, and for what reason ? It was Carlisle FFS, I can understand playing one up front at Charlton but Carlisle ? My point is he is not a natural goalscorer, he is not a wide midfield player so my question still stands - what is he ? what is his position ?
  2. When we equalised Jeff Stelling said something like "Matt Le Tissier, sit down, wherever you are".......so I guess he is just on holiday, I'm sure he wouldnt have been mentioned had he been sacked.....Rod Marsh never was after he left !!!
  3. Well I will say it, sod it, but I think AP's determination to play Lallana is actually harming us and our chances of scoring at the moment. To accomodate him we either play only one up front, usually away, or we sacrifice a wide player at home, cos Lallana will not stay out wide, mainly becaue he is not a wide player. He is not a forward, he is not a wide midfielder, I still struggle to work out exactly what he is. Sometimes he looks good, sometimes he looks average, he is a luxury player and I dont think we can afford luxury players at the moment. Ok, he has scored a couple but he will not be a prolific scorere cos, as I said, he is not a forward. Now our previous luxury player was a different kettle of fish altogether cos he could win a game single handedly, Adam will not do that IMHO. I would drop him for 3 or 4 games, go with 2 up front adn 2 genuine wide players and lets see what happens....cos at the moment the Lallana must be fitted in somewhere plan is not working !
  4. Comes to something when you need to go onto carlisle's web site to find our subs ! Bart, Perry, Wotton, Saga, Papa, Holmes and Patterson
  5. Thats what I would have done to be honest, he's played there before during his career.
  6. I didnt know that about Cottee...tut tut. In fairness it is a good question, has Matt been dropped or just "rested" ? Given that its all blown over shouldn't he be back in the next few weeks ?
  7. After the doom, gloom and depression of the previous regime at Southampton FC its good to read, and see for ones self, how much more professional this club is now running. I guess the deeper the low you encounter (no pun intended) the higher the highs will be but as with most things patience will be required. There is no overnight fix to the years of decay that we were subjected to unfortunately.
  8. Oh yes, we were lucky he didnt talk up to the 8.00 news !!
  9. Its Perry McMillan btw !!
  10. The worst thing about the Manchester derby injury time fiasco yesterday was Fergie sharing a joke with the 4th official when United scored. What did he do, tell him to get his mate to blow the final whistle ?
  11. Having walked past just as the Yeovil fans had clambered over the barrier up onto the road one of them was shouting at his mate to get away, but he wasnt having any of it and wanted to go back for more ! All very sad and stupid. The police officers stood between the railings and the pub were quite frankly pathetic, they just stood there and did nothing.....at worst they should have escorted those Yeovil fans away for their own safety, at best they should have made some arrests.....but they were like statues !
  12. Well having seen that I have changed my mind about the first.....i thought at the time Saga did the old Swan Lake routine.....but best I get down to Specsavers I reckon
  13. A thread of ridiculous statements and assumptions just gained another one !!
  14. Looks good.....just hope it doesnt fall victim of some mindless morons with a black spray can !
  15. I think he will be at his best if he just stands in the middle and gets his head to everything that comes into the box. When he was a third of the way up the pitch it seemed to take him a lifetime to get back into position.....in fact a couple of times he turned in installments !! But having said that, he's bound to be rusty and I think he will prove to be a great signing.
  16. It really defies belief doesn't it ? I thought he looked like he will be a handfull for most defences in this league.
  17. Echo web site has the info - AP says he is about 3 weeks away. Now I really hope this proves to be true for two reasons - the most obvious being that he looks a fine player and his experience helps the others, the second being that it will shoot down in flames all the drama queens who shouted "conspiracy - career over - they aren't telling us, blah blah blah"
  18. Quite.....I havent watched the Skate loving bar stewards for years now. The only decent one is Andrew Pate....he should move to the BBC
  19. Forecast, Lancashire, Pulis and Thompson...........i know its four but hell why not. If only three keep the goalkeeper.
  20. we would...................but why oh why did he leave Papa until injury time to come on ?
  21. leave him til injury time......................ridiculous
  22. you'll be safe
  23. To be fair if you are listening to a game where the opposition are all over us its not rocket science to work out a change or two may be required
  24. Its too early, we haven't got to the 85th minute yet !!!
  25. as soon as we let one in panic sets in...................we have seen it time and time again !
