Jesus - I agree !!! In the same was Walsall deserved to beat us because they scored !!!

Of course there is !! What a ridiculous comment ! All those issues you listed for Walsall dont determine the result of a game; only goals do, in the same way points determine table position. The point is that there are some people inferring or explicitly saying Walsalls win was undeserved despite them scoring, who will then say "we got more points than Bournemouth, we deserve to finish above them" if it happens ! Yep, they are deservedly there. No "" about it. They've played, they've got the points in the bag. We demonstrated spectacularly on Tuesday that points in the bag is better than games in hand. And you only made this point because you (still) arrogantly expect us to win the games in hand, so have learned absolutely nothing from Tuesday's debacle !

I am still marvelling at how many of you have completely missed the point. I completely agree with your post. Furthermore, I also feel that because Walsall got the little leathery thing between the two big woodeny things and we didnt, over the 90mins, they deserved to win. Therefore I dont get all the people that have come on here, whining about how great we played against Walsall and it was "bad luck" or Saturns conjunction with Uranus or whatever the f**k that denied us the victory we "deserved". And I bet the very same people would have no compunction about us "mugging" Bournemouth for 2nd place during the last game of the season, despite them occupying that place for so much of the season. Still, some people will never get the irony...

And we have been goaless this season already in twice as many games as the whole of last season.

From Tuesday night's outburst, I am assuming that Ferguson thinks he wont be needing a helping hand to win the League from Martin Atkinson in the way he needed it to get past us in the FA cup ?

Thought so..

You dont have anything to say about the subject, do you ?

We can hit a cows arse when the opposition is nice enough to let us. We are completely incapable of breaking down determined teams.

So we should forget it. The team wont turn up for those away matches for a start.

Great. so, if we can be bothered to fight for a lead, we get brave enough to go on and pummel teams. Play against a team that dares to say "BOO!!" to us, and we crumble. Not promotion mentality, I'm afraid.

I reckon NC could be swayed on this - if NA saw the value in this and could identify the player. NC wants promotion. Period. He isnt Rupert Lowe.

Why did it affect us at all (re: Bournemouth) ? All sorts wrong at Saints, manager a little out of his depth, players with stinking attitude problems.

It is beginning to look like that. Bournemouth lost their manager, and the difference in form before/after was seamless

In addition, apparently we have also failed to score 12 times in 31 occasions this season - already double the number for the whole of last season. In short, we cant hit a cows arse with a banjo this season.

Walsall was not a one-off freak result, however.

Yep. Much as I see it. He didnt exactly stand up and be counted and take the initiative for leading us out of the mess.

The folly of buying Idiakez does not mean that off-loading Oakley was a mistake.

Sample size has some impact on accuracy, not on direction or principle. Give it up, I design ADCs for a living so you wont win that argument with me.

Hmmm what ? The threads are driven by discussion and debate, which means disagreement. What is there to disagree with about the tragedy of Deano's death ?

Its drummed into the kids at the Utopia Planitia Training Academy, apparently...

EDIT: and any web-mongs that choose to contribute...

Definitiely better than being in Walsall on a Tuesday evening, freezing my knackers off, watching our promotion campaign fall apart, at least.

Not at all. Whilst it was actually quite funny, threads devoted to personal attacks are completely against site rules. You might as well have titled it "Alpine Saint is a C**t", its the same thing. To be honest, this thread says more about you than me....

Can a kindly mod please lock what is clearly a thread devoted to a personal attack ? Maybe a little word in his ear is also not out of the question. Thanks muchly...
