Has to be Dowie (was my pick before Pearson, along with Billy Davies and Paul Ince) or Boothroyd.

Thanks for that, PR plant. If you had actually been on here before as a fan (even a few days) instead of having just been given your new duties by your boss, you would know that nickh stated he would withdraw his support for Lowe if he did not sack Poortvillet. That was what my post was about.

Christ, what a load of revisionist drivel. So everything was hunky-dory until Burley left ? Riiight.... We were going backwards last season under Burley (he had completely lost interest and now, it seems to have been disclosed, there had been "words" with the CEO of the time about his personal life), and Dodd and Gorman magnified the problems with their complete ineptitude once the honeymoon period wore off, and we had just lost two of our key players on loan to balance the books, but Pearson came in and with no money and no time managed to forge a team of demotivated and disinterested individuals into a unit, with the help of a couple of the best loans this club has made in years, into a team that stopped shipping goals (he built a better defence in 2 weeks than Burley did in 18months or JP has in 6 months) and in all but 3 cases came away from the game with at least a point. He had an almost impossible job, but pulled it off. I couldnt give a flying f**k how close it was. If he hadnt come in we were down. Even under Burley. Simple as that. I really felt we had the wherewithall for a modest campaign this season, with a united boardroom and united stands. But that twaat Lowe had other plans...

On this thread, yes. And after warning 6 months ago this was where we would end up, and being roundly abused for it, I dont know what right you have to expect otherwise.

I might be a smug attention seeker, but at least I am a correct smug attention seeker. Whereas you are just plain wrong and embarassed. HTH.

Respect to TDD for being able to laugh at himself.

What possible context have I missed behind you saying people should eat humble pie because they thought the entire strategy sucked from the begining and were abused by clowns like you for it ? Oooo, its so hard to admit you were wrong and act with a bit of humility, isnt it ? As for incorrect predictions - LOL

No.

Maybe in future you should refrain from co.ck-swinging after a few 20min periods of pretty tippy-tappy triangles that dont lead to goals or results, followed by a freak win.............

You're a nob.

Yes, indeed. LOLOLOLOLOLOL, even.... Man, this thread is funny as fook. What a load of arse-crawling gushing bolllocks.

So, nickh, can we assume you've well-and-truly withdrawn your support for Lowe, then ??

Well, that's our relegation fate sealed then

Has Poortvillet been sacked yet ? I must have missed the announcement..

I disagree that Crouch has more power than us - for as long as Wilde is allied with the Lavender Hill Mob, he is completely impotent. THE FANS HAVE THE POWER. STOP ATTENDING HOME MATCHES. Barclays wil have Lowe out in no time.

Oh, because it ended there with Lowe, didnt it ? How much did we get for our Man of The Season again ? You are beginning to sound as bad as Illingsworth. I especially liked your comment about Crouch's behaviour at the AGM, considering Lowe set out to turn that into the farce it became.

I was extremely piissed when he put Rasiak and Skacel out on loan on the last day of the trasnfer window a year ago, but compared to utter stinking f**k-up that Lowe and Wilde have presided over since, that now seems like a bagatelle. It seems to me Crouuch knew the problems and had a plan which would have taken us down a similar cost-saving route with more conventional and successful footballing philosophy, attendances would have been more stable, the losses less, the cost-cutting required less and the club would not have been staring relegation and administration in the face.

A real pity Lowe hasnt put the same level of energy and cunning into rescuing the f**king club as he has rescuing himself..

Maybe Barclays have a bit more nous about the business than we give them credit for, and someone from them wants to actually judge if the season, and therefore the club, is actually rescueable...

Do you think the Barclays actually called the meeting ? Btw, I have been in full agreement with you from the onset. We are in admin already, we just havent had the points loss.

Yep. Jack Cork is nothing to do with Saints anymore. He decided Watford was a better prospect. He should keep his sticky beak out of our business.
