I don’t think Tells is the future of football like some of our fans b it he’s got to be better than Walcott and Djneppo. Unless he’s really dropped off, in which case his decent showings were as far as he will go, or like other players, he’s got on the wrong side of the dear leader.

Can’t imagine the really local brewing companies would be able to meet the type of commercial/financial requirements needed. It would also need to be quite a creative deal to make it work alongside the Kingfisher deal. Would be nice though.
-
Regardless of whether he goes on to be decent for anyone else, selling him was the best sale the club has made for some time.

It’ll be similar to when Rupert Lowe was in charge. Whomever wants to invest has to promise to keep the current leadership team in place. I know plenty will disagree but we aren’t far off where we were with Rupert in charge. The club are still crap commercially, there is no money to invest, they don’t understand fans, and we celebrate things that are irrelevant to the football (see digital ‘content’ awards and nice hospitality whereas once it was a radio station and…hospitality). Rupert at least did put some great people in the academy, whether by fluke or design. Like good ol’ Rupes, they also think they’re brilliant and they’re the only ones who can do the job they do, and therefore probably wouldn’t step aside for a great investor who’d really make us a solid outfit. You can hear this when Semmens says we (as in he) have to find the right people and at its core, that means keeping him in charge. Maybe he’s the right person, maybe not but if he and his team had to step aside, would they do it for the benefit of the advancement of SFC? After all, he was the architect behind Gao buying us so why is he now so trusted to get this next move right?

£6m a year contract so whatever that works out at. Losing a player to pay off a manager would be slightly mad, but also, totally a Saints thing to do
-
I reckon we need to knock this one on the head fellas. We can’t afford to get rid of Ralph financially. We’d be up a very shitty creek with no paddle…and no arms. We just have to hope we can stay up, which we should, but it isn’t going to be a walk in the park.
-
Part of me feels a little sorry for Ralph as players just don’t move the ball forward well enough at all…but then he continues to stick with them and makes strange selections/substitutions. Thank goodness Leeds were heavily down on players as we would likely still be looking for a first win.
-
This tears me apart. Hate the England band but by Jove our quiet fans need a kick up the arse to make some noise!
-
if the club paid for the shirts, I bet they would wear them…although the band member wearing MLT will need to stand 2m away from everyone so it respects his anti-vax stance
-
Good at breaking things up but flippic’ ‘eck, his passing can be piss poor.
-
Will be good to get 3 points but bloody hell, Leeds are sh!te.
-
Gao never said that though, Kat said it…what she didn’t clarify was that it meant it was taking her bank balance to the next level
-
Idiots. Idiots everywhere
-
It’s because we play zonal
-
I used to have lots of sex, now I don’t. I’m not hopeful of having more sex in the future. It’s similar to how I see Ralph’s past, present and future. You live in hope even if you’re not remotely hopeful things will improve.
-
The thing with Djneppo is that he does run around, looks lively but that ‘through ball’ hit way beyond the overlapping runner late on that went out for a goal kick summed him up. His production rate is terrible. 49 matches, 3 goals and 2 assists. We desperately need attacking midfielders who produce goals and assists.
-
Yeah, was very noticeable. Players aren’t playing for him but some of what he does makes it hard to think he knows what he’s doing. Can’t get rid though, we are in too deep with him.
-
Well that was easy…for Wolves. We lose a battle of the shite teams
-
The thing about gambling is that the business of SFC is all about extracting as much money from people as possible. Absolutely fine. What makes a mockery of it is that the spin is that we are a family friendly, community-minded organisation who care about things such as mental health etc. They couldn’t give a fcuk, that’s just marketing bollocks and any sponsorship by betting is the proof. Advice to the club’s directors: just don’t lie when you know it’s about cash and profit and making sure you can pay for kid’s school fees etc. Apartments in Ocean Village when you stay over because you can’t get back to London or wherever early enough.

Hoedt thought he was Van Dijk but he was actually Dryden.
-
To be fair to lyanco, Italy has an appreciation of the defensive art like no other nation so Torino fans had time to judge him thinking of some of the best defenders the game has ever seen. I think he has a long way to go and whether he makes it or not is still to be judged. With us though, he does have some of the most passive, least expectant, and forgiving fans to win over. We don’t make a lot of noise but we also won’t get on peoples back that ferociously. He’s got plenty of time.
-
Mad that Ali Dia only had one match and was written off so quickly
-
This 100%. We could pretty much guarantee him first team football, which none of the big clubs could or would. I’d give him anywhere between 1 or 3 years max with us. If he’s consistent all season, adds a few goals and assists, he will have proven he can cut it and he will be off to one of the giants for a sizeable fee, which is a win-win for the player and club.
-
Is Horseman, like Martin Hunter before him the right person for this job? I’ve said it before but surely someone who is working around these players at this stage needs to also be a mentor and therefore experienced at playing at the highest level or this football club? Radhi should have at least been in with a shout but his face obviously didn’t fit and he was booted out in favour of (most likely) a mate of Matt Hale’s.

Saint and Greavsie was proper football telly…but according to the BBC premier league wankfest documentary and the corporate cocks, football was shit before that. Bollocks was it. RIP to a proper football legend
