Never. I never have nor ever will make any attempt to hurt somebody with personal abuse. Call someone a muppet, poke fun at them, have a bit of light-hearted banter absolutely, I do that all the time. But I would never resort to serious personal insults if I don't like somebody's character or disagree with them on a certain issue. All my supposed 'wum' antics are purely farcical, hoping to make folks laugh and put smiles on their faces. Unfortunately my good intentions have been ruined by sad souls who take life and everything they read oh so seriously (if in the OP you didn't realize "pathetic, half-hearted" was tongue in cheek, I feel sorry for you). I came here with the sole intention of making this place better, alas, I've inexplicably made it worse. Due to the overwhelming amount of abuse, prejudice and name calling I've been subjected to, you will all be pleased to know this post is my last contribution on here. I quit. Mods if you read this please ban me or delete my account as apparently I am unable to do so myself. Please and thank you. Goodbye SWF. (and don't worry I won't let the door hit me on the way out)

Then why don't you join the 90% of forum members who have me on ignore? You are just as sad by a) considering me a troll, b) calling me out on being a troll, c) WANTING me to be a troll so I can give you bait on which you can seem authoritative and credible, and look cool in front of other posters. AFAIC, only Dig Dig, Olallana and Glasgow on here are worth my time at all and can hold a decent conversation without resorting to abuse. I'm sure there are other good folks on here too, but they all have me on ignore so what's the f**king point.

Absolutely appalling the abuse one gets on here. I'm the one who should be ashamed of myself for attempting to amicably communicate with such low-lifes. As Saints 'fans' I'm sure you project a wonderful image of what we stand for wherever you go... tbh I am disgusted that there exist such fans of this great club. Disgraceful.

This is quite possibly the greatest interview of all-time. Chris Stark is still a plank though.

HTH.

Apples and oranges mate. Not only was Billy not a regular starter last year but provided so much more than just goals. Jayrod does f**k all, not to mention his two league goals were both lucky, one a rebound that fell in his path, the other a strange defender/goalkeeper mixup. Sorry I don't rate the lad, never have, never will and maintain that the £7m we paid for him is one of the biggest farces in this club's history, it's laughable to say the least.

Why? We're not getting rid of Jayrod anytime soon and with this useless numpty seemingly a favourite under MP and a regular starter, Billy won't be getting a look-in if he comes back.

Don't feed the trolls.

Yer that was kind of implied...

Think I already stated my agenda loud and clear on this forum thank you very much.

Please don't sugar coat it, he's sh*te.

Fantastic news, future full internationals the pair of them without a shadow of a doubt.

Compared to 80% fewer goals at 580% the price, yes that is more regular than Puncheon on a Monday night!

For someone as negative as myself (according to this forum anyway) even I can now tell you that those will be the easiest three points we get all season. We can almost write this game off now as a 'win'.

Who the hell cares who the next manager is? This team is going down faster than a sack of spuds in a famine.

Worst ref in the prem. I for one am prepared for a scene like this if this numpty does anything suspicious or makes a dumb decision. Who's with me? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9rE4m6BNXg&gl=GB&hl=en-GB

One of the biggest issues I have with the new management apart from the obvious lack of results and pathetic half-hearted performances, is the entertainment factor. Never in my life did I ever think watching Saints play was akin to watching paint dry. At least watching paint dry you know something will eventually happen - the paint WILL dry! With Saints at the moment it is a case of "all fart and no sh*t", where you almost know for a fact there is nothing coming in terms of goals despite us dominating games of football. Watching Saints for me has sadly become a chore and not a pleasure. Your thoughts on the current regime's 'attractive' style of football?

I think we could have made it much easier for ourselves if we'd changed our tactics to make scoring a goal the priority, rather than bossing the game, controlling possession, containing the opposition and pressing when we didn't have the ball. Under Nigel on Saturday was a perfect opportunity to pull a Stoke - 3 goals before half-time because we went at them right from the off, no patience or possession style football. With this new style of play we've been found out ever so quickly and teams know they are better off sitting back and watching us harmlessly pass the ball around, then hit us on the break or with a simple long ball. We're making it too easy for opponents, we're far too 'nice' in a football sense and allowing defenders to crowd us out and make chances a) hard to come by and b) half-chances because defenders are all over us having watched our every patient move prior to creating the chance. If you can get replays of certain games under Nigel - notably Villa second half, QPR first half, Newcastle, Spurs second half, Stoke first half, you'll notice the clear difference. Our playing style was far, far more likely to result in goals than under the current regime.

Just searched the thread and can confirm the answer's no. Now's your chance mate.

They get for £1.2m what we failed to get for £7m - a regular goalscorer. Good luck to Billy and to them, always liked that club.

Get the point - we're not playing well. This is almost independent of the fact Adkins was sacked. Taking that into account makes our plight look even more ridiculous and self-inflicted.

hmm, I wonder what drastic change happened at the club recently? That's right we completely revamped our starting line up with all former regulars now on the bench, therefore it must be the players! Do you really need me to go on another rant about MP's horrendous tactics?

Had to look that up, it was 34%. Safe to say 12% possession in a game will be a Sunday league style one-sided trouncing.

How is this thread still alive ffs.

Or, in my case, all three! ;)
