As long as the power hungry sociopathic criminals who head these 'terrorist' organisations can persuade gullible fools that blowing up 'infidels' and apostates will grant them an eternal place in Paradise, this will continue.

Nothing I have seen of him in a Saints shirt has altered the opinion of him that I held before we bought him - a limited player who's work rate far exceeds his technical ability. ( The sort of player who, when in the opposition team, is always likely to score against us, despite his limitations ).

The way things are going, one of the proposed starting 11 will do a hamstring in the pre-match warmup.

Get rid - he loses the ball too easily, goes to ground rather than taking on defenders, can't shoot or cross for toffee, and is a liability defending.

We PAID for Long and Mane - any price was 'over'.

Fixed it.

Any chance of offloading Mane in the window ?

Living in Lancashire, local radio gives you a different perspective on 'regional' football to that you might get with Solent ;-)

This thread runs the risk of introducing a serious political debate into TMS, but I think the subject matter needs to be brought to the attention of Muppets everywhere : http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/a-long-list-of-sex-acts-just-got-banned-in-uk-porn-9897174.html http://www.theguardian.com/culture/2014/dec/12/face-sitting-protest-outside-parliament-against-new-porn-rules?CMP=fb_gu A change has been made to the law that makes it illegal to include certain acts in UK produced Internet hosted 'adult' videos, including Aggressive whipping Penetration by any object "associated with violence" Physical or verbal abuse (regardless of if consensual) Urolagnia (known as "water sports") Role-playing as non-adults Physical restraint Humiliation Female ejaculation Strangulation Facesitting Fisting Is this another example of a Nanny State ? ( Provided that Nanny isnt spanking 'baby' ! ) Or is it just the Tories reducing the chances of their private activities leaking into the public domain ?

Where did you see that ? It's currently persisting down oop 'ere in Lanky, but whilst there may be some light snow in the offing for tomorrow morning, the forecast for Dingleland on Saturday is chilly ( 3 to 5 degrees ) the precipitation looks like it will be limited to showers, possibly with a little sleet.

Exactly, it looked like Wanyama started tracking him and gave up, and the 'tater suggested he was actually Bertrand's target, and he'd stayed out holding a high line.

Out of curiosity, why not list the team as Fraser, Nathaniel, Jose, Toby, Ryan, Victor, Steve, Morgan, Dusan, Graziano, Shane ? Why do only 2 players get first name familiarity ?

Maybe, maybe not, but I don't think we're playing badly at present, we just got mugged 3 times in a week by teams with vastly superior resources and experience - if Morgan and Toby had been fit tonight I suspect we would have won.

That's RK's judgement call - will Mane represent a bigger risk to Burnley's defence with his attacking, or to ours with his lack of midfield tenacity ?

We are 5th, not 15th, and the difference tonight was down to RVP.

Doesn't really matter, it's now a question of whether that midfield can overcome the Dingles, which surely they can ?

The Dingles are really not that good, and this is a perfect opportunity to get back into our stride. 2-0 Saints, Pelle and Long.

So now Ronald, it's your job to take the team to Turf Moor and prove we are better than the Dingles.

He's paid a large amount of money to use his experience in making judgements in team selection and tactical arrangements. As far as I'm concerned, it's his call, his responsibility, and his neck on the line.

Unless there's a 7 goal turn around, we woulld stay in exactly the same place in the table.

You can't post that on here - this after match thread is for moaning about the manager and slagging off the players. Go and find a 'positive posters' forum to play on.

How many European clubs have you managed, other than on Football Manager ?

Still 5 points above the scousers, and it's not as if weve played badly in the last week, but the squad's depth is being stretched. 3 points at Burnley should be entirely acheivable. Keep the faith.

2 chances for RVP, 2 goals. Pelle and Long both blaze over, that was the difference.
