Thanks for that. It is actually quite relevant if one of Swansea's best players is not playing.

Is Jordon Ayew liable for a ban if he is found guilty of his challenge on Cahill?

It is in nobody's interest to not get a deal signed so I am sure that we will. I am not naïve in thinking that our friends in the US will do us any favours but I think in time Brexit will give us more flexibility to operate in the global marketplace. I think if we had stayed in our voice would have been even weaker because the issue would have been settled. Ultimately I am pro business and if there is a sharp deterioration then I would be back in like a shot.

I would not contest that immigration was the main factor. The rising population has implications for everybody. 70% is an interesting statistic but I think you have to look at each referendum individually. A vote to change gay marriage is always going to be easier to win that an independence vote for Scotland. For the bookmakers to give 7 to 1 in a two horse race indicates how most felt the vote would go. I would argue that this undoubtedly tipped the balance. It is the same factor that inflated the Labour vote in last years election - people felt they could vote Labour and still not get Corbyn.

All that Europe had to do was to let Cameron implement reasonable restrictions on claiming benefits and to make sure that people travelling to the UK had a job to go to. To not recognise that with a population rising at 300,000+ annually with no form of migration control from Europe was a major concern was either stupid or arrogant.

I don't think you can underestimate that people thought we would vote to stay in. That is why we ended up leaving because people like me voted out thinking there would be no risk. As it happens despite the dramatic slowdown to 0.1% growth in quarter 1, the sky has not fallen in as we were told and I would vote out more comfortably now. If there was a referendum tomorrow you would find that all the people who voted out would still vote out plus a few more. I think however we would vote to stay in the EU because the turnout would be higher and most of the new voters would vote in.

The reason that people voted for Brexit in my opinion were straight forward; It was assumed that we would vote in - you could 7:1 on a leave vote on the day. People felt they could protest and not change anything Free movement. A policy that allowed free movement from places with an average wage of 300 Euros a month to 2500 Euros without any restrictions The way Cameron was treated when he tried to negotiate a better deal.

A very sad day. From my earliest days following Saints it has been part of the ritual to moan about the price of the programmes! Do you remember at the Dell the other scores being put on the board and you had to match the letter in the programme to the game and the player of the season voting slips in the second last game of the season. Those were the days when we had a player of the season.

That is exactly it. I am enjoying going to games again.

They obviously weren't singing

Finally a performance that showed we have the fight to battle relegation.

Genuinely sad. A British sporting Icon.

He has scored three goals.

Would you encourage a grand-child still to be a Saints fan

I was always brought up that you could change your wife but not your football team. My children will be taught the same. Big club supporter's cannot reach the levels of euphoria that we experience when we win. They expect it. -

I was hoping that might make up for you exposing that I wasn't going to Arsenal. -

I have been spoilt in my travels which stretch from Austria to Zambia but the place I reminisce about most is the Dell on a cold dark evening when we were playing in a cup game. -
Cedric Soares - Official: Loaned to Arsenal
Sergei Gotsmanov replied to Saint Garrett's topic in The Saints
He is a class act who handled the interest him in the summer with respect to the club in contrast to Van Dyke. -
Your optimism has lifted my mood this morning!

Why is that relevant? You can still be irked at the way the FA make decisions without considering supporters.
-
It does irritate me how the bread and butter of football, the supporters are treated.

The good news is that if Hughes does prove a success then he will stay with us and not get poached. Silva would have been linked with every job going if he had any success at all. I am a little anxious that Hughes might not be a good fit with the Southampton culture. Maybe that stems from when he played for us and it always felt like he was still an outsider. I think most Saints fans need to reassess their expectations. My definition of a good season is a to finish mid table, a good cup run and several youth team players come through the ranks.

Do you know how many teams have achieved back to back promotions from Division 1 and the Championship? It was quite an achievement.
-
Both Crooks and Lawro set the bar pretty low for punditry. Amateur experts on bankers wages. Garth Crooks who backed James Morrison, a player with 20 something Scottish caps, to play for England and Lawro who announces that Southampton will not go down - clearly Lawro has not even bothered to check the fixture list. What sort of research does that demonstrate.
