Saint Billy

I'm not a big admirer of JWP, but to be fair he is just one of many in this team who are not up to the job and unfortunately most of them reside in the midfield area's.

Remind you of somewhere else?

Some peoples expectations are fuelled by some of the sound bytes coming from the club over the last few years. Personally I have never been taken in by them and I am happy to see us compete in the top league. What does upset me is watching dreadful football week after week with hardly a shot at goal in anger with some players seemingly disinterested. It was not so long ago that we were well regarded for our expansive football. You cannot blame supporters for getting agitated witnessing this week after week.

Why do some blindly ignore them?.

His job will be saved courtesy of saints no doubt.

Tailor made for Palaces first home win I think.

This all started last season so its nothing new.

The whole setup is wrong and failing, not just Black.

Well yes it was but we have simply replaced Puel with like for like.

Makes you wonder whether it would have been better to have flogged VVD and forked out the 70 mill into seriously rebuilding this shower, at least half the side are not up to the job and now we are stuck with them. I am not going to blame the manager.................. Just yet.

Just carry on as we are and forget about VVD. He has blighted our summer but he is not going to spoil our season. The fool can kick a ball about in his garden until January as far as I'm concerned.

Very funny, thanks for that

I've never been that much into sadomasochism myself but hey if it presses your buttons good on ya , but then again I'm watching England

Spurs score

Can't expect anything else with Southgate as manager.

Painful init!.

Is anyone watching saints play Malta?

Strange that we have not heard from him in some way.

Football fans are contrary. VVD will come back, score a winner and the fans will all be creaming themselves again and singing his name.

How about a pre match flogging.

Just another big feckin anti climax of a transfer deadline day as always.

I'll be glad when this fekin transfer window is done and will be even more delighted to see the back of vvd. I have a gut feeling that he will go to the arse with some sort of part deal with one of their fringe players.

I like the word ''nobbers''.

Perhaps he won't sign our 7 year contract offer.

Good decision to sell him, apart from the odd moment he has never added anything.
