I think the only room we are likely to share is a padded cell Shurlock!!

It is simple. We are not allowed to lose. We can occasionally draw but it is better if we do so by coming back from 2-0 down and equalising with the last kick. If we do lose the manager is crap. Whatever the result JWP is crap. The Board have no ambition and are just in it for the money. None of them knows anything about running a football club. If players wish to leave the club to further their career it is the fault of the Board. Cortese was a footballing genius and the Board screwed up big time by not letting him have all the money he wanted so that his dream of Championship football could have been fulfilled. If you aren't a bed wetter you are a Happy Clapper and as such your views are null and void when we lose (or sometimes draw) a football match. It is important to pint out at least every two days how poor we have been since we let Morgan go and how we haven't replaced him. Koeman is only interested in Dutch players and will play them (or any who have played football in Holland) regardless. Koeman is clueless tactically. He got lucky last year. The Leibherrs are tight fisted bastards who are holding us back by not ploughing their money into our football club. It is Les Reed's fault that Toby Alderweireld decided to sign for Spurs. I may have missed a few things out but if you stick to these guidelines you cant go far wrong on here.

Is he dead yet?

From a member of Her Majesty's forces? Treason surely?

Every time I post on this thread I see that the attack hamster tag team are out in force. If you are referencing me I can save you some time as I have you both on ignore and only see your posts when they are quoted in other posts. This is in deference to Hypo who got his knickers in a twist when I put him on ignore but committed the huge crime of still reading a post of his. Merry Christmas to the both of you.

Does having a bottom four budget (if that is the case) equate with having no ambition? You can still have European ambitions on a budget. You chances of achieving those ambitions will not be as good but how much have Leicester spent in comparison with us?

Indeed. If he turns out as well as I don't see how anyone can complain ( I am sure they will though because he is not Schneiderlin).

So you have decided not to answer my question Batman? Fair enough.

Would it be so much easier if the opposition didn't outplay us at all during a game. Those other pesky Premiership teams need to stop trying to beat us.

I am no goalkeeping expert but I do think that any keeper would have struggled with most if not all of those that Liverpool put away the other week. On top of that I struggle to think of many times this season when I have thought that was down to the keeper. Stek hasn't had the cover that FF had last year. Have you ever played in goal? It really isn't that easy when players have time and space to place their shots. You can say he should be doing better all day long but there is only so much any keeper can do. I really don't think he has done a poor job for us.

I still cant believe that Clasie has been written off so soon???

And that is what football is all about. Liverpool hit the back of the net with virtually every shot they had against us the other day. On other days those shots will go into row z or be saved. It has been a very strange season so far. Who would have thought that Leicester would do so well consistently every week? Apart from them anyone is capable of beating anyone else it seems at the moment.

I still cant get my head around that Liverpool performance. Strangely I think we would have played better if we had played their strongest side. Probably going a goal up so early didn't help either mentally. But after all these years of supporting Saints we know we are capable of being total pants one day and playing a decent side off the park the next. I am hoping that we do so with Spuds.

He might be on to something here. Perhaps we should have a release clause for every manager who loses games in December?

I am mentioning you because I asked you a question. You chased me up for answers regarding another question so I am chasing you up. I am more interested in your response to this question than I am in the religious beliefs of a media wannabe by the way.

Batman seems to have slunk back into his cave. Gotham City to Batman, any thoughts on border closures for Muslims?

And it happens every season every time we lose a few matches. Les Reed is useless when he was a hero before. Koeman was the best manager we have had for years and now he is useless. The squad is the best we have had and now they are useless. It is the same crowd though who are still bitter about Cortese going and players leaving, most of whom probably had soggy matresses for the last two summers, who come out of the woodwork to have a pop when things are not going well. Do you know what. It is a game. I my lifetime only one team has gone through a season unbeaten. We are going to lose matches. We are going to play poorly. It is what it is all about. If you cant handle that part of the process it might be better that you find something else to follow that doesn't give you so much angst. None of us like losing but at least some of us can keep some kind of perspective when it happens.

Hopkins is here because in her interview with Andrew Neill (see earlier vid post) she made a big point about not enough Muslims coming out and condemning the terrorist attacks. Specifically she said not enough for her, as if she gets to decide on the number or decides how many are enough.

Yes it is a shame you missed that because she tried to get it in a couple of times so it was clearly an issue for her. As for Mr Fry's comments in your post, doesn't he know that I am supposed to be the one making things up. not him?

You are getting these questions because you have decided that I am an idiot and I am trying to engage in a debate with you. You talking about the people railing against me here as if it is the majority of the forum. It is a handful of the Usual Suspects who gang together to have a go at people in tandem. Yes, it happens to others too. I don't think I have said anything controversial yet the cabal have decided that I have and I just wonder why that is? When I pointed out that a poll showed moderate Muslims in a positive light one went to town on me because 10% weren't (yes a staggering 90% were against the terrorists). I was told I was spinning the figure. I really don't see how anyone can argue that peaceful Muslims are a problem but if I say they are harmless or say that Christians (and any other type of person you care to mention) also commit murder and rape I am treated by these few as if I have said something outrageous. I don't know what their agenda is but you have to wonder. I have never supported the terrorists yet to read some of their posts you would think that I do, that is why I don't bother to read several of their posts anymore. I mentioned Hopkins because I didn't care for the her assertion that she feels that more Muslims should come out against the outrages. Perhaps you need to read my posts more carefully Whelk instead of jumping in with the Jolly Boys all the time?

Hi Verbal, apologise/condem, there is an inference with either that there is some kind of responsibility on the shoulders of those who are totally innocent. As you say, Muslims do come and speak against the atrocities but if you watch the interview with Hopkins, not enough. How many is enough? Why does she get to decide? How many times do they have to do it? I can understand why some people might want to stand up and distance themselves from the atrocities. I can also understand those who think it has nothing to do with them don't say anything. Because it has nothing to do with anyone apart from the murderous bastards who chose to commit these atrocities.

It is. Liverpool just scraped a draw at home to WBA. Which is no reason for us wetting the bed given our recent results. But then I am not allowed to say that because it is all doom and gloom and we need to start panicking about relegation.

The mighty Spurs and their mighty manager going down at home to Newcastle. Oh dear.

Ok Whelk, another inane question for you as my original issue with Hopkins seems to have been hijacked and taken off at a pointless tangent... My initial point was that why should moderate Mulsims who have nothing to do with the terrorists acts have to come out and apologise for those acts? Why also should Hopkins be the one that say that there arent enough public apologies from Islam about the atrocities? Do you think that the bloke over the road (who happens to be a peaceful Muslim) should come out and make a public apology for the Paris shootings? Does he have a responsibility for people who use his religion as an excuse to butcher people? Do you think the peace march in London the other weekend by Muslims meant anything or should we still fear all Muslims? How do you feel about Shaker Aamer who spent 14 years in captivity in Guantanamo Bay and is saying to extremists in Britain to "get the hell out" of Britain? Do we ignore him as him as another possible terrorist or do we listen to him as a moderate Muslim who despite having every reason to hate "The West" is coming out firmly against terrorists (probably still not enough for our Katie though). I don't know about you but I see plenty of Muslims coming out and saying not in my name. Doesn't stop Trump and the likes of Batman wanting to close the borders to them though even though they have done nothing wrong. Feel free to correct me Batman if you are happy to keep the borders open to peaceful Muslims.

I would say that they were a terrorist. I have no sympathy or time for anybody who takes innocent lives and have said that many times.
