  1. he is good at his job, and perhaps the players had their nose put out of joint as he had dropped them.Personallyi think it is too early for him, but he has performed wonders getting Bournemouth where they are
  2. CB read the mail report, the headline Super Saints....... And then in the report on the lines of West Ham rubbish and Saints hardly much better. Personally I thought our movement and pace upfront would match Klopps lot, but of course it is not recognised as it should be
  3. was that an hour before the game or with 10 minutes to go lol
  4. I wish to be rude but I think you need to go elsewhere with nonsense like that
  5. Redmond is the most improved player from his start this season to now is immense. He has pace strength and a good footballing brain, add to that a passion to win. He will be a top player for us
  6. i dont know what the fuss is about, quite a few on here would get commemorative plates saying that we finished 7th
  7. you havent just come around from your hangover and now realise you are in Division 4 by any chance?
  8. I am /was a very pro stay voter, but we have to get behind the bizarre decision to leave for all our futures. Us banks and financial institutions may have their own agendas of course. I expect that the City will get the best of the deal as banks do and the government knows that we need it to be strong and so will get special treatment. Its the rest of us that will take the worst.
  9. Personally I think he should persevere as Redmond looks as though he will grow into the role. If it was JRod fans would give him time, give Redmond the slack he deserves and he will be a fans favourite/must play
  10. sadly it probably will be the closest to us ever winning the league.
  11. as much as I dislike Liverpool you really have to admire their inter play when they are clicking. Klopp will make them a title contender if not this season , next
  12. I may be wrong but I think it was one of the worst penalties I have seen by a Saints player
  13. Dubai Phil has one with Dubai on it, it probably has some golfing story written on it somewhere lol
  14. thanks for posting that Trousers. Austin is a goal scorer and obviously has his faults but goals are what we need. Martina is under rated IMO and overall we looked pretty slick on the ball.
  15. I agree, RK wouldnt have wanted to buy him if he was so bad
  16. i cant think it was worse than Rasiak taking the chance for Surman to get a hat trick once. That was deplorable
  17. obviously if you are talking just finance then it wont work ,but we now have 3 players on long contracts, do you want to bet that they wont see out four of the 6years? In theory we could keep them until they have 2 years left and still get your money. We all know though if they do well they will be off in the next summer or so
  18. the other alternative is to sign the player for 3-5 years and let them stay for that period.In that time we may build a team that is so successful that they then want to stay.Fanciful perhaps but you never know.
  19. Tell the Leicester and Everton fans that and they could laugh in your face. Ok they have sold 1 player to other clubs, 3 or 4 season on season and then throw in progressive managers. People say that RK left for more money, well perhaps he left as he knew that everytime he made a decent team he would have to sell. I will always support Saints but it is hard to see players you admire on the pitch constantly get sold.
  20. In the past I would have raged all weekend and still be in poor mood. At the final whistle I just thought 'typical lucky Arsenal' and got on with things. I have Sky but watch few games as they dont inspire me anymore
  21. preferable to having a £200 meal and somebody thinks its ok to pop one out to feed a baby. It seems some people think that their child is the only one in the world and so has to show us all. I suppose next it will be fine to change the nappy at the table as well.
  22. To build partnerships around the world and increase commercial revenue means you have to attract fans. Floating fans will not be attracted to clubs who sell their prized assets year on year. It is disheartening for life time fans let alone fans who have a choice not based on where you were born. I know that we will get 'you cant stop players leaving' etc etc but you can if they are on 2 year contracts or more.
  23. 100% agree.
  24. Can somebody tell us what bargaining power we have with the Americans Chinese etc. They will see us coming to them, cap in hand and trying to look strong with them knowing full well that we need them. It will be like the lend lease at the start of WWII where we had to give away our military bases to the Americans for a load of dodgy and decrepid destroyers etc. Churchill made a saying about 'the deal' at the time but off the top of my head I cant recall what it was.
