I was thinking the other night how are the BBC going to put a saints player on their opening credits lol

Look CB I don't want to get into yet another slanging match, I can't fathom why you dislike NC so much, as he achieved so much. He was the master of our success (on the back of Liebherrs money) I had great fun and yes he did some naff stuff but in the main he did far more good than bad. The stripes thing was the main point in your post, although I do understand why you are angry.Not many pro Reed KL posters out at present. You have now got to the end of your tether it seems, quite a seed change and a good barometer how badly this is all going in the. PR stakes

If KL 'advisors' are on the ball I would hope they tell her to keep away from SMS at the start of the season. Sadly there will be a lot of hotheaded/frustrated fans looking to vent their anger. Her new scarf and the affection of her father will be little defence. I can imagine some of the sick songs already being planned for her. I am of the position it is her club and money and don't expect her to risk that for something she really doesn't have an interest in, but there will be a lot of people out there looking to blame. I expect Reed may also be needing some armour

I think he has been on the sauce. To hate somebody so much because he took the stripes away is bizarre. I liked the last kit more than a red zebra anyway

it will be Les Dawson

his vision got us a top manager and team with spirit and the envy of the majority of most clubs in the English leagues. It was a proud time having the plaudits and watching superb football. His spiel as you put it brought some top players to the club who also bought into the dream. Iam sure those players did not think we had hit a glass ceiling but felt with a few additions we could compete. Perhaps not for CL but to be established I. The top part of the league and in time even achieving something we could not envisage 6-7-10 years ago. Basically I'm in for his return and am a tad surprised that you who normally. IMO are a good judge feel this way

i don't expect KL to risk her families future for us but. I don't like the way it seems to be sold to us

whilst wealthy I don't think wealthy enough

If NC came back the pain of the last couple of months would be erased

That's a good point, but TV revenue could play a part as well. I'm sure clever accountancy would come into it. It was just something I was told by somebody I have had fairly decent info from in the past

Seems to add up the case where I was told that she wanted 200m , but somebody only wants to give 100m. She is to rake off 100 m of player sales etc and then the club is taken over.

top post CB

Oh ok thanks

is peach a reliable source? he seems to have a bit of a joke tag on here. Surely Spurs would not but Rodrigues with the injury!!! Seems a bit of devilment in that post

Be patient we have 6 weeks until the window closes

i must say i thought it was a rehash of his previous statement

I was wondering the same CB

lets wait and see, there is 6 weeks until the window closes. The club has a deadline,.............. how many can they sell in that 6 weeks

the alternative would be great BUT it is naive to think a team of acadamy players will cope with Pl football. As for putting them on the naughty chair, when their England /Croation/French national place is lost, or that they are not in the media spotlight their agents would soon be at them to try again as their value would be dropping. No player can afford to be out of the limelight too long. Sooner or later somebody has to bring them into line as the club will in the longterm will lose out

Duncan, Im not having a pop. I believe if NC had been left to run the club we would have far more stability now. Iam not saying all the players would have stayed but i do think that MP and some of the more important stars would have still been here. Do you think the same? I am not out to trip you up but genuinely am interested.

when i heard it was going to be a Rollover this week, i thought it was the National lottery not our Board

the other thing about the 'wait and see, the transfer window is 6 weeks away' comments,in the first month of the season we are potentially playing quite a few of our rivals which might be vital at the end of the season

basically the agent telss them theres an offer in and so they decide their future is not here. Reed and co then say Ok. Ive seen Audley Harrison put up better fights

sorry but we only want left footers

thank heavens 'we dont need to sell'
