The real reason that we sacrificed the cups...
OldNick replied to Unbelievable Jeff's topic in The Saints
it was quite a coincidence that when he was being asked to prove any of it ,that lo and behold Uj all of a sudden posted the same thing! -

if 2 of our first 11 had put their fairly simple chances away the team put out would not be an issue.had Fonte played with his bad scarring and it had been made worse and we lost him for weeks how would we view that? it is easy to criticise but MP is a winner and i doubt he did anything to intentionally cost us the game -

yep you missed the bit where Trousers and myself said for you to post the FB page with the Southampton employee telling you about the contract, or havent you time to have made one yet? Afterall he gave you permission to go public and so would not worry about you posting it up. You can of course blot out the name -

it is a Southampton employee, could be a Council worker of course -

to think he has a few who rally around him when the going gets tough. They might start thinking twice about it when the penny drops -

if that rumour makes MP's job harder and turns some of the fans against him it COULD mean he would be more likely to leave, are you happy about that? His integrity is being questioned, as if we believe he was happy to throw the game to get a big bonus iam sure he would not be happy -

no not at all, but if you have employees who show that lack of loyalty or class do you really want them at our club creating negativity? -
All the away fans were/are superb, but I just dont think it was down to the team selection or MP. If you analise it we lost to yet another wonder strike and players who you would normally expect to score missed their easy chances. Yes if Jrod etc played from the start we may have won, but as youknow they may have been caught in the same malaise as the rest. Some weeks ago there was an article re our preparation for away games eg taking mattresses and chefs etc, can anyone tell me whether that has now changed?

A select group lol, a Southampton employee tealady, or Chairman? One minute not for the public and then with permission on a major Saints website. Bring back NC none of this happened under his stewardship. The minute he left one of the clubs brown nosers was straight on the phone to FB. I dislike disloyalty and would be happy for such people to be removed from their posts. Your FB friend (if there was such a person) has put out unsubstantiated rumours that help to destabilize and perhaps hurt the club. I know your agenda is anti MP and you will do your best to help get MP to leave, thankfully you have become a bit of a joke figure on here and the majority are now taking your stuff as nonsense. I know you have a few who rally around you as a kind of thicket, but Im sure in time they will also feel stupid being seen as one of your group. IMO the jury is out if you are a Skate, as i see no other reason for trying to cause such concern -
so you're the Jonah:lol:

The other thing is that we had a team with a lot of british players who know what the FA cup means. That should be enough to have got the right result,whoever MP picked -
Lol, well put

A bit sexist, you are not showing your best side. -

I think you should not be so sensitive about your book, the majority think it is great including myself. Perhaps being the clubs historian in the past you were given privilages that may not be there anymore, therefore you feel a sense of loss that the majority of fans do not feel. I have gone along to watch Saints for decades and never been invited for any event (without paying) or given access to areas that you doubt have. it is naive to think that the club has ever been run for anything less than profit and an old boys club until we had the Liebherrs who have run the business correctly. I respect the fact that Marcus chose NC to do the work and whilst you have info that things were not 100% i suspect there was a tremendous bond between the 2 and Ml might not have wished for NC to be replaced. Time will tell whether that decision (getting rid of NC)was a major mistake, i worry that Kl may not be as shrewd as Nc especially when dealing with transfers out. her instant turning by appeasing the fans re some small issues show she may not be too hard nosed -
I woas not happy to go out, but have you seen the pictures of Fontes injury?? no wonder he did not play

Duncan you keep going on about making the club £50k on book sales, that is chicken feed compared to the clubs finances, If you stood back and considered you might understand why NC took a stand as as soon as anything goes against your opinion/wishes you do get pretty tetchy. i suspect you will give me a blast but I dont think that your OP is fair and your post to Viking does you any favours. Just my view of course. -

Lol, it is amazing a week ago KL and co could do no wrong in FF eyes, they took his book in to the shop, dropped the parking fees and let FB back into the ground. 'We had got our club back', now in a fit of peek due to us going out of the FA cup they have become the devil. -
i could not sleep that night it was traumatic for me.
-
The away support was fantastic, but had that been the semi final there would be 50k wanting to go, so did the club think the fans are not as committed to the cup as they are the league???
-
had we won would we have been the same number in the draw? I dont know how they give the teams the numbers
-
i can see all the private messages GS has sent out asking for support, lol

A cup win on your CV or a 500 k bonus what would be worth more? Without a doubt a cup win, in financial terms and alos the kudos of clubs wanting him to get him on board. -

i think you will find has done more than his fair share of travelling to games over the years. He was going to away games when it was not the cushy number it is now. I must admit it must be dangerous behind your keyboard on a saturday
