Now that was funny Lord Hawpine

SMS I believe you are correct not so sure about Staplewood.All the money we have paid off our mortgage will be lost and then be renting the stadium back at probably the same rate as we are paying now in mortgage repayments

Just passing on the message.As it seems to annoy Ill keep any info to myself in future

Not my dressing room but that was the message.Anyway you can relax and have a nice sunda so you can wallow in our defeat, Lord Hawpine calling from Austria

It didn't happen to them during 'the worst recession in 100 years' RL should step aside and appoint someone as a talisman to try and unite the fanbase.An outsider who has not been tarnished by any of the past groups.

Robbie i dont get how you believe that a cahnge of chairman will change the results on the pitch.You and others tell me the fans dont make a difference to performance and so getting rid of a chairman will not effect that if you and others are right in that. The players are behind the idea of the way we are playing and so they have it in their hands to sort our destiny.I can only report back in good faith what Iam getting.I hope people like UM will support me in that I was very sceptical about jan and Wotte's appointment.Since his appointment I have had little reports back from the club that the morale is good and the players are very much up for what he is doing.They like us, may have been not sure of him but he has changed a few things that has given the side something to work from. I would have preferred to have a Davies or Boothroyd but i have to accept who has been chosen and live with it.That is life, many of the players over the years I have not rated but understand that it is not my job at risk relying on the players. Tonight my attiutde may have swayed back to very unhappy but I want to believe and so that is my frame of mind.If you say we are going to lose everygame then supporting Saints you are going to be right more than wrong and can come on here and brag about it, I prefer to stay positive and can see that we are still in there with a chance. Dont forget we had a lot who said we'd be relegated by Xmas, well we aren't yet.

That is fair. Not all were ready but they have been brought out of the fire and will come back stronger.

Good I will welcome your return.Although I still hope it will be a year or so as i want us to stay up and ominously if we stay up RL will still be here

That is fair BUT the other teams around us have to do the same or very nearly.I dont think we wre far from being a good side, it was just some of the poor tactical decisions and substitutions that cost us dear.At one stage it looked that we were going to be 7 points clear of the relegation places. It means SFA of course but I sent a message into the camp asking what was the feeling and were they up for it and I have in the last few got a reply that they were.

Objecting not posting to add to the debate.Even H'ierTH

To be fair you rightly pointed out to me that DMG was 21 when i thought he was 19. most of the young players are in their 20's now and so should be ready to step up.i know I would be

Um if you dont understand what staying out of a thread is then you are not as bright as I had you down for.I made posts that were not to debate the thoughtless original thread but to offer my objections. Your smarm is not what is called for when I rightfully IMO made objections to the use of 50 redundancies to make a point either way.

LTC but the fans demand to hear the managers thoughts.Under Gb we were complaining he didnt speak. I think Wotte is changing things and there will be an improvement but he's only had 3 games.I dont care what others think about him with Jan. He is right we were talked about as one of the best footballing sides in the CCC. Ok it hasnt gained points but a slight change may make a difference. It hurts to see the fans give up so easily, where's the fight.I understand we have been kicked for a few years now, but the fans showed their fight last season towards the end and we need it again.The support at games has been brilliant, perhaps this site is not a fair reflection on our fanbase as a whole. We do have our very own 5th columnist whipping up the depression that doesnt help. Lord Hawpine calling from one of the Germanic states.

He cant win with fans. It would be better if he gave up like the fans on here.Down already,we are rubbish and all the other defeatist tripe.If this was 1940 this would be the French army forum

Have all your other 5 posts been as positve?

Thats true but again to be fair we haven't this season.That is what i was pointing out LC faced relegation in 1 season and if the Echo was being used as a tool to beat the club that should be pointed out as they used the term 'face relegation'

Wade if we go down and the chairman is gone would you contemplate coming back? Or is it down to the division we are playing as well.It is not a trick question

Calvin how can you think that.This time last season we were about 7 points clear of relegation and other teams caught us.IF we could muster a couple of back to back wins then things will look different again.Wotte has been instilling into the players minds 'back to back, back to back' so they get it into their heads a positive.I expect we will get the posts saying the players think they have to stand back to back. There are 15? games left, we have many points to play for and a run will put us back into the scrap to go up the table.If at 5 tonight we are 7 points adrift and then next saturday 9 points adrift then i might change my mind of course.

I suspect that you are jumping on a very false rumour. If they put the prices up it will reduce the s/t sales by at least 10%, so a false economy that RL will know is suicide. I expect theyu will not do early bird. It will be put over as 'to be fair we dont dont know what league we are in' It will give the club 2 options keep the prices the same if we stay up, or cut them if we go down.Then I suspect the early bird price of last season will be used if we are relegated.IMHO

I would have thought that HR will be getting called in again aswell.I wonder now that Storrie and HR's relationship has faltered recently if cracks will appear in their stories.Here's hoping. Storrie telling stories sounds good to me

I think it is a family club as you do keep it in the family there. Imtold that the Valentine cards from father to daughter has been selling like hotcakes at Clintons in Southsea

Beat me to it Ponty.

That is a bit like saying we have lost were only in the PL one season.It is turning the facts to support an arguement.Surely it is 2 twice in 5/10/13 I dont know how many years he was there.It could be said that LC faced relegation once in 1 season.That would be unfair, although a fact.

If they knew that their lives had been looked upon so lightly by a load of internet geeks, then they may well be.Forget not some of those would be fellow Saints fans.

i have stayed out of this thread because it is bordering on the distasteful.Alpine you have shown yourself up to be a pathetic human being who is peddling in the misery of people to try and make a lame point. I hope the day doesn't arrive when you are made redundant.If it does do not complain that a thread is put up on here glorying in the fact. Football is a game FFS, 22 men kicking a bag of wind, (not you). Those 50 people should be left out of your petty and pathetic and SFC campaign How about starting a thread up taking the p### about Fords making redundancies Im sure you can wriggle RL into it somehow.
