  1. I dont see he's on the ropes at present. Look at it this way. Saturday the march was attended by less people. The message has been diluted by disagreements how it should be run.The media were not interested, a major mistake was made by sitting in a public highway as it inconvienienced people who may have sympathised but then will be upset. Some fans would have been uncomfortable by the Wotte out stuff. We won and the new manager installed on saturday anyway seems to have given the club new belief. Divide and conquer has always worked in the past and from saturday that has been the case. Until we get a leader of the fans who can embrace all to act it will always be Mickey Mouse.
  2. Read your post 'How about deliberately leaking their salaries to the Echo in some pathetic attempt to justify the persecution of senior players going on at SFC ? To me, that was a complete breach of trust and possibly even employment law.' Now tell us how I have twisted your post? You can't, and you have in your usual way tried as part of your 5th columnist campaign against the club to use anything as a weapon to hurt it. it is not me who is doing the twist., it is you who do more twists than you would see at a Rock and Roll convention.

  4. that is the point.I myself was very concerned that MC felt physically threatened and stated so.If that is truly the case that RL waves a fist under her chin, then that adds a major question mark of ever giving RL the benifit of the doubt. I would like to quantify what 'physically threatened' would entail. My understanding would be as above, if it was a raising of his voice or being disparaging then that is something different. The phrase makes any defence of the man immoral and so it needs to be clarified

  6. I think Jonah is making a point though.Duncan is judged by fans to be in the know and so if he is going to make a claim like he did that blackens the already tarnished reputation of RL to make a point sound even more sensationalist it should be pointed out as it is morally wrong.

  8. I had the same converstaion with my brother yesterday when he wondered the same.My commented that it has always been the same with Saints.When we beat Man u 6-3 or 3-1 or Liverpool 4-2 it was always put down as they werre bad on the day, when we lose it was because the other team are better not that we have an off day.That's peoples perception , we only win as the opponents have an off day, it's pathetic

  10. it was the physically threatened that was alarming. I would suggest that there was a bit of authors artistic licence used. But as Fc said its best to let it lie as FF, MC wont wish to make a big deal of it.I just think it shows we have to be very careful how we word some of these things said to us privately

  12. Come on show us the proof it was the club.You have made one hell of an accusation there. You have just jumped to a conclusion.there are many ways JE's salary could have been leaked. I dont expect you have an answer

  14. Well the nbanner should have read Wotte look behind me we are not all 16 year old kids, not Wotte out.

  16. Stand back and look at it from Wottes position.The first march there were definitely Wotte out chants and saturday the leading fans in the group had at least 2 placards against Wotte.He would rightly believe that that group were against him. Before you tell me he is too sensitive remember how the marchers got all precious when he dared to say about them. The fans in the ground were fantastic marchers and all.I went to the game in trepidation as i thought the anti lowe stuff would carry on in the ground, it didn't and so credit to those 'true' fans as well.

  18. .It is not rocket science to fill your sides with good players.You have to balance that with budgetting.Saga would have been sold had we had the chance, we couldnt and so he is playing as we pay his wages now anyway.
  19. There is a large amount of people who really are not going down to RL, but the major swathe of fans not going is mainly down to the fact that we are losing and not in the PL. None can tell me why when we played Man u with RL being chairman that there were 32000 people who turned up. Please do not tell me they were Man u fans, as when goals were scored the onlly fans celebrating were in the away section and a few in corporate. If we do well thew fans will retunrn to the uneasy aliance with RL. If he left i doubt it would add more than 1000 to the gate and after yesterday the attendance will rise a tad anyway. Im happy standing with the 13000 hardcore fans who all got involved in our vid=ctory at SMS yesterday

    Well he is wrong, if my info is correct.Wotte was known as Mr Chocolate before the meeting he had when he first took over when the staff each had their say, things have improved.The players are united and up for it. I am giving a pal a call later today and will be back on here tomorrow and let you know what i have been told.
  21. but they will only need another 8 points to beat our 15
  22. The front marchers having anti Wotte banners just shows how SOME dont rerally know what they are protesting about.Whose idea was it to block the road??? That will gain the fans no sympathy from the general public who were inconvienienced by it. The media gave it no column iches it seems. A small run of decent results will see the marches go back into a box.Another couple of losses and the marches will grow IMO
  23. Jan played 1 up front, I suggest had Saga played just 1 up front in all hte games he played he would not have scored as many as he has recently. Lets just be pleased he's there and that we still have 13 games for him to make us safe.
  24. DMG has spent the season as a 1 up front.Under the new man Saga has been playing as a 2 up front.That is why we are more effective, DMG was very good yesterday and again proved he is better than a lot give him credit for. Did you go and watch the game?
  25. I will put my hand up and admit I was wrong (so far) he has been great but of course he has played up front as part of a pair.A front 2 is important so we can defend from the front.
