  1. I was saying to a fan the squad has enough to get us out of this mess, but we need a manager who knows how to gel what we have.Boothroyd for me knows this league he has worked under financial restraints and also brrought youmg players through.He is my present number 1 choice of managers realistically available to us.
  2. Do you really think we performed worse in the first half than the 2nd?????
  3. Well I was on the Northam and looked up and could see he wasnt there but Wilde was, could you not see from where you were sat?
  4. Ump while emotions are high im not going to bite at your post. The fans were brilliant and behind the team, we went 1 down and there were a portion of fans who want Lowe out and started their songs, it went from bad to worse. i was on the northam and there were many who were as saddened, and it was the worst feeling i can recall myself.Fan fighting fan all over a bloody chairman who wasnt even there!!! He is only a figurehead in front of people who are too cowardly to show their faces but want the perks. Asd for the manager i have never backed him and have always said Id give him a chance to prove my doubts wrong but he is poor and should go. For the health of the club I would like RL gone (not for his cost cutting or trying to avert adminsitration), as the division is so bad. i still am bemused why none of the Knights in shining armour do not appear.
  5. Well you dont have a clue, RL wasnt even there, you may as well go outside and shout a the wind.You play sport, if you feel support around youy it gives you confidence.If you feel your own turn against you (whether you or your teammates) it understanderbly effects you.That is the way I see it.And dont give me the 'they are professionals'. they are human and with all the frailities of being so. Sing your heart outside the ground or after teh game, but i believe we hurt ourselves by dividing the fanbase. If RL does not change the manager I will be there as well.
  6. Thats fine, there were enough of you Im told, so do it outside the ground after the game,. I understand the frustrations and I would love to thrash out at something but it is futile unless you have a saviour lined up. RL apparently wasnt there today, he no doubt realised his presence if things went bad was not good.i think Wilde scarpered fairly quickly.
  7. Are you stupid or just impersonating ? Iam saying protest and sing the RL songs to your hearts contnet after the game.We were only 1 down when the atmosphere turned and the anti Lowe songs started.Do you really think that helps? I know we were not likely to do well with the fans singing as they had all game up to then, but when you start singing songs that divides the fanbase and also distracts the minds of the players on the pitch. By the way who is the saviour to take us over????? they all seem to be talking big and doing SFA. If mist of us had massive wealth we would have bought the club by now and sorted things, but we have lots of people on the sidelines saying they will do it and then disappear.
  8. That as well.why do you think I blame the fans, I believe the fans singing anti Lowe songs is detrimental to the performance.That is my opinion, and it divided the fans instead of focussing on the team.
  9. I have called for stabilty regasrding managers in the past but on this occasion Jan must go and RL if you have anything about you you will do your job and move him aside and appoint Boothroyd. I understand the cost cutting but will not accept abject stupity by keeping a manger who is totally tactically naive
  10. What a sad day.There werer fans waiting for the opportunity to start the anti Lowe songs and were at it when we were a goal down. Im not against the protests outside the ground after teh game, but during the game in a 6 pointer is suicide. As for punching stewards and your own fans its so depressing. I saw some longstanding fans loooking stunned and ! with tears running down her face, and then a young lad with his dad looking fearful. What a sad state our club and fans have got to.
  11. Please no, Bournemouth Saints choice would be good for me
  12. Wes the first line I have kept reminds me of when I and a few others warned about the Wilde bunch, there again was no doubt an 80% vote in favour of them.That quote was used time and again but what did it achieve?? LC has the opportunity to step into the breach, our share price has fallen and so he could mop up and then take us to the promised land, he could join with LM who could plough back in some of the fruits of his connection with the club, but no they sit back snipe and watch OUR club walk the tightrope. I want the whole lot gone as i dont see much use in any of them (the whole board of directors and hangers on) I can see the sense in the way RL is going to try and reduce costs and in this time in the history of the world it is bl###y correct to cut your cloth accordingly not spend spend spend your way out of the problem. IF we stay up I believe the worst of the medicine would have been administered and we may then move on up. if we go down administration is the only way this club will go. Bournemouth went down that route and being told what the administrators charged I cannot see why anyone in their right mind would wish for administration, and RL way of avoiding it seems common sense.I also know a furniture company who are under administration and from a company that could have survived if the debts had been dealt with quickly and prudently to what has happened when the administrators levied their charges has now meant a business that was est100 years ago has now effectivily been put down. We may still go into administration this way but I believe the banks will see what we are doing and may be more prone to support that than if we only did cosmetic cuts. I dont have faith in Jan an call on RL to move him on, that at present is my major beef with him.Tonight I may be very down if we dont win and will be more likley to question RL if he keeps Jan, but if jans signings show us an improvement i may eat my words
  13. It's all too high brow for me.I myself agree with 90%+ with what Nick G writes.
  14. Its OK I know MB understands taste and restraint...thanks by the way MB although i much prefer pictures of pretty ladies if I had the choice
  15. Thats Ok Mick we are all Saints fans and we all want the same thing.
  16. had the e-mail about the 8 year old Iranian boy who had his arm cut off by a car running over it in punishment for stealing.i had it through and the images were disturbing if true.
  17. Is that post correct, or am I missing something MrG ?
  18. I think you were another anti KD and we had words about that if i recall correctly.I think even you may concede I may have been a little more right about that or perhaps not
  19. Mick i think we did agree once and I immediately went and had 50 lashes for being so stupid
  20. well you must be really anti Alpine then because you really fit the bill as you put it
  21. i think SOG was spot on........ This site is full of opinions only, we can do little whatever we might say or do. I woulkdnt wish for Alpine to get banned (although sometimes......) but i also wouldn't wish for Sog to be either, i think it is a tad pathetic for fans to run off to the mods just because something has been said on here and names mentioned. If it is obvious sbuse yes but come on this thread was only an opinion from one side of the arguement.
  22. Good job nobody told Lineker that !!!!! Earnshaw IMO is not a team player and so I dont see him as a run till his boots are worn through.It takes all types and to be fair you dont half expect a lot. You want the worlds most all round striker in a bottom half CCC team. If DMG was that good at the moment he'd be at a top PL side.It will come but sadly he will have been sold before we see the real finished product.
  23. that reminds me of something eother Dave Jones or WGS said about 1 of our players... he covered every blade of grass because his first touch was so poor. Doyle and Earnshaw are what age? Earnshaw is not a good example for a footballer to be set to.
