  1. Excellent player for Saints but probably past his best........he is 3rd or 4th choice at FP which I think says it all!
  2. Anyone at home except Chelsea or Man City
  3. Even Reading wouldn't be daft enough to give Burley the job!
  4. When was the last time he even made the bench?......get rid of him asap and use his over inflated wages to pay a couple of grafters who WANT to play for the club.........trouble is nobody wants him....... literally!!
  5. A draw is a good result from a trip to Millwall..........too many are expecting too much from the team........there is optimism about Saints but that needs to be tinged with a dose of reality with regards to where we were just 5 months ago. The dream of the play offs is still alive, but a top half finish to this season should, in my view, be seen as a success.
  6. Of those mentioned I would imagine Thomas and Saganowski's wages are greater than the rest put together. Saganowski has done nothing but sit and take the money........the fact that Poland failed to reached the World Cup finals has just encouraged him to sit on his backside and do nothing but take easy money.........Thomas at least performs competently when called upon .......I guess Saganowski has a contract and thus can do as he wishes, but frankly I think we will be stuck with him, mainly because everyone else knows he is overpaid and likely to underperform whoever signs him and wherever that may be.
  7. Ummmmmmm???????...........and join that smallest book of competent Scottish goalkeepers?..................I think not.......best just save the fare!
  8. Scary that we have "supporters" who turn a manager from a hero to villain in 90 minutes......everyone has an off day..........this was one!.........reality check needed!
  9. Complacency is probably the major factor today.........and it was bound to come after the recent run.........Saints are still a good side but had an off day at the office today.......they will bounce back against Norwich.....

    A symptom of the malaise that haunted the club in the last 2 seasons.......he is best "shipped out" in my view, though as I say, rarely has a player produced such polarised views.......but since he has gone on his "tour" of various clubs, none have valued him enough to give him the "run " in the team that so many suggest he deserved.......will be interesting to see if he can score "shedloads" for Reading!
  11. He has moved on......wish him well and just unfortunate that he was at SMS at a time of total disarray.........

    Hopefully he was looking at Rasiak and thinking "thank goodness we shipped him out!"..........I see he is as mobile and prolific at Reading as he was at SMS, and a glance at the Reading forums indicate the same comments too..........!!
  13. Time for him to ship out......simple as that.........stop taking the money for nothing and go earn his wages elsewhere, though I fear any contract offered would be a fraction of what he presently on........the love affair ( if there ever was one) is over.
  14. Try Celtic v Rangers.........most people who know will agree there is nothing in England to match it........albeit pretty nasty stuff!
  15. UK government............soft on crime!
  16. Tough game against a side thats doing well........ still early days......look out for massive over reactions!
  17. Whatever happens, this forum will have its fair share of negative whingers...... it has been a very short period of time since Saints were a few days away from total meltdown.......fans talking about where else they will watch football...Eastleigh, Totton etc...........change takes time in any business and football is no different.......IMHO the signs are all positive, the overpaid "passengers" have moved on and there seems the basis of a good balanced side...........it may be yet another draw against Bristol because the project is in its infancy, and if its one point then I would not be negative.........but will wait for the usual bilge from those that expect 3 points from every game...get real!
  18. Its a vital victory wherever the goals come from...........it breeds confidence and shows AP has got the material to get the club moving in the right direction ........there will always be the moaners!!
  19. Saints 1-1 Yeovil......they will play above themselves at SMS.......big crowd, big ground........Saints still not there yet in development....... a draw is most likely
  20. Excellent result......... its a slow process but frankly 90% plus fans would have taken a draw at Charlton when the fixture list came out.......so its a good sign that things are moving in the right direction..........hopefully get a win before the end of September........and off the bottom by January
  21. Its definitely going to be a marathon and not a sprint.........in credit by mid November ........off the bottom by January should be the target in my view..... realistic in my view, but no doubt there will be many screaming for a management change every single week before then unless 3 points are on the board every Saturday..........so they just have to tolerated whilst the realists watch the slow turnaround
  22. Totally agree with the title.......some reality in the "dreamers" on this site expecting instant success is well overdue............too many expecting overnight results........came close to a victory yesterday and didn't play that well!..........things will get better but many should give their stress levels a break and just accept that its a slow process.....
  23. It was pretty poor stuff today........didn't really give their keeper much to do.......however it was another clean sheet and thats a positive........these things do take time and I'm sure things will improve............just more patience required........I feel one victory will spur things forward............I said Saints would still be bottom and just out of "negative" points by mid November and I do believe that, but I also believe that things will pick up........
  24. Totally agree with all of that.........there are so many "dreamers" that think the play offs are possible and that Saints have some sort of divine right to stroll this league......I say take one game at a time, which I'm sure is what AP is doing and build some confidence and grit into the side..........it may not happen this month or next month, but I believe it will slowly start to work and patience is needed!
