OldNick Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Now that the 'shame' of relegation is gone and all the politics has died, Im quite enjoying the old feeling of being quietly confident before most games. Yes it is the third tier and we are a 'big club' but the football is real old style stuff. End to end, lots of tackling, goals and not bad entertainment with a team who seem to want to win. Yes there are lots of misplaced passes and some players are not 'world beaters' but it is fun. I was talking to a regular Arsenal fan and he is now getting tired of the PL. His seat costs him £100 a game, he likes the clinical precision of the passing and foreign stars but now feels it is wearing thin.All those 100k a week footballers bleeding the fans dry, i question whether I will pay double to watch us in the top division.

saints_is_the_south Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Agreed. I'd be quite happy with just winning League 1 each year but not actually moving up divisions. Sure I'd love to see us back in the Prem but I've enojyed this season a lot so far. We go into every game with a very good chance of winning, the football is entertaining & we don't have a team full of mercenaries ripping the fans off. I'm happy with things being that way. Added to that are the away games which so far have been excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merrimd Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 I was thinking exactly the same today. Would I rather have what we have now, or swap it for say Wigan or Bolton or even that lot down the road. Had a discussion with a younf pompey fan at the weekend. He was tryin to tell me how great it was in the premiership, watching all those world class players. I pointed out that whilst the opposition players may be world class, where was the enjoyment in watching them tear you apart week in week out. I guess the problem is, if we keep what we have, we will eventually get to the premiership, then it will all get spoilt again. Loving it at the moment though.

I feel the same. I've already done virtually all of the top flight grounds from when we were there before, and I certainly wouldn't pay the amounts charged now. Mates who follow teams such as spurs / fulham and this year paid £50 to go to man utd (spurs carling cup), £47 to go to Chelsea and West Ham. Crazy prices and I can't believe away numbers haven't reduced more up there. It is a boring league with a number of away games almost certain defeats. Burnley away for Fulham fans at the weekend was £32, I'm sure when we went there last season it was only £20! I'd rather be in this league winning regularly paying £18 a ticket.

mancsaint Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Have to agree with all comments regarding not heading for the EPL. A league of overpaid prima donnas where the "top four-five" teams only think it's their God given right to get into Europe and have budgets that make that essential, look at the panic at Liverpool at the moment. I want to be in a competition where there is some chance of each team winning, not where 15 teams are cannon fodder for 5 teams. Long live the Championship and below.

saintsmike25 Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Meh it's fair to say it's nice to see Southampton winning this season. But still worried we're not getting more people into the ground I think some of the ticket prices should be lower so we can really get back to the days of 25k + a game, it will be worth it for next season. People are just stating they're enjoying watching Southampton again we all want to get promoted! it goes without saying Delldays.. no need to turn this into an arguement.

Colinjb Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 (edited) Thats the key point though isn't it? And are you telling me the likes of Birmingham, Reading, Bolton, Middlesborough and Sunderland have not competed well either in the recent past or right now? Teams like us can get to the Premiership and make an impact, you just have to be well run to do so, at the moment, we are! I am loving it right now, believe me I am, but I still long for the days when we beat the champions at home, thrashed our local rivals to go 4th at Xmas, received masses of respect from people throughout the country and indeed, the world for how we took on the big guns and often kept them honest. If you don't aim high, there is no point in aiming at all. Edited 18 December, 2009 by Colinjb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did we last have anything near that before? If we were just winning matches but didn't have the infrastructure running the club that we have now, it would be a surprise. It is precisely because we have that infrastructure that we are winning matches and have a good foundation to build on and that is why I prefer this season to the past recent ones, rather than the actual results and league position per se.

niceandfriendly Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 I think people are missing the point, Essruu and TDD mainly, can't say I'm surprised. I think what people are trying to say is that we're having a lot of fun in League One and we should enjoy it whilst it lasts. Going into games expecting to win is a nice feeling to have, and it won't last if we get promoted to the Championship and then eventually the Prem. Nobody is saying we don't want Pardew to succeed, ffs, they're just saying League One is likely to be much more fun than the dull Premier League.

And I would refuse to pay the stupid ticket prices that most top flight clubs charge for away fans. so i would simply still go for the day out on the beer with the lads, but stay in the pub for the game and watch sky sports news rather than hand over £50 to watch us lose at Chelsea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merrimd Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 is that a direct choice why you are at it.. how about lose at home to brighton or beat man u.. The choice is not ours to make is it. If you ask me which do I prefer to do - watch us win or watch us lose, I will go with the win option all day long irrespective of opponent. Considering we are winning considerably more this season than in any season in the premiership I would therefore be happier now, in this division, playing Tranmere.

Then it would be Citeh, Villa and Spuds how would be the new top dogs. The only way to make it more competitive is to share the wealth more evenly. Although Citeh would still get more to spend because of the owner's input it would be a closer league and the winners would be seen to be better footballing wise than just seen as buying the championship.

Colinjb Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Delldays, Merrimd, you are obviously at polar opposite opinion here. It's daft to accuse someone of disliking winning, but equally removing the want to compete at as high a level as possible is also daft. We are winning at the moment because we have an ambitious board who want to get to the higher levels, that also attracts the players who want to better themselves and leaves us in a far stronger position. The two are intrinsically linked, why can't we just enjoy as we are without *****ing about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MusicMan Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 The thing is it may be nice to win week in and week out but why do you think everyone is looking forward to Leeds so much. It’s to test us and see how good we really are. Although it’s nice to win against the lower teams it’s far nicer to win against the top teams. Also it good to look forward to the transfer window to see who the next star is we have signed. If we stayed in this league and kept winning there would be no point signing more players.

WHEN we get promoted this season, I am sure that, with ML's help, we will be competitive next year. And I will love that as well. For me, its not about the division we are in. its about the results we are achieving. I will feel the same as I do now if we were to emulate this next season in the championship, and then again the following season in the premiership.

SOTONS EAST SIDE Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 I think we have to get to the Prem, because of the revenue stream it provides.But as has been said on here its really the preserve of the top 4-5 clubs (which Sky wants) so every other team in there are just for entertainment value. The EPL is killing football slowly with over inflated wages and ticket prices, which is taking the game away from common people to the rich(cant have the working class enjoying themselves now can we).Lower league clubs in they're quest to get/stay in the premiership, then expose themselves to unstainable debts which are putting clubs in admin.

Football to me now is a pastime, a place to be entertained, the type of football I am watching is fine and more pleasurable than I recall many of the games we had in the PL due to fear of losing.Ie when the likes of Bolton Boro Blackburn etc came along determined to get a draw or nick a win, and at no time trying to entertain.

Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Now that the 'shame' of relegation is gone and all the politics has died, Im quite enjoying the old feeling of being quietly confident before most games. Yes it is the third tier and we are a 'big club' but the football is real old style stuff. End to end, lots of tackling, goals and not bad entertainment with a team who seem to want to win. Yes there are lots of misplaced passes and some players are not 'world beaters' but it is fun. I was talking to a regular Arsenal fan and he is now getting tired of the PL. His seat costs him £100 a game, he likes the clinical precision of the passing and foreign stars but now feels it is wearing thin.All those 100k a week footballers bleeding the fans dry, i question whether I will pay double to watch us in the top division. I have a couple of friends who feel the same. One is an Arsenal fan, the other a Spurs fan, and they have decided to start going to St Marys. They now always look for the Saints score first. It must be quite sad for them to do this. Personally, I hate the Premier League and everything it is about now. I actually hope that the big teams ****** off into a European Super League, and leave the rest of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
