Most fouled player in the league last year I think?

Doesn't matter. He affected the defenders ability to play the ball. Also doesn't matter it came off a Villa player either as has been peddled on here, he was offside from the moment Ings flicked it on. And not just offside either, half his body was clearly offside so any rewriting of the rules to allow people lean offside would be utterly nuts.

Get rid of that Glen fella or tell him to read up on the offside rule before next weeks pod. Utterly clueless on a weekly basis and seems to have made a niche for himself by being wrong and moaning about things he's wrong about. Get Lucy back on. "One of these arm pit offsides again".

Yes, I only cared for the Arsenal game personally as I'd watched the Saints stuff previously. As it happened, I hadn't finished my cup of tea so carried on watching Saints. And like I said, who cares about who comes first, impartiality, incidents and all that bollocks, it's a highlights show, just watch it so you've seen everything that happened for the weekend. Everything else including running order, pundits, montages and who said what...it's meaningless.

Because it was probably the least viewed game of the day and probably the one most people tuned in for and again...who actually gives a fuck about being first on MOTD. You all watched the game previously and the game you likely didn't watch was on first. Perfect.

People moaning about MOTD2 need to get a grip. I thought the opening montage was a beautiful troll, all this talk about how great they are followed by a convincing defeat, lovely stuff. Could have amended it but I think they thought "Fuck it, these fans have made tits of themselves, let's show it". Also they are top of the league, they are the story of the season so far and whilst it was clear to anyone with any football nous they'd regress at some point, the only team with a 100% record has to be addressed so the focus would always be on them. Two ex Everton pundits? So what? Both are on there regularly anyway so who cares. They made a point of praising us first. Like I said, if you're sat watching that show and are outraged then you need to get a grip. Just enjoy the fact we've upset the apple cart a bit and enjoy that everyone's spent the first few weeks wanking over Everton and the comedown will be enjoyable.

So whens the final date we should expect a refund for this seasons games?

Controversial opinion...it's perfectly reasonable.

Any frenchman at Nice who have previously played under Bruce?

I've said it before and I'll say it again, it's a shit gig. Not least because there's so many games on TV that any decent pundit can get a gig at an actual game rather than sitting in a studio all afternoon watching one of them on a small screen. Further to this, the utter meltdown of the racists and sexists in this country when the guys got the boot and everyone assumed Alex Scott would be hired probably made anyone who isn't desperate for a job think "nah you're alright". Hence Sky have had to resort to the piss poor quality they have.

The same people being OK with Vokins as back up are probably the same people who have written off Smallbone as a back up as soon as he plays.

Would people be satisfied with 1 loan and an Ings new contract out of interest?

Makes the RLC name drop earlier in this thread a lot more plausible.

Don't think he's been that bad really. Horribly exposed. But I'd bring back Gunn if we're going to play that high.

RLC head already in Southampton on the basis of that performance.

Yes. That's my point. He's 23. He needs to leave.

It's Sims who needs to learn from Harrison Reed. Both decent enough, neither good enough to start for us, both need permanent moves away to get settled and a career going. Judging Sims on just his games for us and not his under whelming performances on loan isn't wise for us or him. He'll be working on move away by the end of the window.

Re read what I wrote pal.

So no black woman then. Lord duckhunter will be chuffed. Looks like as I suggested earlier the gig was below anyone decent.

Yes, Choudhury.

Jesus, you're obsessed. You've got issues about women and people who aren't white. Anyway, you've stated throughout this thread women lack the credibility to speak with authority about PL football because they've not played at that level. 2 points...firstly the best show of this format is the BT European Goals Show and not one of those pundits has played at any professional level yet their insight and knowledge is beyond any PL coverage we have. Secondly, if we do succumb to the idea of women like Scott not being able to speak with authority about the mens premier league because they haven't played at their level, then to be clear your opinion on either PL football or who TV stations should pick to head their TV shows is null and void as well. Oh and thirdly Alex Scott can do miles better than Soccer Saturday. It's not a particularly great gig anyway IMO.

Touché. Although people who are more in the know and work in our recruitment team would tell you it was a deal all but wrapped up long before this summer and we waited due to a mixture of funds and felt the timing wasn't right. Hence why it so quickly done when the window was open (Covid complications aside). Same article also names 3 other players, two of which didn't happen, one did but that was described as unlikely in this article. More bullshit than truth in this article.

Our deals are reported in the media late on in negotiations. Not early on, not before we've made offers and enquiries. We're not in the business of letting shit fester in the media whilst we wait around deciding when to make offers. If it's reported as "Saints have interest" it's likely to be bullshit. If we have interest, we'll get into negotiations. If it's reported as fee agreed or bid made by credible sources close to the player or club then it's potentially credible, if it's random sites reporting interest in McKennie and Ntcham when no offers are being made or reported and the closest sources to our club have quite clearly told people we're either not interested or we're getting rid of people first who only left yesterday then it's bullshit.

Again, just like McKennie, we do not do our business in the media. If it's linked in different sources, every day, every week then it's unlikely to be true. Our interest becomes public through our sources at a time we are comfortable with. Or potentially at the players end towards the end of the deal but clubs and players we are looking to do business with are told quite quickly to keep it quiet. If it becomes public knowledge we won't entertain it and will either pull out or have already pulled out. If various random internet click bait sources are reporting interest it's likely to be either just clickbait or agents trying to use us to drum up interest. McKennie and Ntcham are not players that ever smacked of credible interest.

Count again. 5 of the first 8 before my post make comments towards it.
