Kevin Davies 33 years old the third coming HCDAJFU no doubt about it!

I dunno why they suddenly decided to call it the Pink. It was always just the Football Echo in my day until some smart arse at the Echo jumped on the northern bandwagon.

I'd go along with this too. No way do I think AP to be "inept" to use the word in the OP but there are times when he is too defensive and also times when he over complicates. However I do like the way he talks straight and interviews candidly - so refreshing after Burley the mumbler.

Why after he was so succesful playing out wide on the right has AP moved Puncheon into the middle where it appears he is ineffective. I was talking to a Charlton fan this morning and he said it was those sort of idiosyncratic tactical decisions that in the end alienated the fanbase against him.

Thanks Hypo - appreciate the comment.

Ta!!!

Appreciate your comments. I know that politically we maybe apart but that makes your post quite heart warming and I am grateful for it. Indded I have taken out a grievance v BA re this data protection so probably best I say nothing more - but again thanks

All I can say is if you and the people in your office believe anything that you read in the Daily Mail and then make a judgement on someone, then that says more about you than anything else. But hey, don't worry about it - if you think I am a tosser because of what you read in the Mail so be it. I will meet you anytime for a beer and maybe you can then make your mind up having met me?

Its not pink - more faded red - a bit like me actually!

Why anyone believes anything that is written in this paper is beyond me. Having twice had reporters banging on my front door in recent weeks and seeing a pack of lies written and published about me on Monday I can vouch for this newspapers absolute dis regard for the truth and penchance for nasty mischief making. Anyone who buys this very unpleasant rag should be ashamed. Is there really any point in calling Cortese a buffoon? Love to see Cortese take on the Mail and ban it from SMS.

Andy - next time I am due to miss a game will give you a shout

But you trust their commentry

If that's true he might as well leave after Sunday week, so we can bed in someone else?

A fair appraisal. We could have won if one of those 1st H chances went in but 2nd H Swindon were by far the superior team and we looked totally clueless. I think Pardew got found out tonight!

Andy - were you there? You must be if you say you thought Swindon played very well unless you were basing your opinion on radio commentary? Surely not.

Deffo the worst ref performance in living memory. I simply couldn't believe some of his decisions.

Jonathan Fulthorpe anyone?

Like I say Nick, I have heard enough "rumours" from inside St Marys to give me a little insight into his mind and he is not overtly happy. I honestly think were it not for the JPT then he would be considering swinging the axe before the season's end and AP is well aware of that. NC has nothing like the patience the fans would like him to have, imo. As for me - there is lots I like about AP, he has common sense and speaks very well but tactically, especially away from home he sometimes appears lacking nous. Mind you if Lallana put away just half the chances he has missed this season we would not be having this debate.

Big assumption imo.

YOU might not know but please do not assume to know what everyone else on here "knows" ..............

Was the purchase of Southampton FC by ML purely a financial investment. Has that changed ie is there a developing emotional investment?

The silence is deafening

His contract only goes up to the summer

Apologies - I was going by something the Echo reported. Perhaps they were referring to home games. George who btw?
