Remember when you were last happy as a Saints fan
Patrick Bateman replied to Lard's topic in The Saints
This. My favourite Saints team ever, even more so than Ball's and Strachan's. -
The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
Patrick Bateman replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
Easter Sunday, not Palm Sunday, is the most important date in the Christian calendar as it celebrates the resurrection, eternal life and the victory over sin. So I would expect it to be mentioned then. -
All 3 look great and much better than what we'll probably get dished up. And to echo Alehouse, dark navy blue shorts please with the home kit.

Our fans: loyal and positive, or noddy and soft?
Patrick Bateman replied to Midfield_General's topic in The Saints
I do actually have an issue with this, one of those players was Jamie Vardy and whilst we all can't stand him, he's now a Leicester legend and he's been LOYAL to them when he could've moved. Not his fault he's still picked and probably not the player he once was in the top flight - although he's still managed 7 goals in that dreadful team and that's more than our strikers combined I think? So how do you differentiate that chant between players, you can't. -

This is it for me - the club has been completely mismanaged by those responsible for hiring, training, fitness, everything. Whilst I wouldn't have clapped the players personally, I don't think they can really be blamed. Lack of fitness and not being good enough for the Premier League is not really their fault. Juric as I said on another thread I can't really blame either, he had a horrible job to do and yes, he made some weird decisions, but I agree, my anger is direction 100% towards non-playing staff. Hopefully more changes will happen, ESPECIALLY in the player and manager recruitment and fitness areas. -
Hardly surprising, but I wish Juric all the best. He took on a very difficult job, with unfit players, the wrong players, players isolated from the team and a hiding to nothing. He was treated to yet another clusterfk of a transfer window in January. Yes some of his decisions have been bizarre, but I think he at least showed some balls. Good luck to him and hopefully now onwards and upwards again for Saints with the right manager being given access to the right players, get them fit and firing.

Interesting. I mean yes, he is rude and obnoxious and a complete prick, especially the way he tries to talk down to her, BUT, BBC news people do interrupt, they are irritating. I can't remember the last time I watched a BBC news interview and didn't say "For gods sake, stop interrupting and let them speak"!

I'm still baffled by the thread title. How can anyone appreciate that prat?

Best club in Southampton was The Wall - behind the Walls. Small, underrated.

That's depressing

I would rather we did a "pissed up fans 11" ... if you get turned away at the turnstile for being drunk, you're on the pitch.

Palace are a great example along with Bournemouth and Forest of; 1. Considerably better recruitment, top class (leagues above Saints in terms of recruitment) 2. Better management, well drilled, know what they are doing, loads of energy (leagues above Saints) 3. Fitness! Our players still look slow and unfit, especially compared to these 3 teams. Sad really.

Who?? What the hell is going on with our club when the fanbase (well, maybe just me) doesn't know who the players are????
