I think we will lose, as we are rubbish.

Actually, if anything we need media coverage on Lowe's astonishing arrogance and will not get it without something like this (and perhaps not even with it) as we have become such a tinpot club now that no-one cares. The best we can hope is that someone like Martin Samuel picks up how far the club has fallen, what a plonker RL is, and how we could ever recover without the obvious sugar Daddy. Could always employ a good manager, I suppose...

Did Lowe read out the last line of that letter? ('luv and kisses, Sir Clive')

And quite a big head

Is it any wonder the aspirations of our club are at such a level with names like Lowe and Crouch associated with it? Not surprising Wilde didn't fit in with his name. Someone get Captain Sensible in.

Fight! Fight! Fight!

I can't quite believe nothing's happened yet. Bit like how I felt when we lingered for AGES before getting rid of Wigggly worm. Still, I wouldn't put it past Lowe to be holding off sacking Jan to save money through not giving the new guy long enough to consider getting in anyone to replace the inevitable January sales. Cotterill would be okay. At least he'd be able to realise that we need more than twinkly toed little boys to stay up in this division.

1-1. McGoldrick misses chance after chance, crowd gets on team's back, Davis makes another ****-up like the second Burnley goal (hello NickH).

all of which assumes forest will lose, which I'm not at all sure will be the case.

10-1 if anyone's interested. mind you, they are 8th...

I think they are in real trouble - manager a bit green, player wage bill 80% of turnover, crap ground and little chance of planning on a new one, and club for sale. That equals a drop down to scary positions in my book. might put some money on...

transl: we are keeping our old kit because we can't afford to have it redesigned.

I knew we'd be raped by Palace because they're that sort of team and had money on Shefki Coochi Coo to score first and them to win. But I feel oddly like we'll win tomorrow, as we seem to do well away and against teams who are 'expected' to win. That said, I think Akinbyi will also score, as he weighs over 10stone. All of our lot will just fall over when he nudges them, and Davis will lie down again when he's through on goal or just not come for anything beyond his goalline. Hello NickH.

Post of the year!

No Jan, you've got it all wrong. Johann Cruyff actually scored some goals as well. Still, good that he's joined as Wotte's - I mean Jan's - assistant. God we were crap last night.

I prefer winning football matches.

I think we'll lose this one. We're all a bit blase about it and that's when we drop a clanger. Hope not though.

Phew! Thank goodness you're posting again! We all really missed your insights.

So Skacel goes into midfield and Surman is offski. Sounds like good business, if you ask me. Hope he can defend...

Are they worth 10 points? Maybe. It would be a lot more palatable to lose these two (especially Lallana in my view, who doesn't really look like his heart's in it, as opposed to Drew) if we could assure ourselves that we would use a bit of the cash to get some good loans in. Sadly I fear this does not enter Lowe's tiny mind.

I was waiting for you to pop up again, Mrs Davis. Reading down the above thread, see if you can spot a few people who don't think he should play for England. I still don't think he's a 'damned good keeper' but am man enough to admit that one of those saves he made in the last game was - sharp intake of breath - world class. Really excellent. And clearly kept us in the game. So, as a Saints fan, I am happy - although most on here seem to think that the best thing to do when we do well is attack posters like, say, Alpine, rather than celebrate the win or goalless draw or whatever it is has caused them to go all funny at the keyboard. Oh, and by the way, the 'issues' I have include that I still don't think Davis is as good as you salivate about every day with a 'y' in it. I think you might just have to deal with someone having a different opinion to your own.

Forecast? tee hee

That is brilliont.

Win. 6-3, obviously. PS how many runs of the Stokes goal will Setanta show before the match? I think 8.

Good grief.
