Saint Without a Halo

Blood cleavers! Are we being sold to the Saudis!

Our Roster is not that big then if Hughes keeps falling out with players, we could have done with a bit of Boufals creativity off the bench this year too at times!

Errr politicians?

No chance we’d get 70m everyone knows a side going down is desperate to reduce costs and only peanuts are offered In those circumstances

The **** hit the fan when Cortese and Potch left it just took a bit of time for all their good work and club set up to be undone! We were given a short lease of life by good recruitment through Koeman who inherited a threadbare squad after Les and Ralph cashed in but he managed to recruit well and impose a modicum of control over the Les and Ralp excesses however Puel was not strong enough and Les and Ralph were allowed to believe we could continue selling replacing well and making money! They have been well and truly found out with a series of spectacularly bad recruits and expensive contract extensions for mediocre players they hoped to sell later For large profits! Who would want to come in now?

Should be able to judge when to come of the line and to catch the ball then!

Explains everything all those late nights studying meant he fell asleep in goal!

There are some excellent women prsenters pundits etc as outlined above however I would rather every job was filled based on ability experience and comparable qualifications not on quotas or to make up numbers. Unfortunately we now have political correctness gone mad

He meant Rooster not roster as we do seem to be very chicken on the pitch!

To be fair, the thread says “set for saints return ?” (question mark). So not that significantly different after all !

To stop constant interruptions each captain should be given say two opportunities to ask the ref for a review if wrong he loses a life. This way we limit each side asking for a review at every opportunity and breaking up play like in the world cup

Errrrr the win in Spain and draw in Croatia? They appear to bode well for a young team in transition I like the fact Southgate has a system and is building a team rather than pick a bunch of past it top 5 team players I am actually watching England again having got bored with them over the ladt 20 years

Come on the poor chap is retiring and he cannot expect to live off the £2.5m plus bonuses etc he has been getting over the last 20 years! Can he?

Thats what a lack of funds does for you no wonder the cupboard is bare for January!

Makes you seem an optimist at last with your consistent forecast of 17th

That is the biggest load of clap trap I have ever seen emerge from a board and I have seen some in my time basically No vision No strategy No plan No money In summarry we will muddle through! In the great words of wisdom from Sargent Frazier of Dads Army We Are Doomed! Krueger even makes Trump sound intelligent!

Also his main competition there is Long ! Easy Peasy

Ron Davies Channon Le Tiss and Paine we would never be short of goals again and we would have plenty of the old 6-3 5-4 wins too subs Shearer Lambert Macdougall and Boyer Would certainly make watching fun again

Is Sam Gallaher injured? If not why has he not been getting any game time these days I noticed he has not been in any of the under 23’s squads recently

Pointless Arguments whether we are 300m 200m 100m or less squad we are still crap!

This is no surprise! It is bound to be the case if you sell all whose value increases!

We are no longer a club playing attractive good football that up and coming young stars will come to cheaply to make a name for themselves and we wont pay for established quality What is Wilson supposed to do?

Mcarthy is the only player to improve as he gets the most practice

The rot set in when Cortese left he had a plan and a vision now we have neither. We were lucky to get Koeman and have the remenants of a haf decent squad that was performing well enough to encourage talent to still come here after Poch left. However since Koeman left the lack of a vision and a plan have become clear and obvious to all. Koeman saw it and so did Puel. We are quick to sell anyone half decent and we keep the dead wood this policy has but one outcome. We are no longer a club that attracts good youth and we are not prepared to pay for proven quality again this leads only one way Why on earth would anyone half decent want to join this lot now? It is not the managers it is the deep malaise that is slowly rotting the club from top down. A new broom is required urgently throughout the club no sticky tape and plaster solutions will now suffice the rot is now too deep!

Interesting watch but i still dont think he gets it!
