EFL to vote on extending the Championship playoffs
franniesTache replied to badgerx16's topic in The Saints
I can't believe there are people against this, it's a massive improvement on SOCCERBALL and keeps the excitement going for the end of the series. The London Hornets vs Derbyshire Rams would be prime time viewing in match week 49! Hopefully they schedule the game day for a late evening kick off so the world doesn't miss out -
With time and persistence they'll achieve their final dream goal. Every game a bubble game.

What’s your unpopular opinion on Saints?
franniesTache replied to Willo of Whiteley's topic in The Saints
I mean as someone who knows what happened with Fonte, directly from the horses mouth, i can tell you for nothing that is absolute bollocks. The person responsible for Fonte leaving was Fonte, with some nudging from his agent. He acted like a dick and didn't give the club a choice. But it's fine you blame Puel who had nothing to do with it. That was such a relief that goal, genuinely felt like we'd never win again, up there with Barry Horne's goal for one of the biggest "release" moments i've seen from a crowd at a game I take it you don't go away? -

And this is where my "puel was good" and "ralph should've been sacked" align. Puel 8th and a cup final which was lost by a bad decision, beat inter milan at home & played some brilliant counter attacking football away from home is roundly thought of by many as shit. Ralph who lost 9-0 twice and never got us higher than 11th or into a cup final is somehow a messiah who only didn't achieve domination because of things out of his control. Surely clapping at the fans can't make that much of a difference? -

Which reminds me of another... Ralph should've been sacked immediately after the first 9-0 as a point of principle that that level of failure wasn't acceptable at the club -

this reminds me of another one actually, The word "legend" is massively overused by fans because we are so starved of real legends. Since Le Tissier we have only had one, Ricky Lambert, that fits the profile. -

As a team we are completely irrelevant to 99% of the teams in the leagues, and that is absolutely fine. Claude Puel was a very good manager for us and even the "boring football" tag wasn't correct. JWP is a skate and will never be a legend. Our away support is pretty cringeworthy these days. Silence at a game is preferable to a lot of the songs that are sung (stared in a chapel, songs about libraries, most songs about the skates). To many of our fans take football WAY too seriously, it should be a laugh with your mates not an exercise in stat counting. The way away tickets are dished out is completely wrong, it should be season ticket holders + x aways first, then members + x aways, until it gets down to general sale. As a fanbase we have a losers mentality & will put up with glorious loses far too easily. The fans singing about championship again ole ole ole last season are part of the problem with what's gone wrong at the club, if we don't show ambition & standards why do we expect the players to? David Armstrong is one of the best players to ever play for the club and should be held up on the same level as many of our legends -

Hopefully the FAB will leads us all in a round of "We Appreciate That You're Here, We Appreciate That You're Here" to the away fans tomorrow to show how welcoming we are as a club. Maybe followed by "We respect you because you've travelled", or "Whatever happens, we hope football wins"
-
Is there any truth in the fact they're finally discussing how to stop people from saying nasty words to the away fans? Apparently one away fan was accused of having a face with it's own gravitational pull the other week because it was so big and this really hurt his feelings. Also hopefully they'll be talking about how we can invest more money in the women's team because the mens team is taking too much of it. I believe The FAB will be on the money with these things given how well they represent us
-
It was disgraceful behaviour and obviously i chastised them for doing it, how could they disrespect the Rule Of The FAB like that? Anyway i've taken their names for the list, i believe one of them is called pike

The LOLeicester City appreciation thread
franniesTache replied to Midfield_General's topic in The Saints
Personally i'm entirely behind their appeal and i think it should not just be overturned but Charlton, Blackburn and West Brom should all be given an additional six points for the mental stress this has caused. -
Bit of a stretch to call Fulham south london, i mean craven cottage is north of the river.

Done it loads so probably one of the ones i'd want the least, of those left an away at any of Port Vale, Macclesfield or Mansfield would be my preference. Otherwise given it should be a weekend game Bristol City would be great as Bristol is a cracking day out for pubs, in fact of the teams left the only one i wouldn't want is Wolves away, so Wolves it is then
