Football Special

Obviously awful, but need to show net spend as well

The question is what is their objective? If it's to build a successful football club then clearly they will never be competent enough to do that.

Is it like the emperors new clothes? He's convinced all is great and no one else is prepared to tell him the truth ?

He spends time talking to fans so has a good idea what the actual fanbase feels and I don't mean the FAB types but actual match going regulars

I agree, I don't doubt a small crowd will be there, perhaps none of the Sports Republic mob will be in attendance anyway. Remember they all showed up at QPR away after the Still sacking (including Rasmus) I forget we're still paying Still as well, what a shocking waste of resources

Be careful, Nathan Wood might tell us to fuck off again , don't want to hurt his feelings

Remember when the club claimed they were underwhelmed by candidates after Still's departure and cleared the way for Tonda to be given the job, more likely no one was answering the phone to them, it's not a real football manager position, it's a 'head coach' to implement Sports Republics player trading strategy

It's astonishing period of mismanagement about to culminate with a total collapse at Fratton next week , it just can't continue any longer , good to see Alfie House is calling them out publicly , need more of this at every opportunity, get the fraud Spors back out for an interview- he needs to say if he isn't the real decision maker and Rasmus is pulling the strings (look at the Garner links for clear indication of this)

Ah had missed that, never been more certain of a Saints defeat that I am for Fratton next Sunday.

Where are the Skates? I thought they were struggling as well

I think it's a real possibility and have started to convince myself at least we'll get to do a new ground at Bromley FC

Charlton Athletic manager Nathan Jones confirmed they will be losing James Bree’s services - with the on-loan Southampton defender making his farewell appearance in today’s 1-0 win over Sheffield United at The Valley. The 28-year-old was replaced at the start of the second half as the Addicks looked to attack opposition reduced to nine men after red cards for Djibril Soumare and Japhet Tanganga. Tyreece Campbell came on to replace Bree at left wing-back. James Bree made his 19th appearance for Charlton in today’s victory against Sheffield United/Picture: Keith Gillard Southampton boss Tonda Eckert confirmed this week that he wanted to add Bree to his squad. His predecessor Will Still had been happy to let the player, out of contract in the summer, head to SE7. “The nice thing is that I think with James, you have an opportunity,” said Eckert. “He can play as a half-back, he can play as a full-back, and he has now played as a wing-back a lot. “There are not many players who have that profile and feel comfortable in all of those positions. Defending inside, defending outside, but also have the physical capacity to get up the pitch. “I think it’s different from a player that comes into a completely new group. But of course, we need to get a feeling for each other. We will meet on Monday and see where we’re at.”

I wouldn't mind him as our manager to sort a few of the players out, saw an interview with him once where he mentioned spending his youth development years at The Dell so he might have a soft spot for the club, he was also there with Phil Parkinson now Wrexham manager, oddly neither of them ever made a first team appearance for Saints but have gone on to have long careers in the game. Odds on Danny Ings getting a goal?

I thought Armstrong looked really down today, I think he's had enough of the club and would like a move

Make that into a Northam TIFO
