del boy

All players have good games and bad games, even within a general trend of "form" For many on here Marek was a world beater when he came back, and he's certainly scored some important goals for us. But he had a really bad game on Tuesday. Its life; we're human. For poor old Kelvin though there's no hiding place, one mistake and were a goal down. Someone else could make a howler, give the ball away, miss a sitter, but it never sticks in the mind quite the same as the goalies mistake!

I can remember that for some parts of some games at the very beginning of the season the football was sublime - and there were many posts on here saying that it was the best seen by Saints for years etc. It was like Arsenal at their best - quick passing football with lots of movement. I also saw this in the pre-season games where, against relatively weak opposition, we banged in a hatful of goals. I remember thinking that it was, like all football and all sport, based on confidence and I dreaded "the boysh" getting knocked about by a few teams of hoofers and being completely knocked out of their stride. It didnt happen immediately, but their confidence seems to have been gradually drained away - and sadly some of our home "support" seems to be part of that. On the whole I think we have been pretty good, but it only takes a few idiots and they always seem to be the loudest. But we pay our ticket money, we have a right to abuse the team dont we?!

Now also on the OS - "Wotte will be without Lee Molyneux who is suspended following his two yellow cards against Swansea, but other than that Saints are in good shape"

Rather than wasting time on here Alain shouldn't you have your head down in the library?

They didn't elaborate - but it won't stop us jumping to conclusions

On Radio Solent they have played a clip of MW saying that the team will be same as v Swansea. Rudi will not be considered.

An outbreak of common sense and reasoned comment on the forum - whats going on?

I think thats exactly it - this could be added to most threads, but it doesnt stop us making up the facts to fit our arguments though!

I'm just grateful to see a goal celebration these days

Wise words I think, thats about spot on

Pah, I bet half of them haven't even heard of SFC

Subtle. I thought it was a serious post till I got to that bit - good one!

You imply there's a choice

Yeh, right

Very frustrating. Never fit enough for a solid 90 mins, fell over as if he was Italian, yet capable of some really good stuff if he could be bothered. A waste of talent of near Fabrician magnitude - he will probably look back at his career in 5 years time and think what he might have achieved if he could be arsed (or arguably if someone had pushed/cajoled him into giving 100%)

Life in general is not so black and white - do you think the newspapers, and media in general, are always giving an objective and impartial view of the world? (rhetorical)

interesting insight - do you have this player's name?

God I hope not - I wouldn't want them to think that the trash we write on this forum is representative of what most Saints fans think

Needs to keep up the ratio from the last 45 mins

I hope not

good point - won't get through the deflector shields of many though

Lets all throw our hands in the air and give up

Shame we cant get the money now - Swansea will have worked out what he's really like by the Summer

Newcastle are also interested in Rennes right-back Rod Fanni, as are Aston Villa and a number of other Premier League clubs. (Telegraph) Would make a great signing at right back - if only for the craic

Let's take every match as it comes
