So you have just clearly contradicted yourself?

Listen, if something can improve you then why not? Your old car might be great, realible, will get you there in the end and your okay with, sometimes it lets you down but hey, thats life. But then someone offers you a F40! What are you going to do? So whats different? Would you trade in Ricky Lambert for Lionel Messi? Seriously, would you? I reckon 9 out of 10 Saints fans would, so wtf is the difference with a manager? I take absolutely nothing away from from NA, i am fully behind him and I am thinking (and hoping) he will turn it around and I hope NC backs him for at least the rest of the season, but.... (see above)

Surely that would be Martin Johnson?

Sorry, but if by the slightest miracle Capello was interested, I'd boot just about anyone out of the door (including NA) to make way for him (at club level).

Listen, the moment he bougt on Heskey against Germany was the time when most people realised that this guy was f ucking useless!

Even now on Sky, darren Lewis quotes "Harry Redknapp has improved every club he went to...", Jesus, how many times do we have to hear that c rap? Obviously relegating a club that had been in the top flight for 27 years counts as an improvement!

If Nigel is not the man, someone is now available with an impeccable 'club' track record on the market now. Come on then NC, lets see what you are made of now...

So you are saying that Adkins should be given more time then. Which is basically to the end of the season, its either now or then really. Theres no point waiting another 5 games or so, you either believe in him now for the rest of the season and commit to that, or you make the change now and bring in someone like Warnock. But you, Alpine are actually saying, whilst not good enough, he should be givin to the end of the season, which is basically what everyone else is saying, agree?

Why is it that no one throws in any solutions, the likes of Alpine and Turkish etc. all this negativity but they never actually say what should be done... either they have not got the bottle to say 'sack Adkins' or they themselves have no idea what the problem is currently, and how to resolve it. Dont come on here with problems, come on here with solutions!

So do I, but after AP, The Sun, Illingsworth, The Echo.... he's a funny and tempremental man perhaps?

did it sink? I wonder because you have brought it up tonight??

You do wonder though, how is NC taking it? Is he the sort to continually put up with poor results, it could be interesting?

I am worried about our home form, it was clearly the lynchpin for the first half of this season and without it for this half, well its going to be difficult. You cant read too much into tonights 'Cup' game, Saturday now becomes the biggest game since the Derby play off semi. If we can win it, and really, nothing short of that is acceptable, it could get us back on track at home, and that is what is going to be the deciding factor over the next three months.

why dont you start an individual thread on your own?

Do you think it is unreasonable for players to print as well as sign when asked for autographs? Like at the dentist..

oh dear, who is this Dune idiot?

If you read MLT's book, its quite clear that Hoddle has a real problem with Matt's actual ability, and as soon as he actually saw it, he was, well seemingly jealous. It can be the only way to put it. Apparently they have reconcilled now, but it amazed me that the same man who appeared at the end of the 'Unbelievable' video was indeed the same man that took him Matt off against Italy, when he had been our only hope of scoring, and then shunned him in 98 after Loftus Road. The icing on the cake for Hoddle was to come to The Dell and try and do the same there. Though Matt has a lot to be accountable in respect of his final years, the Hoddle years certainly took something away at the end, and pretty much killed off the legend.

this is ******, he has not been our best player, and still has a lot more to do to make up anywhere near for his attitude etc for the last year. Jesus, you must be all bible bashi9ng forgive and forget on here! Spose you all want Myra out too?

How long to go?

well, to be factual, he didnt pick him either.

who?

John Denham sits in front of me at SMS, think i might tell him to get off his seat next time some Tory squeal bleats about 'poor old Pompey' and remind 'The House' what they are there for and what The HMRC are there for!

Lambert, without a doubt, showed exactly what we were missing against Leicester. I really think he has come on so much as a 'footballer' in the last two years, and last night i thought (for the first time), this guy could play in the PL. Puncheon was alright, but he (and others, Connelly and Lallana) fail to take any responsibility in front of goal, could have made a difference.

Is Alpine not on here bemoaning NC for not completing the paperwork on time?
