My point is you are accusing the lad of being a one season wonder when he has proven he can score goals over a much longer period of time. This season he has been ****e but then so has the rest of the team. Most strikers are all about confidence. The fact that the team is currently playing without any and creating very few chances is obviously rubbing off on Lambert. The same way Fernando Torres currently looks a shadow of his old self. Or Wayne Rooney. Once they register a few goals they'll be away and Lambert will be no different.

Apart from the fact that he scored a bucket load for Bristol ROvers the season before and was playing last season in a side more full of confidence, quicker and creating more opportunities.

The phal from the Sunrise is palatable.

Great minds think alike... was thinking the exact same thing! Get in!!!!

Pretty sure most of us said this about Molyneux against Plymouth. Sadly Puncheon has been poo so far this season, hoepfully you are right and he finally pulls his finger out today!

Some of the reasons for this; Anyone ITK or with the remotest piece of evidence something may be happening when SFC sign a player or manager that has the gaul to post it on here gets shot down in flames no matter how water tight the rumour is. This is a fans forum, surely it is where fans should be passing on rumours and gossip they heard down the pub/at work etc... but too many "personality posters" as you put them are the ones who insult/mock those who decide to put the rumours on here. This is stopping people from writing what they have heard on the site which limits the content we read about. Another really stupid idea is a massive HCDAJFU thread. Once again, this is a forum. It should be a place to post relevant threads as and when they happen. I'm not going to trawl through 100 pages of rumours but if a thready was started about certain players it would get more banter going and more thrads read. When we signed Rickie Lambert I didnt know until the day after we signed him. Despite checking the forum on an almost daily basis, there were no threads about him apart from what was being said on the HCDAJFU thread. Surely the prospect of signing a player with the record Lambert had at this level when we signed him deserved a dedicated thread of its own? Basically, admin are trying to be too efficient and I agree, are perhaps also trying to please the masses by silencing the outspoken. I'm a big boy, I'll just choose not to read posts from clowns like Alps or SRS/DBP. Theres no point banning them and stopping them from posting altogether; they are Saints fans too and really that should be the only required criteria for posting on this forum.

Apart from allegedly bottling the play off semi final 2nd leg v Derby. Kelvin hasnt really put a foot wrong since.

Sublimely gifted and probably the closest thing you'll get to a genius in snooker. I just hate the whole "tortured soul" thing he's got going on. He plays snooker for a living and gets paid handsomely for it. Man up and pot the ****ing balls you to$$er.

I heard it was more Dodd than Beattie...

Pretty sure they would be languishing around the lower mid table playing his usual brand on anti-football though. I cant say I would be over-enamoured if he was our manager and we are in League One. Let alone a club attracting around 50,000 fans a week who are famed for their attacking brand of football in recent times (last 20 odd years) and disregard for defensive duties, bit of a culture shock to them and was never really going to work out. That said, I've watched them a couple of times this season and last season on account of a lot of my family being Geordies and Mike Williamson who was once on our books looks quality.

Anal Shearer. Thats a good one.

I was in the West stand in the family enclosure most of the time on account of me only being a nipper but always wanted to sit in Archers. Did a few times but never got a season ticket there.

FM 2010 hints, tips, cheats & gems of players / tactics
sambosa75 replied to SO16_Saint's topic in Computer Games
If I buy FM10 today, will it be free of all the bugs they usually have when they first come out or will I still be required to download all the patches for it? -
Best of luck. Of course we'd have all preferred O'Neill but realistically was it ever really going to happen? Adkins has a superb record and S****horpe have had nationwide plaudits for the football they play. If he can carry that on with us and keep encouraging our passing, attacking-style football but installing a bit more consistency in us this will be a fantastic appointment. Welcome to the club Nigel and best of luck.
-
I think the reasons people are underwhelmed is because S****horpe sort of discovered him by accident. That said, during his short managerial career he has done a very good job and seems quite an intelligent bloke also. A bit of an anti-climax to some of the names that have been bandied about but in my opinion, a damn site better than Paul Hart or Phil Brown. Would have taken Alan Shearer above Adkins however and think he may have been up for the job and in an ideal world we'd be celebrating the second coming of Kevin Keegan or going mental at having Martin O'Neill.
-
Great post and I am most definitely in agreement on this. Imagine the effect he'd have on Rickie, Puncheon, Lallana etc... I also agree that bringing him in would basically mean nailed on promotion. Tactically at the highest level he himself has admitted he has limitations but as far as motivating the players at his disposal, he is up there with the very best of all time.

Sheffield Wednesday 24hrs from administration
sambosa75 replied to corsacar saint's topic in General Sports
Good news for us. They will be a fantastic investment though when they are going cheap for someone to pump some money in to. They'll be fine but hopefully will struggle as the season goes on leading to a take over in the summer. -
KK has promoted every club he has managed. He would have us playing great football and would get the absolute best out of players like Lambert, Puncheon, Lallana and Schneiderlin. He will most certainly do for a couple of seasons. Who cares if he gets bored after a couple of seasons and does a runner? I'm confident he'll leave us in a much stronger position when that time comes than when we are right now. This would be a great move. He's a sentimental old sausage as well and will probably quite fancy a return to Southampton so he can be close to his daughters who I understand still live in the area. I dont know if she still does but one of his daughters used to work in the SMS ticket office.

Perhaps you'd take out 5 minutes to check my previous posts to see I have never claimed to be ITK. That said, if a mate that I know well happens to see someone at the aiport who is in the frame for the vacant managerial position at the football club that I support, I dont think me posting it on a Southampton FC message board is the most outlandish thing in the world to do. Given the fact that odds have also been slashed this afternoon when an announcement is due tomorrow I think it also happens to add a little more creedence but still, really witty post all the same. So, er, well done.

I hope to god you are right.

My mate has just updated his status on Facebook saying he met Phil Brown at Southampton airport about an hour ago. He really isnt the type to lie about this. Doesnt post on here so is unaware of all the other rumours apart from what he hears in the pub. I just cant see it being anyone else now. If 5 Live say its already signed and sealed and will be announced midweek then what other reason could he possibly be flying in to Southampton for? Very concerned...
-
To be fair, if Steve Clarke come with him I would be feeling reasonably positive about this. Maybe we could talk him in to putting his boots back on as well!!!
-
He thought working at Newcastle with the likes of Rob Lee, Alan Shearer, Shay Given, Nolberto Solano etc.. was beneath him. I really dont think he would enjoy working with Hammond, Puncheon, Barnard and Jaidi. No disrespect to who I've mentioned but I think Gullit would get frustrated with their limitations very quickly.
