  1. I doubt the rest of the teams in the Championship outside the Big 4 clubs didn't think it was so nice. I expect their fans were cursing… "if only those Big 4 clubs would bugger off and play amongst themsleves, then the Championship would be really competitive and fun to watch"
  2. Would make more sense to bring Tella back
  3. Oh really? Surprise, surprise. Comment of the week.
  4. That is one of the meanest comments that has been posted on here recently. Completely unnecessary.
  5. Are we giving Shoehorn the boot?
  6. Yes and No. Good news about Downes but sadly JWP seems to be on his way out having made little impact there. Not that I want to see him back here, he made his choice and the risk he took by leaving us. It was always my view that he was the archetypical 'one-club player' and this may be the confirmation. Duck out of water. No doubt there'll be links to him now but it is better that both sides move on. Another for the Arlesford Golf Club Veterans?
  7. I would't raise your hopes too high if negotiating new contracts with McCarthy and Adams is the height of their ambition.
  8. Exactly why we should not touch either if them with a barge pole. Obviously already more or less retired, their minds are on the wrong things altogether. We want 24/7 footballers commited to our cause.
  9. The explanation of who can buy what, when and where on the SFC is anything but clear and is likely to confuse many people affected by the ground re-organisation. It looks like we're heading for the inevitable shambles and disappointed and disaffected fans. Who writres their stuff and do they ever get people to critique it before it is launched. 1/10 SFC, you certainly know how to cock things up.
  10. Agree. We want players who are proud to be playing for Southampton and see a career with Saints as an aspiration, not greedy chancers who will drop their skirts to the highest bidders.
  11. If Wolves get Broja then they probably won't want Adams. Does that mean we are stuck with useless p**** if he fails to find another club or will he just be an outcast.
  12. He was being ironic, sandwich!
  13. Pedantic but necessary. Keep up!
  14. It's a wind up, best not to bite.
  15. Complete tosh! Admit it, you just made this up cos you don't like him.
  16. Really weird Premier League now, seven clubs from London, only five Northen clubs and three on the south coast. Hardly representative of the country as a whole.
  17. Surprised that Man City aren't in the top five. How many points will they be deducted?
  18. Excuse me? I am one of your 'older fans' who has had a mobile phone for over 30 years, enjoys social media and can perform 21st century miracles on my MacBook Pro. I also have a very good personal relationship with ChatGTP. If people younger than I haven't kept up wiith the digital revolution they have only themselves to blame. As time goes by those lacking essential IT skills will be left far behind; the world will move on and nobody will care two hoots about them. All this whinging about offering easier alternatives for the hard of learning only excerbates the situation. All I ask of the Club is that their IT systems are robust and fit for purpose when all this is rolled out. That was not the case for Wembley tickets.
  19. Doubt we will need options. The player will have a say in his own future and if he loives it here and loves working with Martin then it will be only a matter of setting the price. WHU saying they want "another look at him" is tantamount to saying we will have to pay top price to get him. I have no doubt whatsoever that he will be a Southampton player next season.
  20. Don't Labour the point.
  21. There are lots of folk on here whose posts are worth reading and quite a few that aren't. Some deserve long service medals, others sway with the wind, vocal when we win; invisible when we lose! You know who you are. The Ignore option filters out the bad and the ugly leaving only the good! Great to live in a sanatised world isn't it? My vote goes to @Wade Garrett, it shouldn't I know but his match previews are strangely compulsive. Let's hope that this honour does not mean that he over reaches himself in the future and disppoints through a lack of spontaniety. A shout out for @Whitey Grandad and @Lighthouse for their invaluable common sense in keeping things simple and brief. Thank you too to all on my good list for the entertainment that helps keep us sane when all else is falling apart.
  22. Should we be in for Kalvin Phillips on loan from Man City? Our future can't be built upon 36 yo pension seeking ex-players...
  23. Why not, he has certainly mastered the art of unlocking difficult opposition defences.
