So much fun was had with him at the helm. Good times.

We'd be looking to avoid the toxicity not play somewhere more contaminated.

Jesus the bigger ones usually charge way less.

The only thing baffling is your blind support of him despite what's obvious to everyone else. Perhaps he's a lovely bloke, perhaps you're the new Mad Nate family member desperately trying to stand up for your own flesh and blood. But when it comes to footballing ability, Manning is sadly lacking. He'd be alright for a lower league club not looking to get promotion to the Premier League. But he is nowhere near good enough for us, it's infuriating.

They'll definitely score another so please don't sit back. Let's keep going for more.

Goal forward we look dangerous and fluid. At the back we are shambolic. I'm actually better at football than Manning. Che Che Che 3-2. Yeah that's brilliant from Che, did very well there.

Not everything. Just the stuff where he's absolute dog sh*t. It happens a lot.

Are you looking for a biscuit too?

Awww diddums. Mr. Bad Man didn't shake the hand of their goalkeeper after the match? Come sit on my knee and have a biscuit. It'll be alright.

If we're in the Premier League he'll be happy enough to return. If we're not, he'll go elsewhere. For a lot less than the deal we agreed with Juve.

We're obviously going to take the lead in something like the 12th minute. Then that'll be the end of our party.

Hope you're right. But it seems Martin loves him.

Hate watching him play.

I want us to win the league too, but I can recognise that it's highly unlikely and that a Leeds win would make our promotion a little bit harder. Leicester must win, for the sake of us getting promoted and hanging onto to THB and possibly Downes.

What a bizarre response. We swapped a very talented player for a very average one. Why pretend that people are using him as a scapegoat?

Undoubtedly. But it's not just his fault, everyone is shocking today. Losing Downes and having to bring on Rothwell really put the nail in the coffin.

Could see after 5 minutes we were losing this. Every single player is off it today.

I know. Imagine talking about an ex manager getting a new job on a football forum. That's rehab-worthy stuff, that is.

Correct. Comes from a lovely family too. Cathryn and Ian certainly did a good job raising him and Ian actually has a soft spot for Saints after he worked in the city in the 80s. This is a great move for everyone.

Bit of a coup for your restaurant that, good luck! Perhaps the next event could be Talking to Water with Rickie Lambert

What's this about football in a library? Have totally missed that one. Any videos to judge how bad it is?

Stephens was phenomenal in that second leg at Anfield.

First we had the Yellow Day at Blackburn away circa 2005 and now this. If this new club initiative means we have to see Crab Lungs wearing a plastic fireman's helmet again then that's it, season ticket going in the bin.

Can envisage the singers moving to the top of the Northam where the safe standing section is, and the lower half just becoming another Kingsland/Itchen full of quieter folk who wish to sit and watch in peace. Then as somebody mentioned, being spread out like at Wolves away can prove impossible to create a decent atmosphere. Having all the Northam singers compacted into a couple blocks on top of one another (ooh err) creates a pretty decent amount of noise as is. That combined with the fact that many people do wish to sit near the away fans (not myself personally but it's definitely a thing) could lead to a dispersed atmosphere. Remember when SMS was opening, all the discussion was about where the "new Archers" was going to be. It was agreed to be the Northam because it was situated near the away fans. Even the Archers end was right next to the away section. People just like being near the enemy. Hope this is well thought through, may end up having the opposite effect than intended.
