If Nicholas Cortais sacks Nigel Atkins I'll be so annoyed, especially for some guy called Pachetti from Spain.

See post #44, you lent my arse a lesson in twitter forensics

Seems the reports was first mentioned in Spain on the 10th of January - maybe Cortese reacting to the Chelsea loss if there is truth in it.

I'll just quote your prediction from the Stoke build up thread....

Didn't you say that regarding Ramirez? Miserable bugg3r

Hmmm, not too sure, depends on January IMO and if they reinforce.

So what if we were, a lot of teams do now and then (show too much respect). Hopefully we're learn from it and not show too much respect moving forward.

The worlds most dour man

Federicci hasn't been without some howlers this season though..

'Southampton actually played quite well in their 1-0 defeat by Liverpool last weekend' What?

Chorus of this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6myNbk15sMs I see him running down the left He isn't old enought to drink He should be tucked up in his bed Shaw's Seventeen and sublime He gets the ball and takes them on Passes it like he is the Don Don't sell this kid we should be keeping Shaw's Seventeen and sublime Probably a bit wordy, but at least it is something different.

You think he can go no further due to his post match interviews? I'd be very surprised if he speaks to the players the same way he speaks to Adam Blackmoor

Can someone remind me of the pubs in Soton that show the games please?

I notice non of the players spoke to the press today? Or it is not on Saints Player. Making sure they're purely focused on the task ahead...

He he he.

Who's losing their jobs?

The CEO of Tesco is not a shelf stacker. FACT.

Well for one the infrastructure of a school and a football club are not that obvious as items for comparison. In fact it is difficult to compare football clubs with most organisations/industries. I thought of an example of this the other day regarding the Boruc incident. A lot of people on the thread were defending him saying he was given some and was right to retaliate. I used to work in a call centre if customer had a go at me and I retaliated with foul and abusive language I would be sacked. Why shouldn't the same apply to Boruc? Because sports/entertainment industries are different to everything else. The customer is hardly ever right and the staff have the final say. I realise I've digressed, but wanted to make that point.

You're digging a hole mate, this is the kind of situation when you should just stop

Ha ha an Alpine 'losing it' moment. They're the best.

Go on then - what's our best team/formation?

What were you doing at the birth of his child?

No need to be rude, was just opening up for debate something that I have noticed. You don't agree - fine.

Something I've noticed this season (as well as the awful defending), is a tendency for players to look around for someone to blame when something goes wrong, and dare I say it on a couple of occasions throw the towel in and not take responsibility. Something that was evident over the last couple of years was an excellent bond and general spirit in the team, where they all seemed to enjoy playing together and wanting to work for each other. I just don't see that this year as much and wonder whether a factor could be the change in personnel - is it as simple as a alteration in the changing room social structure? Or is that ****** and it is just the case that it's the first time this group of players as a collective have really had their back up against the wall?
