My view has already been stated. The comment about revisiting it was in response to Saintant who suggested he’d seen something in Archer v Birmingham so was prepared to give him longer. He was replying to my earlier comment: He reinforced my view again today

have just stumbled across this on the internet. https://www.insideworldfootball.com/2025/12/19/saints-owner-sport-republic-pulls-levski-sofia-acquisition-bulgarians-baulk-mco-model/ Headline of :Saints owner Sport Republic pulls out of Levski Sofia acquisition after Bulgarians baulk at MCO model is a bit misleading as it reads that Levski didn't want to get involved in the multi-club model. rather than Dragan walking away entirely of his own free will.

It does although at least when we move forward we do so with a lot more pace than we’ve seen for a few years. Trouble is that if Scienza and Fellows aren’t available it reduces our pace and how we play. The pissing around at the back drives me up the wall though.

Don’t think he reached the dizzy heights of being ‘average’ with us. Complete crap. He was the Bazunu of Scandinavian midfielders.

In terms of matches my greatest memories: SF v Palace 1976 The final in 1976. Fratton 1984 - will never forget the Saints end erupting when Moran scored. JPT Play off final 1989 4-1 v Liverpool Goals: MLT first v Newcastle 1993 or 4 Channon v Liverpool 1982 Ruddock penalty v Newcastle 1989

The signing of Keegan is probably the greatest moment to recall, like the shooting of JFK, you can remember where you were and how you heard it. When visiting down that way I often drive past the Potters Heron and recall that was the venue from where Lawrie and Saints shook the football world.

Out by a year. It was 1981/2. The remarkable thing that season is that we went top of the League after beating Middlesbrough away in January (I was there !!) and were top of the table longer than anyone else that season, but fell away. The game SOG refers to was after we’d been overtaken at the top. But that win put us back on top. I think Mark Whitlock scored the late winner.

Tough luck if the prick is sat in front of you, obstructing your view as he dances the game away.

Rushworth was mentioned on here in the summer, but the comment was made - with some justification - that he'd been crap at Swansea a season or so before. Another goalkeeper from Brighton is Beadle at Sheff Weds. Strange and sad that they sign young players they can loan out, yet we end up with the like of Bazunu, and Larios that we can't barely give away.

Perhaps those two seats were specifically reserved for the ‘dancing bloke’ and an accomplice. Stick him and Westwood directly opposite each other at either end of the pitch. They can spend 90 minutes gurning at each other, ringing a bellend, or ‘dancing’. ITV will love that as a Sunday lunchtime spectacular.

Just hope Damien’s mate hasn’t played for Hamburg in their Cup this season. Don’t want to found out he’s cup tied after signing

Bet Celtic can't believe they've appointed a manager no better, possibly worse than Lego.

I thought he was regarded as crap at both Lincoln and Cheltenham. Perhaps there is hope for Downs yet.

Wonder how bad, or what Bazunu has to do, for Tonda to drop him and bring McCarthy back.

So perhaps he’ll stay longer than Wilcox. So that’s two days after Easter before he announces he’s off.
