He totally drifts out of games when he plays in the hole too IMO. I'm not sure we can afford the luxury of a "hole" at the moment! Simple formation, simple tactics, with decent players giving 100%.
-
Sometime in March I believe.
-
We could've just not sacked Pearson IMO.
-
I agree largely although I would play Lallana wide and MS in the middle. I think I would pick McG ahead of Pekhart too.
-
Apologies to the people who were sceptical and or negative

Nah, bring back Pearson. -
Two upfront. We have some decent players so let's keep it simple. John + Peckhart/McG upfront. KD back in goal. Lallana and Surman on the wings. Wotton in CM. KD back in goal. That's not such a week team. FFS if we keep it simple I'm sure we could stay up but this 4-2-1-2-1 / 4-1-2-2-1 won't work without the right players. At the moment we do not have them. Holmes was key to keeping the width and we can't seem to settle on e right winger. Dyer and BWP should've both been sacked - they're absolutely fecking useless and I would be happy if neither of them played for us again... Anyway, back to the intial positive tone... let's KEEP IT SIMPLE and see how we get on.

I'm not convinced we will make the play-offs.
-
Ahh... very touching. How thoughtful.
-
I wish we would start with 2 upfront (with Stern being one of them). This system is not working without Holmes and a genuine right winger.
-
There's no point throwing in the towel. As long as there's a chance that we can finish 4th bottom then we must keep going and give it our all. Administration will almost certiainly lead to relegation and won't necessarily get rid of those c ***s.

Let's play with 2 up front on Saturday... How about that for a revolutionary new set-up?
-
Yes indeed! Once a typo, twice... funny! I like the way he's adopted Scooby's flat-cap signifier too.

Bart in being shi* shocker.
-
Prob Kyle Davis I guess?
-
Thomson, Hatch...... plus one!

According to Saints TV radio this is the team: ----------------------BB-------------------- Cork------Perry--------Svensson---------Mills ---------------------Wotton---------------- James-----------------------------Surman--- -------------BWP-----------Lallana--------- --------------------McGoal-----------------

According to a Derby forum I laughed at after the match, he's on £26k a week!

Obvioulsy the demise of Pompey would be very entertaining! [-o I just can't see any effect of "big" clubs facing financial hardship other than increasingly desperate, anti-competitive and financially non-distributative measures being put in place.
-
Why? I have not the slightest idea what a "cerebal wit" is or where I can find one for these people. Thank you for submitting a blustering, shrill, pugnacious, bloated trencherman of a post though. As always, its entertainment value far outweighed any substantive misgivings the reader may have had. Keep it up, Bruce Inson.

Whilst it is plausible that some Prem teams could face severe financial difficulties, the notion that this is good news for Saints is pure guff IMO.
-
Lol - £5m! You're having a laugh. We'd get £2m max.
-
:lol: Funniest post on here for fecking ages! :prayer: PMSL.

Oh that old chestnut I'm thinking of getting an 18year old Swedish au pair one day..... y'know, to help the kids.

I have no ITK knowledge of any of our financial agreements (and if I did I wouldn't tell anyone anyway!) but it would be 99.99999999% likely that NU will have a fixed legal charge (in common parlance a "mortgage") over the stadium. They are 99.9999% likely to have other sorts of security in place too. If we went into administration they would be entitled to the money from the sale of the stadium (presumably all of it unless some looney wants to pay £25m + for it!). As a secured creditor they would also be first in the queue (behind the administrator's costs) of creditors so they would get the lion's share of everything else as well. The overdraft with Barclays may or may not be secured (probably is). If it is secured then the two banks have probably entered into a separate deed regulating their security position. Apart from a small portion ringfenced for unsecured creditors (capped at £600k I think), the two banks would probably take everything (which probably still isn't that much!). So yes, the issue of who "owns" the stadium is in some respects a moot point. Phew.... Sorry to go off on one. It's been a while since we had a good juicy takeover thread with City Code, share wheeling and dealing, due diligence etc... (I think the Asturius Sports one has died a slow and painful death!) - a nice meaty administration thread just isn't quite as exciting!
