"I've heard....". Of course "I heard". "I heard" it on here, "I heard" it from some bloke taking the ****** in the pub, someone else "heard" it from me when i was taking the ******. People make things up for a wind-up. Take away the first 10 games: if we had the form since then thorughout the season, and didn't start on -10, we would be champions. So to sack Pardew now is basically blaming him for the -10 (ugh?) or the slow start. If blaming him for the slow start, he would have been sacked earlier. Hughes wouldn't come to a league 1 side. he's ben sacked by a big prem club even though doing well and in line for another prem job (there is bound to be some manager movement this summer). Would he come to a league 1 club? Very unlikely. Would he come to a league 1 club that sacks a "5-year-plan" manager after one SUCCESFUL(!) season? Of course not. NC knows all the above. NC is a *****ly character. Most people seem to find him that way. But he's very rational. So stop picking up a known fact or two, and adding 1 and 1 to get 37. Jeez, its silly season and its not even hot weather.

Can we possibly ban under 18s from the forum, or open a special forum for them?

Mostly. So many chavs in Southampton

Quite right (although i voted for someone else). More next season please

Nah, reward the boycotters! if too many happy-clappers had tunred up then Lowe would still have scraped enough together to buy yet another handful of maic beans and we would be still neck deep (or deeper) in $h!t. Free STs for the boycotteers. Otherwise price sounds nice to me

Rupert Lowe Clive Woodward Given no authority, responsibility or control Surrounding by nobs who thought they knew better

Sounded pretty rational,reasonable and objectiove on radio Solent. No quotes on here then.

I blame it all on the ready availability of cheap sherry. Oh, and alzheimers

You sure you got your figures right? After 10 games we were on -2 points, so we got 72 points in the last 34 games..... Currently: 7 Southampton 44 37 70

Evidence? You say, he say, who say. Whatever. Not sayign you are wrong, but most of the time a player chests the ball there are screams of "handball" and outraged swearing at the officials. Not to mention ball-not-100%-over-the-line etc. From where I was it was as much backing in as fouling. But then I was in the Northam end, so not best suited to say. In the event the penalty wasn't giben so bu deifintion it wasn't a penalty.

OK, I read this this morning and thought you were not worth the effort of a response. "They went to war against the enemy"? What sort of planet do you live on, Stu? They were up for a fight, breaking the law, acting against all common decency. And you think its OK just because the others live 20 miles down the M27? jeez! If not that then what else? Becauise they are black/gay/moslem/don't live in Romsey/don't drink the same beer as Stu? "they...should get medals"? What sort of planet do you live on, Stu? they should get what the laws decrees, Stu, because they are just drunk, dumb thugs. Time you grew up a bit I think.

How come p i $ $ gets 6 stars?

The way things are, Lowe could have put us in admin any time he wanted. Any debtor can try to force admin. To that extent the timing is very much in the hands of the board of directors, hence Lowe. He chose to wiat until finally pushed. Sort of like a man gioven a bottle of whisky and a loaded pistol - people come back the next day to find a drunk who is still alive, and he gets dragged to the firing squad. he could/should have done the decent thing, but he didn't. Hence you, me, the club and everyone else suffers from his We are so much better off now than a year ago i don't really care any more, but i wouldn't ****** on Lowe if he was on fire.

Washes it? I bet it never gets washed. Mmm, those sweaty smells are just what it takes to get your average 70-year old going. Allegedly.

That's right. there is no cash flow problem, so no need to rush. This is a good sign for the finaicial health of the club, so don't panic.

Errr, no, it was the voice of FormerSaintsManagerDave Merrington

**** **** ****y **** **** **** huddersfield

End of life. No! Maybe not! NOT end of life! Couldn't make it up. (Well, of course you could, but its still jolly exciting, eh?)

Lowe's Legacy. Looking at our record since the first 10 games, if we had maintiened our form (more than 2 points per game) over those first 10 games then we would have 22 more points. the rest is Lowe's legacy and AP building the team. add 22 to where we are now to get an idea of the form of this team. In response to the OP, i go for "Wind up merchant", no doubt the Alpine troll.

But you want him to fail this season, you miserable t w@??????????????? We still have an outiside chance of a semi-miracuous play-off spot and you just want to slag the manger and team off all the fArkin time. You are on my ignore list you miserable F uk cer

You miss the point very badly. Those men lost their lives trying to help and save others. They didn't have to - they could have stayed at home, eaten crumpets, drank a cup of tea and knitted some booties. But they didn't. they went where they couldn't come back. I had an earplug in when the announcement was made (although god knows the announcements are unintelligible where I sit) so didn't know what was happening. Clapping now doesn't seem enough really.

Errrr...... no. I am ACCEPTING of another year in division 3, but still hope we can get up this year. i don't think this is our "true position". we are here because of Lowe's Legacy plus the fact we started the season without a squad worthy of division 4. So I do not accept for one minute it is our "true position". Plus also we are playing better than many teams in division 2, so on "merit" we wouldn't be here. But here we are. Hopefully go up after this years play offs, although part of me wants to go up as champions, and that would mean next year. You can stay in Wimborne and division 3, but not for me, thanks very much.

Well, no, it doesn't even out over a season statistically, but he also missed the pen on JP - two handed push to the chest. Thought the lino should have got that, but he was consistently worse than the referee.

Someone today mouthing off mid block 42. very very foul-moouthed. Also very funny some of the time. Seemed OK to me in block 42, but not in the posh parts of the ground

Yeah, right. Pardew out! Footballfan in!!! Footballfan with his infinite wisdom.
