It's funny because United wanted Ron, he always believes it would have been different - maybe harder for him there with no Painey and Sydy crossing for him.

YAY...all our stuff is encouraging, moving in the right direction!!

Rollin', rollin', rollin'...Two encouraging goals for Ricky, three more points, a clean sheet, massive home gate and support and a fine win against our upstart rivals. Keep the good vibe going!!

You guys are awesome!! Thanks so much.

...in the club? I'm suffering a brain freeze and cannot recall.

Plus all that racist schit with Guc http://goal.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/06/03/onyewu-goes-to-court-to-stop-racist-abuse/

Another game undefeated, we could be starting a roll, added to that an away point. Excellent support yet again and a first goal for our Brazillian. Here we go!!

This week we won (on the road), gained three points (at the toughest away game) and didn't concede a goal (for the second game in a row). Let's feed off the positivity!! "We are the boys in the red and white...."

We are Southampton - The pride of the South FFS

Anyone else cannot get 'Saints Player' to transmit??

Oh dear.... http://soccernet.espn.go.com/tables?league=ita.1&cc=5901

Barnard f'sure!

Here we go!! We gotta a point, we didn't lose, we conceded no goals for the time in ages and created a lot. Baby steps!!

We are the boys in the red and white...well mostly white these days. COYS anyway!!

Yeah...harmless nostalgia which had a very bonding effect on the majority that enjoyed it, in a positive manner.

Hi Mate...thanks for asking! 'Europe's greatest centre forward' is doing very well in his little place down New Mexico way. Him and his two companion pets are enjoying the end of a beautiful, warm Albuquerque summer. His health is good, his car has given him a new lease of independence and he is content. I speak to him about every other day, there is not one call that passes without him mentioning his love and gratitude to Saints fans (not the club, but you lot!!). As our friendship has grown over the years he has opened up more. Ron was very protective of his inner feelings towards Saints and many other things. He is a proud man that has been burned before, yet as the layers of the onion have peeled back his appreciation of the people of Southmpton has become very prominent. For any to young to know, Ron truly was magnificent. IMHO at one time, maybe one of three most effective players on the planet.

The vast majority of posters and readers here are huge Southampton Football Club supporters. We have suffered for quite a while now and there has been a lot of tough times and difficulties to overcome...we don't need to list them and relive frustration, disappointment and negativity. (I am as bad as anyone) Right, we have a new gaffer, our finances seem secure, there are some decent players in place, a great stadium and most of all YOU lot and your magnificent support in numbers and passion. Let's build on this, let's build on a positive rebirth. Be patient with the new boss, tolerant of our fellow fans and display understanding of other Saints viewpoints. If we feel forced or obliged to show hatred or negativity then we should channel it towards opponents, rivals especially pompee ;-) and not our own, not matter how much they get up your nose. Come on everyone, we can do this, we can make this more pleasurable, positive, fun and exciting....Take a breath before reacting, try to think where that poster is coming from and let's have some fun, funny and invigorating dialogue...it doesn't mean we don't disagree...just do it in a more constructive fashion. Under the right circumstances there is nothing better than being a Saints fan. Thank you for tolerating this post, really hope it doesn't seem too much like surmonizing,

Some people just really like to be mean spirited don't they, constantly looking for ulteria motives and what someone is trying to gain. Maybe some of those posters should question their own agendas for such reaction, are we judging others by our own standards. I have known FF longer than virtually anyone on here and we have argued, fought and been good friends - guys, he was just (in his own inimitable fashion) giving you a brief overview of what happened. If you knew him, you'd get it.

Maybe the jury should still be out on the guy, The Galaxy signed three unheard of Brazillians at the start of this season. All three look total pants to start, now one of them Juninho is the team's best performer and the other two Leanardo and Cuzumba are both having positive and significant contributions. I really hope he ends up being a star for us, if not...oh well.

??? Bit early to be drinking mate...

Anyone ends with FACT, rather than anyone that compares WGS in the Prem with Dean 'Jimmy Osmond' Wilkins at the bottom of Div III?? Two words 'Really!!'

Can't remember, did we lose at home twice and to Rochdale and Schwindon???

Dean 'Jimmy Osmond' Wilkins, got to where he is now by association...if he was Ray Weston's brother instead of Ray Wilkins he'd be lucky to be a sponge man in the Commercial Houses league FACT!!

...er HELLO!!...yeah, we're bottom of a p!ss poor Div III. Ted Bates is currently turning in his grave FFS!!

Put y'self in his place Steve, what must be going through his mind? Even the best of pros in his position would struggle to get motivated tbf.
