Southampton's 5 Best and Worst Transfer Signings of the Past 15 Years
JPTCount replied to Rebel's topic in The Saints
Bit harsh on a 22yo loan signing.... -
Just came across this site, potentially a useful reference. The cupboard is bare at the moment... http://aviewfrommyseat.com/search/?q=southampton&q_venue=&set=venues

Can't really see it happening here, they'd have to buy us out first. And we don't have a history of franchising, would only go as far as sponsorship imo. More likely we would be entry into the league, and they'll sponsor a bigger team once they see the roi.

t how many in the starting line up, or first choice? Or playing in their favoured position?

You can't purchase games second hand on steam... Games are so cheap no one cares!

i7 is complete overkill, the i5 is better for your needs. If youve got i actually bought the same sumsung unit about 8 months ago but with lower specs, i5, 6GB Ram, 500GB HDD. cost just over £400, and it copes with traktor.... you really don't need anything else to browse the web and play a few games pap sounds like the out of date IT systems manager at work

I'm not part of the group who don't care about when the money runs out, just pointing out that our investment so far has more than yielded a profit. we are already spending on infrastructure too, and development. Obviously there is a line where you have to stop throwing money at something but we havnt reached that point yet. In a few seasons we can judge but you can be equally speculative towards both outcomes, CL would bring in so many more millions, versus bankruptcy. Jack walker blew his fortune! And the club are in a much better position now than had he not been involved. He's been dead 13 years so you really can't blame him for venkis. And even with the best laid plans people will come in and change stuff, unless you can leave ur man with the plans -

but we havnt just thrown money at the problem so far, we've spent wisely. lambert and fonte were huge signings but look how far they've carried the team. Even Jay rod has come good this year, and certainly justified his price tag. £6m looks a snip now. gaston still divides opinion.... It's hard to compare us to other clubs who have done this, chairmen who have pumped money in, chelsea already had european football, city were in financial disarray but had a new stadium, pompey just didn't spend on infrastructure, wigan don't have the support, al fayed got bored, and most of the rest dont have a clue about football but have bottomless pockets (blackburn & qpr). the good are far too far between, but they have been good solid businessmen. like madjeski, rather than keep pumping money in, he took a good offer and sold up. same with manderic. and the best money pumping chairman has to be jack walker, born in the city, built a new stadium, won a league title and made a stonking profit on alan shearer. When u look at the whole picture we come in better than alot of clubs before u add in Cortese. Pumping money is not a business plan, and we have no idea really how he runs his operation. The man behind the means is much more important than the means itself, delivery of the same methods from two people can Wilde very different results. I think the day out at wembley really made him think about the potential the club has. If the alternative is going back to being a profitable mid table premiership team, then i'd rather have this... Even if we go bankrupt again it's been an amazing ride, far more exhilarating than the first time we did it. There are no certainties in football, in NC we trust. -
give targett a debut, nothing to loose

exactly, just like sheff wed at home this season. was so much better with just the real fans in, proves we only need a 10000 seater stadium
-
i think most of u are missing the point, this is to give kids who have had their future ripped up a chance at experience & qualifications to keep them in the game, as a player or otherwise. it's also investing in a local college that do vocational courses. so much more than just trying to make sure no1 slips under the radar, or making a quick sell on to a l2 club.

They use EEs network, along with t mobile and was with the latter until recently and the data is slow, especially in well populated areas. Now with three and I get 6mbps in rural Hampshire, and 18mbps in London, works out cheaper too

is this because you feel you can't work a full week over 65, or work don't think your up to it, or because you feel you're entitled to it? genuinely curious, as i will probably be well into my 70s before i will be able to claim a state pension, if it even still exists then
