I do Agree with this. Also reading the book, MLT gives his reasons why he did not move to Spurs or Liverpool. ( Family/homesick etc). I respect that. However I also have the feeling from reading the book that he knew that he could get away with things at Southampton ( as a big fish in a small pond) that quite frankly he could not get away with in a bigger club. I also think that he revelled in being the star....He mentioned that when he was dropped - he did not worry as when saints lost he knew he would be brouhgt straight back in due to fan pressure etc. Had he gone to liverpool he would have just been one of the players and would lose the "star player" element. He would have to work to get back in the team, train hard and look after his diet. As a saints fan I love MLT. He even once left a ticket for me at an away game as we have sold out and a friend of a friend sorted it for me. However I can see his failings and deep down I think he knows them too - which is why he chose the "easy" option of staying with saints. it does not stop him being a saints hero... just MHO....

I got the book. I Have read it. To be honest, I find it quite Weak. many of the stories are told in a glib manner. Obviously as a saints fan i read teh whole thing, however if I was not a saints fan and wanted to read Le tissier autobiography I would be dissapointed. I also found it interesting hat MLT did not really mention Matt oakley Much. He played loads of games with Te tissier and hardly a word said. they were good mates too. oaks did a lot of the grafting to allow MLT the ability express himself. Also interesting to see MLT's best team from players he played with. jeff Kenna Included?

Hi - I have added a team, Cheers

I think at best he is fouth striker. Will be decent enoough for 5 starts and 20 sub appearances. However if he is our best then we will not get out the relegation zone....

Doble was the worst player I have ever seen in a saints shirt. The following 4 are good enough for the coming season, Murty, Thomas, lalana, Gillett. Molyneaux, patterson and Lanchashie are OK for backup players in div 1. The rest are not good enough for non league. i would have taken some of cheltenhams subs/trial players compared to our team. killer was not at the game either.

Its in the southmidlands/cotswolds. It just off the M5 between bristol & Brum. Around 100 Miles from Saints. From Southampton, M5, A34, M4, A419 Lots of nice young ladies from the college.......

I am pee'd off. I prefer deep depression rather than optimism. I now have to walk with a smile on my face. People are asking me if I am alright. I hate it. To be honest. I am still not happy. I am not happy about the state of Footy. In the 80's saints could challenge/compete in the top league. This will never happen again due to the way the big 4-5 are stangling the game. The game is strangled and fans everywhere are losing interest. The best that saints can hope for in the next 5 years is to get to the premiership and somehow stay there. That is depressing.

Best Game at the Dell: Win, Draw or Lose

The worst was at home to Man city in the branfoot era... terrible match - was over by half time and we were terrible....no worse that that. -

Lets look at it another way. 1) They spent 1M trying to make this deal work 2) Its possible that saints would be wounds up already without that money I cannot condone the death sentence for anyone who has spent £1M trying, unsuccessfully to save the club. They should not rot in hell either for at least trying. Had we had full stadium last year we would a) have more money and b) provided the team a greater level of support. We would be in a better position now. I am not blaming the fans here. But it could be said that these people have done what they could to save the club and yet got slated for it - yet all the fans that stayed away cannot say that they have done all they can. ( general comment - not aimed at you )

Maybe there will be a new bid from "Top flight" or "Callaway" .... Will MLT get eggs thrown at him? .... Will saints ever play at SM Stadium ever again? .... Will this be the end for saints? .... Will Fry be forced to wrap up the club? .... Will saints fans moan and ***** about lowe etc etc .... Will I need a few beers tonight?

I read somewhere that he wanted to move to Notts anyway - so I think its correct he should go - especially as we got 1M+ for him.
