  1. I have just posted "Southampton's European Roster Issues." http://redsloscf.blogspot.co.uk/ http://redsloscf.blogspot.com/
  2. like last summer? Which is what I would do if I were Jack Cork. But I am American and believe in free agency for athletes.
  3. I googled "absolute trevor" and this was at the top of the list. http://www.nunesmagician.com/2014/11/12/7187429/su-basketball-trevor-cooneys-crossroads
  4. Trolling is beneath you. And don't tell me what I can respond to or I will blog about you again.
  5. I think it is true that we don't see all that interested in buying English players. But they are overpriced for their value so, unfortunately for Southampton fans who like the idea of fielding a mostly English squad, we are going to be buying foreign and selling English more often than the reverse. Keep in mind that Schneiderlin counts as a home grown English player for roster purposes so his value will be inflated too.
  6. And fortunately, Paul Mitchell was not involved with that part of the process.
  7. Did you edit your game to raise all your coaches' stats above 20?
  8. After they win a game 8-0 rather than after they lose one 0-5.
  9. Since we don't know when we are going to be relegated next, it is kind of difficult to predict why. That being said, I will boldly predict that the next time Southampton gets relegated it will be because we have stopped doing certain things we are now doing or failed to start doing new things that we should have realized needed to be done. And good sports science might be one or both of those things. But it might not. Also, I think vacuumed microfibers might also be bad for the lungs.
  10. He is not good enough for your Telford. Also, wouldn't he be too old by then.
  11. FM 2015 CA 137 PA 153 Best stats: Flair 17, vision 17, Technique 17, First Touch 16 Worst stats: Long throw 6, marking 6, Heading 7, Tackling 8, Positioning 8 They do not think he is exceptionally fast with a Pace 11 and Acceleration 13. They think he is a good shooter with both Composure and Finishing rated at 14. As always, this is a 100 percent accurate depiction of reality which no one should consider second guessing.
  12. I have removed this post because I was just causing trouble and I am not sure it was even funny.
  13. We are attempting to create a new weight for ourselves. If not this year, then when will we be able to do it.
  14. I addressed this issue in my blog. http://redsloscf.blogspot.com/2015/01/doom-and-gloom.html
  15. I think you are too optimistic about the worst, but 80 points will be more than enough.
  16. Its 105 million over for the Premier League. It is a lot less if you want to play in Europe--45 million euros over three years. I think it was made clear that management wanted sustainability by which they meant no more money in. Liebherr probably will still put money in rather than have the club have real financial problems. Not in the premier league. That is how FFP works in League One and League Two. The premier league has a wage cap which is complicated but for us it is 56 million pounds this year, plus any net player trading profit from this year, plus any increase in non-TV revenue over last year. This is player wages only--not the entire staff so the officially published wages costs overstate the wages for salary cap purposes. See this site: http://www.financialfairplay.co.uk/financial-fair-play-explained.php It is not that bad Bearsy--maybe you intended that to be partially a joke. It is, however, very unlikely that all of last summer's sales were for immediate cash in full. Remember also that we are still making payments on our incoming transfers from prior years.
  17. It wouldn't be that simple in FM either.

    Tonny Vilhena

    There is nothing to worry about. We are grooming Dave Watson to take over for Ron Koeman and all the players like him except for Forster, oddly enough.
  19. Redslo

    Long injured

    Who's going to fit into the clean up spot in our lineup then and will they have the patience not to swing their foot at the first ball they see?

    Tonny Vilhena

    It might even be true.
  21. Redslo

    Long injured

    If he is healthy, Toby will play striker.
  22. I have just posted "I Make Predictions (Round 23)."
  23. I guess that is an advantage I have as a recent convert. Sure, why not. At least we should have the ambition to get out of the group phase.
  24. I view it more like renting a room at a cheap motel for two hours and then deciding I wanted to rent it for another hour only to be told that it is not available but I can rent a different room. That is the better metaphor. No wait. That is an analogy. Nevermind.
  25. I don't agree. It would be inconvenient for our club, but he signed a four year contract. There is nothing wrong with fulfilling that contract and then looking for a new contract with whomever. He has no moral obligation to allow Southampton to gather the financial benefit of his future playing efforts. He is entitled to keep them to himself by signing on a free.
