East Kent Saint

Re Barca , totally agree the end of the match was fixed ! dodgy pen , extra time etc but no mention of this in reports just fantastic comeback etc even worse than ManU bias or Liverpool Bias in the 80's .

Seen at normal speed it looked very much like an accident , Mings was trying to jump over Rooney and Ibra.... in the aftermatch interviews both players said stuff happens and they were happy to leave it at that so it could mean they both meant it and wanted to get away with it !!!

Us with dodgy knees soon get weary of getting up to see the action when the ball gets near the penalty area !!! Standing or sitting is OK but constant up and down is a killer for me . I find people who want to stand just to some how buck the system pretty irritating but not as irritating as ManU getting a late winner or their fans more concerned with jumping round and round with total disregard to the events on the pitch !!!!

off to Saudi Arabia !!!! Hooray !!!! might find making the wrong decision has different outcome over there !!!

Leicester managed to hang on to their forwards but seem to really miss Kante plus Mahrez has fallen apart since his move didn't happen in the summer. Vardy looked out of sorts after not moving to Arsenal but the team are not playing as well this season leaving him isolated up front . At the back Huth and Morgan look slow and their defence looks porous like ours ! So hanging on to players is not the answer but refreshing the team is but not wholesale big name transfers that don't get played a la Man U under Van G .

Well it does seem that the club is trying to do just enough until someone else comes along with cash .

As little of our game is usually shown on MotD can anyone tell me if the other 6 shots on goal (from BBC stats) were actual chances of a goal ? Like Liverpool at the moment we seem to have all the possession , more shots etc but less actual goals !

It's looking like any club that is for sale , ie minimum investment in new players , leave that to the new owners/partners to sort out if/when they take over !

So the diamond didn't work for Leicester either ! They could have made a game of it if Grey had ever tried to pass to Vardy rather than shoot from distance.

The idea really was that certain comments have been the accepted truth ie Koeman didn't play youngsters , Morgan moved from Saints for Champions League football at Man U and is now saying he is moving to Everton because they aspire to CL ! Man C would win the Prem as they got rid of safety first Pell and installed Guardiola who for the first few games the "bees knees" Finally top 6 teams could buy and keep the top players unlike mid table Saints etc ...

BTW the first two points were truth !!!!

From the picture in todays paper Forster couldn't move fast enough to save the free kick because his shorts are too tight !

Koeman plays 4 youngsters and thrash City ,Morgan joins Everton as they have Champions League ambitions , Guardiola needs to overhaul his whole squad as they can't score and their goalkeeper can't stop shots , Chelsea can't hang on to their players as they don't have enough ambition / pay their players enough /don't invest in top players .

er what do you think caused the Bosman ruling which gave the players the upper hand ?? Yes clubs dropping players then stopping paying them while retaining the players registration !!!!! The players were then unable to earn a living from football which led to the " restraint of trade" ruling known as the Bosman ruling. re Payet BTW !

Selling the club could well be worse than present situation . There are are few buyers that have the club in their hearts , they see it as an opportunity for themselves or their governments. Man C are a public relations stunt now , Chinese investors are , like Russian investors, are trying to export their wealth while pleasing their rulers at home. There are numerous examples of dodgy investors in clubs like Chelsea , Leeds , Cardiff etc.

Players putting in a transfer request usually have an offer (via agent) lined up already , so where does he think he's going ? My bet is Everton .

If we are well depressed how are our team feeling now ? Hoping they can pick themselves up better than I'm managing !

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38466511 Our other favourite ref now trying to get on the gravy train !!!

Is Morgan as good as we think ? hardly played at Man U or for France since leaving St Marys.

Puel also thought our build up was too slow and we were lacking in the final third so he at least agrees with us !!!

Sturridge is NOT what is needed , he had a good run but that is now history and he has been mainly injured since then . He did well with Suarez etc but has rarely looked good or played much since.

Hopefully he watched Vardy on MotD so will know how to do it, mind you it also means the midfield getting the ball forward quickly ...............

I always thought that a release clause meant the minimum that a player could be let go for so once he was off he would then be sold to the highest bidder ???

Do you think "the big six" will continue to fork out for Saints players that fail to improve/make the first team or even the first team bench after being transfered ?

Even so he set up at least 2 chances yesterday , he's not as bad as people are saying on here (IMHO)
