I dont think they could make the play offs for League 1 this season as they are in the Championship, they are having a good go at it though. I suspect they may petition the league to allow them to, after all I think they say Wembley is their home ground

Our fans: loyal and positive, or noddy and soft?

Brilliant, yes youve got it. Add to that the marches, as if anybody at the top even notices or takes any notice. What fans have got to understand that to a degree Solak puts his own money in (not £700 for a season ticket, that is moaned about) I doubt there is a handful of fans who would put their lifesavings/house on the line for the club, because thats what Solak is kind of doing. What is the saying how do you make a multi millionaire into a millionaire, buy a football club -
I think he should only ever do Radio interviews, Quasimodo would have a better chance with the ladies.......that's my hunch anyway

Linaker saying expansive and stylish football, am I missing somethong? As that is not what I saw it as !!
-
MG you are usually very cutting, Im worried you are going soft lol. It was like a party political forecast, no tough questions. Tyically of Linaker he went along and said Shearer was critical, so was he talking about all the mistakes to goals etc. and critical of us. Put up his win percentage for every team he has managed and the goals conceded column. He is as smooth as it comes but to tell us that he was getting it right is a complete falsehood. I look at him all calm and happy, me knowing he has taken 10M plus from the club all in the name of his own vanity project. Champions league ffs Oh thanks for the summary BTW it would have taken time to do so

they are both woke luvvies and so will have got on well

People are poking fun at us, yes but most are sympathetic to the fans and what weve gone through and repect that we turn up in numbers. Many clubs this season have been seen as jokes, all apaart from Ipswich of the failing clubs who seem to be immune from it. Whilst Im born and bred in Southampton and very proud of it ( I dont live there now) but when I return to our fine city Iam appalled how/what it has become. A shodow of what it was 30 or so years ago. When I was growing up Soton was quite a nicecity and Pompeythe dump, now it seems the roles have reversed -

BP So what has it achieved what Leicester did? I would feel that the players may feel mre guilty how we reactwheras they may feel f''''you tp foxfans -
Yep he is correct, shame he couldnt impliment it , or we gt somebody who can
-
wow Turks has really gone left field with this man Rohl, has he been linked?
-
Augusto Delgado returning, I did hear a rumour of that
-
FFS Turks are you for real. My story from inside the Saints dressing room when he arrived, he came in and handed Pardew his book about coaching. That went straight into the bin in the players dressing room as he walked out lol

Im not sure the club will risk increasing ticket prices (but you never know) I suggest they will keep prices the same with the 'there are more home games next season' -
especially as I read that SR have taken note of Frank Lampard !!!

and you would have been dancing up Wembley way with those same players names on your lips. Yes wehave been crap, but the players have been absolutely been scarred by this season and in the main have tried. Im obviously a soppy git as I usually await the final whistle and apart from a few games I have clapped them off. Not after the hammerings but generally they have coped with poor management and lack of skill, but that doesnt mean they dont need to be appreciated. -
I feel you are out of order calling those players gutless clowns , they may not be the most talented but they had the fibre to get us up on the red hot pressure of the play oofs. Be unkind for their ability but their courage cannot and should not be faulted IMO

And where does it get them? apart from leaving as sour atmosphere. I will never forget howbad it waas when I saw our own fans fighting amongst ourselves in the Northam in thelate days of Rupert. It made no difference butjust made a toxic atmosphere that helped none of us -
Hes not Pedigree, Chum.............see what I did there lol

The only people who can flick 3 V signs at you using just the one hand

Oops Martin you were right!!!
-
No prize as it woud have been ridiculous to not have tried an experienced manager. It didnt work as Juric had the players yearning for Russ back and their total messed up minds as the muscle memory of playing negative pass back football. I hope Ruskcan somehow work his magic to get oneor 2 more points
-
Sadly he looked as if he was living on the streets most of the time, but I liked his honesty and he didnt hold back
-
We had 2 otherbids he turned down. I was tod one was the Burnley new owners, so that would be crap and the other had some sort of connection to a French side that was folded.
