Heisno doubt a hard worker but he is typical product of ourclub in themidfield area, runs around a lot, doesnt make a killer passand has no physiche or pace. Even the Arsenal keeper outpaced him over 50 yards lol. He has done well earning 100k pw by looking decent in a poor Saints team, he left at the first opportunity, like Ings and all the other arses who we believe love the club but we weak minded fools fall for it time and agian. That includes me,

I doubt many players are going to show improvement after 8 weeks, RM had 18 months or so and I cant think of any who upped their standard. You believe the players were keen on the playing out of the bacjk style, but to me they lost faith as it takes only so many times to be caught playing out and conceding until they like the fans lost faith.

Im of the mind that we can cut off our nose, or not worship but let him contribute which is good for us all
-
Im going to accept him back in te fold and not boo him. We need him and want him to do well, it for all our benefit
-
but not a PL side I suspect
-
Having a strong manager who ruffles feathers is not a bad thing, not sure there has ever been a top manager who hasn't had steel and weeded out the flowers. Pampered multi millionaire kids ae hard to get through to I suspect these days
-
Fair point, but the Northam generated the noise and atmosphere to get that going. Stuff the standing by the away fans, let the Northam mature into what is should have been since day 1, our end
-
Saturday, when we scored the Northam sounded awesome and the Bournemouth team and fans wilted a bit. I was at the other end of the stadium and the noise was brilliant. We just need stuff to lift us. Te away fans have been moved, get over it. Longterm it will be a benifit
-
Yep they sung until they got nervous as they thought we were going to get a 2nd. Once they got a 3rd they were full of it again. Only thing was they did join in the minute applause, that was decent. They were pretty quiet outside the ground after the game

I now live in Salisbury and went in by train Saturday. Most if not all were working people who went in. All this 'working class' crap gets on my nerves. Gone are the days of urchins queing up and jumping over the walls to get in, nowadays the kids are chuby little sods who have grown up on MacDonalds meals and pot noodles. The majority want to sit at home on their ipads or play stations and dont want to go and watch football. Times have changed from the days when I was kicking a washing up liquid bottle around Shirley school playground as nobody could afford a ball, or in the middle of the street. Now unless they have an all weather pitch and the latest boots there's no way they will set foot out the door. A 'working class' kid doesnt love Saints anymore than a middle class or upper class kid if they get the bug. My grand-daughter travels the country watching Saints and her life is centred around our team. I saw on Xa fan claining to have punched a load of Cherries fans, I assume he should get the red carpet treatment, as that is the only difference I can see is that of a working class kid ( if thats how you want to brand them) and one who takes the time and cost to travel a long way.

Why would we contemplate giving them more tickets???? Having 2k+ of them is a headache enough for the authorities. I fuly expect the clu to not sell season tackets in the margins closest to the away fans as the attendances will be lower next season. Give them the minimum as we only will get 1500 i susect at theirs. No way can yourely on the fans to not be segregated and will need a bubble, but you never know. Sadly the hatred on both sides is too much for it not to happen. Personally I dont hate them, jsut like the banter but not the violence
-
A couple of things, McCarthy did 2 saves early that made a massive diference to the night. The quality of the team comparedto now, with the grit in midfield and of course quality upfront
-
Not many players in the Championship earning 100K, I wonder why
-
I think you are correct but RM did have his name on signing him. Wood also (who looks ok )
-
But surely Frazer, Downes, THB were very much ones that RM pressed for? He basically gave WHU the easiest uplift in a players value they could wish for, when he was caling for it the day after the Wembley game
-
Aren't the always
-
your e get your wish sooner than you expect lol
-
You have to take into account that the club did not buy anybody and so he has been left with the tatered rabble who could only get 6 points until his arrival. I fail to see how we will bounce back up, that many fans were confident we would do so. As time goes on I really am feeing that Semmens did us a major disservice by choosing these jokers instead of the 2 other bids who were going to offer us more. We were in the PL then and had we had a proper owner may well have settled the boat and we stayed up, rather than the rubbish these charlatans have brounght on us
-
Juric will not suffer fools, and he says whats he believes. He is not scared of upsetting egos and will act accordingly. It is interesting that the main RM buddies are not playing

Trump on whether he would deport Prince Harry lol “I don’t want to do that,” the president said. “I’ll leave him alone. He’s got enough problems with his wife. She’s terrible.”
-
Apparently shes never noticed
-
This is the only way you could find the scores in the 'old days' we would sit expectantly waiting for our score to come in... This is what we had in the day

Supporting Saints since the late 1960's, I feel our club has suffered the humiliation of more massive defeats than any other. It seems to be in our DNA. The first I remember is Everton away 8-0 circa 1970, my brother came back from his paperround (days before any news , only got it from the World of Sport ITV or Grandstand BBC) and he asked me what was the score as it was half time and I told him it was 5-0 he didnt believe me lol Same season 7-0 Leeds away (always beng played as was on MotD) Ipswich was a 7-1 Charlton 7 (it may have been 6) Watford 7-0 Liverpool was it 7-1 and of course the 2, 9-0 games. Im sure there are more that my mind has tried to blank out !!
