TijuanaTim Posted 15 September, 2010 Share Posted 15 September, 2010 The vast majority of posters and readers here are huge Southampton Football Club supporters. We have suffered for quite a while now and there has been a lot of tough times and difficulties to overcome...we don't need to list them and relive frustration, disappointment and negativity. (I am as bad as anyone) Right, we have a new gaffer, our finances seem secure, there are some decent players in place, a great stadium and most of all YOU lot and your magnificent support in numbers and passion. Let's build on this, let's build on a positive rebirth. Be patient with the new boss, tolerant of our fellow fans and display understanding of other Saints viewpoints. If we feel forced or obliged to show hatred or negativity then we should channel it towards opponents, rivals especially pompee ;-) and not our own, not matter how much they get up your nose. Come on everyone, we can do this, we can make this more pleasurable, positive, fun and exciting....Take a breath before reacting, try to think where that poster is coming from and let's have some fun, funny and invigorating dialogue...it doesn't mean we don't disagree...just do it in a more constructive fashion. Under the right circumstances there is nothing better than being a Saints fan.

lordswoodsaints Posted 15 September, 2010 Share Posted 15 September, 2010 Sounds good to me Tim. Some people on here think that just because you have a different opinion that you wish the saints to fail just to prove your point. I don't agree with the appointment of Adkins but I'm still 100% behind him because I want saints to succeed. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TijuanaTim Posted 15 September, 2010 Author Share Posted 15 September, 2010 In light of the link you posted Tim is there any update on how Ron is doing? Hi Mate...thanks for asking! 'Europe's greatest centre forward' is doing very well in his little place down New Mexico way. Him and his two companion pets are enjoying the end of a beautiful, warm Albuquerque summer. His health is good, his car has given him a new lease of independence and he is content. I speak to him about every other day, there is not one call that passes without him mentioning his love and gratitude to Saints fans (not the club, but you lot!!). As our friendship has grown over the years he has opened up more. Ron was very protective of his inner feelings towards Saints and many other things. He is a proud man that has been burned before, yet as the layers of the onion have peeled back his appreciation of the people of Southmpton has become very prominent. For any to young to know, Ron truly was magnificent. IMHO at one time, maybe one of three most effective players on the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio Saint Posted 15 September, 2010 Share Posted 15 September, 2010 Great first post!! It reminded me just how bruised and battered I am (As we all are) following the turmoil of the last few years. It seems to have lasted forever! Then the post about Ron brought me quickly back to remembering just how great is was to be a Saints fan until a few years ago. I truly hope that this is the rebirth of times like we had in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint in Paradise Posted 6 October, 2010 Share Posted 6 October, 2010 Look your team lost, get over it and go away back to your board. You have another chance later on this season. Every team in the World moans about penalties awarded against them but you have to just grow up and act like an adult and accept it. Acting like a twelve year old, as you appear to be, doesn't work so as I said go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the game with the thought that I wouldn't be ****ed off if we lost but ran them close, but we got it completely wrong and threw 3 points away, putting more pressure on this Saturday's game.
