Wes Tender Posted 17 February, 2011 Share Posted 17 February, 2011 I love how people compare really cr*p chairmen with ours as if that then means we can excuse ours every time we feel there is room for improvement. Not at all. We ought to realise that in many ways we are lucky that we are run by professional people instead of these idiots like Mitchell. Don't you think that we are lucky? Or would you prefer this "shoot from the lip" approach typified by this petty little story, which is probably only in print to feed the ego of a total non-entity?

Dalek2003 Posted 17 February, 2011 Share Posted 17 February, 2011 They are having their season in the sun and i don't blame them making the most of it. For years they were the poor relation on the South Coast and if i were them i would love looking down on the saints. The only way to put things right is by putting things right on the pitch and getting back to the premier league...this is what counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Fan CaM Posted 17 February, 2011 Share Posted 17 February, 2011 A classic example of shouting your mouth off before engaging the brain. He's obviously not considered the fact that by inviting more Saints supporters into his Boardroom, he is very quickly becoming extremely outnumbered. I for one encourage him to invite as many as possible as he will look a complete twit when we win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of the way that both clubs are run and the performances of both Chairmen, I'd say that Cortese was outperforming Mitchell hands down. Would you rather have Mitchell? Of course I wouldn't rather have Mitchell, but football clubs are judged on results and at the moment, given the resources they have, Bournemouth have WAY out performed Saints, even if we win our games in hand (which we might not). We have spent more than any other League 1 club, Bournemouth have sold 3 of their best players and hardly spent a penny - mid-table would have been a good achievement for them this season. If Cortese had us in 2nd spot, having not spent a penny, cashed in on 3 of our best players and promoted a player to manager he would be being hailed as a genius.

Saint_John Posted 18 February, 2011 Share Posted 18 February, 2011 Mitchell was on the TV program about Sandbanks a couple of years ago. IMO he "talks up" the value of properties all the time. He even showed Piers Morgan around "Thunderbirds" WHICH IS 2 MILES AWAY from Sandbanks in Branksome Park and had nothing to do with Sandbanks. http://primetime.unrealitytv.co.uk/sandbanks-with-piers-morgan/ Eddie Mitchell – the property developer responsible for innovative creations such as Thunderbird – a five bedroom copper roofed semi-circular dream home on the market for £3.25 million – is being met with ripples of resentment from some Sandbanks old timers, who are concerned about the pressure they say such development is putting on local amenities, as well as worries about it spoiling the area’s original character. (read the comments from other people in that link and you will understand what the locals think of him). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we are lucky to not have Mitchell and Cortese has quite a few positives. Not sure why you think I would prefer the Mitchell approach, I don't think I gave that impression anywhere in my first comment. There are negatives to the Cortese approach and maybe in some smaller areas he could learn from Mitchell (FULLY emracing club history for one.)

sfc4prem Posted 18 February, 2011 Share Posted 18 February, 2011 Mitchell is personally outperforming Cortese is he? So they both mange the team now? Cortese can only do so much, it's down to the manager as to where we are in the league. Same goes for Mitchell. It's not his doing that they're in second, it's Eddie Howe's and their gang spirit. Cortese is so much better in terms of progressing the club infrastructure and squad, but he's obviously got his flaws, one being PR and how to deal with "legends". How someone can say they'd rather have Mitchell is mental. Anyway, we really have to perform well purely to ram it down Mitchell's throat. Few anti-Mitchell songs methinks.

No one has said they would rather have Mitchell but the success of a football club is judged by how well the team is doing, not by what buildings have been built. The Chairman is ultimately responsible for that success because he chooses the manager, creates the environment for him to work in and signs the cheques for the players. I am more than happy with how things are going at Saints, just think Bournemouth have done very well and it's only fair Mitchell should take credit for that Edited 18 February, 2011 by aintforever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guan 2.0 Posted 18 February, 2011 Share Posted 18 February, 2011 Every time I read their message board it makes me feel sick. I don't think Saints fans are arrogant (as we are often accused) but any fan can be forgiven for flicking the V's at Portsmouth's retarded brother, dribbling out Scummer insults at every opportunity trying to get attention. They deserve a massive, massive hammering. I think to a certain degree we are, as a collective. With nearly 25 consecutive years in the top flight, the advent of moving from a 'ground' to a stadium, One of the most talented players in the modern game, suffering two rapid succesions, then being saved by a Billionaire and a determined chairman. It has the right mix of historical pride, new expectations, and then sudden despair before great expecations and looking to be be above where we have been even in our 'glory' days. All this while in a league conataining teams with low crowds, crumbling stadia, and minimal budgets. This adds up to many taking the 'we will walk this league' approach, as it's still new to the majority of saints fans. That's why any negative comments on other boards (sometimes for other teams 'daring' to say that they might beat us) are linked and set upon. This thread is proof ."That Bompey idiot, he thinks we care about them, let's create a thread about the subject to show how much we don't care" . I don't think it's right, but I see how it can happen. I Also can see why other fans think we are arrogant. For my part, I think we can win this league, only 70% sure we will though. I think we'll come second, with bournemouth's lack of depth costing them close to the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
