whelk Posted 12 September, 2011 Share Posted 12 September, 2011 I'm relatively new to the forum, not new to Saints. Seems like a bit of history between some posters and much point scoring off each other. Lots of very intelligent knowledgeable posters although many arrogant aggressive disrespectful types as well. I'd probably put myself more towards the latter mind. With so many 'you clearly know nothing about football........' responses as would expect on a forum but football being what it is no one gets it right everytime and even top managers make clangers. Anyone remember Mourinho - "why would we ned to sign Wayne Rooney wwhen we have declining to make a move for around £25mill when he left Everton. Was wondering if anyone want to remind us of their own posts that in hindsight have turned out stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brussels Saint Posted 12 September, 2011 Share Posted 12 September, 2011 In our Champ relegation season, I saw a photo of Michael Svensson winning a towering header in a pre season warm-up (against Celtic I think) and wisely commented "don't worry we'll be alright". Just call me the Oracle. Btw bit disappointed this thread has only 14 replies. Come on TSW regulars you ALL have made yourself look an arse at some point. Fess up, its carthartic!

The Kraken Posted 12 September, 2011 Share Posted 12 September, 2011 not really...able to laugh at myself.. A shame others aren't really.

farawaysaint Posted 12 September, 2011 Share Posted 12 September, 2011 Didn't have to look too far back in my own.... Scared to delve deeper now "Fully expect Brum to win the league, as they have a Europa place they're unlikely to lose any apart form their best 2 or 3 players and that money coupled with the parachutes I expect to be invested immediately to achieve promotion to the prem. If they don't go up this season however they won't be nearly as intimidating next year." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowgli Posted 12 September, 2011 Share Posted 12 September, 2011 To be honest I have far more confidence in the future of Saints since Lowe returned and I suspect that the banks have a similar view.

Fan The Flames Posted 12 September, 2011 Share Posted 12 September, 2011 I thought Burley was a good coup, but I was also excited about the double dutch that almost happened at the same time. I thought Woodward was a good idea and I backed the Wilde chairmanship. I thought Scott MacDonald was going to be a big goal scorer for us and I also told my mate that Peter Taylor will be the next Man U manager (I still could be right on that one I guess).
