Mattio Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 Why did they have about 15 minutes talking about nothing then basically showed the goals and that's it?! Surley a waste of air time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him his due, considering he is a dyed in the wool sk8, he has been quite complimentary about our style of play and set up everytime I've seen him this season. He basically said that the fishy few were still working on a Prem team structure including wages, living way above their means and that god knows how many different people owned diffrent parts of the club, ground, car park etc etc....

ant Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 Quite enjoyed our segment to be fair. Showed the club in a good light and I like having a look behind the scenes. The vox pops were pants but then they always are. Less credit to the commentator of our highlights who claimed that it was Martin's second league goal of the season and for them failing to show Lallana's involvement in the build-up to his effort. Ah well, that's what the 'All Angles' coverage on Saints Player is for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank's cousin Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 CLaridge is a pompey fan - but one who is a proper football fan IMHO, so is probably sick to death of the way his club has been run, gained advantage, and then not learned from the mistakes - he said as much during the program. He is complementary of us when we play well enough to deserve it and critical when we dont - but seems almost envious (in a positive way) when looking at how we did all we could to rectify our financial wows in the right way, whereas pompey seemed to ignore the issue - think he mentions that tehy still ahve not paid anything from the last admin and went ahead spening on prem qulaity players - think he is very frustrated that he cant feel proud of them right now... and fair play to him for that. If more of their fans felt that way rather than whinging and moaning that its all someone else fault, that they need loans etc, then maybe they might have had some sympathy from me... as it is they can rot..

Chin Strain Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 Away from goal? hardly....even Paul jewell reckoned that it should of probably been a red I've just watched it again and the forwards touch took him wide out towards the touchline, so IMHO that's a yellow by the book, especially considering how far out the striker was. There was at least one defender who was covering. Going by the natural reaction to a tackle from a keeper like that, I can see why Jewell was relieved, but I don't think from where the striker had poked the ball it was 'denying a clear goal scoring opportunity' (which I think is the rule) - it would have been an unbelievable finish from out there to score, given the covering players.

pedg Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 Good segment I thought. Keeping up the record that all our highlights must start with an exterior shot of St Mary's! Think the BBC are contractually limited on the number of games they can show extended highlights for so segments like that are all about turning the normal short highlights into a longer segment for the program. Pity really only covered for TV by the one camera as would have like to have seen Lee's goal from a different angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 Didn't actually mind the fact that we got so little game coverage. It was nice to get an inside view of the ground before and after, and even the vox pops were pretty good. This is very much the limelight slot of the show. Good to be in it.

I have no problem with Claridge, is very fair to Southampton, and often complimentary. Would rather listen to him any day than the muppets who are usually on MotD. He is at least a genuine footballer who carried on playing as long as he could because he loved it rather than for the money and taking the easy way out and retiring "early" to become a pundit like the Slug Balancer and Hanson.

SuperMikey Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 I liked our little segment last night, thought it was great. Brilliant to see the nice atmosphere at the club, everyone seems really positive and upbeat. Lol'd at Punch trying to get on camera 7 or 8 times... haha! Agree about the Bompey leg break as well, made me wince when I watched it. Never nice to see anyone get seriously injured like that. That Daniel Powell from MK Dons looks handy as well, good movement and finishing. If we didn't already have the plethora of strikers at the club that we do I would say we should get him on the bus...
