Paul Jewell on Southampton

He slated us when we dicked them. Don't care what others think. He is right though.

 

He said that they made us look like Real Madrid at times....wrong on two counts - more like Brazil and we made ourselves look that good in that game.

 

Still have the 'Bra-zil..we are the South Coast Brazil' ringing in my ears..we were unplayable at times that night and I really believe that we have matured since then . Jewell is playing simple-scouser mind games and we should not take them in any way lightly but we should have enough to see them off.

To be fair, their defence was an absolute shambles that night, and it was proven to not be a one-off for them as four days later they shipped 7 at Peterborough.

"The top 2 have probably got the 2 biggest wage bills"

 

Leicester? Birmingham?

Birmingham's would have been higher at the start of the season, not so sure now they've moved on a load of their higher earners. Add Pompey to that list as well before they decided to stop paying the wages.

Well West Ham definitely do. Not sure about us, but we won't be too far off the top, lots of contracts upgraded around the summer, Cork was offered high wages to come here as well I believe.

I'd wager that our salary mass for players and coaches was far higher than Pompey's once we'd signed Jos and Fox and might have been at least equivalent even before then. A lot of lads are rumoured to make a lot of money at SMS, especially with the start to the season that we had, the old win bonuses must have been a weighty sum.
