anothersaintinsouthsea Posted 8 January, 2014 Share Posted 8 January, 2014 Didn't watch the game, but sat here p*ssing myself at this - He's like a Dad taking his toddler for a kick about and then letting him score whilst pretending to defend.

Chez Posted 8 January, 2014 Share Posted 8 January, 2014 If Wham go down could they do another P***** or is that unique ? Birmingham went down to the third tier and the owners stuck with them, reinvested and brought them back up through the leagues. Much bigger debt this time round. As was the case when west ham were in championship last, the owners can't take the club into admin as the debt is to them, so it's them that lose out. gold and Sullivan simply have no choice but to ride out the storm no matter what happens.

Viking Warrior Posted 9 January, 2014 Share Posted 9 January, 2014 Mr Johnson should go back to doing tv news reporting, West ham will be playing the following tune whenever he gets the ball , The Clash should I stay or should I go but this chant will definatley catch on It's just a jump to the left.

John Boy Saint Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 This is just like "Strachan to be announced as Leeds manager tomorrow" headlines that screamed out at us Saints fans a few years ago. Bugger all is going on in the transfer window and suddenly the once Nasty Nic resigning from "Troubled Southampton" has instantly provided Manna from Heaven for all the lazy bored hacks. Cortese has gone and so has the money as he obviously owned the club lock stock and barrel, bucket against the wall time something is bound to stick.

S-Clarke Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 They do want him, that's pretty much confirmed. Will be interesting to see how this has handled now. £7-8m is an enormous fee for someone of his age, but a replacement would need to be purchased before we should even conciser it.

Barry Sanchez Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 Can't get a replacement without an owner/CEO I wouldn't have thought. I don't want him to go regardless. But if he did, I assume we'd be relying on Osvaldo, JRod, Guly and Gallagher til summer. Which, to be fair, would be fine until then given the points we've already got. Just can't not support Rickie, and can't support West Ham. Tricky. So you believe it now then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ART Posted 15 January, 2014 Author Share Posted 15 January, 2014 If he did go we would certainly need to bring in a striker. That is not a certainty after seeing the video of Billy Sharp sweating his balls off at the club yesterday. We're either about to sell of the likes of Lambert, Oswaldo and Ramirez and make room for the forgotten players or Academy players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgerx16 Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 (edited) ... make room for the forgotten players .... Who are they ? Lee has gone, and Sharp as an EPL striker is not a great deal better than Fox as an EPL left back. Edit - is Lee Barnard still technically a Saint ?

Rebel Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 I have a feeling we'll see a few players leave before the end of January to reduce the wage bill and bring in some money to balance the books as the Liebherrs look to sell the club Osvaldo, Ramirez and Yoshida will probably be out of the door pretty quickly as all 3 seem to want to leave - Yoshida and Gaston to get regular first team football and Osvaldo as he doesn't seem to have settled - and for all 3 World Cup squad places are to play for I just hope we get our money back for them And if West Ham make us a stupid offer for Lambert we'll take the money - and he'll take the salary I think we'll also see Barnard, Sharp and Aaron Martin back in the first team squad until the end of the season - and a lot more of Guly And I wouldn't be surprised if Pochettino and his assistants follow Cortese out of the club after Saturday's game with us either getting a caretaker manager in or Les Reed taking over until the end of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pangy Posted 16 January, 2014 Share Posted 16 January, 2014 Will Rickie really increase his WC chances at WH? he may start more games but will he score the goals? Carroll is back from injury and they have signed Traore so will he get the game time? WH play some awful awful football and will that make him look at better player than at SFC? I don't think it will and I reckon he will play second fiddle to AC who may well end up taking his WC place,Rickie needs to stay with us where he will score goals and play better football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only games he's not started this season are the away games against the best sides and Man City at home I believe? WHU have Carroll back, have just signed C Cole for another 18 months, are signing L Traore, and also heavily linked with A Gyan, I Belfodil and Rickie himself. Obviously they won't all sign for them, but West Ham play 1 up front, and Allardyce won't not play Carroll if he's fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_Tony Posted 16 January, 2014 Share Posted 16 January, 2014 There's plenty of rumours about today, unsurprisingly. I think Lambert, Lallana and J-Rod (if he hasn't given up hope yet) are certainly better off staying here where they are key figures in the team and all performing well. It would be a massive gamble for any of them to go (possibly not Lambert). I expect them to all wait until the summer to decide, because right now nobody really knows what's going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
