The Kraken Posted 27 March, 2014 Share Posted 27 March, 2014 Rickie made Mediawatch on F365. "Laugh Out Loud Rickie Lambert has been talking at length about Southampton's top four hopes (yes, really), but one of his quotes really made us giggle: "We (Southampton) aimed for fourth this season and people laughed at us but they didn't laugh when we were second. They waited until we dropped a bit." So essentially Lambert's saying that people laughed at Southampton, then briefly stopped, but resumed once they realised they were right to laugh. It actually gets worse than that for Lambert, because Southampton haven't been second at any point this season. So people have just been laughing non-stop."

Barry Sanchez Posted 27 March, 2014 Share Posted 27 March, 2014 I'd rather our players ,manager & CEO were talking of reaching the CL than aiming for mid table mediocrity.Aim high even if we don't achieve it still set your sights for the top. Even if the person/fans they are telling it to does not believe a single word out their traps? Its plainly overeaching and they must be thinking why on Earth are they saying such crap. The proof will be in the pudding when we have a chance to buy top quality players this summer to advance our aims towards the Champions League......

Not everyone gets off on the negatives ....Everton have 'banged on' about getting in to the CL season after season whenever they have an outside chance (but that doesn't suit your point of this minute..although it might given a few more seconds...hang in), why shouldn't they...who's fragile and precious enough to let it affect their support of their club ffs? Do you not dare show your face outside because you think people may be talking about it. I do know you're a WUM, I do know that you have multiple deluded forum personalities but sometimes I join in with calling you a 'rhymes with punt' because it can't be repeated often enough...now - off you go to therapy and act out the roleplay of doubling people's money!

Exactly that. When I was running I used to aim to be an Olympic runner. I never made it of course but the aspiration definitely lifted me higher than I would have been if I just aimed to beat the loppo Alton kid whose feet pointed out when he ran.

Classic thread! I still get confused, saintsweb=fans message board, fan= support, like, biased towards, devoted, fanatical,*"marked by excessive enthusiasm and often intense uncritical devotion".* But majority of threads contain Barry, turkey, Glasgow, cb etc criticising posters for being positive, biased, devoted, optimistic etc guess will never understand their need to be a virtual character. They have been underperforming recently! Everton, 6th last year, with 6th highest wage bill, sit in 5th. On target to beat last season by 1 place and 9 points have done great. Saints, 14th last season will improve by 5,6, or 7 places with one of lowest wage bills. On target to increase points by 14 not a great season??? No one is laughing at MP, apart from muppets on here who would prefer Rednapp or Allardyce (Alps and turkey big fans). He is highly thought of and his comments were seen a refreshingly ambitious not negatively accepting things have to stay the same. There seems to be an inferiority complex looking in awe at 'big' clubs. Let yourself go and enjoy, be excited, be optimistic..... Its what fans do!

tpbury Posted 28 March, 2014 Share Posted 28 March, 2014 My old gran used to say that you shouldn't set your ambitions too high, so you wont get disappointed. This is the attitude we need at the club. My Gran should be CEO, except she's dead. Wouldn't find talk of Champions League from her, it would be 16th and a nice cup of tea.
