washsaint Posted 16 June, 2014 Share Posted 16 June, 2014 don't forget we have a s****heap of a club according to Crabs. All falling apart - that's no doubt why a name of the calibre of Koeman signed. Been hysterical watching the overreaction of (quite) a few posters on this board. Hilarious..... Might not work out but a big sign of intent. Lot happier with the current board than with NC as the Napoleon of all around him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Lej Posted 16 June, 2014 Share Posted 16 June, 2014 Sure now would be the perfect time for Crab lungs to reveal all that he knows about how terrible the new board are. He's been promising this expose for weeks but so far nothing. Come on crabbers. Listening to crab lungs over the last couple of weeks has been beyond painful, he's been an utter embarrassment with his comments, which has surprised me as I previously assumed he was one of the more rational posters. In reality he's been even more of a toy thrower than Alpine. Like a child who's had his favourite toy taken away. Pathetically silent since today's news aswell. How convenient.

sadoldgit Posted 17 June, 2014 Share Posted 17 June, 2014 The reaction on here has been quite bizarre, even for this site. We have know for years that the media will say or print what that they like and we need to take it all with a pinch of salt until is it fact. The fact for some time now has been that the manager left and Rickie Lambert left. From this we have had a number of posters convinced that most of the rest of the squad are leaving, the club is run by idiots who dont know what they are doing and that the owner is asset stripping ahead of a sale of the club! It has been beyond bizarre in truth. Fortunately there are a group of people who are not "happy clappers" or "bed wetters" but they have been completely drowned out by those with their glasses half empty who can only ever see the negative in any situation. This place is a psychologists dream. I applaud the Board for their calm and measured responses, the way they have worked behind the scenes to keep the club going in the right direct despite the media storm and the negative attitude of a number of supporters and for delivering a manager of quality to take us forward. We dont know how Ron K will work out but this a a massive statement of intent (and vote of confidence in the club from a quality appointment) and can only be a good thing. We know that the bed wetters will be out in force again the minute that Ron K makes a mistake, which he surely will as he like every other manager we have ever had is only human, but for goodness sakes, lets for once just be happy that the club is still in good shape and still on course for another exciting season in the EPL.

FFS we are all supposed to be Saints fans, think that FACT (another term that gets thrown about a lot to enforce an opinion!) seems to have been forgotten now. The 'game' on here is becomming quite tedious. Just find it quite odd that given we are told that football should be this all consuming emotional part of life by the uberfans - yet they are the first to criticise those that get 'over emotive' when things happen that are beyond our control as fans - and it's this lack of influence that is often the cause of frustration etc. with respect to NC, MP. And RL leaving in sequence and the potential impact on this, not quite sure why some on here don't welcome the debate from both sides... Ultimately, all I am interested in as a fan is to see a commitment to incremental progress- luck plays a huge part in what that means in terms if results, but we can clearly see when a club is 'walk as well as talk'. In our case, I don't believe anyone is wrong to question whether we will hart next season in as a competitive apposition as last. - and even with strong appointment in RK, we are still not sure whether key players will stator go, and who we can be tin...and he'll, before Aug18. unfortunately, ralf did himself and the luck favours when speaking in public -to much business speak that sounded like BS and with RL effectively sold the day after, it left him looking foolish... Even if RLs case was unique, it's the perception it left.. All the infighting guff is the result of those who seem to need this site as a substitute for other pleasure in their lives... As opposed to treating it for what it is, a forum for exchange in opinion... Not serious all the time no, but most don't welcome the constant **** take...

Professor Posted 17 June, 2014 Share Posted 17 June, 2014 Congratulations to all those who posted their concerns on this and other websites. It is important that the fans keep up the pressure on the club management to do everything that is reasonably in their power to move the club forward. That is not achieved by happy clappers who adopt a complacent attitude of unquestioning trust. As Saints' fans we all have the same objective, but those who keep up the pressure will have done their bit in letting the club know that as fans we are hungry for success. If all the club picked up from a scan of message boards was the idea that the fans had complete faith in them whatever they did, the outcome could be different, so well done those who have contributed. When the club do get it right, they deserve to be congratulated as well, even more so of course, and they have come out of the potential manager crisis very well, certainly better than poor old Norwich and WBA. Now we have to see how things develop on the player retention and player replacement front, having only lost one so far. To keep Shaw, Lallana and Lovren may be possible, but to keep them on good terms may be a bigger challenge. If that is achieved, or partly achieved, the new management will have done very well.

pap Posted 17 June, 2014 Share Posted 17 June, 2014 I say this as a total nerd, social recluse, holder of a 10K+ post count. I'll freely admit that my life is f**king boring by most standards. That all said, some people really need to get out more. For me, football is a specialised form of entertainment, another distraction to keep me out of trouble when I'm not doing anything useful. It's specialised because I only really support the Saints; it's also one of the few areas of life which is not decided on best quality. For most Saints supporters, it's an irrational and illogical decision brought about by the accident of being born in or around the city - otherwise we'd be glory boys. Sideshow Bob style, I'm aware of the irony of using the medium of a football forum to decry people on a football forum. To some extent, I suffer from the same problem as yourselves. I'm miserable after a loss, happy after a win and punish the F5 key on transfer deadline day. I'll travel half the country to go to a game, and brother willing, should be pitching up for every home game next year. That, and a bit of debate about the team is enough for me. My level of involvement. Now I'll accept that if you work in the game, football is serious business. I accept that if you like the game, you'll always want to find out more about it, understand it better - some of our best posters do precisely this. My understanding of the game is improved as a result of what they share. That's a far cry from what happens here during a crisis. Worst case scenarios instantly posited and believed. People losing their shít left, right and centre over things that haven't even happened. We've got quite a few posters with absolutely no perspective, and if they get this wound up about something they are so detached from, one can only assume that there isn't a great deal else going on in their lives.

Turkish Posted 17 June, 2014 Share Posted 17 June, 2014 A few things you can learn from this forum is if you don't take it seriously and take the p*ss out of people it's because something is missing from your own life and you lead a sad and miserable existence, probably living in a bedsit somewhere and have a crap job with no social skills. It's absolutely not that case that if you take this place so very, very seriously, using it as a medium to engage in serious debate and voice your opinion, that you're a bit of a sad **** that struggles to cope with real life, perhaps using this place to air your so very important view because no one gives a sh*t about it in the real world. If you can get enraged by things said by people you've never met and resort to putting them on ignore, foul mouth tirades or stop posting all together, then even better, that means you lead a full and interesting life and are an all round great guy.

I've admitted in the past that this place is a dumping ground for stuff I can no longer be arsed discussing with the missus. You're right; she doesn't give a f**k about Saints, my political views or my music tastes. We talk about Game of Thrones and the kids.

One of my all time favourite posts!! So someone who predicted every one of last four or five seasons totally wrongly, thought JayRod and Morgan bad signings, thinks all signings are done at start of window etc etc...classes himself as realistic! Lol, alpine, you are miles away from being a realist. I'm sure even your intellect could follow the evidence.... If, for example, my predictions over the last few years were shown to be correct, and your 100% wrong - surely even you can see the fact, objective not subjective - I have been more a realist than you? Still Happily clapping - if you aren't happy and still spending time following saints you are a fool - life's too short.

It's absolutely not that case that if you take this place so very, very seriously, using it as a medium to engage in serious debate and voice your opinion, that you're a bit of a sad **** that struggles to cope with real life, perhaps using this place to air your so very important view because no one gives a sh*t about it in the real world. If you can get enraged by things said by people you've never met and resort to putting them on ignore, foul mouth tirades or stop posting all together, then even better, that means you lead a full and interesting life and are an all round great guy. It is so difficult to judge the tone of someones post when you only have the words to read and not the tone in which its spoken. Mr Turkish appears to be one of the best at posting on that line between sarcasm / mock seriousness / serious. This is another one of those posts and I think I know what tone he is trying to take with this one. All I would add to this one is that there is nothing wrong as such as taking the p*ss / not taking it all too seriously / taking it seriously - whatever yor preference. For someone who no longer subscribes and only posts occassionally, the main reason is because it all seems to be too many posters 'playing the poster' rather than the post and quite frankly the constant d*ck swinging is so very boring. There was a comment that if moderated properly, these type of posters would be dumped to the muppet show. In my opinion that would be a travesty. As a 'closet lurker' to that section, I tend to find that the regular contributors to the muppet show whether posting there or in the main forum tend to have the best balance. All in my 'not too serious' opinion of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dig Dig Posted 17 June, 2014 Share Posted 17 June, 2014 When do I get to give Fry a reach around? In there a que? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine_saint Posted 17 June, 2014 Share Posted 17 June, 2014 Absolutely agree. Cb may take no prisoners but he is always taking on the insufferable bores, the mentalists, the drunkards and the fantasists so that's absolutely fine by me. The site's biggest WUM pins his colours to the mast of the sites good and great. This thread is surreal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypochondriac Posted 17 June, 2014 Share Posted 17 June, 2014 When do I get to give Fry a reach around? In there a que? Yet people are quite happy to throw all sorts of abuse at the likes of him and Turkish and no one bats an eyelid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
