Lighthouse Posted 28 July, 2014 Share Posted 28 July, 2014 Personally I'm going to go and support the few remaining players who do actually want to be here. By which I mean the ones who aren't good enough to get a move to a Champions League club. They all would if they could it's not something new. I'll save my boycotting for the start of the season. If we haven't spent a fair chunk of the £115m we've sold or selling by then I wont be going to the West Brom game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxstone Posted 28 July, 2014 Share Posted 28 July, 2014 Boycott the game ! Why??? We are going through a major transition in terms of Manager, Players and if my guess is correct, potentially an owner too. All of the current fog may well clear to see a very sunny day the other side - So a so caled "boycott" would just be plain dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nexstar Posted 28 July, 2014 Share Posted 28 July, 2014 Oh do me a favour. It's pretty clear that in the next month we're going to spend a dump load of money. Am I happy that the first team has be ripped apart? Obviously not. But the money we've got for the players we've sold has been top drawer. The top-level directors haven't executed themselves as well as they could have, clearly, but we're still in the Prem, have a decent shell of a squad and we're about to spend 10's of millions on new players. Boycott games? Shut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Tender Posted 28 July, 2014 Share Posted 28 July, 2014 When are you back at school, Simo? I believe that it's a few days after the transfer window closes. If your bladder can make it until then, you should be alright once you get back into the school routine. I'm going and if the wettest fans like you and SaintRichmond are boycotting, the atmosphere should be even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm ready for the abuse) I would have thought that you need to do quite the opposite and show your support. Fill the ground for the Leverkusen game so that the players know they have support, the manager knows he has support and equally importantly, Katharina knows that the club has support. It's easy for people on the outside to criticise the club, but if I was a Saints player with ambition and a top 4 club came a calling, I wouldn't turn it down. Boycotting and protest is something for the future, perhaps if the season starts and we haven't signed any replacements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ant Posted 28 July, 2014 Share Posted 28 July, 2014 Not a chance. It's actually quite a funny idea - given the number of variables involved, any expected attendance from the club's end will no doubt be plucked from the air.

Marsdinho Posted 28 July, 2014 Share Posted 28 July, 2014 Don't do friendlies...too many young kids playing on their iPhones and discussing who their BFF is this week. However, after forking out for a season ticket, and reading that we have £££££'s in the bank after selling off the best saints team in years, I do find it rather annoying to see articles like the one in the OP. Saints: "We have taken your ST money, and banked millions in players sales in the last few months, but could you please give us £15 extra to enjoy a sterile environment loosely described as a bar, thanks" Marsdinho: "**** off" They have bigger fish to fry, than to try and squeeze £15 off a few mugs.

(I'm ready for the abuse) i would find it difficult to justify spending my hard earned dough on watching Saints if they banked over £100m in transfer money but didn't get the signings we need. But, it hasn't happened yet simo. Just be patient, if it doesn't happen, crowds will inevitably suffer. I reckon Ron has got players lined up.
