CityRanger Posted 29 January, 2018 Share Posted 29 January, 2018 In spite of the manager.... I know he’s not exactly set the world alight but surely he deserves a bit of credit when we win? Out of interest did you want Puel out too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Albert Posted 29 January, 2018 Share Posted 29 January, 2018 But he is correct , so why slate him for doing so, no difference that the same 50 or so posters on here slate the manager week in week out. some of you really need to look at yourselves, look at the facts, the same posters hounded puel out, now look at him,,, is he really a sh\1te manager? sitting pretty in 7th. i'd have some of that. I was at the game yesterday, and thought the boys did ok. all i can say is you guys need to leave the fifa 18 and football manager alone. He’s won 4 PL games all season. We are in the relegation zone, with a mid-table caliber squad that should not be anywhere near the relegation zone. I simply can’t see why people would want to slate him. Seems completely irrational to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Albert Posted 29 January, 2018 Share Posted 29 January, 2018 Jeremy Wilson on the confrontation between Watford players and their supporters after the game... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2018/01/28/christian-kabasele-explains-confrontation-fans-watfords-fa-cup/ He also mentions that Saints are awaiting the results of a scan on Bertrand’s hamstring, and are still hopeful about completing the Promes transfer.

spyinthesky Posted 29 January, 2018 Share Posted 29 January, 2018 Two things that surprised me re the Watford game: 1. Fielding a relatively strong side 2. The size of the crowd. I really thought that even allowing for decent pricing and a healthy contingent from Watford, it was unlikely that the crowd would exceed 12,000 bearing in mind our recent turgid home form. However there were a lot of youngsters at the game (great for the future) and I was particularly amused by a large group of under 10's walking to the ground singing OWTS. Also I sit in a relatively quiet part of the ground and there were a lot of unfamiliar faces who individually and, at times, collectively added to the atmosphere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want good vocal home support, the club should encourage it with their ticket pricing strategy. It's what Pompey are doing. They give disounted tickets to under 22s while under 17s pay next to nothing. I realize they are in League One but it's the pricing incentives to encourage youngsters which we need to look at, even if our prices are higher than theirs. Pompey season ticket prices 2017/18: Young Person (18-22 on September 1 2017): £240 Junior (17 and under on September 1 2017): £80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
