F*** me! Not another ‘reliable sauce’ saying the same old cobblers of the same old cobblers that was regurgitated ad nauseum. It goes something like this Roberto De Zerbi is going to ————— (name of club) and will be replaced by ————— (name of prospective coach). If all this crap is true do you...
No, and don’t be silly. Southampton were relegated last season and their fans are not happy being in the Championship - the only possible benefit would be an instant return to the Premier League.
I was at that game. Unforgettable second half with all SEVEN goals being scored Spider and Wardy were a superb partnership upfront. Thanks for everything Ian.
No smoke without fire? Go onto t’internet and it’s a merry-go-round of who’s goes where and when. All of course provided by ‘reliable sauces’. In fact 99.9% is pure bollocks and hearsay. FFS even down here in Southampton it’s rumoured that Russell Martin will be the next Brighton coach. Who...
Is he though? He’s just being honest and upfront about progression for himself and the team. In fact he has always been that. There is no harm in stating what is required to move forward even if, to some people, that it’s too forceful. With Roberto that’s the nature of the beast, besides he’s...
We were doing perfectly okay at the beginning of the season without Mac Alister and Caicedo. It was the Villa defeat of 6-1 that things started to go tits up. From there on in the injuries to key players and loss of form in others conspired to make us weaker. RDZ does not become a bad coach...
After the Man City game I felt that I just wanted the season to end. I always try to be positive following the Albion but the team have been so ravaged by injuries that it’s had a huge impact on our style of play and performance. It will be an absolute miracle if we were now to qualify for...
I treat other teams’ fans with respect, as I would expect the same in return. On that basis I‘ve never had any problems with opposition supporters over the years. I’ve had great chats with fans from clubs with a ‘reputation’ - Stoke and Burnley. Nearer to home Saints and Pompey have been...
I can think of shittier shit at grounds other than the Amex - a hot dog with a pulse at Fulham, ditto at Southampton in a roll so stale you could use as a house brick, a Pukka (puke) Pie at Villa that gave my mouth third degree burns. Oh, and a visit to watch Eastleigh in the National League...
I met Paul Barber a few months ago with my daughter. She described him as a very approachable and pleasant chap - but definitely not one to cross. Probably a fair assessment I’d say.
