Because he comes out with just as much sh!t as Adkins and every other Manager in the football league. Should Saints fans get hysterical about it and bring it up and every possible moment?
Got your caps lock on and your spell checker off I see Nice post. Well done.
To be perfectly honest, no I can't. But there is always a first time, so perhaps this was it. Adkins only comment of note was the one in November and now it seems etched in the memories of some as the most heinous crime ever committed. When I heard him (Poyet) blabbering on about there being no difference between SFC and D&R I thought it was a bit ironic. He sounded serious, but maybe he was just on a wind-up. I am not going to get upset, I just thought that it was worth pointing out that he is not immune to idiocy.Prior to the build up to today's game, could you source some prime Poyet quotes regarding Southampton ? I was just wondering whether the odd obsession is reciprocated.
Oh the irony. Do you always make such witty and profound contributions to this forum?Well done, well spotted. You are the best, just like your team... oh no that's right, WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS, WE ARE THE BEST! NOW f*** OFF YOU'RE BLOODY BORING!
...and Lallana ;-)I reckon they would be top six with Lambert and Fonte...

Perhaps we do. I don't know. We trounced them 4-0 early in the season and I missed the away game (3-1 I think) - so my memory of their style of play is not as recent as perhaps yours. Considering they managed 3 goals at your place and conceded four, perhaps it is our defense they need to make the top six, not fatty and the night-club brawler.And Butterfield. He was class today I thought. In all honesty the comments Gus made about Southampton = Dag & Redbridge + Lambert + Barnard were stupid. I did however agree that you play a similar style

Come on - that is stretching the truth a bit thin. He hasn't accused anyone of cheating all season. He merely pointed out some of the legitimate tactics on regular display at your place during this season. I didn't know anything about the ball-boy tactic until yesterday - and today I witnessed it for myself. Fair play - you do whatever you have to in order to gain an advantage. It is just that some would say "it is just not cricket". He also stated that you get lots of penalties and, well, you do! He also paid you respect. Lots of people have paid you respect - lots of times. How much respect do you need, and why do you care so much about it?The reaction that one - arrogant as it was - probably did get out of hand but then, if a manager says stupid things like that, nobody is going to let him forget it. Most managers would have taken the sting out of that situation later in the season by paying respect, no matter how grudging, to the team that had proved them wrong. What only the sourest loser would do is accuse them of having cheated all season, and I'm afraid that's the category Adkins falls into.
