Southampton

Give them time, they'll work it out too - eventually.

Would be extra funny if, by the time they worked it out, they were in League Two.

That happened to Fulham some time ago.

Sadly I suspect they'll overhaul the 11 points they need in the next 40 games. Then next season, their fans will convince themselves that promotion is a CERTAINTY, at which point Pardew will have them struggling in mid table again.

Hope so.

Dont like em one bit.

I think that after 10 games its a good indicator of the way a season will pan out for a club, after that very few go from one end of a table to another.

If after 10 games the gap is bigger than 11 points they should really start looking down rather than up.

Shit teams dont click, noy untill they dump shit managers.

 

[Peter Grummit]

The only team without a win in the division, never mind the points deduction.

And financially, can they sustain the wage bill they are acquiring?

Arrogance and Confidence.

Those of us who are still going to St Mary's (Sky TV/Sunday issues) need to make sure that Saints fans realise that we really are not impressed with their ground, history or anything else there. I suggest we travel in massive numbers, drink all their beer and outsing them at every opportunity. Standard away game really!

What about Matt Le Tissier?

What about the flair Southampton team of 1980-85 (with equally flair kit)?

What about them demolishing Man Utd 6-3 and 3-1 at the Dell in successive years in the late 1990s?

Southampton is a horrible, horrible city, but they are a club with a great history.

1. What about Matt Le Tissier?

2. Can't remember.

3. Actually hired a venue, laid on catering etc. for a 'Scummers Going Down Party', the buggers won on the last day against Utd! Arse!

3. (Again) What about us beating Liverpool at Anfield in 83? Or demolishing Man City 4-1 last season? We are equal to them in every way (when Falmer arrives!)

4. Correct about city. Great history of being above their station for far too long, now lets rub their noses in it.

Some of the Burbs are quite nice.

I still believe they will get it right soon and put a good run together which will push them up into promotion contenton.

My brother in law lives in Brighton and is a scummer and my father in law is a palace fan. Its weird though because its the mother in law i hate and she doesnt even like football

 

[Simon Morgan]

I don't know how people can say Pardew is a crap manager.

He did a teriffic job at Reading, and at West H'aaaa'm. Ok so Charlton it didn't work out but he said himself that the club was already on a downward spiral when he took over and he couldn't stop it.

For the record Southampton will be absolutely fine this season. I would say they can still expect to achieve a top half position once they click.

Crodo, what did you think of Les Reed's spell as manager of Charlton?

It was a very sad day for me when I discovered that http://www.saintschat.com was no more.

The site gave me endless amusement after they got relegated from the Premiership.

Fortunately I managed to post a few snippets on here in the past.

Loved this one

I was thinking about this the other day, we need to come up with some songs that kind of poke fun at our relegation. I'm no psychologist but in my experience, if somebody is trying to wind you up, its better to laugh at yourself with them. That way they got nowhere else to go with it. So when the away fans start trying to take the p*ss, we can just come back with a song to show that we will take everything they throw at us and not bite back.

Anybody got any ideas?

With the departures over the summer I can only think of a couple of songs that we have for individual players: Marian Pahars and Brett Ormerod.

Any chance of the creative ones among us thinking up songs for some of the other players, paticularly Quashie, Wise, Oakley and Powell, who I think will be particularly influential this season.

Why would most of the League one teams be impressed by St Marys?

Most of the League went there last season, just the Leicester version!
