THIS! (albeit from a biased Saints fan)

You want to not select England's best striker last season (judging by goals and assists only) in place of 'bedding in more youth'? Really?

Englands top goal scorer in the Premier League last year.

I would have to assume not, given that our relegation from the Premier League screwed us up. Not the most popular man in Southampton But credit where it is due, he invested heavily into the youth set up... (Chamberlain, Walcott, Bale, Surman, Dyer, Blackstock etc). I just posted as I wasn't sure...

Not through a 'shit or bust approach' no. We got relegated from the Prem because we sold our best players, not bought lots of expensive players. We went into administration because we needed the Prem money to pay back the £30m for our stadium, Rupert Lowe never accounted for the possibility of...

When was our last shit or bust approach?

When was our last shit or bust approach?

Yes. Found not guilty.

Craig Mackail-Smith? I would say Lee is a more clever player. Whereas Mackail-Smith runs and runs and runs, whether it's a good run or not, Lee is more crafty finding gaps and a couple yards space in a crammed penalty area.

Morning all. Saw this on Saintsweb and wondered what your thoughts would be. I think Barnard would be a cracking addition to any Championship side. His work rate, movement and ability to find the back of the net is very good. As a striker he is also very good at getting fouled, like Shearer was...

That reference was to the Saturday match against Pompey, not Monday's match against Crystal Palace :)

Yes we did. Every team loses. We were outplayed and outfought for large parts of the game. I don't think we even managed a shot on target, maybe one in the first half? But that's football. I clapped my team off the field at the end of the game and drove home. I cannot think of a better season...

we are reaping the rewards :)

As a Saints fan, top six would be amazing!

Just watched the replay twice. I could only make out the words 'off'. Am not defending the ref by the way, he had an awful game.

It kind of does though. If the ref gave the foul based on the fact he slid in and didn't win the ball, and booked him accordingly... the fact he won the ball means no free kick and no yellow card. I don't want to argue, I like this forum as it has quite a decent calibre of posters, on the...

100% disagree. His yellow card wasn't even a foul, it was a great tackle. He won the ball. I don't remember any off the ball incidents? He had a high foot in the second half and a free kick against was given.
