I may be being naive but I'd find that quite offensive, if true. I prefer to think that Cortese is mischief making, that's not beyond the realms of possibility either, is it?

It isn't no, but like I said, he has said a lot of things that people dismiss, that then turn out to be true.

For context.

Eddie Mitchell (Borunemouth chairman publicly stated that Eddie Howe had been offered the Saints job before Adkins and turned it down).

Nicola Cortese said this was rubbish, only Adkins had been offered the job.

Everyone (as they always do) assumed Cortese was the lier, cue much baiting from Bournemouth fans and rubbish from ours>

Eddie Howe is interviewed "Were you offered the Saints Job?" Howe "I spoke to them, but I wasn't offered it".

Why are we trying to stir a rivalry with Scumhampton all of a sudden? To be honest I don't give a shit about them, their arrogant and big headed wanker Adkins or their deluded fans. Can we please do our talking on the pitch on Saturday, because for me beating Palarse is bigger then beating Scumhampton.

:lolol:
Doesn't sound like it

I know I will get shouted down for this but have on very good authority (cliche I know, but was an El Abd family memeber)that Adam will be back in contention for the Cov game, which I think is excellent news

i delivered his sainburys to him on monday and he said he was back training tuesday, and is near match fitness as been working out at the gym and is hoping to get a run out in reserves.

Really? REALLY?

Yep. Worst thing you can say to me as a fan is Saints means more than Palace.

You could win the Champs League and I would still not be happy.

The ONLY game that REALLY matters now (other than the next one, then the next one) is the 31/01/12

Managers and fans have different perspectives. Beating the league leaders will shape the season more than winning or losing to palarse.

I hope the use of "Scumhampton" was deliberate irony?

The whole post was full of irony, all unintended and ovedr his head
 


Shatkins did wind up Gus last season with some remarks, it seems a bit like a Venners/Mullers rivalry is developing.

Gus however gets on well with Dougie, they were on the same FA coaching course.

Was Freedman putting out the cones ?

fair play to Gus.
Saints are the most important team in the UK right now.

More important than man city, man united, arsenal, tottenham, Chelsea, newcastle and of those, playing in Europe in the cl and Europa cup.......

What is it with some deluded people? We are both in the second division ffs....let's not get ahead of ourselves

what a load of bollox , so if this is true poyet is prepared to put aside traditional rivalry in favour of personal gripes........if so he is a twatt .
three points at southamton is more important now because we are mid table not top two , if you need to read any more into it than that then you need help.

yes it's been a bad day...!

Was Poyet going to Southampton before or after he was supposed to be going to Chelsea as Ray Wilkins's replacement? According to Jimbo.GRFC it was all done and dusted, compensation agreed, etc etc.

EDIT: Sorry. didn't realise we'd got onto (or rather back onto) which game is biggest. Carry on.

Do we actually know the full context of this supposed quote from Poyet though? So far it just seems like typical sensationalist rubbish from HB&B to me.

I am also staggered that beating Palace in a one off game would mean more to you than Brighton becoming European Champions.
