Hey ed002 I saw that u stopped posting on this page due to abuse i'm really sorry to hear that. i'm annoyed a few people would stoop so low when a lot of us are very greatful for your input.

Have you any news on southampton at all? Maybe top manager targets or updates on transfers. i'm expecting lambert lallana shaw to leave for silly money but are we going to be short changed by the board or could it be a very interesting summer for us.

Hope you reply any input into are bleak month would be good either way.

{Ed002's Note - I got kicked out for mentioning Pochettino, Shaw, Lovren, Lallana and Schneiderlin wopuld be subject of decent bids. I will not give you too much as it will attract abuse. Get over the next 10 days and hopefully it will settle.}

Disgusting behaviour from some people.

Fans have got to grip reality.

I wasn't the only person to warn this would be a turbulent summer.

Now Lambert is going to Liverpool for £4 million plus add on , increasing to £9 million eventually.

Lallana will likely leave, Shaw told the club ages ago that he wants to go (fact, live with it).

Expect interest in Chambers, Jay, Morgan Schneiderlin and Lovren as well.

Entirely likely that Southampton will receive over £100 million this summer but will spend less than half on replacements

I am one that is behind Kruger. I think our club is in a terrific position. Arguably the best position we have ever been in. Why would poch want to leave? Why shaw? Spider lovren etc etc
But the more time goes on, the more I question les reed and kreugers honesty.
Something isn't right. I bet most saints fans and Liverpool fans don't understand the lambert deal.
I will just be waiting to see what "high calibre" mAnager will still want to come here, if what the papers continue to report are true. But wag are we happens, I will still be a saints fan. Just wish we could make sense of it all.
And why, if KL was interested in making slot of money fast, would she attend the games?
Abd eds, I think you need to have thicker skin, I didn't witness any abuse myself, but I think it's perfectly normal for fans going through what have happened of the past couple of months, to question some of your knowledge. Hope this all gets resolved soon so we can look forward to next season

{Ed001's Note - abuse gets deleted but we still have to read it. As for telling us to have thicker skin, perhaps you should grow up and stop defending knobheads. Ed002 does this for free and for some little turd to start giving out insults for something given to them for free is beyond idiocy to even defend like you are. Perhaps we should just none of us bother giving any input and you can insult each other as much as you like?}

Ed - he doesn't speak for all of us but I honestly don't think offence was meant by this guy, just frustrated. I have some inside knowledge and tried to share but you just get grief so I understand. Rest assured most sd fans appreciate the work you guys do. I tried warning everyone last week that the club are looking to cash in on about 80 million last week so gutted yes surprised no. This is the reason NC and then MP are not here. MP was not interested in spurs initially until he understood the next part of the project. Put simply the players are furious and the proposal for going forward as some joined because of a vision that is no longer there.

{Ed001's Note - I deleted most of the grief you were given, but I understand what you are saying. I was just trying to make a point. We are trying to keep the site friendly, not filled with abuse, so that other people with information to share are not going to just keep it to themselves to avoid attracting abuse. No one should have to accept abuse and get a 'thicker skin', people just need to start trying to show some respect to others, even those they dislike.}

Spot on! Well some will bury their head in the sand but the real fans who are realistic know that the statement from saints was to get as much for the stars as possible. KL view is that we can use players from the academy we hear so much about. I doubt there will be an apology however. Maybe if we say we are signing messi and ronaldo they will be pleased despite being bs

Why would they need to apologise? It's their business, they owe £27m on transfers, and the club spends more on wages than it earns from ticket revenue.

It's a shame to see excellent players leave but hardly a surprise. You wouldn't stay in your job if you were offered more money to work in more favourable conditions.

The question is: can new players be sourced to keep the club clear of relegation next season. Until then, speculation about relegation is pointless.


6.) 30 May 2014
I was talking about an apology from the mindless persons that slate eds and others for telling them about inside info that they don't like not the owners. However as you brought it up coming out and making various promises like we did all we could to make MP stay is lying. As for the players shaw alone would be enough to cover the amount you specify. KL may own the club but surely you can see that the executable sale of lallana shaw and lamber plus potentially clyne, wanyama jayrod and others then replacing them with youth is not the forward. ESP after the we are aiming for Europe statement.

Shame some people have ruined it for the rest of us. Totally understand of course we will be getting bids are players are brilliant and been underrated for some time if we accept the main concern.

No manager info atm then


9.) 30 May 2014
Lambert will be off just hope we only sell him and we get a decent fee, who coykd be his replacement ED and who's likely to be the next boss? Coyr we need to keep our players and sign some decent players soon and get a decent boss


10.) 30 May 2014
Thanks for input Ed002. Can I ask if there is anything in the Koeman rumour I just find it hard to believe.

{Ed002's Note - I understand that Koeman would be interested.}


11.) 30 May 2014
I don't know about abuse as such, ED002. I see lately there was a lot of incessant monotonous questioning from the same peanut brained people. I would like to pass on my thanks for your efforts and apologies for the grief you've suffered from the minority. I hope to see you back on here.


12.) 30 May 2014
No offence intended, but ........................

{Ed002's Note - Fine, it was clearly me. You sort it out from now on because I am not going to.}


13.) 30 May 2014
That's because "the abuse was deleted". You are unlikely to see abuse that's been deleted regardless of having a big or peanut brain. Posts are dismissed because they are spelling out the direction the club is going. Regretfully we are moving very quickly to using the academy more - as opposed to allowing the to slowly med into the first team. This does not mean no new signings but we will be underwhelmed.


14.) 30 May 2014
Clearly one of the knobheads mentioned above!


15.) 31 May 2014
Hi we need to egg koeman in the next few days Coyr get a decent manager and onky sell osvaldo snf sign 4/5 players and let's stay up


16.) 31 May 2014
You could say that's a form of abuse Greg? Above is my first ever deleted post, and by no means was abusive.


17.) 31 May 2014
A form of abuse - I assume you mean "peanut brain" which was used in reference to another post from someone else. Get a refund on your dictionary because the definition of abuse is clearly wrong
