Er. I watched a 7 goal FA Cup thriller today in which all three of our English senior Lions scored (or am I breathing the same air as Jesus?).

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeh, blame Fox for every poor result (even if he doesn't play) because he's rubbish, yeh so he played an important part in our promotion to prem, so what? We've moved on! Harsh but true. We really miss Wanyama, played 14, won six, West Brom, Liverpool, Palace, Swansea, Fulham and the mighty Hull when Vic's played! Poor recent results are nothing to do with keeper and back four changes, we miss Vic, he's my player of the season, he's awesome!

Agree0 Disagree0

You guys really need to take off those rose tinted glasses.
Woo be tide anyone who has a mind of there own and as a fans voices there option?
But No! you must be behind the team no matter what!!
No matter how they play?
You must be like Brianless sheep and get behind the team and the manager!
And if you don't then your not a real supporter of are club?
How very sad! If that's what being a real football supporter is now! Then
count me out!!
As for blaming fox god knows what the final score would have been if he'd been playing aswell today!by the way are you his agent or his number one fan?
If so tell him from me he's worse then rubbish!!

Agree0 Disagree0

I suggest certain "persons" who can't spell should be a little more controlled when talking about players who can't play!

I trust the coaches to know when Academy players are ready for a go in the 1st team, and also when 1st team players are in need of a rest. Don't you realise that if an Academy player is brought in and has a bad experience it could set his development back for a long time? Do you not realise that back-up players need to be played to try and get them match fit, in case they are required to step up? Until we sign better, that is the reality of the situation, and I trust NC to decide as and when the club bring in new players.

This talk about real football supporters seems to be confused with Football Manager fanatic.

Anyway, I shall be interested to see who Burnley draw in the next round! LOL.

Sorry to revert to sarcasm but Saints are BUILDING a top side not BUYING one, and the club have made this point a number of times. There is always Man. City to support if you want the second.

Saint Martin

Agree0 Disagree0

You start off saying we should support the team whatever and then have a go at Fox, who didn't even play yesterday and I understand has agreed a move which will happen this January. Thanks for the promotion and good luck foxy

Agree0 Disagree0

Not sure who Saint Martin's rant is aimed at?

Agree0 Disagree0

I was thinking that myself lol!

Agree0 Disagree0

They're all rubbish? How many prem caps have you got? yeah none right? they're good players, they just never play together and therefore haven't built up the understanding Fonte and Lovren have.

And isn't football about scoring more than the other team? if the match finished 10-9 or 1-0, who cares, we still would have won and gone through, stop the moaning, it's f'king annoying and I swear I will kick the next person who moans around me at st marys in the face, we've had a great season until now, 3 england internationals, 3 18 year olds who are as good as any player in this league, probably the best academy in the world at the moment, is that not good enough for you? Jesus, where were you when we were in League one on -10, at home i'm guessing, I was there week-in-week-out, I supported the team then and now, to see 5 of the players we had then become some of the best players in the prem this season, jeez whatever happens between now and the end of the season, i'm proud, we could finish 17th and I would be, because we're where we belong and we're back to stay. Shut. Up. With. The. Moaning

Agree0 Disagree0

Saint Martin's rant was aimed at the "person" who was the OP-not rocket science!

But now I know it was Big Sam and he was explaining how you should chuck in the youngsters to give them experience whether they are ready or not. That worked well didn't it Sam?! Never mind, now they have the experience they will be ready for Man. City in three days, won't they?

Let me try and explain VERY SIMPLY:

Burnley have the best attacking threat in the Championship-a bit like Saints had two seasons ago! So, we play two experienced CBs who performed pretty well in the Championship not long ago, but showed they are seriously lacking in match fitness-so where is there any clue that young academy players would be any better? I think West Ham United gives the answer.

There were two young players on our bench who I suspect would have been introduced if we had scored the third goal. We didn't, so we had to change focus.

Saints won the match, and both Jos and Yosh. picked up some much needed match time. Not saying that makes them suitable for where we want to be in the future, but for where we are at the moment, it was the right decision to make. I suspect the club know exactly who they want to add to the squad and will be patient until they get them to sign-if that means we have a quiet January, then so be it.

Saint Martin

Take a chill pill, you're going to have a heart atack

Hoiveld and Yoshida need to go, wouldn't everyone rather see Turnball or Stephens play and at least they would learn from their mistakes and become better players because of it, thoughts?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Yoshida is alright, just about Premiership standard. Hooiveld is far from that standard.

Agree0 Disagree0

Could not agree more strongly
Makes no sence to keep playing the same rubbish players over and over again and expecting a different out come!!
only a person would do that?
We say we're all out about building the youth and given them a chance?
Then prove it!
They could not do any worse?
These players are a liability and we all know who they are!
There so bad I don't have to even name them because everyone knows who they are!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Well I guess we rotated the cbs, after a hectic exhausting christmas period, and still won. So can't be too bad

Agree0 Disagree0

Hoiveld yes Maya no he was a good performer last year and has looked good this year beside better defenders like Lovren and Fonte

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Jan 2014 16:26:34
JOS HOOIVELD how many chances he rubbish in fact he's not that good Mo-Po you've lost the plot!!! Get it sorted

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Agree total horses*** again today will be surprised if he is still here come February

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes Jos (and Maya) were poor today, but both Fonte and Lovren can't play every game.

Even I can't defend the above today. their passing was extremely poor, and frequently gave the ball to the opposition under no pressure at all.

That said it's a squad game. We'll only sell one of the two IF we bring in another CB.

Agree0 Disagree0

What about Jordan Rhodes? Need someone to put the chances away.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Would you pay £12m for him? that's what they are after for Rhodes.

I'd rather have Ings at half the cost

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeah didn't think of him straight off the top of my head
