Again comments about behind the scenes issues. Again, I wonder if that rumour about Kat sueing Gao has legs?
The dreaded vote of confidence.
Iâm going to have to ask my matey Kitman Forbes to put extra starch into the wash this week, to help support the spineless bastards who pull on the shirt.

New Zealand scoring less than Leicester ⊠wished I had a put a fiver on that one!!
From a Leicester supporter.
Thanks, Phil, I know exactly what you mean. Southampton have some good players but they need to invest to progress and stop allowing the âbig boysâ to poach their best players. We at Leicester know how hard it is to hold on to decent players when money comes calling. Vichai has helped to slow down that trend for us. Good luck to you and especially those Saints fans who braved the elements and a Leicester mauling on Friday night.
Some say Ralph HasenhĂŒttl looks like the Governor from The Walking Dead.
St Maryâs technical area on FridayâŠ
Shame the torrential rain didnât put out the fire!
The family here support Wisla Krakow.
They were away to Legia Warsaw yesterday.
They lost 7-0.
Coach just said on TVâŠ
I guess we now know how Southampton fans feel
Get some of these lot in the menâs first team.
Can I just say that Leicester did enough of a job of making Saints fans really fucking miserable this weekend?
Can I also add that this was probably not the weekend to put the boot in?
Iâm referring to @Barry-Sanchez here. Wind your neck in Barry, and please try to remember that most of your fellow co-travellers thrive off the wins, not the embarrassing Premier League record defeats.
The board at southampton get a far too easy ride. The recent fans forums showed up the lack of ambition. A philosophy to be happy as we are and be satisfied with achievemnets. That attitude throughout the club has failed. All football clubs need ambition to progress in order to survive.
All our amition has gone into Kat and Goeos pockets. Al our amition from the CEO Kruger was to keep them happy. The new lot a just playing another version. Saying we are a small club and what else can we expect. Its not good enough. Koeman saw that early doors. We need ambitious owners, CEOs, managers , players and fans to make it work
We need honesty, transparency and objectives for fans to get behind, the current shower of shit at the top couldnât give a fuck, theyâre there to skim the tv money, hence if we go down itâll be bitter sweet.
And that is entirely fair comment.
And do you know what, you havenât abused anyone in making it.
Weâve had people asked how they might go about leaving this week, and for once, it was not on account of me.
I implore you. If someone is fucking you off, please just ignore them with the site function.
I never thought Iâd say that, but I can understand the frustrations of fans being kicked by one of their own when theyâve just been gut-punched by a truly dreadful performance from the team.
@Barry-Sanchez spends an inordinate, some might say unhealthy amount of time doing just that.
The most annoying thing is that I donât think weâve got any Gao fans here. Itâs not like weâre heaping our new owner with praise. There is no equivalent of a Dalek/Hoddle obsession, just a bunch of fans hoping their team does well.
I think there are a fair few people fucked off with being shouted at for committing that heinous crime.
Youâve had people ask about leaving a forum that is totally and utterly up to that person to contribute or not?
Sounds like a lizard way to get someone banned.
Without being a martyr as I couldnât really give a fuck and Iâm a bit more of a man than that snidey shit, shall I resign and not post again?
Itâs up to you. I will not be making that decision for you.
My personal suggestion is that your forum persona would be much improved if you posted less and composed your thoughts more.
At your best, youâre one of my favourite posters, @Barry-Sanchez, but a dissenting voice is good enough on its own. I would suspect a great deal of people respect you for that.
I personally respect you for never casting a down vote and never getting offended.
I suspect you get considerably less respect for the frequency of your arguments, the hostility you generally have toward Saints probably doesnât help.
99% of all forum chatter is talking bollocks in advance. One of the things I always hated about the Other Place was most of it was frenzied argument on speculation, people knocking seven bells out of each other for things that hadnât happened yet, or things neither could possibly know.
To conclude mate, just be nice. Youâre fucking lovely when youâre nice. Even gallows humour would be a step up. And yes, you can call me a hypocrite for all the times Iâve not been nice and I would agree, but Iâm trying to change my bad old ways.
Might I ask that sir does the same?
Concur with what @pap said above.
Can I also add thatâs itâs not what you say itâs the manner and frequency in which you say it.
Can I also associate myself with @papâs and @BTripzâs comments about what you post and how you post it but go further to say itâs also where you post it.
Match threads, for example, are emotional places especially when we lose and lose heavily.
Nobody needs to see that you believe the problem is related to things we canât change there and then - commercial/transfer policy, funding, the decisions of the Liebherrâs, etc.
We know you feel that we need to be reminded on the match thread - we donâtâŠbut nobody is stopping you from immediately using one of the many threads that exist to further that, often valid, line of debate. Iâm sure youâd get more people agreeing with you.
Likewise using one of your tangential perennials (Islam, Russia, Syria, etc.) as a non sequitur on unrelated threads gets very tedious for posters.
Youâre getting a lot of free advice here from the management of the site. Iâm not going to tolerate your old posting behaviour moving forward so heed the advice, appreciate the effort weâre putting in to try to accommodate your style and please adapt.
Also youâre a cunt.
