Best stop watching the BBC until there's anything positive to get out of it?

Is this the same Daniel Peretz ? .
at 17:20 9 Sep 2026

Your comments certainly in no way reflects the Peretz or overall performance that I saw playing out last night.
DP nearly saved Vipotnik's pen. He was solid. His positional sense was excellent. And I am really not sure what the perceived issues are with his distribution.
The side want to play it out from the back more to create opportunities.
Azaz explained it on Radio Solent last night and asked the fans to trust them on it. So we should do that.
And when it needs to be thumped down the pitch, it happens. Peretz leads from the back.
Yes, our second 11 needs some work, which is the reality of why we didn't win the last 2 away games. I am sure that our manager isn't ignorant of that though. And if Eckert hadn't subbed the players against Lincoln and Birmingham in the way that he did, would we still have won as easily at home?

You don’t get automatic promotion by dropping points from winning positions.

Total complacency by Eckert.
The points were more important than the rotation spreadsheet today. We did well to get ahead.Then the tinker man f*cked it up. It was like Reuben Selles was still in charge

Agree with the points on here.
Whilst our first 11 is about good enough. As shown last night, when it's not working, we now have no one to bring on really who I'd have confidence can change a game.
We are definitely short a front man and a defender with an eye for a long ball.
We barely laid a glove on the Brummies in the second half last night. Only Matsuki seemed to make us more competitive.
You have to wonder why we never signed another more mature CB. And what on earth we were doing offering 9mil for Charlton's 19 year old striker at the end of the window. Surely we should have used that money to guarantee striker reinforcements, like David Connolly back in the day.

I agree that I now think we will come up short this year

Tyler Dibling At Preston
at 12:59 27 Aug 2026

Dibling did next to nothing in his 33 EPL appearances for Saints. 2 goals and 1 assist. Its a miracle that we got Everton to pay so much for him.
He's a prime example of a player who's been ruined by too much reward too young, and a lack of football focus. He has lost what made him good.

A loan to Saints might be good for him. It's unlikely to achieve anything for Saints or help in our promotion effort

And what did he do in those 13 EPL games?
One assist. Lost 8. Won 1 (which he only played 7 minutes of).

And its been 9 years, I think, since he played for England.

Whilst I have no dispute that he did well for us, by whatever measure, there must be a reason why no EPL team has really fancied him for the last couple of years. When he should have been playing at his peak.

And in the 23/24 season, he played as an AM predominantly.

He could maybe slot in at CM and we are lacking a decent Defensive Midfielder with good passing range. Though the last thing that we need is a player more focused on his successful passing stats than creating chances, which I think may be the perception of many, in relation to JWP?

We've already got many surplus players taking wages that make them hard to get off the books. Do we really need another one, who has no future sale value?

I can see why its being considered as a short term option. Though like with Lallana and Romeu, we don't seem to get much playing benefit out of old players coming back for another roll of the dice

Benfica are after Harwood Bellis
at 13:52 13 Aug 2026

I wouldn't be surprised if this was Benfica working on behalf of an EPL club to try and establish a low purchase price for THB, in the hope that we need the money. Just the sort of shithouse move I'd expect from Spurs or the like
Will be interesting to see how this develops.

Unfunded? Hilarious.

Why did no one ask how we fund the billions to Ukraine?
Or the billions for Covid?
Or the billions for "renewable energy"
Ort the billions going into CCTV and AI cameras everywhere?
And so on.
But, my god, any money to reduce costs for the people?!? Herey! "How is it funded", scream the media and those who listen to the media and don't see it for what it is. A narrative engine.

More to the point, why only cut Electricity VAT? Why not cut the green tax on fuel? Or inheritance tax? Which would benefit us all and put money back into the economy?

People need to wake up.
There is a reason why Government is so bad and getting worse. So that we'll accept the awful dystopian globalist, remote technocratic alternative they've got lined up. What else do people think the data centres, cameras everywhere and digitising of everything is about?
Just in the same way that refereeing standards became so bad, that we would accept VAR.
Its hardly a new trick, but everyone seems to keep falling for it

Hmmm, since when was Labour party, or any other party for that matter, doing what it published in its manifesto?
Not that politicians lying and serving anyone other than the public is a surprise to any of us, I am sure.

We know what Burnham will do. Just like whoever is in power working in lock step with the eugenecists
- Run up more debt and bankrupt the country by giving money mad initiatives, overseas to NGOs and foreign powers,
- raise more taxes on us,
- let corporate and council corruption run rampant,
- make councils screw with our lives and build all over the countryside
- try and get into the minds of kids through schools and tv propaganda, so that they can brainwash them, like the nazis and communists did
- continue to roll out facial recognition and other tech that destroys our freedom and privacy
- introduce more legislation so that we are all criminals in the eyes of the State - so we can be fined and punished
And on and on ad infinitum

Ward-Prowse on the way back to Saints
at 16:05 19 Jun 2026

My wife and son waited outside Staplewood the whole afternoon to get player signings. Thats how I know JWP exited to avoid fans.
Can't speak highly enough of the rest of the team in that context though. Both Walcott and KWP were class.

No one is questioning JWP's professionalism. Just his compassion.

He was good for Saints, as you say Nick. Wouldn't argue with that.
As others have stated, there's a reason he hasn't worked out for any EPL club though. Meaning that he is also unlikely to work for us, and we'll then be saddled with him for 3 years on inflated wages

Ward-Prowse on the way back to Saints
at 13:12 18 Jun 2026

On the season we got relegated, only Ward Prowse and Lyanco exited via the backdoor of Staplewood so that they didn't have to meet the fans.
Said everything I needed to know about what he thinks about us.

JWP has nothing to offer that we need and just like Lallana, he ran off for the big bucks. Good luck to them. They aren't the prodigal son though and I have no interest in their return, sucking up a chunk of a player budget whilst making no difference to us as a team or club.
Look at how Lallana is benefiting whilst having no obvious positive impact on the Under-21s. Can do without another entitled, inflated ego floating around the club

There is a much simpler, less wordy definition of fascism. It is where the State is controlled by Corporations and works on their behalf, against the people it is supposed to represent. In which case, fascists are those working on behalf of the State, against the people.

Communism is supposedly the opposite. Where the State controls the corporations.

Though when we are honest about it, and these are supposedly left / right extreme politics, the reality is that there is no difference.

It is where the State, Institutions and Business, not actually representing the people at all, are working against the People. Which is exactly where we are now.

Yet sadly, people are falling into the Hegelian Dialectic of fighting each other and name calling, exactly as intended by those faceless organisations that supposedly have the power. One group calling the other fascists and the other calling them communists. Like arguing over the different sides the same coin.
It was no coincidence that the US and UK recruited all of those Nazis after WW2 with Operation Paperclip. So long as we are arguing amongst each other, nobody questions how f*cked up those perverts are that run everything

Yes, those were the ones charged. Who started it was my question.
They will hardly charge their own agents.
You only have to look at events like the January 6th Capitol attack. An entirely fake psyop where people went down for it, Yet, those that led it and told people where to go and directed them into the White house were Agents, who got off scot free and were airbrushed out of the event. Its a very common modus operandi here too. "Spycops" https://theweek.com/law/the-uk

I think based on that, you have to question the judge's independence.

"honestly believed that there were reasonable grounds for suspecting Henry had committed an offence" - Why did they believe that? Based on what evidence?

"police were given a convincing but wholly false narrative of the incident" - by who? What made it convincing when there was no evidence to support it?

Why would a credible policeman handcuff someone based on someone else's say so? Was Henry Nowak a threat or trying to runaway?

You can't justify stomping over another's rights, based on there being an example somewhere of someone feigning injury. You need evidence. That is a policemen's job, to establish that. Otherwise a policeman is no more credible in their role than a militia or a vigilante.
In which case, there is a serious problem with policing

I would really love to know who started the trouble in the crowd amongst the protestors, and where they came from. New faces that Southampton people haven't seen before by any chance?
The State has a history of planting agitators into these type of events, to actually cause violence, create division and change the narrative against those wanting some sort of justice and peaceful protest. We've seen these bad actor agents at many of the protests. You have to wonder when the old celebrity faces pop up and make statements to prod the left vs right narratives, for those too naive to discern what is really going on and believe what they read in the newspapers and see on TV

I think you need to stop watching so much news. You're just banging on about media narratives ("far right") that have been created out of thin air.
Suddenly applying some weird artificial DEI filter that you've been fed over things that should really be judged through, common sense, fairness and natural law, which is actually the measure of what is right and wrong.
Stop mistaking actors , playing inflammatory pop-up personalities as real people. And thinking that they are the mouth pieces for any actual peoples beliefs.
At the end of the day, you are just promoting violence. And, no, there is never justification for that, however you are trying to rationalise it based on some pantomime baddies

You think the BBC have any interest in reporting the truth about anything? The same BBC that said there was no atmosphere in the home game against Boro. The BBC who said only the Boro fans could be heard singing and that all the Saints fans left an none stayed behind to cheer the team after the match. That truth purveying BBC?

So, refunds for not being in the final but nothing for the semi final games ?

Yes, I was listening for anything of substance from that waste of space, Parsons. Of course there was nothing.
In the same way as his involvement in representing us with the EFL produced nothing and showed his naivety and ineffectiveness in his role.

Saints fans paid money to attend what was effectively a dead rubber against Middlesborough in both legs. And the club has totally failed to represent us.
I guess people like Parsons don't think like that, because they get their travel and tickets all paid for. So he's very comfortable telling us to all be resilient, stiff upper lip, to trust them and so on, whilst he still gets a fat wage and will be no worse off
