| News Comment | It's Official Adam Lallana Returns To Southampton at 15:43:11
I think I remember AL failing a medical at another club some years before the mass exodus to Liverpool Saints on the other hand gave him a new contract when they could have medically retired him When he got yet another new contract when we got into the PL he said he saw no reason why he wouldn't finish his career with Saints A lot changed when Kat took the reins away from NC and I think it's possible he convinced the players that his,and therefore their dream,was over.That of course is supposition on my part but it does fit I will not give him any slack because of what went before and he will need to earn it if I am going to sing "he plays on the left" etc |
| News Comment | Jose Fonte Could Be About To Return To Southampton at 17:38:26
He was forced out by VvD who wanted the armband. The chances of a return as a PL player Nil Does he have any coaching badges? Could he play as an overage player with the youngsters ? |
| News Comment | Watt View - The Play off Special at 16:45:42
RM said from the off that the most important people in any club were the fans He then made sure to inform and include them as much as he could. His pre match appearances were regular and his celebrations with the fans were all designed to make us feel included I've loved the season and hope that SR now back him and get in players who can play this style at the highest level |
| News Comment | Saints Can Now Start Planning Their Transfer Strategy For The Premier League at 18:36:26
First step must be getting those of the loanees you want to keep signed up and get rid of those out on loan that you don't rateThen he can see what else is needed I would suggest a new keeper (Liss possibly) A full back Wan Bissaka from Utd £20m Two centre backs or one if ABK comes back Varane on a free from Utd would give us the back line experience we have missed since Fonte left An attacking m/f as well as getting Stu A to signe a new contract It's going to be a very interesting summer window |
| News Comment | Southampton V Leeds United The Wembley Play Off Final Verdict at 09:59:01
We need to get in players keen to play Russball in the hope they will impress the sky six enought to buy them But we must only sell when we have a replacement ready Some experienced PL players out of contract like Varane and Martial from Utd Yes they would have to take a pay cut but that applies wherever they go At least they could keep their PL status |
| News Comment | Southampton V West Bromwich Albion The Play Off Preview at 09:53:19
Don't know about the players but I have got butterflies already Massive must win game and it's down to all of us to create an hostile atmosphere for WBA Will the club put colours on the seats tonight I am fairly sure Leeds did last night |
| News Comment | Could Adam Lallana Make A Surprise Return To Southampton at 10:45:43
Yes let him come back and kiss the badge again After all he did once say I see no reason why I wouldn't finish my career at Saints To quote Billy Connelly he would be as welcome as a f**t in a space suit |
| News Comment | Southampton At West Bromwich Albion The Play Off Verdict at 11:08:50
Captain Jack tried to invent some new ways of giving the ball away and Mara failed to influence the game in any way MotM for me was McCarty On top of 2 great saves he commanded his six yard area and dealt well with the threat from long throws He will probably need to do it again on Friday With nothing to lose I think Albion can and will throw caution to the wind and go all out for it I hope RM sees it right and reverts to a back 4 without JS |
| News Comment | Keep It Simple, Play Your Best Players, Change Little ! Is The Message To Southampton at 12:02:46
So many points in your piece that I could argue with Nick l am however in agreement that the style and tactics used at Leeds did the business and we never looked under too much pressure Having JS in the back line still scares the whatsit out of me and as we saw last week he is prone to being turned over by an aggressive press If he wants 3 centre backs then my choice would be Charles Bednarek and THB I remain confident that we will go to Wembley and get back to the PL |
| News Comment | Southampton At Leeds United The Verdict at 10:54:45
Other than captain Jack getting turned by Gnoto every time and then losing the ball ten yards outside our box the defence did really well They did look a bit chaotic at times but got away with it A rash challenge by him who must play led to a penalty appeal but the ref stood firm Downes,Smallbone and Aribo bossed the mf and took pressure off the back line Good all round and a definite confidence boost |
| News Comment | Saints Announce Ticket Pricing Information For Play Off Semi Final at 14:44:54
I posted on the other thread that my seat will cost £40 and no reduction for pensioners Is the club being fair to their loyal fans I don't think so Someone who has been to only one or two games can buy the seat next to mine and will only be asked for the same bamount I am expected to pay The average cost of my seat has been a little over £26 per match so this represents a 50% increase Have they not heard of a cost of living crisis |
| News Comment | Time For The Spirit Of Southampton Football Club at 09:52:46
Nick the team are not in adversity It is just the fickle supporters I doubt SMS will be sold out because the club have chosen to cash in and have over priced tickets Mine in the Itchen Premium will cost £40 with no reduction for pensioners and they Haven't itaken into account that we already pay a premium price |
| News Comment | Southampton Should Not Fear Anyone In The Play Offs. at 20:26:37
I fear Hull lf WBA lose and Hull win they will be the team with momentum And I remember the tonking they gave us in February Against Norwich or WBA I would be confident of getting to Wembley A win against Leeds would give us a physcological advantage if we meet in the final |
| News Comment | Southampton At Leicester City The Preview at 14:54:45
If we fail to go up and Sports Republic decide to part ways with RM I may well part ways with my season ticket The massive change that has come about may need more than one season to bring what we want I'm prepared to be patient and fed up having to start again after what 9 managers in 10 years |
