I've just listened to the 4th Southampton fan in 2 days on R5's 606 singing our praises. This one was the best yet, as he went into detail about how he remembers well when they were set to be bought by SISU (and he actually named them!). He went on to explain that he'd not been able to get...

It's a fitting new theme song, suited to our poorly and decrepit state! Maybe we can get Richard Wilson in as fitness coach? One for the oldies, there ;) I'd look to be original re: names. We could go for something American, like Pirates or Bullet's; Cougar's if we want to be alliterative...

Or a lever by SISU to rid themselves of the football club for good, by destroying it!

Are we allowed to offer contracts now, then? Are we out of embargo? If not, and he wants to leave for a bigger club, surely we are powerless to stop him going? That might not be the situation and he could be just bigging himself up on facebook, but if he is as good as people say, maybe he jumped...

You could not say that about the last 10 managers. They all had more money to bring in players, bigger squads, bigger budgets, and more experienced players. I don't like to say this, but that is a fact.

That's your best conspiracy theory yet! I think you are reading a little too much into a pretty straight forwards statement by Baker, and maybe erroneously crediting him with a Machiavellian mindset similar to your own.

Brilliantly put. I'm getting seriously sick of our fans, we must be the most negative in the league-or at least the ones on this forum are, anyway. Like you say, this thread is not the "Baker is shit" thread-we've had enough of them, thanks. It was to point out what he's said about our owners...

Possibly, but I'm pretty confident that if it was a more austere but open and communicative regime that the fans would rightly be a lot more understanding and patient than they would with a faceless SISU-type owner

YES, Saints fan on 606 now is brilliant: spoke about their owners and how they'd turned them around, then said "But my heart coldn't help but go out to those Coventry fans. They've been bought by some people who very nearly bought Southampton, and the fans had their banners against them there...

Could Sir Alex now?!?

Well I was sorta being sarcastic, but hey ho!

Savage says we were the best side first 15-20 mins and it's the front two that make the difference at that level, as today showed. So that's a bit more even-handed by the Beeb!

Meh, what did we expect, today was about them, not us. Saints fan on 606 thanking the City fans for being fantastic today. Said both us and Pompey can use relegation as a platform like them and come back stronger. Nice touch.

Get your "City Reject!" chants ready for Grandison! Although he'll probably score and show us why we were wrong to get rid of him..

In Room 101 of Level 42 of the Hotel California, perhaps?

Sign of the times, innit? Venture Capitalists who suck off the fat of the system not making money as Western Capitalism crumbles, that'll be.

That's what an ILL costs, too. Only 1 other person on the forum will get that, and that's if he's paying attention ;)

Oooh, I like a good counter-rumour! Shall I change the thread title to "Hoffman made/or is about to make another bid?" :D

Sure, from our perspective-but if you take a step back and try and look at it objectively, we are asking for the moon on a stick* *Lee and Herring being just as good as Mitchell & Webb IMO!

I missed the commentary, what did they say? Did SISU get a mention about reducing us to children who can't get a name at Boro? I heard there was a little bit of trouble with banners-did they pick up on that in TV? It all helps raise the profile. D'ya reckon we can maybe sue the FL for not...
