Comment | Southampton At Brentford The Damning Verdict
at 11:01:03
Given that players do not deliberately give the ball away in dangerous positions, the question becomes whether JS, JB and THB can have the errors coached out of them or, in other words, whether they are skilful enough to play the system. What we were able to get away with last season we are not good enough to do in the Prem. and other teams will exploit this weakness relentlessly. RM is proud and stubborn and I cannot see him compromising on his principles. We have the players we need, but not the manager to get the best out of them. |

I may have missed it, but I don't recall any information appearing here regarding the position with Ross Stewart. Is he still injured? Is he likely to recover? Is he part of our future or not? |

Comment | Saints Set To Agree Deal With Keeper
at 10:45:53
I think this serves only to demonstrate that the club's belief in Bazunu for the long term is unshakeable, meaning that there was never any point in spending big on a 'keeper who would only be number one for a single season. |

Comment | Southampton At Liverpool The FA Cup Verdict

In 1976 our priority was promotion, but I seem to remember we gave it a good crack in the cup. I do not understand this obsession with promotion which, if achieved, will be followed by a season of misery, struggling at the bottom with relegation highly probable. |

Comment | Southampton V Millwall The Verdict
at 13:55:35
Plenty of teams play a possession based game now - indeed the suggestion is that teams that don't are stuck in the dark ages, but no one ever said it had to be ponderous. Arsenal, to pick just one example out of many, are fluid and fast paced. They see no need to pass endlessly along the back line, allowing the opposition to get as well organised as they could possibly be, before venturing forward. In addition, whatever the sport, if you do the unexpected, the opposition can often be caught off guard. So yes, why not give the 'keeper licence to kick it long once in a while. There is nothing to be gained from being predictable and that, on Saturday, is exactly what we were. |

Comment | FA Cup 4th Round Memories 28th January 1984 Fratton Park
at 11:26:51
Seeing the goal again still makes me smile as much as it ever did. The greatest game in the greatest season I've ever known. Never forget trying so hard not to look ecstatic as we made our way back to the car. Just the best memories - before the cup became the soulless hollowed out competition it is now. |

Comment | Saints Launch New Home Kit For 2023/24 Season
at 10:04:45
Desperately disappointing. To my surprise I seem to be in a minority here, but last season I looked with envy at Sheff Utd, Brentford and Sunderland. All proud to wear red and white stripes -front AND back. They recognise the importance of what we are these days required to call 'the brand', whereas we feel it necessary to constantly reinvent ourselves. |
