Yeah as above really I mean he might leave, but it gets to a point where we are all saying literally everyone is going to leave, which also isn’t going to happen.

As farcical as he has been at times he would probably be alright in the Championship.

Remember how awful Hooiveld was in the PL, but how great he was in the Championship, for example.

I know I’m clutching at straws here, but that is pretty much all we have left.

Yep. I think Lyanco would be brilliant at that level. Stephens and Bednarek far above that level.

Depends on your definition of 'top-level'. I would argue that the Championship is at least equal to the Polish League, the Greek League, the Saudi League, the MLS, and probably even the Dutch League.

The Polish World Cup squad had players from all of these.

I can't see many Prem teams wanting to buy him, so maybe an offer from France or Italy might tempt him, but I imagine Saints will still be offering him better wages. And being made captain would hopefully sway him. unfortunately our petulant fan base will probably piss their pants at the thought.

If it's equal to the Belgian league, then Onuachu will suddenly make sense!

Sorry all but we are need of a hapless victim to do the Newcastle thread. I can confidently predict it will be a one-off.

Found it quite amusing that the Bournemouth fans sang about Saints more than they did their own team such is their desperation to have a rivarly with us. The complete lack of comment on Bournemouth from Saints fans following the game says all you need to know. It really doesn't register as anything more than another game in this stinking ****pile of a season.

This really pi$$es me off .

I worked in Bournemouth for a few years and there were quite a few cherries fans there that had followed the team for years .

There was banter of course , but it was good natured .

Then when they really started doing well , the gutless brigade started with their snidey comments and scum this & scum that .

I have no time for those people , no time at all :emoticon-0183-swear

Unfortunately for them from what I saw of them last night, they'll be back down in a year. Only marginally better than us just much more motivated.

A few months ago I jokingly said perhaps it was SRs plan to get relegated and "collect" the parachute payment as such. Looking back on how Saints have been, on/off the pitch, bizarre coaching set ups, the lack of a will to win, I honestly wonder if that is indeed the plan? Again I really hope that not the case. Tinhat time! Lol

That makes no sense. The club would earn far more if they stayed in the Premier League.

It would be like buying a brand new car, only to go and sell it a year later for half the price, and claim that you've made money.

Maybe Saints are being seen as a tax dodge, where all of the income that SR has made is nominally ploughed back into Saints' survival, and the balance sheet shows that SR made no money at all this year, even though their owners have all got remarkably large bonus payments.
