    For the first 20 minutes last night, he was Aaaaargghhtur Boruc. He did seem to settle though.

    Don't really know why he was dropped after the Spurs game, it can't just have been for kicking a water bottle at the crowd ffs. I'd settle for giving him a decent run, if that's what Nigel wants to do. At some point this season, we need to decide who's the number 1, then stick with him.

    I haven't found any of it a joke. I've found it a form of bullying. I've offered an opinion. I've never forced my opinion on anyone else

    Come on all your posts are about Boruc apart from your last 3. If you call people calling you Laura Boruc or saying your obsessed with him being bullying then you have never truly been bullied in your life. It's all light hearted and jokes, I haven't seen any one take it too far.

    A lot of people agree with your opinion on Boruc, they just think it's ridiculous that you care so much about him. Where has this bullying cry come from?

    She's almost as mental as Artur, then...

    You need to lighten up. It's 25 years since the Iron Curtain came down, you're allowed to laugh in Poland now.

    I'm also in agreement with Laura. Boruc clearly has great tallent and needs a run of games, he has experience at the highest level. I love SKD but the stakes are too high and if Adkins isn't 100% on him then we must play boruc.
    Adkins has mentioned his great attitude a couple of times since bottlegate so perhaps this is what he's been working on and explains why he didn't get a run. I also lie the idea of a slightly crazy keeper- watching grobbelar was fun!

    To be bullied...? To be picked on......? Where do you get off for goodness sake! You come on our board and start to criticise our fans and you expect us not to reply with our opinion? No body said you shouldn't have an opinion just that your opinion is ill based.

    I criticised you as fans having received the treatment I have from certain members on here. Which i havent found as a joke, ive found to be picking on someone who doesnt share the same opinion. Question is how many of you base your opinion on boruc having seen him play for last almost 8 years?!

    The question is how come you literally only post about Artur Boruc? I don't want to be mean, but it strikes me as very odd.

    You mean about Boruc or that us having opinions is bullying.

    I think Laura's stated in the past that she's a Boruc fan not a Saints fan. Nothing wrong with that at all and that would also explain why she only posts about him.

    You're right i'm not basing my opinion of him on the last 8 years. I'm basing it on the here and now, the 2012/13 season, the one where we are desperately attempting to hold onto our PL status and every goal and mistake counts. It's hard to fondly reminisce over a player you haven't seen much of.

    Signing players with big reputations and impressive careers without being critical of their current abilities is exactly what has landed QPR in the mess they currently reside in.

    Why does it matter? I'm not a Southampton fan, never have pretended to be. I have happened by almost default followed boruc's career since he joined Celtic in 05 simply because after Celtic he ended up at fiorentina who my husband supports as he is an Italian

    My interest lies in fact being a Glaswegian I am very aware of his press coverage and all that went on during his time at Celtic. I am also aware of how his two years at fiorentina went and how he was viewed by the city of Florence and it was total opposite of his image in Glasgow and even Poland and now he is back in England and the views and opinions on him are back based on what Scottish press wrote on him

    I agree. You need players who are capable of keeping you in the PL. I am not saying boruc is your goalkeeping answer but he has proven himself at the highest level but 3 games in 7 months doesn't allow anyone to see him at his best. If he gets a proper run in team you might though find your goalkeeping answer has been there since sept or maybe he has lost it. Only time and him playing will show that
