    I don't really think Potch proving some saints fans wrong, i.e. by Spurs finishing above us was a real upset. It wouldn't have bee unexpected among many experts though credit to him all the same. A prediction of Potch failing would be more due to the natural desire of fans from his former club for him to do badly. A fair assessment would be he did well, though not exceptional compared to expectations and the real surprise was how close we were to Spurs at the end of the season.

    As for the has the bubble burst comment; that honestly must have been a bit tongue in cheek :) After 2 games its hardly the time to ask and any suggestion that the Everton win was totally against all expectations is a bit disrespectful to them.

    Time will tell and although we're unlikely to occupy the dizzy heights of the top 4 for half a season this time round or keep finishing higher each season, as we have over the last 5 years, I trust that the Saints structure should be sturdy enough to keep us there or there abouts.

  3. You got me! Yes, it was.

    I was only trying to start a bit of banter to lighten the atmosphere.

    I expect you to bounce back from this. Koeman is too decent a manager to let this home loss get to the players.

    Nah mate, just some Hogs 3 overcoming my inbuilt filter. Truth is i don't really give a **** about spurs. I have a dislike of the snake you call a manager but i just cant bring myself to care about the rest of your clubs existence.....like the mushrooms on my bathmat you're just kinda there, not serving any purpose but not hurting anyone either.

  6. Most of the boards I visit I have to, as it's the only way of my guaranteeing a sensible response.

    By the way, a heads' up, lads... Steer well clear of the Sunderland board, today. It's getting messy over there.

    There's a lot of good humour on that board if you look closely enough.

    All I would say to the Saints lads is chin up and look at us, there's always somebody worse off <laugh>

  8. I do not doubt you, my friend.

    I know, from personal experience, that when the chips are down, the last thing that some fans want is some twat chirping up with a whole load of banter!

    I think if I were to pop onto your board now, with my style of "in yer face" banter, some of your lads would go into spasm and begin foaming at the mouth!
    <laugh>

    I know it's probably a male thing - but why do people insist on responding to idiots like the original poster who clearly get their sad little jollies out of trying to provoke people?

    Wouldn't you <laugh>

    You can get upset and angry which will spoil your day, or you can just laugh at it and get through the day!

    It's a valiant but ultimately failing attempt to point out that he's being an arse. Agreed though, it's pointless. I'll desist (though it does worry me that I genuinely thinks of himself as a wit).

    No problem with you and see you again soon. Today was poor but I do not think it will reflect a typical performance this season. Great point for you today, well done.
