After a shocking display tonight and allegedly swearing at children behind the goal will he ever play for Saints again?
According to a friend who was there but in a different part of the ground, said he had talked to people who heard it.
Nearly lived up to his nickname of Four-Past. Atrocious goalie and guy by the sounds of it. Just end his contract Saints, he'll never play in the first team as long as there is life on earth.
Never have rated him cant believe he came as part of the Bale deal!!! I went to the Walsall game last season and we sent young James Shea home in the warm up couldn't even cross the ball in for Davis it either went miles over the top to the other side or behind the goal not once in 10 mins did Davis catch the ball and we lost 1-0. I always blamed Forecast for that loss!!!
If he really did go and swear at some children, then maybe he might end up with a termination of his contract...
As far as I'm concerned he can **** right off. I normally have at least some respect for professionals, even those in the vein of Ant Pulis because at least he never did anything unprofessional. But assuming even one of the stories surrounding Forecast is true (take your pick from tonight's swearing at little kids, to smacking a woman in town, to getting in frequent bar fights for ****s and giggles etc) then I find it hard to justify him being called a "professional footballer", with such an outrageous lack of professionalism. On top of all of this he's basically stealing money from the club, sapping up wages with absolutely no return (except maybe to improve confidence as the likes of Radhi Jaidi manage to round him in training)
So you don't like Barnard either Don't care about Forecast really. He obviously isn't good enough but I'm not gonna get angry about it. I know what kids are like these days and sometimes they deserve a bit of stick.
With the emergency loan system, I don't see why we need a third full-time goalie in the squad anyway. Surely if we do need a keeper suddenly, we could get in an emergency loan, or stick one of our promising youngsters on the bench?
I don't, really, no. I respect him considerably more than Forecast though because according to all reports he's changed his ways and wasn't entirely to blame (whereas it seems Forecast causes trouble for a laugh, not that I can be sure on this), and although it shouldn't make a difference, it does, and I respect Barnard more because he's actually decent on the pitch.
having wasted £12 tonight i dont think any of those wearing stripes deserved them their performance was woeful pathetic and i dont know how they can consider themselves part of the saints team this takes nothing away from the spitfires they were compact played as a unit spent 90% of the game in our half and thoroughly deserved to win by the margin they did. if the saints players out there tonight have to play for the first team due to injuries suspensions etc and show this level of performance then i can see us being in trouble
Exactly - which shows that Adkins and co have no faith in Forecast anyway. Get rid and reduce the wage bill a bit in my opinion. How long has he got left on the seemingly gazillion-year contract he signed anyway?
