    I don't see us getting many players in during the January window, Ralph professed himself to be happy with the depth of the squad on more than one occasion this season.
    Fans are never satisfied with their team's squad.

    I see an exciting second half of the season. Sitting pretty at 14th, could we scale the dizzy heights of 13th?!

    He is wrong then. We are a Romeu injury away from having real problems and a Romeu + one other CM injury away from being absolutely ****ed

    And that is not a case of “never being satisfied”. It is just numbers

    And I wasn’t talking about January anyway. Why would I be when Broja’s loan is up in the summer and any extension (negating the need to a striker signing) would be in the summer

    11th - 14th would represent progress from last season and it's probably where we should be considering the lack of investment. Today's result could just be a turning point for us mentally, it must've knocked the confidence having dropped so many points from winning positions.
    I would say that our performances overall this season should have seen us much nearer to the top ten personally.

    Yeah if we secured Broja for another year then I think we'd definitely be okay striker wise and we can then focus on the 'wide' players.

    We are Saints, not Man City.

    Mid-table and a good FA Cup run will do me this season.

    I don’t know what some of you want out of eleven blokes kicking a ball around. I still profess that a large portion of our fans (and therefore the electorate and general population) are old men, yelling at clouds, all the while at war with their own world and reality. Madness.

    Good win. Fun game. Cool stuff. Five ****ing stars from me.

    Yeah I know. I know.

    I guess the pipe dreams of the Cortese era haven’t completely died.

    I liked the comment where someone stated the spot of the foul is where it starts and not where it ends. What a knob!

    I can't believe how arrogant those West Ham fans are on KUMB. 6th in the league plus in the knockout stages of the EL and you get quotes like "I hate being a West Ham fan" and "we have so many **** players". I knew there was a good reason why I hate that club.

    Living in London, I’ve made a bit of a study of this subject. These are my scientific findings:
    Gooners; generally well behaved, easy going, perhaps because lacking in passion

    Chelsea; absolute yobs, no doubt, but quite good humoured yobs on the whole. I’d be good humoured if Roman Abrahamovitch owned Saints.

    Spurs; something of the night about that lot. Long suffering though, they never ****ing win anything but they still keep coming back.

    West Ham; all auditioning for Towie, all done a bit of boxing, all have a story about their granddad and the Kray’s. ****ers, mostly, tbph

    Ooh I hadn’t even thought about doing that which is odd because I have been getting a lot of joy from foxestalk and grandoldteam recently
