    WTF is this constant digging away at the club ...

    ... if people are so against SAFC why don't they support someone else, anyone else <doh>

    How about Newcastle who haven't won a decent trophy since 1955 who've sold two decent players and only signed 4 nondescript players.

    Two are back up keepers and the other two won't start tomorrow ...

    ... oh yeah, and they're owned by murderers.

    Not sure if you’ve misunderstood my message or if you’re talking about the other guy.

    im not digging the club I’m laughing saying we’re spending money by using savings on a bloke that’s still our player.

    apologies if I’ve misread yours too

    **** all at that price.

    I don’t believe he’ll be sacked but the stick he’d receive if we don’t sign a competent forward would be fully deserved.

    Talking to everyone who's finding ever more inventive ways to have a dig at the club.

    No matter who we sign, Browne for example, what stadium improvements, which players we give new contracts there's always a moan ...

    ... Poveda is an invalid, KLD is pocketing the vast profits, Speakman is hated by everyone.

    It's a new season, I'm excited about going on Sunday, and can't hear mesel think for all the weeping and wailing.

    It won't be long until there's a thread about the accounts or the state of the car park or how many f*cking seagulls there are <doh>

    To be fair, there are far too many seagulls loitering around the car park like!

    Probably in the minority, but I’ve been to a few talk ins with Speakman, and I actually think he’s a likeable bloke. We need a striker, he said he gets that and wants a striker. Not sure what parameters he’s working within, and why it keeps proving so elusive but I’d take him over a De Fanti character all day every day.

    They've got X , SMB, Facebook etc where they can have link minded folk who are unhappy with the club, what they're doing etc. Why bleed onto this small forum as well. Does me head in. Plenty of other places

    Of course he his. He's structuring the club professionally, you can see that by some of the roles that pop up. He's also hell bent of the Strategy and the people he thinks help to deliver it. That's what that fella at man u, formally newcastle Brighton England has done so well.

    If that's where your knowledge lies mate, it's not the greatest of opinions, doesn't matter what league they come from

    The thing is though, if he signs and scores loads of goals his value will go up imo - he has only just turned 30 and could still have another 6-7 years ahead of him.

    Clubs in a brilliant place atm. The feel good factor is back. I’m really taking to RLB. Players look like they’re fighting for the shirt again.

    my only ‘dig’ is we don’t have a senior centre forward. Other than that I’m really impressed with everything the club is doing and there’s still time for my one problem.

    Personally, I think we'll have a loan in from the prem by Monday or Tuesday. My money would be on Mubama or Lankshear. Then we'll get Mendy at somepoint towards the end.

    For what it's worth, I can see the positives and I can see the negatives, of seemingly having most of our eggs in the Mendy basket.

    But given so many have touted lads from Scotland or League 2, just shows there's an agenda.
