    Anyway, she was hardly having a pop at him. If we go back to her original point, she explained it thusly:

    "I'm just very sceptical when manager or players come out with that crap.

    Especially when there is no likelyhood of what they are spouting happening.

    It's makes good PR for the individual that gullible fans swallow"

    That's hardly having a pop. Ya'll need to be less defensive and stop attacking her for having a point even if you disagree with it. Regardless of her motivation, that doesn't make her point invalid. It may or may not be true, but everyone is entitled to an opinion.

    Agree with Pompey, I admit that Irene does appear to have ulterior motives, but you've all assumed way too much and been far too critical!

    There's quite a lot of irony in a post which states "you've all assumed way too much", ignoring that there are several different views being expressed here - but one unanimous factor is that we are all perplexed by her motivations. If you check, I said it was not really what she was saying but those "ulterior motives" you mention that cause the reaction she gets.

    If someone says something one time and we jump down their throats, that is assumption. If they do it 37 times...?

    I'm not defensive, I just find her comments funny, strange and a little bit sad....

    Oh of course you can't have an opinion Pompey.

    Think what I've learned here is that Ive hit a sore point. The actual worry by a few is I have a point so it's easier to attack me and say I have a motive than face facts what I think could well be true

    Can you at least explain why it bothers you so much? By your own admission you are not a Saints fan and i'm sure that Koeman's comments were aimed at Saints fans. Surely it is up to us whether we choose to believe him or not.

    I don`t get it either - she`s a Rangers fan, with no affinity for Saints. I wonder if she shows up like this on other boards ?

    PL - you haven't had to put up with the same **** all the time. So despite what you saying sounding reasonable as an isolated opinion, you need to see the whole picture.

    Utter bollocks Laura. You hang on to your new friend and believe you have hit a sore point.

    It's easy to attack you (yes, that's what I'm doing), because you only post about two things: Boric or Koeman. It's so transparent it's untrue.

    Please just for once answer one question: why do you only post about Boruc or to dig at Koeman?

    * by only post, I mean 95%

    The really sad thing is, that she's going to end up leaving a sour taste about a player that most fans still have a huge soft spot for.

    She only posts about Koeman because Boruc isn't here any more. That being said, I just ignore her now. It's easier then trying to have a convo with her.

    Then your not too bright and neither are your buddies if you allow someone on a Internet forum to affect your opinion of people.

    I'm entitled to my opinion. If you don't like it tough. There is an answer. Do not engage or ignore it.

    I've never been offensive unlike a few of you and I haven't been on this thread.

    Most of you have taken a koeman thread and made it about boruc

    If you're going to attack someone's intellect, you really should do so using correct grammar. Just a suggestion. Try "you're not too bright".

    Whilst we're trying to help - here's another suggestion. Reside on a board where you support the team. If you support only a player, perhaps reside on the board of the team he is actively playing for.

    Well Laura, I can't speak for the others, but your attempts at undermining Ron's popularity have sadly failed with me...I love him even more now!...:1980_boogie_down:

    Sorry I will check every word i write first, grammar police.

    Guess what in a free world I can post what I like where I want and as it is in a non attacking manner I do not see issue with it.

    You on other hand like attacking me even when you have no reason and having an opinion on something Roanld Koeman says because I'm not licking his backside does not mean it's an agenda or a problem with him. It's a view on what he says.

    You and some of your buddies have turned this into a 4 page thread mostly made up of having a go at me.

    No need to do that, I'm just suggesting that you think before calling someone stupid. That's attacking someone.

    Laura, I'll make this my final point in engaging with you because it's getting boring as hell. Why are you here though? You're not a Saints fan, and you seem to only crop up, as FLT says, when there's an opportunity to have a dig at Koeman or ramble on about Boruc. People are tired of that because it's terribly boring and adds nothing to discussion when it's done ad nauseum. It weakens everything you say to a point where people will just bite back at you, regardless of whether you're making a valid point or not. Read the fable of the boy crying wolf.

    If you've nothing else to add to a Saints forum other than that, I have no idea why you waste any time here. You'd be better off slagging off Koeman on a Pompey forum and talking about Boruc on a Bournemouth one. All you do here is antagonise people, and if that's your intent I'd strongly suggest getting some other hobbies.

    I'm waiting for Laura to accuse someone of being sexist, she's running out of arguments...

    There is no argument.

    I can say what I like and give my opinion.

    You don't like it then tough luck but I view that as deep down you all don't want to face the truth in my opinion so it's easier to attack me
