    What are you talking about? Who is saying you have no right to state your opinion?

    What you don't have is the right to make grandiose statements without having them challenged.

    And on all of this we agree. I've never, ever said that you aren't entitled to an opinion, but I'm entitled to question your opinion, particularly when it's contradicted by all available evidence, without being told that I "know **** all about football".

    I enjoy them being challenged, the more the merrier, but I don't need to "provide evidence" to every opinion. That's mental.

    Sorry, where has anybody said that? Evidence was provided which contradicted your opinion, but according to you that's inadmissable?

    I can't believe no one has never said that to you before in a football discussion. You took it more personally than I expected.

    You can question me all you want.

    But I'm glad we've now settled and agreed that Ramirez was poor yesterday.

    That doesn't say you need to provide evidence for every statement. Nothing like it.

    Supporting an opinion with a statistic? That's unlike you! :wink:

    We have a defensive midfielder who's barely played in those 3 months. Could those two facts be related I wonder?

    I'm throwing myself headlong into the forum clique! I want to belong.

    We need again wand. If I could wave it and magically have Lovren with 5 games under his belt and Wanyama with 5 full games under his, then we'd be a very tough unit to score against again. Unfortunately life/football isn't like that.

    Don't know the answers to the rest of it but I am beginning to think we need that core (add a fitter/trimmer Boruc to that too) in place to get back to how we were looking. Some like stats and some twist stats to suit. When those three had come out of pre-season looking fit and strong, so did Saints.

    Just about what I was typing while you posted. Some statistician will use stats to tell me he gives the ball away more than the others. He does. When he was fit, we looked harder to beat.

    As long as you do that with full unbridled passion and 100% effort with rolled up sleeves while you type, we will ignore the quality of any posts or mistakes you make and accept you with open arms.

    I would participate in this but the exchanges with CBK remind me so much of those I attempted with GMI.
    Really pointless. "Our season is over" gave the game away to me.
    Oh, I forgot. I am so stupid, I didn't bother reading his posts properly.<doh>

    Don't worry Channonfodder, it's a football internet forum, it's really not that important. Is it?

    I've done the "12 Steps" but this being accepted on t'internet malarky is THE challenge of a lifetime. One that I'm up for.

    Can I have my own hashtag? #makeCBKoneofthegang
