Maybe the article was a Comedy of Errors and just a Winter's Tail - hope so, All's Well That Ends well
I note that Martin Samuels is wondering what Tadic is up to...as he points out that Dusan has played more under Puel than he did under Koeman.
Well I wish he'd get better at diving, then we'd have had a penalty on Sunday. He is rubbish at that.
If Dusan is unsubable today, we will win no problem. Come on son, make the gaffers job difficult.....in the right way.
Richard III made that mistake and ended up being buried in a Car Park! So wise so young, they say, do never live long. (Richard, Act 3 Scene 1)
Strange situation. I'm sure Claude will say that he makes decisions for footballing reasons, but no human being is immune to outside factors. The media will jump on him whatever happens...if he subs Dusan, they will say he was proving a point.....if he doesn't, they will say Dusan has won.
You simply won't find that kind of lateral thinking on SaintsWeb. The above is a small example of the greatness that this forum occasionally rises to. Superb teamwork too.
Spent a few years there, being a member, and then helping to mod it. You'll appreciate that most of it was during the Rupert Lowe years and relegation. Thing is, they haven't really changed in their attitude, despite the far better foundations that Saints have underneath them now. Drove me up the wall in the end, back then. I quit around 2009, and came to Not606 via PlasticSaints and BBC606 [MotoGP section] in 2011. People are far more tolerant here, on the whole and respectful, which allows for different opinions, humour, and as you say, occasional intelligent info exchanges and banter. No regular on this forum says things like, listen pal..., in that sarcastic, slightly sinister way. Or if they do they get short shrift. And which Saints forum has regular contributors from down the east end of the M27. Tbf, they reciprocate on the Pompey Not606 too. And that's pretty much unknown elsewhere too.
To be fair there is quite a few sensible level headed posters over there too... but as our biggest forum it's also full of a lot of absolute ****ing fruitcakes. Don't know how you long you've been on here but an old poster from here (and 606) posts there in Lord Duckhunter... saying that theres probs others too.
So Dusan plays the full 90 minutes in the last two matches, two wins and no second half goals conceded. No one likes a smart ass
