    Saint , Martin o'neill has managed three bigger clubs than Southampton , if you could ask him the biggest 10 games , he has ever managed in ??? Answer would three or four champions league games , three or four old firm games and Scottish cup finals against hibs and Dundee utd . meaningless games in the epl at the end of day come nowhere near the huge games he managed in charge of us .

    This season you've won 26 against poor, poor opposition. We've won 24 in a highly competitive league (you should try it sometime).

    Season before? 28 wins. Deluded team in North Britain? 29 wins.

    Sorry? What was your unresearched ridiculous remark again?

    Yes Harry, you're just underlining my point, because of the skewed resources in your league, ALL of O'Neills 'best' memories are Cup Finals etc. Because Celtic are ALWAYS in the ****ing things.....Aston Villa had "COMPETITION" <ok>

    This is a magnificent argument. I think you should develop it further.

    Players wages:

    I just chose a year at random, this happens to be 2003.

    £000s

    Aberdeen 5,431
    Celtic 33,079
    Dundee 4,122
    Dundee United 3,292
    Dunfermline Ath. 4,619
    Heart of Midlothian 5,116
    Hibernian 3,978
    Kilmarnock 4,282
    Livingston 4,099
    Motherwell 2,241
    Rangers 34,592


    The total spend for the whipping boys was £37180
    The total spend for the really good, brilliant twosome, was £67671

    Looks pretty skewed to me.

    The year you chose "at random" was 2003, a year which Celtic had its highest ever wage spend.

    In 2011 Blackpool operated with a total wage spend of £11.6m
    In 2011 Manchester City spent £133m on player wages.

    Is that more, or less skewed?

    Since this time, Blackpool have halved their wages.
    Given that Southampton are spending like it is going out of fashion and after tonights woeful display are likely to end up in the play-offs alongside Blackpool, I wonder what lessons you might learn from that to turn your argument around?

    I am all for your argument by the way, it is just that when it is so easily destroyed that maybe we ought to work out some kind of way of putting this argument on a solid foundation. Right now, we look stupid.
