So this is pretty disappointing. Maybe I'm a soft touch, and I realise other global sporting brands have had the finger pointed at them morals wise, but being anti-poaching it's frustrating to see a brand we're so heavily associated with, condoning such things as this.

Nothing illegal going on here (unfortunately). It's part of the culture in large areas of America and it's an American brand of course.

Oh yeh, unfortunately I realise it's nothing illegal. I also realise someone's got to manufacture and brand the gear that they use. There's just something about a girl posing next to a beautiful stag with a huge crossbow next to her, that riles me up the wrong way.
 
I agree....I was horrified when I saw recently that UnderArmour backed this kind of hunting as a sport. People hunt all over the world, but using crossbows or bows and arrows (when you aren't an aboriginal hunting for food) is wrong.

For me that's a deal breaker right there. You hunt for food, not pleasure. If you're desperate, you hunt [or gather enough berries]. Don't want my football club associated with a sports clothing company that supports sports/pleasure hunting. I'm sure the Wycoming Whitetail got a heck of a lot of pleasure dying for that photograph.

A blog showing that stats can be read to mean anything. Opta shows that we have lost more points from a winning position than any other side. The author suggests that this means our strikers are doing their bit and the defence is poor. I feel the opposite. Our defence lets in few goals, but, if you are not scoring better, a single goal can lead to a draw or a loss. Oh, for Rickie Lambert in his prime.
 
Rumours still circulating about us selling Virgil to United in January. Even if we wanted to sell him, why would we sell him midseason when he would fetch the same price or more in the summer.
Can't see that happening in January, summer certainly if the price is massive due to the length of his contract/age etc
Will be gutted to see yet another brilliant CB disappear but that's the life of a Saints Fan unfortunately
 
We wont sell in January. There is no situation where we would do so. If the money was too good to turn down, well then that would still be the same in the summer. Personally I think we will keep him beyond this season anyway, but no chance of a January move for sure.
 
A classic example of Merson's logic when talking about Virgil: "I'm surprised nobody has come in for him, when Stones has gone for £50m, there you've got more of a finished article than Stones. The way things are going, I'd say he's worth £30m". Excuse me but by that logic he should be worth more not less.
