Not sure it's that clear. He was injured for most of last season and looking good beforehand - I absolutely get the logic of offering him a new deal. I also recall the overwhelming majority of people on here were pretty damn pleased when it was announced. Maybe hindsight is a wonderful thing and all...

Thanks ref. Might stop him diving. Stupidity.

Yup. He had a right mard on from the first minute and spent most of the game arguing with someone.
Not his greatest game for us....

dave the minion

Sack all of them. No battle. No fight. It’s why we won’t go up. Attitude. Too many with not enough fight, scrap. Evatt with the suicide subs too. They don’t represent what I want or expect. Bolton is a working town that has a team that at the very least always fights. This team doesn’t. It’s not so...

dave the minion

Possibly/Probably. Likely all the other 8 games we've played as well.......

How confident are you that we're going to lose?

100% I reckon, just like Tuesday....

dave the minion

Think it was a tribute to an ex-Southampton team mate who died recently?

dave the minion

I also think his appetite is always questionable. Does he really want it? I can see Bod straining every inch to do well even if it doesn’t always work. But Dan to me at times looks like he needs reminding he has to make the run or close his opponent down. Also, be wary of confirmation bias: we all ...

dave the minion

How about we just let IE get in with it.

Maybe he thinks it's of more value to give the senior players a confidence boost by leaving them on?

dave the minion

Yep, and potential saviour in waiting JCH was kept pretty quiet (goal aside, obviously!!!) for most of the game by our reserve back 3.....

Do not fancy this game one bit. Hope I am wrong.

Not like you?

dave the minion

I see that Iles had to post a warning on his Deadline Day blog about foul mouthed messages and rants saying that some were actually libellous. He's had to delete a fair few. What a fine set of fans. Do we have bigger kn*b-head fans than most teams, or all they all the same do you think? I don't see...

dave the minion

Exactly. Evatt out! Evatt out! I suspect Dan also has something to do with it......

I've heard that there's been some unforeseen issues with the screens and WiFi etc, but it's progressing.

Why are people so cynical and looking for issues that don't exist?

dave the minion

Q: Can fans not now shout at players or the manager to f off at matches when when we are poor or getting beat, should they be playing really bad or the manager is making really poor subs etc ? Sorry, do you really need to ask that?!?! Simple answer - in case you actually nee'd it - is no. Of course...

dave the minion

Bottom line we need promotion or this season is a failure to progress and meet targets. Sweet Jesus. Give it a rest please. FFS we're 5 games into a 46 game season. We've won 3, drawn 1, lost 1. We're not yet out of any cups. We're 3rd in the (very early) league table The world - as far as I can te...

dave the minion

I agree. We lost - and always knew we would lose - our best and 2nd best players at the end of the season. We were always going to be weaker as a result. I'd argue it would have been nigh on impossible to replace.tjr quality of those 2 in our position. However, we've made the best fist we.can of rep...

dave the minion

Missing our first 2 choice centre backs for lengthy periods ain't going to help either, don't forget...

dave the minion

Ok

So, name me a keeper.and RWB who we could have signed (affordable/attainable).

Genuine question - who out there could we have signed that wouldn't be have satisfied the hunger for improvement,but we chose not to and lost out on?

dave the minion

Don't disagree with most of that to be fair, although I do think we need to overlay the criticism with a dose of realism. Replacing one of the brightest young talents in goal was also going to be virtually impossible, so yes, we are probably weaker there. However, Baxter is a good keeper. It's possi...

dave the minion

Keeper is poor, good shot stopper but he's got nothing else. Iredale is shit, I thought he was decent before his injury but unless he dramatically improves he's just awful. Both fullbacks are exceptionally average, we're asking the world of them and neither can deliver anything close. Dempsey back ...

I don't like it. It's exculpatory bullshit

And with that, my friend, I do believe you win an internet prize for the best word of the thread (and maybe, even, the whole forum......)
