*Official* English Football Season 2012-13 - Page 133

Only possible thing I can think of is Adkins was struggling to convince better players to come to Southampton, and this change would help their recruitment over the rest of the window. For this far fetched idea to be feasible, means they would have to be planning a serious splurge in Jan, which is a risky move when you're bottom half and a real risk for the drop. Either way, the directors are clueless

I wonder if they're trying to take a page out of QPR's book tbh, and give Adkins the Warnock treatment. Long term future and image of the club etc... Still totally illogical given the context, but it's the most sensible explanation I can think of.

That story on fletcher makes me feel bad about my comment that I'd rather have bowel surgery without anasthetic than spend a single moment in the company of Ikki.

Big win for Fred's chaps in Geordie land today.

First ever victory up there, apparantly.

That 8 year contract The Toon slapped on Pardew looking better and better business by the week.

Going down with the Villa, as the old song used to have it.

I don't dislike him as much as the fat little Scottish ****, but still nice to stick one up Pards - still think we'll go down, but where there's life there's hope

Fat little Scottish ****?

We're not getting 4th. Disaster.

BoyBrumby · 20-01-2013, 06:57 AM

Interesting how the ref thought that wasn't a goalscoring opp.

We've regressed so far from the home game versus the Chavs where, honestly, they were a bit spawny to win with two arsey goals.

Men against boys here tho. WTF was Diaby doing for the second? Sarries v Edinburgh looking more and more tempting, tbh...

This is tragic. Foul on Coq for the first and not a pen IMO. Not that it excuses how we've played. Sagna's done
