Damion Downs agreed !!!!

Is he under 20, from outer Mongolia, got long stunning, beautiful hair, inexperienced in this league, and wears headphones worth thousands of pounds?

If not, your sensible suggestion about getting in a proper, proven goal scorer is a non starter.

Would agree with that, apart from maybe Arnstrong who came on and at least had a shot on target. It was a very poor performance but 2 wins in 2. Ipswich got knocked out by Bromley tonight. Very unconvincing but we won.

Well yeah, that's the main thing. It's very unconvincing but it's 2 wins in 2 as you say.

Flying Downs is also decent at this level.

A complete waste of money. We need goalscorers (there's plenty that are free or scoring goals in league one) not people with stunning hair from the corners of the globe. Poch was taking the p!ss.

Totally agree. But we have invested in a striker already and have about 5 others. No chance we spend another load of money. It's just Saints under Sport Republic wasting money again. Ross Stewart, Diaz etc are the ones we wasted our money on last year!!! 😠

He's genuinely a quality player. Quality players score goals.

Maybe he'll score from 30 yards one day. But misses the sitters.

It's what happens when you spend millions on an inexperienced player who scored a few goals in a vastly inferior league. Just buy a striker from England for a lot less.

Downs seemingly can't score from 1 yard. Windass was free, but we spend millions on him.

Who said on here he's good?

Great side that he's put out for early rounds of the cup. Hoping Ross Stewart can get a few to give us an option up front going forward.

Swimming pool and someone said water slides. Then Saints can sell Saints swimming shorts, Saints goggles, Saints surfboards and there would surely be a poolside bar and grill. So who here would go swimming before and after games? Who are the show offs with the six packs?

A hotel, ofcourse. That will be the next thing at St Mary's, quite probably.

I'm with you on wanting to do the away games. The Championship is a great league, as Saturday showed. The fact that we can win games is a big incentive in this league. I want to do them all, but might have to pick and choose a little bit. We have a period in October I think, when we have all 3 London teams in the same month. It would probably be cheaper to buy a ticket for the month on the train to London rather than individual tickets 3 times weekly!

So we are finding ways to generate more income, that we can add to the spreadsheets as income, which will allow us to spend more in the transfer market. We can't generate that extra income by trying to sell our shirts in India, so instead we want to encourage people to enjoy golf, bowling etc and buy a few drinks and some lunch. Our income increases, so we can spend more on the team. With that logic though, we could build a holiday camp and a theme park. This would generate so.much income.

So how would that work? We spend a fair amount to build it, pay staff to run it, assume we get little back, what do they do, hide the loss, but it allows us to spend more on transfers? Don't understand it at all

Ha. They ought to install an ice rink so that people can go ice skating.

My thoughts exactly. I went to the Dell bar on a non match day a few weeks back, all very nice, but it was completely empty. It's open from 7 in the morning to 11 at night. They had chefs, bar staff, waiting staff and no customers! Surely it's running at a loss.
