Why join Saints? Your agent tells you it is a career move but you know that you are only here to be traded on. Played infrequently enough that you give your best, only to be dropped next game to avoid rour getting broken. Stock. Everybody knows that you are not here to bring glory to Southampton, football is a necessary evil to the owners. It works both ways, of course. A dud can play so nobody wants him and sit out a lucrative and lengthy contract which with a bit of sense could set you up for life and if you know you can't expect to go much further then you could just have it made! Cynical, l know but if you know that you aren't playing for the shirt and are becoming a journeyman, then it can't feel good. Is this one reason why our players seem so demotivated? |

There is one small consolation. We are not losing every week. Our defence looks better our midfield is getting further up the pitch so if the firepower issue were to be sorted, we should be too I can't blame Still if the player doesn't hit the mark on the day. |

Ralf Hutter, Florian Schneider, Roland Barthos and Wolfgang Flur. KRAFTWERK. That would, of course involve time travel and my teenage self might just have been swayed by Debbie Harry instead! |

No, he has had nine games in the league and has two flukey wins to show for it. I long since gave up on any chance of success. I just hope we stay up. |

Would that we were a mid table side. I think everyone felt that nothing less than a convincing win would do. We got a point and a broken Ross Stewart. Business as usual. That said the manager isn't playing the match, the players are and they are supposed to know what they are doing, so why are they letting us down nearly every week? |

The opening nag screen allowed me to refuse all cookies. Now it doesn't and I have to turn off each "legitimate interest" tag manually. It has taken six minutes and 117 clicks to get here and I simply don't think it is worth my time to log in here any more if it takes this much effort every time just to view the forum. I wish you all and the Saints every success but I'm out of here. Thank you all for your support, good humour and infornative, enjoyable banter. |

After a lot of chop and change, Will appears to have decided on a team. Stability will bring confidence as the players get used to one another and our defence at last looks as though it exists. If Stewart comes good (and it has been a long time coming,) then we have the makings of a side that won't be a constant embarrassment. Glad to see Slack Jack and Bazunu dropped. McCarthy saves two out of three. Bazunu one so there are games there we would otherwise lose. I would like to see Ramsdale back as I think he is good for goal difference. Will Still is making slow but steady progress and there is finally some fight coming back into the team. |

A welcome win. Hardly convincing but a win nonetheless. Who would have thought Ross would come good? I'll reserve judgement for a bit but Like any Saints fan, I live in hope. |
