| Top 3 things about Sekou Mara 13:57 - Jan 9 with 1302 views | PatfromPoole |
1. A shirt with his name on will be relatively cheap in the Club Shop / Megastore / whatever it is called.
2. He is outstanding in training, particularly in placing cones out on the pitch.
3. He saves the Club a big wedge on the washing bill due to an absence of sweat and mud on his kit.
I feel this truly showcases that I can focus on the positives. |  |

You are right Pat, but it also highlights the lack of research you put into your posts.
By your own admission you were in the Saints megastore yesterday, I was there last Thursday and what it was easy to spot is the rows of replica shirts, but none has the names of players on it.
You have to pay the same price for the shirt then pay for whoever's name is being put on it, the only difference in cost is the number of letters for the name.
From this perspective Mara would cost less than any other shirt other than James Bree, so you do have a point.
2. Cones are so 1990's, these days they are little plastic discs, we scrapped the cones after a 3-1 defeat at Staplewood under Ian Branfoot.
3. As above mud is also so 1990's the St Mary's pitch has everything bar mud in it's make up.
Obviously only signing good players who have long names is part of the strategy of Sport Republic, they are only interested in profit so a big signing has to have at least 10 letters, luckily for Saints this seasons two heroes Adam & Stuart Armstrong make that cut as they need their initials added to the 9 letters of their surname.
But look at it a little closely and the good players have at least 10 letters
Harwood-Bellis
Walker Peters
A Armstrong
S Armstrong
Amo - Ameyaw
Look at previous squad
Caleta-car
Elyounoussi
Livramento
Maitland-Niles
Ward-Prowse
Vestergaard
Gabbiadini
All signed with the aim of maximising printing on the back of shirts income SR aren't interested in football just getting their money back

I've just checked and it is the same price regardless (£16!!). So Harwood Bellis is the best value for money. Bree and Mara are the worst (in regard to shirt cost 😉) |  | | |

1; he has more vowels in his name than consonants.
2; Mask a Euro is an anagram you can make from his name.
3; err, he has now scored more goals than Broja ever scored for us (*this needs fact checking as I couldn’t be arsed to do so myself) |  |

Some of these comments may explain why Ali Dia didn't'last long at Saints or sell many shirts with his name ? | | | |
