Reply | Dragan Solak Suggests That Transfer Flop Can Still Be A Hit At St Mary's

If memory serves, Beattie was not heralded at the time as a star signing.
He was clearly young and raw at the time, and his arrival was a bit in the background compared to Mark Hughes.
He clearly however had a high workrate, and most fans warmed to him because of that.
Downs needs to work an awful lot harder as a player to have any chance of winning the fans over.
You can almost forgive an appalling first touch when the player is clearly giving 100%.
Downs shows no sign of doing this. |

Couldn’t agree more.
The play-off home leg was right up there, futile though if ultimately was |

Rightly or wrongly, we are going to be box office this season, so I expect SKY to piss us about quite a bit with re-scheduling. |

I don't think the fixture release is until next Thursday.
I think our first game of the season is actually in the Carabao Cup.
I reckon if we have Lincoln away first game it would be on a Friday night. Not sure how many people would like that. |

I think I read recently that a season ticket at Totton next season is nearly £400.
I think that’s a far harder figure to justify. [Post edited 17 Jun 6:32]

If you go to every home game, it’s probably about £25-£30 per game.
I think that’s reasonable compared with other entertainment options, such as going ten-pin bowling or to the cinema.
Nothing is cheap nowadays. |

According to that interview Charlie Austin did 6 months or so ago, Hassenhutl used to do this fairly regularly at Saints. |

But I thought I had read last week (possibly from Alfie House or Adam Blackmore, I forget who) that we had actually offered him a 2-year deal, but it was on a reduced weekly wage, hence Stewart turned it down (?). |

Is it that we couldn't get insurance for Ross Stewart?
Or that we could, but the premiums were deemed excessive relative to the potential return?
If the latter, it is interesting thinking on the Club's part, given that we have just paid out over £3 million for a striker who is over a year older than Stewart.
No criticism of Larin intended here. Just citing him to make a point. |

Does this mean no more representation at the Fans Forum for the ladies' team, and no more questions from that oddball stating that it would be good if we could applaud the away fans for turning up, in the same way that fans of the ladies' team do? |

We shouldn't lose money on him.
Overall, he's been a good signing for us.
He was bought when we went into the Championship first time round, and he did pretty well. We probably all too easily forget that he is still quite young.
It would be interesting to see how he would do in a moderately successful Prem team. |

I do think it's a bit arrogant of fans over here to complain about kick-off times.
Danny Baker seems to be particularly outspoken about it on Twitter.
It is the global game, so we have to expect some of this.
The next one is in Spain / Portugal / Morocco, so that will be fine.
It is in truth one of a number of reasons why I increasingly prefer the Euros to the World Cup. [Post edited 15 Jun 16:16]

Depends on the circumstances.
Given that we now have 5 or 6 players who are arguably too good for the League we are in, it will be a case of either:-
- keeping as many of them as we can, or;
- selling some or most of them and replacing them without weakening the team overall
But ultimately it's all about improving the team in a financially responsible way. |

I will be amazed if he doesn't get them back up.
But that's more a reflection of the general standard in League 1 than a glowing review of him as a manager. |

I'd be amazed if Boro could pay the money that Stewart is presumably looking to be earning.
It wouldn't surprise me if they went all out to sign him purely to spite us.
In which case, it would be a real shame if he got injured again. |

Hopefully he will have a good World Cup and then we can get some good money in for him.
His defending is poor and he seems to inadvertently do lots of handballs. |
