Is it all sunshine and roses for football players?
at 15:02 27 Mar 2024

If you can find anything I have written last season that said that "Everything" was fine when we went down I would be very surprised, I can find plenty of opinions to the contrary from those who predicted we would be in for another relegation battle this season

They say Sarcasm is the the lowest form of wit lol

I Have never said that Manning is a great full back, all I have ever done is stuck up for him a bit, because he is far from being the worst player we have ever had and has played a part in our unbeaten run.

Stewart hasn't played much, but you never know what he might do in the future, Charles has put in some decent performances . at the start of the season we thought he would be a nailed on starter, however he has been in and out of the side too much to get an sort of consistency.

That great expert on football "The rest of the fanbase" achievements over the past 50 years have been so accurate some of those inspiring observations have included;

1975- Hounded Lawrie McMenemy at every home game throwing abuse and sometimes more at him as he walked along the touchline

1986-1989 - Barracked Tim Flowers as the worst keeper ever seen in a Saints shirt, who would never make it at the top level and championed John Burridge.

January 2023- Declared James Bree as a second rate League One player and only signed because he was Nathan Jones man.

Feb 2023- Declared Ruben Selles as the saviour of Southampton FC as he wasn't Nathan Jones, made up a song of praise about Ruben Selles which I just didn't seem to understand.

March 2023- Declared Ruben Selles as the most clueless manager since Nathan Jones and stopped singing songs about him

October 2023 - Declared James Bree as the saviour of Southampton football club at left back. as he was not Ryan Manning.

Just because the masses are in unison, it doesn't always mean they are right, lots of people are premature about a player or manager in either way and get it wrong.

I understand that Portsmouth FC's PR department are locked in discussions with Pat From Poole, they are filming a series with John Portsmouth Football Club Westwood where everyday he will put pins in an effigy of a Saints player and then ceremonially burn it in a voodoo ceremony to try and hex Southampton's promotion hopes.

Pat is on the verge of signing up for 4 of these days and so far it is only money that is an issue as Pat can't afford to pay what they are asking to take part in the Manning day,

Mr Smith walks into a bank London and asks for the loan officer. He says he's going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow £5000. The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for the loan, so Mr Smith hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce, which costs quarter of a million pounds.

“The car is parked on the street in front of the bank,” says Mr Smith, “and I have all the necessary papers.”

The bank officer agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan. After Mr Smith leaves, the loan officer, the bank's president and all their colleagues enjoy a good laugh at the man for using a £250,000 Rolls Royce as collateral against a £5,000 loan.

One of the employees drives the Rolls into the bank's underground garage and parks it there. Two weeks later, Mr Smith returns, repays the £5000 and the interest, which comes to £15.41.

The loan officer says, "Sir, I must tell you, we’re all a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and discovered that you’re a multimillionaire. Why would you bother to borrow £5,000?"

The man replies, "Where else in London can I park my car for two weeks for only £15.41?"

What hurt the most a poor Ryan manning performance in an unbeaten run, or coming home to find your house burgled

It will take a few points that is for sure, but if we win our two games in hand then we would only be 3 points behind Leeds .

This season has seen all the clubs at the top have dodgy periods, Leeds & Ipswich are going through good periods so perhaps due another dodgy one, we have a bigger squad we can cope better, but ultimately it is still in our own hands if we beat all three

Brooks only played an hour of last weeks game against Finland and he has 3 days to recover after this one, it will be monitored to see how much time he plays, but if he say only plays another hour tonight, then 2 hours football in the last 3 weeks isnt a lot.

I would think he will play Brooks on Friday and perhaps Fraser on Monday.

More worried about Bednarek who played the full 90 minutes last week

Personally I think it sometimes has to change for games, Ie I would probably play Manning against Boro but slot in Bree for the trip to Ipswich but for Friday I would go for.
