We'll Settle For Eight 00:45 - Aug 26 with 2070 viewsBrianMcCarthy

What a graceless thing for a club to say. A hopeless miss-match against a minnow and this is what your club tweets?

Shame.

And from a club that’s been on the wrong end of two 9-0 defeats in the last couple of years 😱

I'm going to attempt to give Southampton the benefit of the doubt here, and their 'we'll settle for 8' is in fact a self deprecating reference to the 9-0 defeats of recent times

i'm basing this on the first tweet Brian quoted having 'surely not...' when at 8-0, which is an obvious reference to the 9-0's

I mean, it's not a hill i'm willing to die on, and i'm sure that all at Newport were thrilled by the hiding, but i think this is attempting to be more self-referential than overtly externally crass against Newport

Can we not knock it?

Not very clever from Southampton there as it will come back to haunt them after all they are a "little" club.

What is more dismaying is the manner in which most clubs from all divisions treat the competition with disdain. Man City have won it for last 4 years and have shown it some respect at least albeit they have more resources than most.

Watching West Brom get torn a new one last night after making 11 changes from the weekend maddens the hell and depresses me in equal measures.

I think you're right on this, people in social media world not realising how their comments might be read in real world, rather than spitefulness towards Newport.. There was some funny stuff directed at them by Ipswich when they matched their 9-0.

I think you might be right on this , Jeff.

Mea culpa.

I've seen the adverts. It's After Eight that counts.
