I thought he looked very raw when he came on.
Bragg seemed to give the ball away a bit too much and I think he needs time to develop before he's a starter. Hes young and will improve. We looked much tighter with JWP in next to Downes - JWP needs to get match fit thought before he can replace Bragg as a starter. |

I think we took 5 players from city's youth team that year and the following given Wilcox's knowledge of their academy - Bazunu, edozie, Lavia, Charles and THB (loan with obligation to buy).
3 worked out, 2 not so much. I think that's an ok return? |

Dibbling a last minute loan to us?
This is more a mischief post for Solent Toffee, however, I would assume if the loan goes through it will diminish Dibblings game time potential and he's at an age he should be playing not sitting on the bench/out of the matchday squad altogether. |

Reply | Southampton Fans Up In Arms About Spurs & Liverpool Legends Events At St Mar
at 15:41 20 Aug 2026
An alternative thought would be that NLY fans might be quite upset that their "legends" are raising money by co-opting Spurs' franchise for another team's financial benefit (and, I'm sure, the legends are being well paid too).
Whilst I can't see the Spurs one being popular, I imagine, sadly, the Liverpool one will be a sell out as would a Man Utd one too... Still can't understand how people form an attachment to teams the opposite end of the country. |

Need to be a bit sharper and attack with more pace. Too much playing it backwards when getting close the opponents box rather than taking the man on and keeping them on the back foot. Plus we gifted them both their goals with terrible decisions.
I thought Downes was outstanding and Bragg did well too. The keeper made some good punched clearances but can't really be faulted for either goal (especially the second when everyone stood off expecting a cross rather than challenging). |

Players in all sports hide behind their agents. "I love the club, but my agent handles the money side". Panacea for all greedy and self-interested behavior.
However, I'm not sure we want to start legal action against players - who will want to join us if they think we'll sue if they act according to their agents recommendation? |

Reply | The World Cup
at 23:22 9 Jun 2026
Interestingly there is very little fanfare here and no real signage or advertising trying to hype it up. To be fair, NYC is abuzz with the Knicks being in the NBA finals for the first time in 27 years and most New Yorkers are very excited about that instead. I've been here well over 20 years and ironically this World Cup feels like the least anticipated World Cup among the natives that follow football (the soccer variety).
However, talking to some of the dads at my kids' school on the weekend, they are all super put off by how expensive it is and how Trump is trying to "sports wash" himself through both this and the LA Olympics in 2 years' time. And these guys can afford the tickets and you'd expect them to be the prime target for overpriced experiences (one of them is somehow a committed Arsenal fan despite being born on Staten Island and travelled for the CL final). My guess is the ticket prices will plummet and some of the less sexy ties will feature half full stadiums as ticket resellers realize they can't price gouge as they thought they'd be able to.
I, however, always enjoy watching international tournaments. I always go in with the irrational expectation England will win and am always disappointed but I keep coming back for more each time. |

Totally agree. Such a fine line between success and failure and feels like we have gone back 20 years in 10 days. I think we're totally screwed mate. We've gone from (i thought) strong favorite for promotion to total disarray.
Who will play for us? Player contracts could be dissolved given this cluster F.
Ownership has been abysmal throughout - they will want out and asset strip whatever they can.
Who will pick up the pieces? Who will sponsor? List goes on.
Obviously I hope I'm very, very wrong. But this seems existential to me. |

Their investment is in tatters - they're going to get back what they can and disappear. No chance they'll be paying out anything to supporters. They've invested the bare minimum throughout, constantly taken the cheap option on everything and sold any player that has performed well at the first opportunity. They're not giving anything to the fans they have treated as suckers throughout. |

My guess is they will sell whatever they can to recoup whatever they can of their investment and jack it all in at the earliest opportunity. They've been atrocious so far and I can't see this jolting them into a high functioning elite football club ownership state. |

So Tonda didn't know it was against the rules. We're appealing and according to Sky Sports we think there's a very strong chance we'll be playing on Saturday

I can't see this happening, however, it will be interesting if the league hold back putting tickets on sale for Boro fans until the appeal has concluded. |

4.5 mn sounds very high. I guess that's the sticker price and then we appeal it down substantially after the fact when media no longer care |
