For all we know, Puncheon may well have been offered a new deal.

Gordon Simpson, or Homer as I'm sure you're known outside of this pathetic local rag, why do you persist in trying to unsettle the playing staff of Southampton FC? Maybe if you tried investigating before writing articles you would be welcomed at St Mary's Stadium!

And why mention RL and MS in this article as they are still under contract until 2014? Time to face the facts - no-one at Saints wants to talk to you! Get over it and prove that you deserve to be welcomed back by the club.

I think Chaplow could well do the business in the Prem, he just needs a few matches.

If you don't like the echo stop reading it and making comments... quite simple really, maybe then you won't get so upset.

Some great posts here.

Punch and Boruc should both get 2/3 years if/when Prem survival is done. Punch however may get a tad greedy with his wages. The rest can leave.

To add - Forte, Hammond, Barnard, De Ridder, Davis (K), Sharp, Martin, Guly and Lee must all be farmed out. This will leave space for 4/5 top players in the summer.

My bids Forster Samba McGready Hooper and Ince

As for Punch, before offering him a new contract, I think NC is waiting to see if he can get planning permission for a pitch-side loo.

It’s an intriguing one, Punch has definitely come on this season to stand up and be counted.
However, are their better options out there? perhaps.
We have seen anyone is replaceable here if we believe the model is to fast track the project to the next level.
I say sign him up, though I would not argue if he was replaced next season by someone with more talent, say Bale.

I'll tell you what's intriguing, Mush on the Beach I distinctly remember you being a Manchester United fan many years ago. If I'm wrong and you have never been a Man U fan please feel free to correct me!

You are coming across as some confused little stalker who has the wrong bunny in his sights.

You didn't answer my question! Don't get upset I'll drop it. As for the stalking stuff I asked you a simple question, which for whatever reason you don't want to answer. I was just curious because I knew someone who for many years was a Man Utd fan who took the p out of the Saints and was was now posting on a Saints thread. And a few weeks ago I remember you being on my case, was that stalking?

He corrected his spelling mistake before some pedantic shitsack (ie someone a bit like me) did it for him.

I applaud his honesty. Personally, whenever I make a spelling mistake or miss the odd word out (which, let's be honest, everyone does) I always just let it slide and hope no one notices. But, then, I am quite half-arsed.

It’s be all “One day, Racist John picked up the ball and kicked it to Ashley Love-Rat who sprinted forward and crossed to Nando, the Spanish boy who couldn’t hit his own c0ck with a slipper. The crowd booed and made monkey gestures. Nando missed. The crowd booed some more and called all the Chelsea players ‘cants’. The end.”
I dunno, but I’m not sure I’m buying it for my little ‘uns.

haha, didn't even notice that!
On the actual story, Punch needs to be signed up for sure and he should stay as I get the feeling he's definitely the type of player that needs to be valued.
He has that here and I don't think he would get that necessarily elsewhere.

Deserves a new deal, but would he slip back to the 'old' Puncheon if he's got a guaranteed deal? Sign him year by year, or even 6 monthly contracts, with extensions after so many appearances (barring injuries)

Yes and any mention of cowardly 'headhunters' will not go down well...

..the assumption will be that they are a faraway native tribe not a London bullyboy one..

Incidents such as glassing a 14 year old in Oxford street by a group of 45 year olds who then wanted police protection from some serious Saints old boys will not make bedtime reading either..

Thanks for joining in. What I like about that is that even though you're clearly intellectually sub-normal you can name an awful lot of our players. I'd genuinely struggle to list half a dozen of yours. Erm, Steve Claridge, Paul Merson, um, Fred Dineage? I'm out...

Strikes me that the club will do everything they can to keep Punch if it is sensible to do that.

Based on his past attitude though I can only think winding his contract down suits him because he can demand out of proportion wages from any interested clubs.

We'll see. Would like to think he'll stay in the same way Walcott did at Arsenal. Can't blame him for waiting to see who might come in for him, but it's questionable whether he'd get a better footballing option than Saints, assuming we stay up.

Key thing is, we will only pay him what he's worth, so as long as he's sensible about it. If he wants silly money, let him go.

Must say though, if Ramirez is on a lot more than him wouldn't you be demanding a bit of parity?

For all we know, Puncheon may well have been offered a new deal.

Gordon Simpson, or Homer as I'm sure you're known outside of this pathetic local rag, why do you persist in trying to unsettle the playing staff of Southampton FC? Maybe if you tried investigating before writing articles you would be welcomed at St Mary's Stadium!

And why mention RL and MS in this article as they are still under contract until 2014? Time to face the facts - no-one at Saints wants to talk to you! Get over it and prove that you deserve to be welcomed back by the club.

We have seen anyone is replaceable here if we believe the model is to fast track the project to the next level.
I say sign him up, though I would not argue if he was replaced next season by someone with more talent, say Bale.

I'll tell you what's intriguing, Mush on the Beach I distinctly remember you being a Manchester United fan many years ago. If I'm wrong and you have never been a Man U fan please feel free to correct me!

Blimey, I'll tell you what's intriguing 1885.
You are coming across as some confused little stalker who has the wrong bunny in his sights.
Try posting your thoughts about footy on here, that’s the general idea.
Enjoy the rest of your day.

You didn't answer my question! Don't get upset I'll drop it. As for the stalking stuff I asked you a simple question, which for whatever reason you don't want to answer. I was just curious because I knew someone who for many years was a Man Utd fan who took the p out of the Saints and was was now posting on a Saints thread. And a few weeks ago I remember you being on my case, was that stalking?

OK. fare enough, though I thought I had already answered your question.
No you obviously don’t know me as I am proud Southampton born and bred and red and white Saints to the core.
As it goes, the reason I asked you previously to wind your neck in was because I thought you were coming across unnecessarily goading to good Saints posters on here like Mack Chinnon.
I thought you may be a wind up skunt, but I’d like to believe you took my point on board, we share the same team and we’ll draw a line through it.

For all we know, Puncheon may well have been offered a new deal.

Gordon Simpson, or Homer as I'm sure you're known outside of this pathetic local rag, why do you persist in trying to unsettle the playing staff of Southampton FC? Maybe if you tried investigating before writing articles you would be welcomed at St Mary's Stadium!

And why mention RL and MS in this article as they are still under contract until 2014? Time to face the facts - no-one at Saints wants to talk to you! Get over it and prove that you deserve to be welcomed back by the club.

totally agree with deadly666
maybe young simpson writes for the skunts at the news as well just as negative
why not listen to our chairman and write something positive

I like your thinking Alicesdad, but I reckon we'll see "What we dawnt wanna doo now - the art of managing the Poch way" by Dave Merrington.

And, "Why Poch is a little too foreign to have made it in the Coldstream Guards" by Big Mac.

As for Punch, before offering him a new contract, I think NC is waiting to see if he can get planning permission for a pitch-side loo.

Strassie and Slugger, I am at the Indigo hotel...there is apparantly a false poster Kent almost certainly who is putting nonsense about...

..I did post incorrectly last night re re Saintsayer myself...I read it wrong, that's the problem with the internet what you read may have been written in a completely different spirit to how it is taken..

...plus I had come back from ski-ing after a hell of a lot of sherberts..

And you are all more than welcome to share some more sherberts with bro and i at hotel Indigo, in Newcastle, 2/8 fenkle street..theres a name !

You are just being your usual optimistic self, "hope you are wrong?", well you aren't always.

Would like to see Puncheon go and I also think that the Chairman might like to see him go also, he has a long memory.
