There are corners of our support who are basically moon-howling loons who will argue with anyone and everything. Irrational hatred of something, doesn't matter what, is a way of life for them. It's a bizarre state of affairs and is why BAWA is unreadable these days. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 There are corners of our support who are basically moon-howling loons who will argue with anyone and everything. Irrational hatred of something, doesn't matter what, is a way of life for them. It's a bizarre state of affairs and is why BAWA is unreadable these days.I suspect most of the remaining incumbents of BWA are not even Saints supporters. Probably about 50 users with about 300 user names !!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buttocks Brown Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I think I'm right in saying that is was Gus who scoured Europe to find Hladky, Popescu, Muzek, etc? Good chance we'd be in the Championship if that rescue job hadn't been done on the squad in early 2019. Reading the brief statement the club put out you wonder if it might not be the most amicable of partings, which would be a shame. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Stewart needed game time at a lower level, which he got with County, but I've said all along that it was a short sighted move to let him go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you would be wrong the info on Hladky and Popescu came from Kearney's Father in law who has contacts in those area's. Hence why despite they players being successful Saints have not used the market since. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Stubbs letting Stewart go was scandalous at the time and makes little sense now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with that completely, he probably needed that season in the Championship but we should've loaned him out. Stubbs got rid of a promising youngster and brought in a couple of guys from the Jamie Vardy school and a Brock Madsen. I can't believe I'm even talking about Stubbs again, it just annoys me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macpherson was a brilliant manager for us. He took over a shite team at the bottom of the second tier, finished 2nd in his first full season in charge, then won the league the following year. He then proceeded to keep us up and get us to a final (disappointing as it was) and a semi final. I think all managers have a shelf life and maybe the time was right for a change, but his record as Saints boss is a very good one. I don't understand the animosity towards him and anyone that says he was a shite manager is an idiot. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Good to see Danny Mullen get a 2 year deal, he was always a 110%er for us and scored some really important goals. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry Saint Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Is that ex agent guy not one of those fakey ITK accounts that recycle weeks-old rumours? Happy to be proven wrong, but I'll not hold my breath. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
