Has he got a buy-out clause? WE could do with a bidding war;-)

The Twitter nonsense and chewing gum incident I'm sorry it hasn't worked out for him here, it was just a few years too late for him and despite his efforts he was pretty crap.

I'd rather the Sunderland rumour was true, more chance of a fee. Rangers are still pretty brassick aren't they?

The usual "all pissing in the same pot" shit from perrenial under achievers stealing a living from the game and petrified of criticising any fellow professional.

I didn't go past the bit about us needing someone to pick on, no, we needed both players and management to earn their salary and at least show some sort of pride. These two ****** are utterly incapable and will forever slosh around amongst the has beens and never will be's.

I've mentioned this before but look at Black's record wherever he's been. Apart from helping to get that lot up it's shite. Expect Southampton to be wallowing in the lower region of the premier league soon.  I don't think he got over being in their dugout when Cahill scored his overhead kick which effectively relegated them.

The twitter/chewing gum incidents were blown way out of proportion. He was no longer good enough to play for us that is clear, but people getting so upset by something on twitter is more of a reflection on them than it is on Lescott.

In isolation yes, but against a backdrop of such discontent, his dreadfull performances and an air, like so many others, of not giving two fucks about our plight leads people to, indeed, get a bit giddy about it. And so they should, we should expect a certain level of behaviour from all that carry our colours and get paid for doing so. Give footballers an inch and they'll take a mile. Set the standards, tell all the meet them or go elsewhere.

SGT would be proud of that post. Didn't he get rid of Warren Aspinall for a head butt in a pre season friendly in Scotland?

Although having worked very briefly in Tenerife with another DJ who was a Pompey fan and mixed with the likes of Warren Aspinall and Paul Walsh apparently Aspinall was quite 'a lad' off the pitch too. I suspect not to SGT's standards.

I don't think he didn't try, I just think he was a poor player at the end of his career. Just my opinion.

I agree. I thought he would be a great signing for Albion but in truth he never particularly impressed me on the occasions I saw them on telly in a live game. I think his slide had begun before he even got to us.
