Joking aside, I suspect Bazunu might have been up for taking a penalty had he been available. Good chance he’d have scored it as well.

Probably the same for 91/92 managers.

According to the BBC match site, this is the most goals they’ve conceded (81) since 1976/7. Last negative GD was 1989/90. Suspect Ten Hag might be on very thin ice after tonight.

As they always do.

Dilemma for RM, whether to start with his best side, or to keep some of the penalty takers on the bench to bring on towards the end. More so Aribo, Downes I’d expect to start Applicable to second leg (not just the final) depending on result at WBA

Had the same conversation this weekend. All too predictable, one player a side footed pass back to their keeper, and Edozie as you describe, probably a chip down the middle ( their GK not having to move).

Almost taking the piss

Poor that it eats into the away allocation. Will only detract from the atmosphere (unless some of the families go on the beer before the match). Wonder how many tartan blanket (even in May), thermos flask types will be there. Along with the assorted vlog makers. It’ll just be left to the rest of us to double our efforts in getting something going.

Agree. Wondered if he'd end up at Ipswich if we don't go up.

Where does that come from ? (Must admit there looked a suspicious square chunk taken out on first looking)

Where was this seen, out of interest ? If it's Crooks or Nixon then pinch of salt perhaps required.

My answer on a postcard: A successful one

A better manager than his reputation based largely on his time at Man Utd suggests. It was a shame he rejected Rupert’s offer at the time. The downside of this is that the new bloke will probably want to give Downes a once over, and the player will want the chance with a new manager. Inevitable though. Doubt that Moyes would fit the Rasmus criterion should there be a vacancy here.

Are Saints still regarded as top on the SR pyramid?

As said in an earlier post, the decision on a DoF may hinge on which division we’re in next season. Clearly more attractive as a Premiership club. Unfortunately though there could be the inevitable waiting on our choice working his notice so as not to be available until after the summer window.
