We should’ve built a team around Soufiane Boufal

Shane scored at Vicarage Road (I was still half way up the steps to my seat) so there is still only one Tommy Mulgrew

I’d play Fellows, Jander and Archer to allow all of them to exorcise the first half on Tuesday but play Archer up front with Larin in a 4-4-2 (that’s where he’ll thrive) or just behind him if it’s still 4-2-3-1. The nipper can come on when Larin can’t run any more. Imagine the bantz when Leicester go three up.

Fuck me. That could be a sliding doors moment in the season. Up we go

I missed the first half. How’s it going?

FA cup semi final at Villa park 2003. I was in the Watford end biting my tongue!

Saints 5 Watford 0 Stewart 31, 68, Larin 90, 90+2, 90+5

Looks like a clusterfuck. Let’s see how it works out. Cyle Larin Larin He drives a McLaren He’s Canadian He hates the Pompey scum etc etc

Wind it in pal. He scored 43 in 87 for Orlando City a decade ago. Proper baller.

Best moments - Matsuki flick, Leo celebration, Flynn wipe out and fight. Bree did well, and we didn’t threaten once Azaz went off. He drives me nuts quite often but can unlock things. For about the tenth time this season I’m left thinking how the fuck did we not win that. They were shite. At least we didn’t lose.

I’d like to see Archer just off Stewart- bad though he’s often been I still think there’s a player there looking for confidence

Re Bragg: Agreed - an academy kid who’s been forced to sing ‘wash your mouth out’ before every training session since he was eight is what we need on Sunday. ‘Ave it.

Point taken about Frank (probably) but it’s bollocks to say were couldn’t be in the market for people at the Robins/Wilder level. Even next season we’ll still be one of the richest clubs outside the premier league. It’s just that we’ve chosen to go down the unknown hipster youth route for manager.

If/when Frank gets sacked by Spurs, i’d push the boat out and offer him a three-four year project with funds to rebuild, get us promoted, and then (er) survive. On the other hand he has worked with Rasmus before 🤦‍♂️

Sideways and backwards everywhere we go, Sideways and backwards everywhere we go, Everywhere we gooooo… Nearly 24 hours on, the thing that strikes me most about that game is not that people watching were angry, it’s that they were so fucking bored. Boring, passionless, predictable, uninspiring football. The last three games I’ve seen - Oxford away, Millwall at home and yesterday’s yawnfest - have all been dreadful. I don’t just blame Tonda. I blame Guardiola, I blame all the analysts with laptops, I blame x fucking G. I’m paying to be entertained and it’s just really tedious. Surely someone in the hierarchy is looking at the manager’s post-match comments and thinking that’s not acceptable, it was dull as fuck. I don’t want hoofball but I don’t want this either. It’s not really about the money. It’s about the time I invest in watching this shite and caring about it. Is it the players, is it SR? Dreading the trip to the Tin Shed down the road. And then after a crap season we have the joy of watching FIFA bending over in front of Trump for a World Cup that no one can afford tickets for. At least the Six Nations is coming up.
