There are plenty of worse things going on right now but... what a stinker! A very unusual week comes to a close following a 4-0 thumping to Aston Villa and an FA Cup win against West Ham….with a line-up very few saw coming...! Welcome to TSP 189! On the podcast this week, Steve and Dan are on their holidays (we aren't sure if they're together or apart…but it's certainly suspicious, that’s all we’re saying!). So Martin and Glen are joined by Ed Bizzey, a loyal Saints fan and one of our TSP Patrons. The team cover the disastrous afternoon at Villa Park in the league, following the cracking win against West Ham in the FA Cup. They also preview another big week - with 2 huge home games. The controversial, re-arranged Newcastle United fixture on Thursday evening and Watford’s visit to St. Mary’s on Sunday afternoon. Listen - https://pod.fo/e/111187 Watch - https://rb.gy/y5iimd
