St Landrew

Very bad timing. Not that I would second guess Nicola Cortese, but if that is true, I think it is a backward step. I believe AP deserves a proper amount of time [18 months], especially with this club's history in the last 15 or more years of casting off managers. Without a transfer window, AP could have got his team together within a few weeks of becoming Saints manager.

For those wishing to hear, the interview is going to be repeated, before 6pm, I understand.

Saints supporter texted Radio Solent saying, AP pushed past him, on his way out of the stadium, with a face like thunder.

Fair enough.

Think I'll move this to TMS, where it belongs.

And replaced them with early goals conceded. Can I remind posters to make their thread titles reflect the subject matter. I'm like to see an explanation of how 3 does that.

I'm not one to over-dramatise, and I'd like to think it was that superficial, but I think it goes deeper than that.

Crucially, he said the fans were fantastic, as usual. He said that with a bit of enthusiasm, but everything else was said with an uninterested tone. Was the Wycombe match a decider, in more ways than one..?

One word answers. Very clipped. Totally monotone in response. Anyone would have thought he'd just heard that a close relative had died, or he'd lost his job. I sincerely hope nothing is actually wrong.

Pardew's post 5-1 interview was distinctly odd. Anyone would have thought AP has lost a close relative, or his job..!

Pardew interview. He actually sounds as though he's had some really bad news, despite today's excellent result.

Tbh, I often find some people see a totally different match to me when I'm able to go. Given a good radio commentary and stats to back things up, it's surprising how accurate one's assessment can be.

When you think of clean sheet, do you think of a bed sheet, rather than a sheet of paper..? For some stupid reason, I think of a bed sheet.

Must say I was disappointed that Saints couldn't keep a CLEAN SHEET.

Off to to the Post Match Reaction thread.

Put those 5-1 comments here.

Mouth watering game in prospect. FT.

Has anyone had a bad game today..? Can't think of anyone. Perhaps KD has been a tad shaky, but I'm being ultra picky there.

6-1 anyone..?

4 minutes of injury time.

Lallana, who can't hit a barn door with a banjo, scores.

5-1

Solent commentator says - I think we were expecting [insert name of Walsall striker] to have a crack, just outside the penalty area. Initially, I thought he said - I think we were expecting [insert name of Walsall striker] to have a crap, just outside the penalty area.

Come on Wycombe..!

Lambert off for a rest, at last. Antonio on.
