Saints fans always shoot messengers with bad news....FACT

Pelle was worse than dire. I would not condone some of the booing today but at times he did not look interested whatsoever. Truly shocking performance.

There was not one memorable moment in the whole game, it was utter dross and incredibly depressing. I know its early days but Pelle showed absolutely nothing and Tadic is a rich man's Ramirez. Underwhelmed. West Brom also had a new manager and plenty of new players but they looked more a team and they finished the more likely.

Sorry I don't take much notice of performances in friendlies.

have to say I think we were really poor. I only watched the 2nd H so things might have been different in the first 45mins.

Saint-Ed said yesterday he had been told two arrivals were imminent

I follow @ArturBoruc on twitter but haven't got all these latest ones from him

We need to encourage this sort of thing so well done. I seem to remember being in a pub called the Imperial but if memory serves it was in Kings Cross in Sydney. Mind you that was back in the 80s. Just one word of advice when writing about football best use English parlance ie equaliser and not equalizer. But the more Saints fans in the world the better so keep going

Me and Manji would get on like a house on fire in real life

I thought that then supposed he has a release clause?

They have rescued their club but there is not one ounce of humility about them, they really think they are the bestest and while they display such a collective arrogance I will continue to laugh at their lowly predicament!

He was impressive and the commentators (Tyler and Neville) both praised his contribution. He has a brain, he is quick with his feet and reads the game well for one so young.

I missed GM's post first time around but it adds up perfectly.

Without wishing to be considered to be the least bit sycophantic, one tweet from Solent today made me think the future is reassuring. When Clyne scored for Saints, apparently our owner, Miss Liebherr leapt from her seat just like a true fan. Also, the fact she travelled up with the squad last night and stayed in the same hotel makes me think if she has not actually become a fan she is showing a healthy interest in the club over and above just being a random owner. Cortese regularly missed matches and sometimes Saints previously were not even represented in the Board room at games. Maybe, just maybe we have an owner who has become genuinely interested in our fate and that can be no bad thing. I know we lost today but there were encouraging signs on and off the pitch. Onwards and upwards. Christ I sound like NickG

groin injury according to Adam Blackmore but seeing Tadic today I don't think there is room in the team for both
