With Larin I think the feeling was 'never heard of him, here we go again..' compounded by the Feyenoord fans' reports. He put some of our worries to rest quite quickly, didn't he! His touch may not be the best but he's just the physical handful we've been asking for, and he's done some delightful lay-offs with his back to goal in addition to his penalty area contributions. As for Downs, you do wonder what was going on, both with the player and with the scouting. Paul Moody bought from Waterlooville back in the day had more idea how to play football.

That's what I must have seen. Afterthe beers watching us against Wrexham my attention may not have been very focused..

Somebody in the pub showed me something on his phone after the game. It's Saturday and ISTR 3pm..

We've also got two ready made chants for the next home game: Canada, Canada's number 9, Canada's number 9 and Scotland, Scotland's number 9, Scotland's number 9. 🙂

Back from the local (PO10 area) pub. Three Saints fans, two Arsenal (for the Sporting game) and one appreciative neutral. It seemed wrong not to have an extra one at the final whistle, and I'm just worried about Saints' form on my liver! But at least I'm helping my local pub in these hard times.

So it is, thanks! I'm sure it wasn't when I checked a couple of weeks ago. So I'll be helping out the turnover at my local pub, which is always quiet on a Tuesday night.

What I remember is a hand written sign in the back of a Saints' coach on the way home. "Cheer up Arsenal, You Won'..

I was dreading extra time. I would have had to get the train home via Fratton..

Unappreciated..

Why, is that game over? cough...

Quick question which affects my transport options.. Is there extra time at this round or does it go straight to penalties? Comments like "it'll be settled in 90 minutes, or the first 20" not needed!;-) However unlikely the contingency, I'm planning! TIA.

I think he is improving. I caught a little bit of the Canada Iceland game and the bit where he was substituted. The commentator mentioned that he'd had poor service in the game but was looking sharper/fitter (?) than last time he appeared.

Is he actually saying that with a straight face and no sense of irony?! It's up there with 'do you know who I am?' in revealing all about the writer/speaker. He assumes rather a lot, doesn't he?!

Drat, got to 10 and forgot Nick Holmes, thought he was later; my apologies to him! I want the opportunity to wear a Veteran of 76 t-shirt. I haven't got one, but you get the drift..

There's a guy in the local village I only know as he drinks in the pub where I go to watch football on TV. He's got two Spurs season tickets.. Now I obviously wasn't interested this last season, but will I be next? Too many (or two) variables in that equation..
