Is Sean Dyche still available? 😉

Lundekvam in return shock Jones: “Won’t be long before Santa’s here, so it’s a big week.” #saintsfc

We beat Bournemouth 2-0 in a closed friendly apparently. Good. We may now win the premier league.

Crocker off at end of the season then

What has been mildly concerning me is that in most of the photos I've seen of the manager addressing the players, many of them are doing the double tea-pot. Which always looks like the message isn't being quite bought, or the audience is at least sceptical. Adam Armstrong seems a particular exponent. But as you say, difficult to say with snapshots.

Might be better physio/warm ups/nutrition/recovery methods these days in the top tiers, I guess

Having done this injury myself playing footie, my heart goes out to him. Bloody horrible. Often think a leg break would be preferable. Get better soon AB

Didn’t see anything to disbelieve there apart from the guy not having that many followers.

We lost 2-0 to Bristol City. Blimey.

That’s put a few quid on Salisu’s price. Bad luck Newcastle.

And being subbed off! Belgium look old and slow

Gutting, isn't it. Penny pinching.

Just listened to Jose Fonte being interviewed in the pre-Portugal build up. I do hope he becomes Saints manager one day. What a good guy.

Do we think our first team would beat Qatar?

Yeah, but I THOUGHT it meant that anyway. 😉

Makes you wonder why we didn't get him in sooner. Ralph was so obviously a busted flush and we may have some more points on the board already. Guess he felt like he couldn't leave Luton just yet

Will be a bit jealous if Bournemouth get Bielsa tbh for all of the good mood music so far with Jones

superb post. thanks!

Enjoyed all his interviews. Says all the right things. Hope he gets a good and open reception from the players. Crucial he wins them over, perhaps with his reported individual presentation skills. Actually quite optimistic but needs buy-in all round.

Is Selles going too? Quotes tonight seem to suggest that. We are all Ralph’s men and women, he said.

Something to build on. Sort of.

What? Wow. Yay! Blimey. Hooray.

Gotta hope one of theirs misses. Has McCarthy been beaten at the near post on penalties too?

Uh oh. Pens. Not confident. Can we sub Keeper?
