John Boy Saint

Decision on whether the match will be on to be announced at 5pm according to OS https://southamptonfc.com/news/2018-03-02/southampton-stoke-city-match-update-weather

If you watch the You Tube of that game Eric Martin wasn't wearing gloves think the commentator even mentions. those were the days that even in a modern house you would warm up a penny to put on the window to make a spy hole in the ice on the inside of the glass!

Rather than start a new thread........... does Wembley not hav3 undersoil heating?

I pulled a huge handbrake turn on the A45 that night at the junction where you can go to Coleshill and where we were staying in Balsall Common for the Spring Fair at the NEC, there was nothing on the road, huge expanse of tarmac and a company car just had to be done. That took us pretty much 3hrs too. still not as cold as that Sheffield Utd game, as the game wore on you could see the frost forming on the pitch, still I had a lump of mash of the day from down the road keeping me warm.

What’s the point of buying him with all those qualities when any forward endeavour is seemingly being drilled out of the players, Boufal is a Maverick attached to one of those retractable dog leads, off he runs but the retrieve button is not far from the managers finger, Lemina - first sniff of interest from elsewhere, and the door won’t be banging on his backside because the bloke is being suppressed.

With City winning the League cup and nailed on Champions thats another Europa League spot up for grabs, come on Saints this league is so flakey this season lets go and get it.

Mrs JBS said when she saw Rickie and young Sam Gallagher on the pitch at the same time for us “if you didn’t know otherwise you would say theta Father & son out there” after many years I have learned to pay attention to her observations on footie players.............and that’s no thumb print on my head.

The thread title is like being in the Turkey shed when the farmer walks in and flips the calendar over to December. trouble is if it happens it's a ***** of a job to hang on if you get back to sit at the top table. If it happens I'll be more piddled off that we let it slip through our fingers so bloody cheaply.

Nice assistance from that bEllend Bobby bloody Madley apparently!

2500/1 surely

I’m a Wooden Spoon Salesman and even I could see we were getting mugged off with that purchase

Oooo nice bit of porn just popped up........................ blimey you could park a bus in there!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To be fair South Today primed us Thursday I think. I watched his first spin through the air and land on his bum then lost the battle with my eyelids

Ahhhh.........that was in the good old days of football when going to a game was like going to the gym, bit of boxercise, bit of running either away or into the fray, dart dodging, and if you were lucky you could recoup the cost of your ticket by picking up all the loose change that often rained down upon you, for some reason the authorities thought that the 10 day lead time would quell any needle that might be hanging over from Saturdays game 2-3 days before. I always thought that 10 days gave the psychos enough time to get their logistics sorted for an even bigger ruck. Blimey going to this years World Cup could be like popping along to one of those Sealed Knot re-enactments of the English Civil War. Back to WG’s original comment - wasn’t the second replay venue decided on the toss of a coin?

This shouldn't affect too many of those travelling up north for this one, unless there is an issue on the A34. From the north of Hampshire the other route to the M40 is via the A404M from the M4 at Maidenhead to the M40 at High Wycombe, this approach to the M40 is closed for this whole weekend. Which might in turn punt a bit more traffic onto the A34. Like I say for the majority it won't be an issue.

I thought (pretty certain) Admiral went Pop!

A text would have been easier than having to clear the spiders cobwebs and dust off your Saintsweb account.

I expect it is too, but alongside the Leeds Liverpool canal you will find it, don't google it because that will spoil the fun.

One of the 8 wonders of the World.

Looks like another ground to be ticked off my list

That’s still only a possibility until Monday night...... Wigan seem to have used the FA cup to let their hair down this season as a welcome distraction away from getting out of league one

As it says

Did I just hear on BT sport that the draw is tonight???!!

Has anyone else had a crack at the Quiz that the club post on the O S at the end of most weeks. It has a connection to that weekends Saints game where you have a set amount of time to answer something like the one before we went to Stamford Bridge, "Can you identify these 15 players that played for both Saints and Chelsea". This weeks one is pretty tough to get before the time elapses, "Name all the teams Saints have faced in the FA Cup this Century". For those who haven't seen them follow the link and have a go. https://southamptonfc.com/news/2018-02-16/quiz-pre-west-bromwich-albion-southampton-fa-cup-1718 If your answer is right the box will tell you and clear, if it's wrong you have to clear the box yourself. Triggers a few memories................and nightmares
