  1. Listening to Radio 2 on Saturday morning there is a guess the celebrity voice game on the Dermot O’Leary show. The successful listener to get through guessed Matty, Dermot building the tension of the game asked “is it the footballer and my nutty good friend Matt LeTissier” it wasn’t but O’Learys comment sound a bit strange. if his views are being listened to enough to put pennies in his pocket as an internet “influencer” then fair play to him.
  2. I think it’s in there already, we just don’t have the calibre of player around him to provide the opportunity to show it. You see glimpses of it when he plays for England with better players (although that’s debatable after this last week) but then he never gets a chance to build up a head of steam to show it because he never gets a run of games. In that position he is a far better player than Phillips.
  3. Makes you slightly fearful for our defence next season 🤪
  4. Now that would be Golden buzzer stuff on BGT - the whole of St Mary’s would be standing there catching flies when that Rabbit pops out of the hat! 🤪
  5. Ferret Wrestling would be good fun at half time - it would be a bit like the Police Alsatian taking down the “p*mpey fan” to great cheers
  6. “while talks remain ongoing with long-term servant Shane Long.” We’ll be announcing ground naming rights with McCarthy Stone soon. If he is staying we need to optimise his experience to getting the youngsters to do his Donkey work and he just pops up to……..score a goal. Different times but Peter Reid did that with us, he knew he didn’t have the legs anymore and he got either young Maddison or Widrington to receive the ball arc their run up the pitch, and he told them by the time they did that he would be in the right position in the box to receive the ball back. (That was a tale from many moons ago, from a late friend who knew Reid).
  7. I think we obviously differ on that, he worked hard but the spark dulled once he had signed on the dotted. However Rasiak I can agree with you on being blooming frustrating. As mentioned before, the Norwich game the night before going out on loan, as those around us commented on his performance "there's going to be a man waiting in the tunnel with a bottle to be pee'd in!".
  8. Now there's a player who played like his life depended on it when he was on loan with us, made the loan permanent, then pretty much popped on his slippers and stoked up his pipe.
  9. Walker looked like about the only player who cared
  10. Doubt there will be as the present leader of the of the country has our Dragan marked as a bit of an enemy of the state.
  11. Very soft Pen for Hungary - England playing like Saints second half
  12. Someone did hint at a very different colour away and hinted at an earth colour.
  13. David Moyes must have a quiet smile to himself everytime the Old Trafford managers door goes through a revolution 51 games is all they gave him. Fergie didn’t get much wrong maybe they should have not been so hasty. That said Moyes should have stuck with Mike Phelan it would have made thinks easier for him.
  14. You been drinking 😳 😁
  15. Oh what a shame - candle shortage coming in the North West
  16. Real ( sorry Glen Reeel) are Grand Masters at Shithousery.
  17. Even Gary Lineaker caught up in it seems a lot were trying to get in 2 hours before KO and French Rozzers being awkward.
  18. Spanish themed pre match is going to piss them off
  19. One thing that I have picked up over the years with the Academy set up, there is a concerted effort to give the boys some level of education and life skills. Just to ensure that should the dream end they know much more than football and can have a “normal life and job”. I would imagine there will be a lot of welfare conversations with the ladies to ensure it’s the right thing for them.
  20. You’d have thought with the calibre of manager we have invested in, there was a strategy in place for this eventuality. With Sport Republic being knocked back on acquiring a couple of clubs already you can presume that there is some decent finance to hand. Having a womens football team operating at a professional level adds to the portfolio when going after other clubs.
  21. Bit late to this party - Watson going is him standing by his word from a few years back “If Fraser leaves then I will” That was obviously before he was made set piece coach - which is a cockeyed position when JWP is rifling in Exocets
  22. …………..and a thank you from me too 👍
  23. Couple of yards outside the box?! He was just walking out of West Quay onto Above Bar! 😜🤪
  24. Just have to sit in a Footie stadium on a regular basis to realise that they do live amongst us. Think I had the caller from Wolverhampton sat right behind me on Saturday - ordinary chap very pleasant to talk to before 3pm then the switch flicked “yam-yam-yam” schizophrenic watching the game in a parallel universe - probably still chuntering all down the M6 to home, gutted that Savage and Sutton weren’t doing 606 to sate his ire with.
  25. Tuesday night against Liverpool just before they scored the winner - most fans sat around us were saying the same thing, we need to make a change to keep us in it. Then the inevitable happened. A bunch of ageing “idiots” up in the stands can see it, but a collective of highly paid “experts” in the dug out are seemingly blinkered, blind, or scared to state the obvious.
