John Boy Saint

Without a doubt ain’t the sharpest pencil in the box never has been, papers over the cracks with the odd assist, but you watch just about every other player on the pitch and he’s a friggin passenger 99% of the time by comparison.

WooHoo I got a double last night - Saints Won! And I won a tenner on the Saints Foundation Super Draw! 😎

Hope the Ref got a receipt for that non foul

The probably wanted to check that a Saints keeper really did dive left for the first time this season.

The gift that keeps on fucking giving!

For all of those who can't print their ticket Click this link to the official site and scroll down towards the bottom and there is a video to tell you everything you need to know if you are successful in getting a ticket. They may drive us up the wall in the Ticket Office sometimes, but I thought that this was rather concise and pretty much idiot proof. https://www.southamptonfc.com/news/2021-05-10/southampton-fc-return-to-st-marys-leeds-united-tickets-on-sale

We're higher than you NN!! haven't sat that far back for years..............still its miles closer to the pitch than you can get at West Ham .

yup

Glad I am not alone in this both on the phone and the web - get as far as my account page and thats it - had the email Friday to say today was the day.

Just got to hope that his keeping possession of the ball is worked on in the summer.

I’ll have 2 bags of what you’re smoking

Too much fucking about in the wrong part of the pitch 2-0 very flattering

Redmond is sleeping with Ralph

Come on Saints, quick fire couple of goals just to shut up Fuckwit Carragher

Aside from leaving the Badge alone - there is nowt wrong with it. It’s great to see above the first cast members of this years Panto at the Mayflower, CB and MLG are busy practising their parts 😜

As was said in commentary when Fofana took his moment to feed - whilst drinking the bottle of Orange whatever "That certainly isn't touching the sides"

Exactly! Anyone who was at the away game at Wolves where he spent a third of the second half changing his boots, leaving us down to 10, and is still holding a candle for the guy: they really have been fooling themselves about themselves for years!!

I think if we had held out for the 1-1 Coleman would have given Salisu man of the match, going by the amount of deserved sunshine he was blowing up his chuff.

The whole shit-show is summed up in the letting in of the penalty - I’m a fat lad sat watching in north Hampshire and knew which way McCarthy was going to dive for that penalty 3 weeks ago. Every penalty taker in this league knows that both our keepers default setting is to dive right. Just like the discipline of just about every defence in the league is drilled hard not to foul any of our players just outside the box. We are being read like a book -and looking at all the squads at Southampton (Ladies excluded) seems this fabled play book isn’t proving to be a best seller. Since Koeman left it really has been a steaming pile - the way we fade is pretty shabby Poch had the team playing for 90+ plus minutes - Jack Cork said that you needed 2 hearts to survive his training sessions. Turn back the clock to Strachan before he got into them the atmosphere in the ground changed at 80 minutes as we held onto a lead (often failing) - once WGS had his way the last 10 mins were often the best as he had them conditioned for 120 minutes. You can’t say “oh the game has moved on since then” Just about every other team is pushing us in the latter stages of the game and we are blowing out of ours arses, the disallowed goal, once again KWP is exposed because Armstrong is spent to make the covering run. I have been a glass half full Saints fan for many years - but my glass is beginning to look a bit empty. Hey-ho a weekend off.

I had a long day yesterday away from our general chit chat on the subject - but being in the car obviously heard general hoo-ha on the radio. The one thing that stuck out was the president of Real Madrid spouting forth that the youth are less interested in football due to boring games etc. My instant thought was “well in Spain thats of your own doing” - pretty certain that Real Madrid and Barcelona take 55% of the TV money divi up and the rest of La Liga have to make do with the remains, so everyone else is conveniently set up as cannon fodder for the big 2. The weird bit is that unlike here, where your team is your team - there you support your team “AND” one of the big two. By hoovering up most of the TV money La Liga is a bit like Scottish annual 2 horse race, except there are a handful of tougher teams in Spain to spice the pot a little. The 6 of them here need a slap from the PL but that ain’t going to happen as they already have the whip hand.

Got to hope Stevie Wonder has taken up scouting supplementing his income of a tour free year, for that to happen.

Good to see the Ladies showing the chaps how its done, although anyone with half an eye on Saints ladies over the past couple of seasons will know that they have, more often than not, been better that the league they are trying to get out of. Next round will be interesting against WSL Birmingham City.

Stop wishing your life away! Monday becomes Friday far too quickly at the moment - Friday night is Monday morning in the blink of an eye. Someone please find the handbrake.

I have to admit to being pretty laissez faire about the game tomorrow - Chelsea in the final that is a bigger carrot, we can do them - on our day we can do anyone, just got to hope tomorrow is on our day for this month. My daughter, partner and my brand spanking new Grandson have blagged dinner round ours tomorrow evening - so I have to get my Masterchef hat on and get dinner on the pass in good time to settle down and hope! come on Saints 😇😇😇

Well there was no doubting what was on the pitch last night - one team trying to make sure they didn’t get crocked for an FA Cup semi final versus a team managed by a bloke who has defied the odds to avoid relegation more often than not and if he succeeds, allegedly, will pocket a 7 figure bonus. Still I didn’t really give 2 hoots about the outcome as I had already received the result of the day thanks to my Daughter presenting me with my full membership into the Grandads club.😎
