  1. Missing too many chances need that 2nd
  2. Yup the whole nation ( bar only the North London Yobos) is supporting Leicester over the line as am I when they don't play us it is an amazing story however you look at it everyone expected them to blow up and slip away but their lead continues to increase as the matches ebb away
  3. Maybe the bbc don't realise you get 30 secs for each sub and there were quite a few of them too to add to delays and time wasting 5 mins was probably a minimum
  4. Err he has only played one full game and a few sub appearances as well as carrying an injury let's give him a chance before coming out with a final verdict so soon
  5. Yes in going for it we could have conceded another three
  6. It very rarely does we just don't seem to want it enough close to goal Despite playing well we have yet to test scmichael
  7. We have actually played well and tested them far more than most
  8. Mane wasted on the wing
  9. This was from the Saints bench to Bein sports
  10. Targett injured his ankle on 20 mins and tried to run it off unsuccessfully it seems hence the sub
  11. The concensus of the BEin studio of Gray Coleman etc reckon it was 50/50 they reckon 5 out of ten refs would give it and the need to give a red card makes the decision harder
  12. Clasie on Morgan a bit of a mismatch that
  13. When we finished 2nd to a great Liverpool team they actually failed to beat us twice that season!
  14. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/sep/24/the-knowledge-crystal-palace-brighton-closest-derby#img-1 I am sure this must have been posted before however the report produced in Sept 2014 above by the Guardian shows Saints have the highest success factor amongst the UK's top derbies with obviously the converse being Poopey having by far the worst success factor I knew we were well ahead of them in first class league and cup matches but didn't realise no other team involved in top UK derbies has a success factor comparable to ours! Will we ever play them again? I guess the cups are the only likely source of fixtures for some time to come!
  15. or get them through the academy even if foreign
  16. I was at this match best Saints team we ever had shame it was not allowed to stay together and develop Can't imagine a team these days playing all of Rideout and Shearar up front with Wallace R and LeTiss down the wing We certainly needed the likes of Case and Benali with that forward line
  17. Err shouldn't that be buyhampton for them?
  18. The government is not stupid Uk football is one of our biggest exports bringing in a huge amount of foreign TV money as well as sports tourism into the Uk We are currently ahead of the Spanish Italian and German leagues in terms of worldwide popularity which drives the TV and commercial income They will not allow this money flow to be compromised just thin k of the tax the government currently collects from football related activity this would need to be replaced from other sources if they were ever stupid enough to kill the Goose that lays the golden egg
  19. So Holland are very weak defensively apparently but Virgil still can't get a Centre back slot? He would walk into the England team surely? Forster starts Clasie in the Dutch squad too
  20. Please no Rooney Wilshire etc lets build a good young team going forward
  21. Clyne Kane Vardiy Deli Alli (bar the clear miss) have been England's most impressive tonight Henderson Lallana Cahill and Wellback pretty poor
  22. So four Spurs players to recognise their league performances and position according to Hodgson, What about Leicester? not even one!
  23. Wonder what Morgan feels like now when he can't even make. 23 man squad for France so close to the finals and Man U may not even qualify for the European cup Shame really as he was one of the more loyal It seems that with increasing tv money the so called big clubs are not as nailed on favourites for the big trophies as they used to be and sitting on their benches no longer guarantees an international run out
  24. Pellets form ........ Has returned now he is fully fit, has had match practice and his confidence is back!
