Jeez. 5 mins of normal time left...

If I had a penny for every free kick we've given away tonight - I'd have £5.63...

Come on Goal Machine!!!

A few of our lads are very niggled tonight...

Waaaaay too many...

Make them eat their f@cking "Hammond Hammond what's the score" chant with another ffs...

Merrington calls it right; get Barnard up front 4-4-2. Get Waigo on too Pards...

FFS...

Get in! :

Dean Hammond celebrates scoring the first goal for Southampton with Rickie Lambert:

Wotton in action at the Withdean:

Brighton's first goal tonight (not that you all want to see it!) but will have pics of ours shortly:

Not if you're a British or American soldier under insurgent mortar bombardment is isn't...

Oops.wmv - 3.23MB

I hope to God he stays of course - but we're more likely to lose him (if atall) to a Championship side - such as West Ham - who will need a good stiker in that league next season. Can't see him going to Burnley or Hull if they go down...although he is from 'oop north' of course. As for Pompey; they couldn't afford his boot laces...

The Lounge 2000 Club seemed popular with Saints fans. It must have been well in excess of its trading licence for bodies inside!

I noticed the Greyhound buses were all named. I passed 'Barbara Ann' and 'Sharona' !!!

Will Markus be paying for the open-top bus trophy parade around the city by any chance?

I spoke to Steve Claridge a couple of hours before KO as he walked through the car/coach park entrance. And yes - called him 'you skate bastid' lol. He said Saints would be too good for Carlisle. He's a good bloke & a laugh - despite his fishy connections!

BBC2 tonight 10.50-11.30pm Highlights of the JP Trophy final between Carlisle United and Southampton at Wembley Stadium. Have already opened (yet another) bottle of Bud in anticipation.

lol. Yeah - I realised it was you mate as you passed about 85mph - tut tut I only just got your message re the pub Mike. If I'd have seen it earlier - I'd have met you there "fore shore". Maybe sometime soon eh? Cheers for the directions going this morning too. Nice easy trip there. The way home though was a nightmare pretty much. Went with the flow of thousands of Saints cars/coaches/van/mini-buses...and ended up on the M4 somehow! Jeez - talk about a crawl. Didn't dampen the mood though cos I'm still smiling! Get in!

A few photos to make you smile...

Gottcha. I expect that thing to sail past me somewhere near the Devils' Punchbowl then!

Super-glued it on there for the day as it's red n white with a touch of black. ;¬)
