  1. An unusual amendment to the bill, to watch out for. 🙂
  2. Pros No plan B Higher risk Stubble Cons No pullover Hairstyle could be better Lack of previous failure At a high profile club, so not left field enough. Not hugging and having a laugh with player in photo
  3. You stay strong Gio. The forum is at it's best with different views. It can take a little while, but inevitably others post supporting every view. #daretodream
  4. Pace Finishing Striker As much use to RussBall as Holgate. 🙂
  5. Stoked to the max! It could only be more awesome if I could then relive the game with a never ending Netflix series.
  6. I was wondering if I had fast forwarded through the Stephens and Martin scene. But then I remembered that they starred in another horror movie: Possession: Unassuming average player taken over by deranged supernatural force bent on world football domination, and the disciples he attracts.
  7. SR make error during split on Chapman or Shankly for boss. Independent consultants appointed. "You can't forge a left field, post mortal, global superpower, without being prepared to have the occasional wasteland of screaming souls," said SR spokesperson R Anderson, wiping marshmallow from his face.
  8. Herbert Chapman open to Southampton job through spiritual medium, if they sack Russell Martin - Football Insider
  9. #globalsuperpower #gioisright
  10. Happy to find out by putting them both in a far away field. 🙂
  11. He's preparing them the same way as for every game. If that doesn't calm any nerves. I don't know what will.
  12. After a few choice tackles, no one is coming within 30 yards of him. Job done. 🙂
  13. Dave's wife and daughter on 5 live in an open discussion on the impact of heading, Dave as dad and husband, and the changes. A really good listen. Oh, and the presenter said Rotherham, Sunderland and City and missed us out. Yeah, he did get more games for them but a cracking player for us.
  14. Well said. The future is Charles Hughes.
  15. Some nice person put up some highlights of us against Liverpool. On one of them Klopp is having a warm chat with Koeman. Clearly Klopp has tons of respect for him and his achievements. Quite a switch to a manager who bursts into tears and his successors. Martin did play for Scotland, but doesn't have that reputational clout.
  16. Shilton Golac Wright Van Dijk Peach Wallace Case Le Tissier Armstrong Channon Keegan
  17. "Don't tell him, whelk!"
  18. Nice to see our bastion of free speech continue his crusade. Wanting to jail posters who criticise you (and it's never been the subject) is a bit of mask slipping.
  19. Martin has to portray a massive amount of self belief. His absolute commitment to his style helps a lot there. That self belief, and the ego that goes with it, has to carry everyone at the club in the same direction. Hopefully his staff are equally committed, sharing and promoting that. We get to see the cringy things, where the club are wanting to show their togetherness. But there's a lot more interaction that we don't see. Martin's well aware of the criticism, from fans, internally and pundits. But the results shape everything. He's having to defend the basics of what he's hinged his career on. That's going to direct those interviews. And there's a load of them, where he's being asked the same things. If we were winning, we'd be seeing him keeping the ego in check, being glowing about others while waiting for a bigger job offer. Instead, we're bound to get prickly answers considering where we are. I saw Martin do post match interviews as a Norwich player. They were full of clichéd nonsense, and I remember being happy he wasn't spouting that rubbish at my club, after a resounding defeat. He's now having to own what's going on, and we'll see that pressure on his answers.
  20. You've clearly managed to get over that Branfoot Twerking video, having dropped MLT, more quickly than I have. 🙂
  21. I don't follow anyone's social media, but it doesn't seem unusual for someone to put up a holiday pic?
  22. A reminder for anyone ordering a mug, that delivery is 2 weeks.
  23. On day 1 if he had bought a ping pong table, only to burn it in front of them, we would have done better. More so, if we added in radical mood shifts. 🙂
  24. A 2-0 win for us. A forward thinking Liverpool gets undone by a auto passing move that goes from deep to AA who tucks it in. We miss a second chance to do the same, leading to a nervy game. But THB gets a late set pieces header to seal the points. Worst case I read that Liverpool eased off once the win is secured under this manager. So, a plucky defeat is possible. But even with this scenario, we sneak a draw with that late THB header. Whatever the scenario, Lallana is fined a week's wages. Not for exchanging shirts with Liverpool. But on insisting THB then tries it on, to see how it feels.
