Sheffield Weds 1-2 Saints - Match Thread
Holmes_and_Watson replied to Yorkshire Saint's topic in The Saints
0-2 to Saints. A strong, early start gets us a lead. We just don't quite click to score more than a couple. Wednesday have to push. There's the odd moment where we don't clear our lines, along with mental fragility from last season. But we're fine and get a nice confidence boost from the win. Tomorrow's winning numbers will be... -
"Right lads. Today we'll be looking at free kicks. Right. Where's James? There you are. Just to let you know we'll be looking at defending them. You just keep doing your thing, while I put my feet up for that bit." Well for as long as JWP stays with us 🙂

I'm sure that Saints conducted more intensive, methodical research than shown here, as supported by their hugely successful last transfer windo...ah, damn it... 🙂

And wing commander Lowe knows all about dive bombing something. Like a club down through the divisions. 🙂

Not when doing it "for any amount of gossip" would totally undermine your only fans pricing structure. 🙂

Like so many things relating to our goalkeepers, I expect the deal to slip through our fingers. 🙂

I thought it would be the blow up dolls that would be linked with inflation.

Agree on it being a good point on the Martin/Aaron's connection. If he was someone to come here, then there would be the comfort of Martin knowing exactly the personality we'd be getting. Aarons has looked very good when Norwich were an attacking team, with both full backs able to get forward. Less impressive when that was found out, and as part of a much weaker defensive unit. Which applies to everyone in that team. Norwich really struggled to replace their midfield on their budget, which did the team no favours either. Bayern were one of the teams linked to him. He was already getting a lot of football as a youngster, possibly putting him in a different bracket to Tino, who was breaking through at a much bigger club. Quick peek shows more than 200 games at 23. Considering the number of full backs we have, I'd be surprised to see him join. But, as a lotnof ours are wanted elsewhere, you never know. And we could do a lot, lot worse than Aarons.

A Chorus of Millions of Posts About Each Other

Standard advice: Routine so your body unwinds naturally No coffee after 14:00 No devices after a set time 8 or 9. Breathing exercises Plan next day early, so it's done and not on your mind. Exercise, including walks. Personally, my body clock struggles to keep the routine for any length of time. I end up with a single short sleep cycle and then I struggle to fall back asleep. So, I have the combo of thinking of steps in a pet project. Something light and stress free, while listening to low volume history podcasts with earbuds on, to avoid getting disturbed by partner snorings etc. It has to be both, having something my mind can dwell on without thinking too hard and the low volume podcast, so my mind can shift between them. In the time it's taken me to type that out, I can be asleep. Other low volume stuff is fine too. ASMR whispers or soft spoken audio stories work too. It's to set up a consistent tone, and someone speaking about a subject for an hour does the trick. You get the added bonus of remembering some historical facts out of nowhere too.
