Once again, lip reading pays off... Pep: I didn't see Nathan today. Ralph: We moved him on. Pep: What?! Your country's Thierry Henry?! And you let him go?! Ralph: He was having defective independent thoughts. His lack of obedience to automatisms, could have resulted in a shot on goal attempt, leaving us weaker at the back. Pep: Oooookay... so where do I have to contact to arrange a swap deal for Grealish? Ralph: He's of no use without blind obedience to failing tactics! It's better he's in Turkey. Pep: Not the only turkey round here...

🙂 I felt it was a waste of a copy and paste when I noticed where it came from, only as I was doing it. 🙂

From the Beeb gossip page, taken from the mail. Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl's position is uncertain and the south coast club are looking at former RB Leipzig manager Domenico Tedesco and Manchester City assistant boss Enzo Maresca as possible candidates to replace the Austrian. (Mail)

From the Beeb gossip page... Leeds have agreed personal terms with Cody Gakpo and are now working on a fee with PSV Eindhoven for the 23-year-old Dutch winger who had also interested Manchester United.(Mirror

Was that a satyrical reply? 🙂

Sequel

There's just no future in a nostalgia thread. 🙂 Now that's out my system, nearly all my Saints stuff is in my parents loft. I've definitely not got the horrid Dimplex one with the v at the top. Just a pile of hagiography books round here somewhere.

Stealth

There's a joke in there about at least Amazon can be counted on to deliver something, but I'm not making it. 🙂

Our performances don't deserve upper case. 🙂

If it's anything like their list of potential strikers they'd have liked to have brought in, Ralph could be here for ages. 🙂

An innovative, interlocking human pyramid in the goal. RalphBall v3 10-0-0 🙂

Radio chuffed for TAA putting Liverpool ahead, as if scoring somehow balances the poor defensive ability, which is why he's not picked for England.

For a second I thought he'd been sent off for a high boot, before I remembered who Boot was. 🙂

My memory is of annoyance when NA would make tactical subs against bigger Prem teams, when we were clearly on top of them. He must have been doing something right to be in that position. There were signs we were getting to grips with the season when he went. His record with us shows he was easily good enough for the two leagues below. Remember, when you are feeling stressed or are in a bad place, just ask yourself "What Would Nigel Do?" and let that positivity in. 🙂

Hubby will have been looking at his contract to see if there was a wage reduction on relegation clause in there.

Being surrounded by alcohol seems like a good place to be when you hear the score. 🙂

Despite being poor, Forest still managed to create 3 excellent chances, that they then wasted.
