Perfect game this from Stoke. Just got enough technical players to run this game out, draw fouls etc.

Stoke now managing the f*** out of this game now. This game is done.

Push mower myself, much more refined cut IMO. Although I still reserve the hoover for when it's wet.

If I had a quid for every time a commentator mentions JWP fantastic delivery!!

Thought you were gonna break into Delilah ffs

Noticeably loud wasn't it

Haha the cheers when Forster caught that cross.

We'll have to come out and attack now tho :-p

If anyone scores we're on the pitch!

Jaysus this season is ending on a tepid note. How many other professions let you phone in a performance as regular as professional footballers?

Well I have enjoyed the second half.

Dang Boufal. He has the ball skills. Maybe Puel is right about him - next year etc.

Strange decision.

Much better 2nd half. We've had a go which was all I wanted to see. (well that and a goal of course)

I don't care what anyone says... Jack Stephens is doing alright.

F****** brilliant!!!

Damn. Carrick the footballing metronome is coming on.

I'm sucking the ball in here!!!! he bugger won't comply. Grrrrrrr

COYS!!!!!!! Oooo nuns!!!

Its blindingly obvious but this is the key. We are so ponderous and unwilling to commit. So many times we get into a good position, take a look around and no one is on the half turn or on the move. Pass and f****** move!!!! Its almost like they are afraid of hard work. Yeah the move might break down and you might have to "do a bit" to recover your position but f*** me - if you don't buy a ticket you'll never win the lottery. Now, I'm not one of the usual suspects in the match threads so I hope I won't receive a kicking. I certainly am not suggesting the mangers head should roll. Gah... I dunno what I am saying tbh. Just exasperated after watching that. Praying for an improved performance in the second half. The words of Mick Channon spring to mind from the History video... "we went on the park and had a bloody good go. If we got beat, we got beat. But we went out and had a bloody go". I think I would settle for some of that right now.

On the day that your mentality Catches up with your biology You want the one you can't have And it's driving you mad It's all over, all over, all over your post

Up to 8th on goal difference after Bromwich's result tonight. I can remember this scenario in the early 90's under Ball. Saints had the chance of 7th or 8th and royally messed it up losing last couple of games. Mad how our fortunes have changed these past few years.

Well that line up should keep us interested.

Could be a correlation with today's music in general? Bloomin' eck I sound like an old fart!

Is the inference in your post that you consider MLT the greatest player for Saints? Genuinely interested. I never saw Channon or Paine play.
