Gloucester Saint

I’d go for Challinor - organisation, fitness, cut the Martinball out with fines in training.

Might be the first time the two sets of fans have ever sung the same song at the same time.

Horrific domestic ratings - and this before the impact of the ICE murder in Minnesota kick in https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/01/polling-trump-popularity-policy-immigration-economy-election/

I couldn’t believe it when I heard that, but many posted that on here and said it online so it has to be true. Not just soft, but very dense and simple as well.

SR needs to sell its clubs and get out of the industry. Rasmus Ankerson et al have spaffed Solak’s money up the wall.

At least after getting walloped there, the fanbase doesn’t have to pretend to support the likes of Flynn Downes, Ryan Manning and Nathan Wood any longer and get stuck in. The more piss takes the better. Give them some of the misery they’ve enforced on the fans.

If you were under 40 and wanted to know what my generation and older talk about when they describe what the poorer Division 1 grounds used to look like in the 1970s and 1980s, the Milton end at the Fish Shed is it.

The France-Ireland game being on a Thursday night - saw that and thought ‘WTF?!’

It was on going home with Adam and Joe - pretty scathing.

Completely different situation and level of experience.

Martin’s trio from Swansea. Loathe all three of them. Wood joins Bazunu in my worst ever XI from both the Championship and PL, I think Manning is making a very strong case to be in it as well. Need to loan in a CB, DML and put Wood and Manning in the bomb squad.

Best suited at Russell Martin’s house on matchdays or wherever Russell Martin turns up next.

Neil Maddison, ex-Boro and Saints midfielder, made exactly this point to Adam Blackmore at Boro (2 mins in) https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0ms2cfm

Eckert’s interview as well, if you can stomach it. Stronger questioning from Blackmore than we’ve heard for a while. Although he should have said the first goal was due to needless passing at the back. Pure denial, no-one gives a shit about XG. And he took Fellows off when Stewart was on. He knows he’s out of his depth the kid, Tessem does, the players do, the whole league does https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0mvmb06

No longer a Labour Party member even and hasn’t been since 2019. 80 in June though, so perfect for Reform’s demographic. Mail turned on Farage today with Bob’s self-aggrandising’New Sheriff’ two pager leaked. Combined with Trump’s behaviour and rudderless local authorities, the air is coming out of their tyres.

They’re also right that Ross Stewart should have screaming in the dressing room afterwards at the lack of crosses and slow ponderous Martinball after he scored. ’Cross me the fucking ball. Never mind the slow shit, your job is feed me and I’ll score again. Pull your fucking fingers out’.

His own Senate would impeach him - the GOP are growing increasingly uneasy and any prospect of conflict with NATO members would be beyond the pale. Agree on your analysis of Trump 💯 and the US is going to have to look seriously at how someone like him can be barred from being put forward let alone being elected.

The lovechild of Ankerson and Spors

Good summary by Blackmore and Tessem, like Alfie House has been very recently far more critical and astonished at the lack of anyone being bothered. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0mvmhyj

In the case of Aribo, no need to even do that. He should have been set clear targets on body fat ratio and match fitness since the last transfer window which if he’s not met the club should be entitled to rip up his contract. If they’ve drafted the contract properly anyway… Don’t know what happened to Edozie, more mentions of Lord Lucan.

Southampton’s schools haven’t improved since the 1990s then…

Any prospect of fighting a war with NATO - trade and/or military isn’t something the Senate will allow. He’d need two thirds of a majority to buy 🇬🇱 and the price tag would be unaffordable when he’s already tanking their economy back towards Great Depression levels. Just because the morons around him support it because they fear him and Vance will harass them if they don’t (look at what Trump is doing to John Bolton) it doesn’t mean a legislative assembly will allow him to do it. His only option would be by force and UK and Europe would have to go to war with Trump because Denmark is part of NATO.

But you’d like to be (not as in age) 😉
