Saint Stimp

Did the De Ridder song get going at any point?

I'll trust Nigel Adkins over you if that's all right.

Swap deal for Puncheon anyone?

More realistic than Barton tbf.

Unless you've been watching De Ridder for significantly longer than the rest of us, there's no way you've got enough information to make that assumption yet.

Not taking anything away from Delap's goal, but the flight of the ball made it a lot easier for him to strike it that Rooney's. Rooney's came from a pacey cross that had travelled some distance, whereas Delap's ball was floating in the air, therefore a lot easier to get the timing right. Yes Rooney hit it with his shin, but the timing and athleticism was incredible.

It's much better with the solent commentary over it. Also, the sound effects are annoying and it's lazily edited. We don't need to see 2 slow motion replays of missed chances..

You could easily say that about Ox, Jaidi, Guly and Barnard, but replace those players with whoever Adkins does decide to play and the back-up team doesn't really get any weaker.

Excellent, can't wait to see this lad play.

it would also sound awful as the words don't fit.

Some good songs here, but it might help if we actually choose one this time rather than just having the usual big list of songs which all fade into obscurity? Poll maybe?

De Rid... De Rid... De Ridder's on fire

Let's all have a disco, let's all have a disco.. **** off.

Agree. Cracking goal today.

Like it, 'Chambo stay at Southampton' might be a bit more obvious though. Hope the atmosphere is better than the all-stars game, I'm not sure given the unreserved seating.

I think someone's having a laugh on wikipedia there. If he'd grabbed 58 goals from midfield in 3 seasons I very much doubt he'd be signing for us..

Ceefax?

This, reversed colours with a saints badge.

Would have been nice to see Lallana take the number 8 shirt, I assume it's his choice to keep 20 though. I'm sure Cork will do it justice.

You might want to have a look at this again...

That's a pretty ridiculous statement right there.

Alright Matthew Le God... calm down. Ian White doesn't have a wikipedia page.

Radhi Jaidi bends down and imitates Robbie Fowler's infamous celebration, much to the dismay of our Swiss hosts.

Interesting? I'd say disappointing.

I think the first match Crouchie played in was the pre-season friendly with Chievo. The boos that rang out in the Northam made me embarrassed to be a Saints fan.
