Football Special

At 3-0 down Leicester fans were singing we want 9 and 'Southampton, it's happened again ' Just home now, it's a funny old game as Saint and Greavsie would say

No genuinely left , one of life's lessons , was back in pub when. Goals.went in

Left at 3-0 , fucked it right up. Fuck sake Saints

In the 1993/94 PREMIER LEAGUE season i went to Saints v Chelsea on 27th December followed by Manchester City v Saints 28th December, marvellous stuff

Agree it does my head in, they approach playing matches with trepidation, oh no it's a 3 game week, how will we manage. Work on getting the players fitter Saints and it might not be so daunting

Yeah to compensate for that we need others in the squad to start taking their chances, feels like Azaz should score more from chances he gets. Of course we might not need to score as many now we're a team who can keep clean sheets

I wouldn't make any changes at all unless we absolutely have to with injury to Downes, I did think most of our team look absolutely knackered in the last few minutes against Watford, yet we'd had all week to prepare whilst they'd had a game up at Hull. Saints coaches need to address lack of fitness in the squad rather than calculating which players need resting all the time

It really is a three horse race for the title, surprised to see Hull and Millwall so far out, is there a similar odds table for finishing top 6? Would be interesting to see where we are for that

Tonda and the data boys don't want our players to miss minutes through injury, they'd rather they missed minutes preventing injury

50 years ago a team in the 2nd division went to Wembley and shocked the footballing world to win the FA Cup, I know that was then but it could be again....

Think they just included a few questions about it post match after Watford on Saturday , I've got a feeling we'll see a few changes as we're so obsessed with managing the minutes of some players

Cheers @trousers have stuck a tenner on a double 👍

Rochdale we took good numbers as it was rearranged and lots wanted to tick the ground off?, in fact that season was impressive Hartlepool midweek had about 800 up there , Oldham is a good shout midweek in January but again was a ground we hadn't played at for a while. Leicester seems to be perfect storm of short notice/ midweek / poor form / played there loads (every year) , didn't expect it to be popular but thought we'd get at least 1000 up there

Genuinely struggling to think when we last took so few away, possibly Sunderland midweek January 2003

We're 14th in the Championship, we don't need to be brought back down to earth
