Football Special

Romeu will surely be in the squad and hopefully play at some point, will be good to see him back , something to look forward to at least

Handful of tickets have become available in case anyone still after one

Was that the Wolves at home game when we were 1 up against 10 men and still managed to lose? Ah those were the days 🤣

Imagine being one of the managers interviewed so far and then reading that, safe to say none of them are being offered the job (if we did indeed speak to some managers)

Depending where you are travelling from look at cross country via Reading to Paddington, doesn't take much longer than normal

Is anyone actually coaching the players? I heard Trollope not around but not clear if waiting for this Wolves move. Seems like a complete mess behind the scenes

When you listen back to his interview now I see it slightly differently than I did at the time

I fully expect them to have no points deduction

They genuinely don't know what they're doing but are too arrogant to ask for help and pay actual experienced football people to advise them so drift from one balls up to the next

I agree I think they'll want to get them sold and travel sorted to plan picks up etc, not clear if we'll all have to go to St Mary's, I understand from meeting earlier in the year police were open to multiple pick up locations for buses like the skates did. Also don't think you'll need *that* many aways Oxford away likely to sell out to season ticket holders with 20 aways made me laugh , such a rubbish allocation for a localish game

He also took us to a cup semi final Am I right in thinking he was married into a Saints supporting family?

No point in hating Nathan Jones, he was with us for such a short period , at the time I blamed Sports Republic for the appointment , Jones was recruited by them and poached from Luton and the failure is all on them (Ankerson)

Think it counts once the game has been played

Sorry that's not correct. Line is closed in Woking area but there are direct trains from Southampton to Waterloo, trains diverted via Havant but you don't need to change at Fratton. Depending on where you start the journey could be worth taking cross country train to Reading and into Paddington from there, quick route. If going direct this looks best

I'm hoping Charlton will be disrupted with Bree being unavailable, they also have a couple of players away on international duty with Jamaica who play a world cup qualifier in the early hours of Wednesday morning, clutching at straws here but could give us a chance. I can't remember ever seeing us win at The Valley, similar to Bristol City and Blackburn it's a ground that for whatever reason we just have a poor record, lots of draws though. Last win away to Charlton was 89/90 season when they were playing at Selhurst Park!

Bonkers isn't it. Not a job you can just audition for in a handful of games , get a proper manager in Saints FFS

Mouth watering

Yes there is, Derby have just won 5 in a row with a proper manager (for this league) would gladly swap with them

Think I'm happy for Nathan to take all the attention pre-match. Saturday 12.30 games often feel quite flat, can see this being a 0-0 or 1-1 Do Charlton have many away on international duty?

Has Paul Trollope left for Wolves already? Seems a real shortage of staff on the training ground ? Are we making the most of this two week break?

Correct

Hello Tonda, thanks for dropping in and taking the time to post, thanks for the two wins but off you trot back to the u21s to see how hungry their eyes are. Cheers.

Unbelievable ending for Ireland, Manning, Azaz and even sub Baz must be buzzing after that

It's quite a few less than the games at St Mary’s I've been at

Went to watch the ladies v Durham earlier ,frustrating game ending in a 1-1 draw , can't see us challenging for promotion unfortunately Small crowd in just over 1k I think at Eastleigh's ground
