Harry Reed is the next Paul Scholes, he bossed the first half last night, great first touch, always probing forwards, tackling, made the first goal with his run forward and shot. Was unlucky to get booked first time I thought does this suspend him for PL games?

Got mine in Block 46 of the Northam now, must be working their way around from the Itchen. Which means on the night can walk further along and take a seat behind the goal in 44 or 45 as this must be where all the walk up fans will be put into. Should have printed at home rather than collected though by the sound of it!

Kick the xxxx out of them how many bookings did we get today for nothing by that clown, at least make it worth it!

Good article on SSN earlier today forgotten how close they came to going out of the FL and being liquidated; then -17 and -10 points amazing really, especially when you consider what the Skates did at the same time! Hope they come up would be good to have a proper local derby….

Sha la la la la la la la, WTFILN - we all are!!!!!!!!!!!

City one up already…..

Why oh why did he play Big Vic yesterday when not needed/so close to the limit, when Stoke away a much more physical game than Hull at home??!!

If the pundits discussed Pelle's left arm hook as a red, why no debate on Bruce being the last man when he took out Long?

4 years ago to the day we won at Orient in the sun. Happy days!!

Our last 3pm Saturday kick off at home this season, so make the most of it all you traditionalists and football purists. Get the first/early goal and it will be like a dam breaking….Pelle must score, he just has to…. Games like this cannot come quick enough for me after a poxy defeat

Trabzon and the area around is known as the gun capital of Turkey, many rural inhabitants own guns and shoot them off for fun regularly. This sounds more organised though, bus was on the way back to the airport. Buradan cikis yok!

We looked too stretched when 3 up front; Mane has to play more central/closer to Pelle, that is our issue right now, as Long and Elia cannot beat a man or deliver a cross into poor old GP who always has one or two CBs up his rear and no team mate nearby! Tadic and or Davis in behind; no one seems to want to drive directly at a defence or take them on, so frustrating. Says something when a team/Club like Everton get one nil up and then sit back deep and deny us space.

We will really struggle next season if we lose NC, TA, VW and MS, far more than losing RL, AL, DL, LS and CC last year.

Why though?

Just seen on SSN that Kanes 3rd goal v Leicester, which was going wide before it deflected off Huth, will stand for him; yet Pelles and Mane's shots were own goals. Who on earth is on the is Panel, because stone me they are Dubious to say the least!

How far down the mountain side is our ever increasing snowball??!! 50 years of watching Saints 74 - 79 was a similar period - relegation, cup win, promotion, Wembley, but 2010 - 2015 compares very favourably indeed. (the 70's had better away games though, much more fun…!!)

I would take 5th place now purely to be above Spurs and Liverpool - April 25th will be key. I think we are in a race for that spot, the gap is too much to expect to overtake and we still have 8 tough games to play, none will be easy at all.

Game of two halves, what a difference! Tadic had a mare first half, gave the ball away several times, thank goodness for KD, why is everyone worried about him? Better if we don't pass the ball back to him needlessly! Feel for Pelle, he worked so hard just not going for him but he is getting muddled in the box for sure - great hold up play. Loved Big Vic crunching through those three tackles, he is awesome…We March On

Well, at last, back to a 3pm Saturday kick off, so pleased about that! I don't think they will park the bus like the last four teams at SM did, just not their style of play or their strength. Interesting to see Tottons finest back! Is he better than Shane Long right now? Looked good last night v Man C.

Just thank God the refs are blind at SMS and don't give us any penalties!!

FF making up for earlier

4 home games left, all winnable, Spurs is our Cup final imo; 6 away , forget two of them, other 4 we probably will have more opportunities so we could win 8 out of 10 24 more points 73 in total.

Decent referees and lines people/assistants whatever they are called these days….

Lets hope its a cold frosty icy day then…..

TGFT!!!!!!! Now, did the ref not book 27 (delaney) twice in the game or not?? No one else mentioned it on here but everyone around me thought so.
