If I was Will I’d go on hunger strike until I got a number 9.

And there it is.

We’ll crack another one in shortly.

Injured again 😂 couldnt make it up

Very nice from Stewart

McCarthy only one of ours still playing

None of the relegated sides going up wouldn’t be surprising.

He's not getting selected for the World Cup whilst playing in the Championship. If Pope gets injured and he gets a run in the side, he has every chance of being in the mix.

The unbeaten run was a decent achievement but what prevented us from getting automatics was losing to promotion rivals. He should’ve been sacked in the summer anyway, but it would have taken guts that SR didn’t have

Knowing SR, he’ll be next season or the season after’s “experienced lad to hang around the building” following Walcott and Lallana.

GK required

Another must win to build some confidence in the team really.

On the same points Martin was on after 8 games now.

Full-time. we limp on!

We will go down as a club that had it all and GOT EVEN MORE Not STAYING IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP for a long time.

We’ll go down as a club that had it all and threw it all away Not getting back to the PL for a long time.

It could be a positive feedback loop. New manager comes in, sees Stephens has started under the last two or three (as captain no less), decides they should work backwards from him. Being a top guy in the dressing room probably contributes to that.

They've scored 2 (two) goals this season, with 1 of them coming from a scrappy 1-0 win against the 22nd-placed side. It's never a dead cert but we should have too much for them even with Wilder back. We need to keep the same 11 as last week though, except with potentially Archer and Jelert starting, so we can start building relationships across the pitch.

Blackburn perhaps? Finished 7th last year and currently sat in 20th on 6 points. Only appointed their manager in February, so a change may be seen as premature. Could be Derby alternatively - appointed Eustace in February and despite escaping relegation haven't kicked on yet this season.

My cousin had a baby girl some time ago. I suggested the name "Lydia" which she was fond of and ended up going with. Little did she know who inspired the name...

Tottenham equalise with Wolves in stoppage time. Collapsing at the last minute, that's a sign that a team is going down. Last year you just knew it was coming, every single week.

Take the point. Looking a lot better but strikers need to be more clinical Worth playing Archer ahead of Stewart?

Don't panic, still time

YESS!!!!

A solid first half of league football! That's a marked improvement. The physicality and energy is there now. Saints just need to be clinical and we can win this. I've been impressed with Wood, Armstrong, Jander and Charles.
