Cuddles

Could you speak up please? We can't get it up the rear.

Interesting, thanks. My sponsorless one was ordered after the official launch. I also ordered one before the launch, which hasn't arrived yet. The listing had EPL badges lol

Did you get a sponsor on yours, Sal?

Quite a few berating Stephens (and rightly so for the cock up yesterday), and wanting to replace him, but by and large he has performed very well during 2026 for us.

It's unbelievable how salty Karen FC are still. Pathetic!

We normally come second when promoted though, no?

Right, I've not seen a genuine shirt up close so not sure if this is proper Totton Market in the 90s England shirt quality or a reasonable attempt 😂😂 The club crest is too small, as expected.

I thought Schmidt had left?

Annoyingly, this is where you need a last minute Shea Charles Humdinger 😥

Time to bring Larin on again

According to some AI thing, the average altitude of Southampton is 22 meters above sea level, whereas Portsmouth is 7. So technically we're already above them 👍

If we sell THB for under £20m I will indeed fall off my seat

Have you checked the board room? There may well be a 'Self destruct' button which automatically agrees £17m deals for players worth £30m plus. There is likely a sign next to it which says 'Do not press'. Fingers crossed no-one gets excited and presses it to see what happens.

Possibly, but not for £17m, surely? That's literally pressing the self-destruct button. Feels like a media campaign.

Is this the chap Adam Blackmore is always talking about during matches, sitting near them?

Legs?

We could loan him in a couple of years 👀

The owners have watched 90 minutes of Russball and thrown the towel in.

Late reply alert 😂 Get what you're saying, and I am only talking about this season as it's so critical. There's 6 playoff places up for grabs this time round and will be many more teams genuinely fighting for a playoff place come the tail end of the season. Easier games will be scarce. There's definitely an argument for momentum, but a game every three days is tough...will our squad this season be as resilient / versatile? Genuinely hope so.

I have a brick from the Archers Road end. Stopped and asked the demolition company for it on the way for an interview in town 😂

Benfica?

Is there some sort of hideous kit competition going on this year?? That is truly dreadful.

Anyone else long for a big black oblong sponsor box a la Draper?

Anyone received their home kit from DHGate recently? Interested in whether they've made the SFC badge larger yet. I have two in transit so probably won't find out for another month or two yet.

Boro? Deluded? Where'd you get that idea? 😂
