Trust me, with all the new and current players having a solid week of training (not 2 days like this week) we'll be a different team next weekend. We were all waxing lyrical (as were all the pundits) about how great we played against Manure and how we dont look out of place in the Prem.
I'm happy as long as its for only one season. Maybe NC thought it would be a good idea as you could argue it looks more professional - maybe beneficial as he tries to open Saints up to be a global brand (eg in Japan)
We dont look out of place in this league and will certainly be one of the more exciting teams once Ramirez has played a few games. Our defence needs to get used to this league though. You cant blame them that much consiring who've theyve been up against over the past 2 years. Its a learning curve plus I think the new Yank goalie and Japanese captain will help. Keep the faith.
United have been poor so far. Depends heavily on RVP for me. If he gets going, we'll lose. If not, it could be a good day for me. Lets play our new Jap defender and tell him to take of RVP.
This is quite sad really. It was quality watching Sharps reactions when we got promoted. The emotions he showed after a tough year was great to see. He was so happy to be in the Prem.
I start supporing Saints in Keegans first season. I was 7 and I thought Saints must be one of the best and bigger teams if Keegan plays for them. I think we were quite high up the table then too.
must have been sh1t odds.
FFS one of the plusses of being in the PL is you have a genuine chance of getting to Wembley in this cup or in the FA cup (semi). Why the f are we clearly not trying.
Even though I dont qualify for a ticket for the Emirates until Friday, I went online anyway to see if I could get some. They are stamped as SOLD OUT. Is this right?
Did anyone else thing it's turned up to high. I could only see the Northam End screen but it looked like we were playing in bright red shiny shirts and on thick green astroturf.
Obviously not an issue coz if you looked on the actual pitch you could see the real colours.
