Newcastle had the magic carrot of being in the relegation zone to give them fight. We don't have that, or any fight. Almost like the players want a holiday and will pick up the pace once we look like we are in proper trouble.

Good stuff Gentlemans bet then? Spurs win by 3 goals or more you pay £10 to a charity of my choice. Any other result and I'll do it for one of your choice? Deal?

Problem is that as it currently stands Saints have no bite or balls. Newcastle are/were desperate for a win and went for it. We won't. We will play out usual game and get punished again.

Can see this being a cricket score for them. Yoshi will start, as will Gazzaniga.

Totty

my eldest 2 (5 and 8 at the time, just before the start of the season) in their shirts. 5/6 and 7/8 sizes. Both of them short to middle in height in their years.

Sounds the same age range and size of my middle boy. He has the 5/6 home kit and it's a perfect fit.

Weren't we offered Campbell a season or so back, or was that just rumour?

We have plenty of leaders out there, that really isn't 1 place we are short!

****ing hell! I'll have a couple of what you've been sinking sir....

^theres 5 mins of my life I won't get back. Grown men name calling on Twitter over football. How original.

Thanks that's what I assumed but wanted to make sure I wasn't going mad. Tbf, seen worse!

I might be being thick here, but what's the context?

We should really have put him under more pressure after his yellow card. We never do that.

Yeah this. After the game I can't remember being ****ed off at Stek at all to be honest.

Wow really? I could list over a handful of awful decisions by the ref and the linesmen that clearly should have been given our way but weren't.

Going into this with no form against a club who are desperate for a win (more than us, we just look lazy and confused). Villa will go at our back line from the off and if they have done their home work they will work the ball through the middle of our pack and target Fonte, Yoshida or Caulker. VVD will try but he can't do it all by himself and him being sucked out by a runner will expose us. 2-1 Villa IMHO. Not knee jerk, based on the last handful of games.

This. I hate to be a bit of a bed wetter but it has shades of a very troubled season ahead with injuries.

Feel this thread needs a bump. Ron will walk in June imho

Ha ha, what? Get over it mate, he left you for someone better looking.

Which one of our strikers are you referring to? Must be JRod. That's weird as I can't recall him passing backwards. Odd.

Lol.

Klopp has got them playing properly, they will rip us a new one. 3-0 them is my betting.

WGS, Pards, Ron, Poch, Nige, Burley, Hod.
