Toussaint

Made me chuckle, Homes and Watson reads Private Eye.

Oh well, you get my drift

They can no longer control the Frankenstein they have created.

I think this will be his last season for us, but I hope he is aiming higher than Spurs. I always saw him as a Man utd player, assuming they sort themselves out.

Let’s it go, let it go….🎶

Their wide players are better than ours, I think the defence probably is as well

Take a drive up to the Black County and kick Ait Nouri, both me and the cat will be in your debt

Hate is a strong word, but I hate Ait Nouri, there you have it.

That’s mainly down to Tella and Redmond being completely ineffective

I don’t think he is less shit, he’s been better lately but I didn’t expect it to last

I made the rookie error of looking forward to this game

May provoke a bit more effort in the transfer window?

It has, we have nothing going forward now and are vulnerable at the back

30 minutes more of wolves throwing themselves on the ground after every challenge

The thing that is really bugging me lately is his pretence of contending 50/50 balls and then subtly backing off to avoid contact.

Redmond has returned to type and is completely ineffective

Was it a cock up? I don’t think he did much wrong

You’d think so if the clear and obvious error still applies

I agree, he really doesn't deserve the crap he gets, heart of a lion.

I still have PTSD from losing 3-2 in 1977. It was my first full season supporting Saints and |I was totally convinced we could not lose at home, just as we could not win away. I was behind the goal in the Milton when some curly headed Coventry striker named Wallace got at least two goals. I left the ground feeling like someone had died, choking back the tears. A feeling not experienced again until we were relegated at SMS.

A few cocky comments on there, a few years ago the gap was much smaller between prem and the championship but now, even the poorer prem sides are way ahead of the championship, I think some are seriously underestimating us.

I didn’t realise how famous he was, I’m inundated with emails about Willy extensions

Just from the January window thread. I don't do Twitter. I presumed it had come from the new regime.

Talk of a "statement signing" which i interpret as a big name

“Yeah, I think in the short term not much change,” Semmens told BBC Radio Solent, when asked what Sport Republic’s acquisition means for Hasenhuttl’s future. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/19824924.southampton-takeover-mean-ralph-hasenhuttl/ I think the report may have been toned down a bit since I first read it a couple of days ago. Of course I may have got the wrong end of the stick.
