Saint Garrett

Fabianski, Fredericks, Dawson, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Rice, Soucek, Lanzini, Fornals, Yarmolenko and Haller their side apparently

Ah is this a hint. Thankyou

In my opinion, which I am entitled to, he is trash, has always been trash, and will never be good enough to play week in week out in the premier league. If he does, that side will struggle. Only my opinion.

Not sure anyone thought it was likely. Just that there was a tiny possibility that if we could keep everyone in form and fit, we might have a very slight outside chance if other teams dropped points. Unfortunately, not beating Arsenal when we arguably should have done, losing to City in a game we had a lot of the ball, and not being brave enough to attack Fulham, we’re now where I’d expect us to be. Injuries, and suspensions, have had an impact, we don’t have the squad depth. No team in the premier league will rely on players as good as Long and Stephens, and find themselves at the top of the league. Top half is still very good for us, especially now the “big 6” is now more like 8 with Everton and Leicester. We might be able to sneak 7/8th, but we need to find some form, and soon. And we need Ings to come back firing when fit, and stay fit.

Team is a worry, with no likely no Ings and Vestergaard. Stephens is trash, but think Ralph will stick with him Given Adams/Theo combination worked whilst Ings was injured before, I’d go back to this, and play two of Armstrong, Moussa or Redmond (if fit?) Romeu being back is massive for us. expecting a very tough game, against a very solid side. They won’t make the same mistake again against us, and play Noble unfortunately. We also seem to struggle a bit with teams that have full backs. Think they’ll come for a drawer, but play on the counter with Antonio and Haller up top. 1-1.

With multiple places being moved into Tier 3, does that now mean they’ll be unable to go on Saturday? What happens to those tickets already allocated to those people moving into tier 3 areas on Saturday morning? Will club re-allocate to others?

Cos they're linked with his agent, same with multiple other players.

If we bet them they're well in it. With potentially huge games against Brighton and WBA over the Christmas period. They play Us, Everton (A), Chelsea (H), Brighton (H), WBA (A)

I'm expecting the same, however Arsenal out of form, and terrible home record, and City don't look anything like they did a year or two ago, and we beat them back in whatever month it was. If we could somehow sneak both of these, then of course we're well in contention for a top 6 place. If you look at it from a negative perspective, we never beat Arsenal away, City is still City, Fulham found some form, West Ham our bogey team, Liverpool are Liverpool, could be 5 losses.... Personally I think we're a better side (and seem more consistent) than a lot of teams in the league this season. I expect Liverpool & Spurs to be out ahead, and maybe Chelsea & City, and us to be battling with Man Utd, Wolves, Leicester, West Ham, Everton and possibly Villa for the remaining 6-11th positions. Think anything lower than 8th would be a failure given where we are now, and how well we've been playing over the last 13/14 months. Because of the fact the top 6 aren't smashing everyone this season, I think ou'll see 60 odd points get top 6, which works out at only about 1.4 points per game between now and the end of the season.

We've been allocated 13:30, but don't really want to get there that early if I'm honest. Hopefully it's no bother heading down at 14:00/14:15.

Anyone know how strict they are with the “entry time” on the ticket?

Weirdly, the guy who I am "bubbling" with, has received nothing from saints, but I have received his ticket. Odd.

Yes, when you login online all the prices are discounted. My new shirt arrived in the post Saturday.

Just received my email to go to the City game this weekend...buzzing!!!

TBF - even a second string at the moment could contain... Forster; Valery Stephens Salisu Vokins; Diallo Smallbone; Redmond N'Lundulu Tella Djenepo And that ignores Long, Obafemi, Slattery, Ramsay, Ferry, Jankewitz and our "normal lot".

If Obafemi does go out on loan, It would be the end of him as a Saint. Ralph said last week, they have no interest in loaning players out who they think will go on to play regularly for the first team. The same reason that Sims and Hesketh are out on loan...it's done to get them a move.

Feels like that, which would be a shame. Or trying to put pressure on Bertrand to sign.

Who'd have thought we'd be thinking about it, but he's another player along with Ings and Armstrong who is out of contract at the end of next season...

When do we find out whether we've been successful for Saturdays game or not? Has that already been done?

London moved into tier 3 from Wednesday, so no fans at the game.

Another player who Ralph has improved significantly. Not sure there is one player who he hasn't since he's been here....top manager.

I quite like Jenas, I'll let him off, he held his hand up after the next game!

Impressive Romeu 😂

Precaution more than anything today I think. He’ll be fine Weds

Another win tonight. Will be pushing top 6 this season for sure. Declan Rice is a superb player.
