GTFI Was going to miss the Chelskie match because of a big golf competition on the Sat ! Sunday is perfect ! Gotta be a first as normally Sky screw me up big time !! Thanks Rupert, you’re a star !

With a small squad, I think that the Europa League matches will really stretch them to the limit and I think that they will struggle to emulate last season's success when they exceeded all expectations ! Should be good enough to stave off relegation but not much more IMHO !

I went on Saturday and I predict 2-1 Saints

Absolutely right, the whole thing is highly subjective but at least it confirms that Man U are (and always have been) a bunch of jammy bar stewards !

Those are the very obvious ones but Chelsea at home (no red card) and both Man City games (goals later than the added time) could easily have been included based on their criteria ! I think that we did suffer last season but compared to Stoke, who actually went down because of it, perhaps we got off lightly !

I have no idea what the starting lineup will be and right now I’m not sure that Sparky does either ! We need to get back to the relegation mentality of the tail end of last season though, fight for every ball and die for the shirt ! Having witnessed the last 2 friendlies I am intrigued to see how things evolve but am not building my hopes up as there still appears to be weaknesses throughout the squad and the system ! COYS

Arrived this morning ! Nice little red wallet thingy rather than the over ostentatious big box ! Roll on the 12th of August !!

Getting a bit worried now as I’ll be in France the day before and going straight to the match without going home ! Need to receive it by Wed latest or I’m in trouble ! Surely it’ll come by then ????

Watched Angus in the warm up yesterday and he was 'mustard' - very agile and nimble for a big guy (6'5" apparently) - very impressive and then he came on for the second half and kept a clean sheet ! Can't say fairer than that !

You can still get your ST discount if you show your confirmation email (I did) but you are quite right about the unavailability of the away kit in particular, it's a disgrace that UA are unable to supply a basic product which was designed months ago ! They clearly have 'supply chain' issues and should be penalised for lost sales at the very least ! Shabby performance from a 'so called' top brand name in the sports clothing sector !

I found the lights last night to have a distinctly 'yellowy' tinge but were pretty effective ! The big downside for me (sitting in the Kingsland) was that the red 'carpet' seemed to glow so brightly that it distracted my eyeline away from the pitch !

Thanks for your report, I was going to give mine once I got home from the match but you have saved me the bother, right down to the 'carpet', music and lights ! A fine summary, old chap !

He specifically said the he 'hates what the PL has become' ! It is you who hates what SFC is !

I've just bought some new bathroom lights from John Lewis, any chance you could fit them for me ??? :)

It's a nice kit and should probably be the main one as it's predominantly our team colours (ok, maybe needs a bit more white) but is totally unnecessary apart from ripping off some of our more naive supporters ! The yellow/blue alternative covers all options so I really can't see when we'd need to wear this 3rd one in competitive games !

Apparently he's on £120k per week so I reckon that will knock this one on the head ! https://sillyseason.com/salary/chelsea-players-salaries-67985/

Appears to be a 'ghost' game - non news whatsoever !

Clearly the management have no problem with him otherwise they would not have produced and shown the video in the first place. I'm sure that it was intended as a 'tongue in cheek', lighthearted snapshot of how things go at training camps, nothing more. How anyone can get upset by it baffles me and it certainly does not create an impression of disruptive behaviour in any way. Strange thread really !

I ordered two youth shirts for my grandsons with names and numbers on the back ! They quoted 7-10 days for store pick up and 12 days later sent me a mail saying that they had arrived in the shop ! After a half hour drive, I presented my printed confirmation and the (dozy) young girl went out the back for 10 mins to collect it, she returned and said that it wasn't there and must be on the next van on Saturday ! I stood my ground and insisted that someone else look so a (dozy) young lad searched for another 10 mins with still no luck ! I then asked for the manager with the intention of getting them to deliver it to my home with no extra charge and she said that before she took any other action she would have a quick look out the back ! Lo and behold, she returned with a parcel with my name on it ! She explained that it had been at the 'bottom of the pile' and half heartedly apologised for the inconvenience ! In the end the shirts were spot on and I saved over £60 so can't complain but it sure proves that 'customer service' is not a priority at Sports Direct ! I know all about the minimum wage issues etc.. but honestly, trained monkeys could have done a better job !

Harry Kane just got the golden boot for scoring against Tunisia and Panama ! I guess that makes him cr@p as well ???

Saints will finish mid table. Elyounousy will be a star. Hughes will be slated. Hughes will be praised. Ralph will talk gibberish. Les will receive an OBE. Saints will march on....

Fecking incompetent more like !

Same with me, is it actually on stream on the SFC website ??

Adam Blackmore reckoned that Tadic was the most polite and approachable guy you could come across so I doubt that he was disruptive in the dressing room at all !
