Indeed. A mirrored swing this season would see Leicester end up on 99 points, with us on 102. This season will either see Leicester easily win the league or collapse at monumental levels.

Insane signing.

It was tongue in cheek.

He'll still get a medal. Jealousy is ugly my friend.

Leverkusen 7 points clear now, he'll end up a title winner in his first season away from the club. Fair play to him.

It'll be a bit meh for me if we go up second. Back into the Prem sure but statistically likely to come straight back down again, so would rather win the league.

If we beat them then we only need to make up 5 points in 17 games. Definitely doable.

Not sure what Leicester players led by serial whinger Vardy have got to whinge about to the referee there.

Exactly. Long term thinking.

Leicester fans actually booing after that cross 😂

Get in there!

Some players really are brain-dead. Just because you CAN reach the cross doesn't mean you should stretch for it and knock it out for a goal kick to the opposition. If you wouldn't be able to control it then letting it go creates a more dangerous situation for the opposition.

Pitch invasion from both sets of fans so they get charged with that too.

Still rooting for Ipswich.

I don't remember a game not involving saints ever having it's own match thread before.

He was terrible in his last stretch with us and never should have been picked up by a Prem club.

No chance they send the away fans all the way around the stadium to push through all the fans coming out of the chapel, Itchen and northam.

Surprised to see Rendell on the bench, is she recovering from injury?

Fuck sake Preston.

Very fair point, and his accuracy for passes over 40 yards is the highest in the league - still only 45% so every other pass doesn't hit it's target but proof that his long range passing is more accurate.

You what? Player of the season? He isn't the keeper with the most passes (Leicesters) and while his pass completion is the highest in the league at 85%, there are 10 other keepers in the league with over 80%. His passing is good and keeps us ticking over but it isn't anything out of the ordinary. If he were pinging it directly to people anywhere on the pitch then fair enough, but i'm not going to fawn over a keeper for being able to pass it 10-20 yards accurately.

It didn't, it was an own goal. Shame really as it was an epic moment and he'll almost certainly never come closer than that.

God I hope the rotation isn't that bad. We should still be playing KWP and Arma at least, plus one of Downes or S.Armstrong. There's another week after the game as well so it's not exactly coming thick and fast.

I think we'll lose this with rotation to be honest. We'll probably see Charles, Stephen and Rothwell play, the first two have just been poor in general and Rothwell doesn't look up to speed at all (hence needing the game time).
