The Cat

We're generally shit at Goodison but pick up a fair few wins at Leicester. Plus it's closer and has my favourite away game place to eat so it's not all bad.

Did Vardy cry? I hope so.

Nice finish by Armstrong, good confidence boost before he tears up the Championship

What a goal

Some chap, maybe 60, turned up absolutely hammered on his own after 10 minutes. Couldn't find his seat so showed his ticket which was an U18 ticket to a guy near me to try and work out where to sit. Pissed bloke then sat down and promptly fell asleep. He's gone down at half time, hopefully for more beer.

Entertaining first half. Quite often get a fun last game of the season match when neither team has anything to play for. Pretty good atmosphere in the ground too. Surprisingly didn't see any Liverpool fans near us celebrate their goals considering how many people lobbed tickets on the exchange.

Pity he was millimetres offside for the disallowed goal at Brighton, would have been relatively nice way to sign off in an otherwise inconsistent return to Saints. Can't fault the effort and he has played a bit better in the past few months but overall it wasn't a great decision to bring him back.

I'm at a festival, just watched two Coventry fans watch the penalties on their phone. The chap on the left was absolutely mortified!

Are we allowed to clap him off tomorrow for the years of service, goals and great memories, or will that be frowned upon?

When people say stuff like we are a laughing stock you have to take a step back, look at the bigger picture and realise no one has time to laugh at us because they are too busy pissing themselves at Chelsea and Spurs.

If we're good at attacking and a bit ropey at defending then surely we're in for some entertaining, high scoring games which should make for some well overdue excitement at St Mary's. Would rather draw 3-3 than 1-1, or win 4-3 than 1-0.

We aren't a small club, we're a medium sized one. Someone like Mansfield or Rochdale or Stockport would be seen as a small club, not someone like us with a decent size stadium and fan base. Also, why would you think there's a small ambition when the club spent crap loads on players in January and to appoint Jones and then more money to sack him? Surely a club with small ambition wouldn't bother to sign relatively expensive players or pay compensation to a manager.

If that amount is correct and Crab Lungs was right about the haggling then it seems we have negotiated a lower amount and the board should be congratulated.

Of course. It's strange that there's no middle ground for some people. In fact it's more likely that we start off with some inconsistent results and then get better as the team plays together more.

Yeah, people singing "2 nil and you fucked it up" as we looked at the screen saying VAR check. FFS. At least next season we'll see people flying around an away end celebrating goals that actually count!

It obviously happens and possession football doesn't guarantee results, but then nor does any style. What gets results is players implementing the style and the tactics correctly. Part of that is making sure you have the right squad. Arsenal have won a shit load of games this season, the overwhelming majority of which they have had loads more possession than the other team. It took Arteta a while to get the right players playing the game how he wanted and once he did they exceeded all expectations this season.

Surprised no one has mentioned Saints legend Mark Paul.

No, I don't watch golf. I have a mate called Keegan which is why I mentioned it

Kevin Keegan

Plus the new recruitment guy from Aberdeen. Like you I'm in favour of the appointment and am looking forward to seeing the new staff working together to mould a new team who play in a different way.

Mainly during Jones and since because the old board members were given the chance to appoint Selles after SR sacked Jones. Now this has gone just as badly they are being cleared out, as we've seen some have already gone and pretty much anyone left from the old lot will be leaving at the end of the season.

Brighton fans celebrate qualifying for Europa League by leaving the ground early and silently queuing up for the train. We left on 87 and the platform was already full of their fans.

Was quite a good laugh in the away end. The celebration for the disallowed goal was superb, people flying everywhere.

We were, it got confiscated. And there was an inflatable penis.

Or maybe not.
