There you go Trousers, your wish is granted

Are we? I was under the impression that the main spending inhibiter was our FFP situation rather than a lack of funds, per se...?

We also have 6 games coming up in February (would be 8 games if the 4th round match goes to a replay and we end up going through to the 5th round), so I'd be leaning towards giving several of our regular first teamers a week off somewhere in the sunshine to recharge their batteries.

Some of my favourite Olympic sports....

I want to see Dibling given more than a cameo apprearance, so I'd have him in my starting 11 for this one. From what I've seen, he looks more than ready to step up.

You're skating on thin ice there.... (pun intended)

Does that make exchanging opinions on Saintsweb a sport...?

I wouldn't particularly class those as sports myself (although I'm sort of on the fence with chess), but if someone else perceives otherwise then fair enough; doesn't bother me what other people think about it.

?

That's handy, because I have no desire to change anyone's opinion nor 'prove' something is right or wrong*, unlike some on this forum.... (*the true definition of Boxing Day being the exception of course 😂)

I agree!

I suspected it wouldn't be too long before the conversation headed down this path. Valid opinions, of course; I just happen to hold the opposite opinion. All good and healthy to disagree though

I know I'm in danger of entering MLG-esque contrarian territory here, but if we are going to continue to use the cup as a means to give fringe players much needed game time, then it could be argued that a replay back at SMS would be a bonus/benefit in that regard....

Surely the greatest sportsman alive today? Another tournament, another victory. Still got it (and some) at the ripe old age of 48. As good as he's ever been right now. GOAT

Probably saving himself for next season when the prodigal son returns triumphantly to Saints after our glorious promotion as winners of the Championship... (And the answer to your next question is... Camden Town Stout... )

Why are you posting about human beings on a cat thread?

Leeds winning is an obvious blessing in disguise. They'll also win their next two before we play and put themselves ahead of us. They then become the hunted rather than the hunters. Then watch them crumble under the pressure. It's written in the stars, I tell you.

Never any doubt unfortunately #inevitable

2-1 Piroe...

And there it is... Penalty to Leeds

Into 6 minutes of added time This has got 2-1 written all over it

He just avoided doing just that

It's all kicking off. Sadly, a late goal here for Leeds is inevitable...
