How close to the opponent's goal do you have to be for it to be a clear opportunity?

Was Broja's effort that hit the post a 'clear opportunity' when he received the ball circa three quarters of the pitch away from the opponent's goal?

NEVER. ANY. DOUBT

I've got a Saints supporter feeling about this now.... #missedopportunities

One. More. Game

Yay. First set

Is it too soon to start our annual chortle fest?

It's ok... Calendar year form doesn't count...

0-0 Didn't see that coming...

Saints B regular Caleb Watts not in the squad for tonight's game. Contender for the first team bench tomorrow? (Which would tend to indicate one of Romeu, Diallo or JWP is a doubt?) (Yes, I know, lots of 2+2=5 thinking there)

Hats off to you sir. Don't think I can muster a witty retort to match that one so I'll have to concede the banter crown this evening I'm afraid

Ha, good spot. She thinks her son is wonderful too, mind, so her judgement may well be a tad suspect...

This thread is depressing when ever I see new posts I have a look hoping it will be news of a takeover just to find people talking about people talking about nothing

My mum reads the Daily Mail and thinks she's wonderful

I know I've pondered on this before but why on God's Earth hasn't Factless Allen been snapped up by one of the nationals yet? That he's still dwelling in the cesspit of a tinpot local rag like 'The News' (sic) is a desperate waste of his many talents.

Agree with this. I wouldn't begrudge JWP a move to the likes of Liverpool next summer. I want him to forge a regular place in the England squad and, rightly or wrongly, the only way he'll realistically achieve that is by stepping up a level or two in the PL. And, yep, it's the best (only?) way of realising next season's wider transfer budget, given our 'self sufficiency' financial constraints.

Given leaving the EU was obviously the wrong thing to do, are we at least all agreed that any party standing on a 'rejoin the EU' ticket at the next general election would walk it? (apologies to my regular viewers for posting something a bit different to usual on this thread)

And not forgetting this timeless classic of course...

Assuming that's a cockney rhyming slang clue, have you heard something about us being taken over by these guys...?

I sometimes ponder upon how much the sneering of clever folk influenced the vote of the not-so-clever folk thus tipping the end result in a certain direction. It may have had no influence at all, of course, but I do like to wonder from time to time

Wasn't Armstrong's injury originally described as a 'minor calf injury'? Would appear to be more significant than that given he's been out of action for best part of a month now?

Damn... I had 15 hours 47 minutes on the 'First person to mention her heritage' sweepstake. So close but, alas, no cigar

Through to the US Open semis... First ever qualifier to do so... A superstar in the making or a flash in the pan? I'm going for the former.
