The temperature is likely to be mid to high 20s on Thursday p.m... that should favour us in theory, given this will be Arsenal's 3rd game in 8 days. i.e. we should be fresher/fitter.

So, I'm guessing we want the bin dippers to win this one to keep the dugout kings within spitting distance?

I suspect, for consistency, Ralph will want to field an unchanged starting 11, especially as we have almost a full week between our first two games of the restart. That said, I'd be inclined to replace Obefemi with Long, assuming the latter is fit by then.

😂

Anything without the 'band' (aka 'bra') across the top is fine by me. A sash kit is pretty distinctive and uncluttered, so it's a thumbs up from me 👍

Anyone got a link to a decent stream for this one? FirstRow very hit and miss

Decent first half, after the first rusty 10 mins. Carried dominance over into 2nd half and a deserved win, tempered slightly by Norwich being very poor. Still question marks over Valery's and Obefemi's decision making but still very early in their careers. The Saints are staying up.

He popped by a few hours ago...

Ralph making about 16 subs there to waste 5 mins or so

Missing those already

Game over!!

Get in!!!

Familiar script so far... Shaky start, dominate the remainder of the half, concede goal just before half time due to lapse of concentration in defence...

Ings hits the woodwork!

Anyone got a line on Saints commentator bingo yet? I'm close...

Wasted by Redmond there

I'm sensing this might not be a 0-0 after all...

Good job it doesn't usually take us around 9 games to get into our full stride...

Early mistake by Valery

Interesting to see Nathan Tella coming through at long last. He looked very promising after joining us from Arsenal academy but then seemed to drift away somewhat (I appreciate he's been injured for a significant proportion of that time though)

I got the new site the first time I fired up the forum on my laptop just now, but then it went back to the old site when I clicked on a link. And now it won't show the new site at all. Same on phone. Only way I can access it at the moment is via incognito browser. Looking good though.
