Nice kit,is that the second or third kit. There is a small mini stadium,shame we couldn't have gone.

Pound shop Haaland, perfect!

Derry

Anybody got Roger Milla’s number?

Big tall guy,kept himself in good shape. Reads the game and a good talker. Decent with the ball at his feet. I'd definitely have in goal over Bazanu, #wethinkdifferently

Was going to say, did he run sideways and backwards?

Thanks for the replies, shame, we have a little bit of Benfica in the family and would have gone if it was possible.

Benfica still listing a game with Saints at St George's Park on 12 July. Never been, is there any sort of mini stadium there, or is this just a closed-doors, training ground, practice match thing?

So, if we finish above Leic and Leeds we are very likely to go up.? Based on at least one of the relegated teams going back up in recent seasons. That makes the challenge somewhat clearer can we finish above Leic and Leeds?

I will drive him there myself, going to see Bruce at Villa Park next Friday so it's on my way. £30m and play Stephens, no brainer.

If Martin does start work next week then the board are to be congratulated for getting on with it. no excuses now not to get the players in and out early and a decent pre-season.

In what way are Leic and Leeds worse off? Genuine Q Why are we 'best placed' to return? We don't know anything really about how (who) the new manager is going to step up, or any idea about what the team will be (ditto Leeds and Leic). I think we could well be top 8, middle 8 or bottom 8; come back to me after 15 games and I will have a bit more idea.

Dissapointing about Alcaraz, reckon he would have been good in the champ. No surprises with the others.

Tin hat on, I'd have Bednarek as captain next season.

Tall Paul must be one of the all time worst PL signings, Dover will have him next season, if Saints pay his wages.

Adams really poor tonight.

Impersonating a footballer, time they were all required to show photo ID before being allowed on the pitch.

Sorry, assuming next season's manager plays players in their best positions. Radical I know,but we can hope.

Nice to see Stu looking sharper, think he could be a decent option next year if he can get/stay fit and injury free.

Anyone still think Bella K is any good?

There used to be a pub quiz question, 'Which is the largest town/city never to have hosted top flight football?', and the answer (used to be) Hull. Maybe Plymouth are the new Hull?

1-1

I’m thinking that’s a third of the remainder of our league, depressing that we are quite a bit shitter than all these teams, and all the other thirteen teams as well.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2023/apr/22/underdogs-brighton-triumphing-in-the-most-rigged-casino-game-of-all?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other Good article on Brighton in the G on Saturday. We get an honourable mention half-way down as a ‘former poster club’ (bracketed in with Swansea, anybody remember them?)

Yep, good move by RS to hide him away second half, had something of the shop window about his first half performance- And to think he couldn’t make the starting XI half a dozen times in our easy run of fixtures. Weird.
