He would certainly compete for a space with Ross Stewart unfortunately it would probably be the Physio's room then again we do like signing a crocked player!!

Maybe we should employ a tactic of old and buy a Portuguese mate for him as we did with Imants Bleidelis for Pahars and Kleber Chala for Delgado

Birmingham at away is my bet for first game

Monday January 27th 1992, I was 9 years old day before my dad's birthday, for his birthday we were going to watch Saints v Man Utd in the FA Cup. It was a big deal as it was a school night only being 9 and it was Man Utd. We went to pick my mum up from work and as we we're waiting for her Kevin Keegan parked next to us he was picking his daughter up from La Sagesse Convent School in Romsey. We spoke to him for a bit and he asked me if we were going to the game and what I thought the score would be. He predicted a draw and that we'd win in the replay. Even as a 9 year old I thought he was being optimistic. We drew 0-0 on the night and won on penalties at Old Trafford the game where Tim Flowers ran the length of the pitch after saving the deciding kick (from I think Ryan Giggs)

You are right it was 17

I was talking with a fellow committee member of a grassroots football team up here in the West Midlands last night who is a Watford fan. He'd heard rumours that Cleverly had been linked. I asked him of his opinion. He loved him, thought he was/is going to be a top manager and in his words "too good for Watford" and deserves better than their merry-go-round of managers. Took them on a 29 game unbeaten run last season which I didn't know. Just passing on a Watford fans view. Before anyone jumps on the attack.

Can't be any worse than the shit we've been served up this season. The Wednesday fans I know all rave about him, or at least did up until our interest back in January.

I don't want it but I have a feeling that Rohl will take a job in Germany and we'll end up with Gerrard with Lallana as assistant.

It's not a out justice and fairness though is it. It's about what shirt your wearing. We all know that had that been a Saints player on Salah they'd have been walking. I would also hazard a guess that if the first penalty incident had been Van Dijk taking Smallbone it wouldn't have been given.

I still think Ings would score more than Armstrong & Onuachu if he played same number of games. I thought Archer would have done better than he has. Maybe he hasn't settled? Can't see Onuachu wanting to play championship and we know Archer and Armstrong score goals at that level so worth keeping unless we're just looking to restock altogether for next season.

Carlos Alcaraz to Everton - this one makes me a bit sad another player that Martin didn't like. Think he'd be alright under Juric

No, we did this with Selles after the win at Chelsea in is first game and that was as good as it got.

1/1 on SkyBet but 16/1 elsewhere 🤔

Mondays off!! that's another 500 sideways and backwards passes we could be practicing #MartinOut

Living up here in the West Midlands I obviously know a lot of Villa, Birmingham, Wolves, West Brom fans etc I've never really bought into this "we're a laughing stock" mainly because I don't think other fans really give too hoots. When we were relegated last time no-one up here cared. However, more and more recently I have these fans asking "why do you keep on playing out from the back when you keep making so many mistakes you're asking to be relegated" and "why is Martin so pig-headed"
