  1. Merrington praising some excellent play by Saints going forward.
  2. Great shot from Barnard. Saved.
  3. Tyrell Forbes scores from a free header. 1-1
  4. Lambert takes the free kick. Deflected into the net! 1-0!
  5. Free kick - just outside of the D. Dead centre.
  6. Merrington: a wonderful start, only a matter of time before we score.
  7. Lambert involved in most attacking play. Barnard off the post!
  8. Butterfield and Puncheon linking up well on the right.
  9. Live at the stadium. One minute's applause.
  10. Tribute to Markus Liebherr on Saints Player now.
  11. It's working for me. Keep trying!
  12. BBC Football reports that Thomas-Moore has put in a request to leave Tranmere Rovers. What does he want - Utopia?
  13. Agreed - but to have a bit of perspective requires taking the long view and waiting to see how things are going after four or five games. Part of that perspective requires acknowledging that we're never going to know much of the inside information that governs the way key personnel at the club operate. Despite the ITK attitude of many on here, we are really just spectators. Nonetheless, we have a vociferous minority on here who prefer knee-jerk reactions after every game. They pretend to understand what's happening behind the scenes; they speculate wildly about attitudes and motivations; they natter on endlessly about things they are in no real position to judge. But there you are - plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose.
  14. "... buy 7 or 8 players, expect 3 to work out and dump the rest". The signings that Pardew has made since being with us have been nothing like that. Nearly all his signings have improved the squad. Most of them have gone straight into the first team. The strategy you describe seemed to be the m.o. during the time of Strachan, Burley and Redknapp. No longer the case.
  15. Nope. This should be a win for us.
  16. Saints looking very good! Particularly impressed with Harding and Dickson on the left.
  17. What is this, now: Round 3? ... Round Four? Someone is a little obsessed.
  18. "Southampton are reported to have bid around £500,000 for Reading winger Michail Antonio, who spent most of last season on loan at St Mary's. The Saints are also in talks with Wycombe Wanderers over England Under-19 international Matt Phillips, a player we already reported as attracting attention."
  19. FYI: You know that a "fact" that is introduced in capital letters as a FACT is not actually a fact - it is a truthiness. A real fact is, in fact, true. It is so true that it is able to stand alone in its lower case. True. HTH
  20. Sounds like Donald Rumsfeld: "I don't know what the facts are but somebody's certainly going to sit down with him and find out what he knows that they may not know, and make sure he knows what they know that he may not know." And another gem of his: "There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know."
  21. That is Buzz Aldrin coming down the steps - photographed by Armstrong. The picture of Armstrong stepping off the LEM was photographed by a TV camera attached to the LEM.
  22. When the police deal with violent, anti-social types in out-of-control footy crowds, they're the typically over-the-top "old bill", who should be doing something better with their time - like dealing with "real" criminals. When the police violate the civil rights of peaceful protestors, including physical assault, they're just doing their job. "You wouldn't get into trouble if you weren't hanging around a protesting crowd", etc., etc.
  23. A common half-time ritual for me when the Saints are playing! Mmmm - roll on the new season!
  24. Yes, they're tasty, but they leave your fingers rather messy!
  25. You can rent Southampton? Wow!
