Hamilton Saint

Fonte gives away a needless corner.

Do we continue on this thread, or is someone gonna open a match thread?

Probably because of the technical problems they've been having with dialogues between studio and remote locations.

Weird on Saints Player - only getting one half of the dialogues.

Saints Player on already, and it's an away game! Hope they do this every week - or maybe it's just because it's the first game of the season.

You contradict yourself. If this is not news, but an opinion piece, then it requires - according to you - paragraphs in order to "express more complex thoughts in an attractive way." But I disagree, anyway. The writing of both news and opinion is improved by using paragraphs. They improve comprehension and speed up the process.

A perfect example of why paragraphs make prose easier to read. I have written a few times to newspapers who insist on following a policy of 'every sentence is its own paragraph'. Their response is always the same: the "average reader" cannot cope with dense paragraphs (paragraphs with more than one sentence, apparently!). Au contraire, paragraphing helps the writer to keep associated ideas together, and it helps the reader by showing the logical flow of the writing - especially if there are good transitions between those paragraphs.

Sorry for duplication

I suggest you consider the issue of libel. This is not a topic to be bandied about lightly.

Was Richard Thompson there this year? What did you think were the highlights?

A Rainbow in Curved Air by Terry Riley - 1969 Snowflakes Are Dancing by Tomita (synthesizer versions of music by Claude Debussy) - 1974 Switched on Bach by Wendy Carlos (synthesizer versions of music by J.S. Bach) - 1968 And lots of albums by Brian Eno, e.g: Another Green World - 1975 Discreet Music - 1975 Music for Films - 1978 Music for Airports - 1978

This is a classic category mistake. The ad is not news, or information. It's comedy. And very amusing, btw!

Final whistle. Saints win 4-3.

Puncheon seems to have been busily effective since coming on.

4-3. Isgrove's shot deflected to Puncheon, who taps it in.

Ward-Prowse has a good long-range strike (about 30 yards) on target.

10 minutes left.

Mayuka just misses. Corner.

Puncheon quickly gets his first touch of the ball, and attempts a shot on goal.

Puncheon on; Schneiderlin off.

Lallana and Rodriguez off.

Isgrove and Mayuka coming on.

Blackmore: "The game is quite feisty for a friendly".

A let-off for Saints. Sociedad should have scored there from a Griseman (?) header.
