Golac's Iron Gonads

Are we currently the most boring team to watch for the neutral (and fan) in this league?

Brickhill sounds like a rough part of London.

I hope those going and the Palace fans give Hodgson the welcome he deserves on his triumphant return to English football after leading the national team to a 2-1 defeat against Iceland which wasn't even his most serious crime* *Wilshere not only being named in the squad but actually getting on the pitch against Iceland

Forget it people. We are going down and this game will be one that clouds the sky above even the most optimistic Saints fans. My advice (feel free to offer yours to me) 1: Get money on Saints to be relegated before this game currently around 25/1 2: Don't waste anymore time watching this mess. During those 6 hours I could have read The Great Gatsby and still had time left for Brave New World or watched the entire first season of Rick and Morty and had time to listen to every Beatles album released after 1965. 3: Take up another sport. Archery is fantastic or the american football season has just started. Anyway 1-0 Palace (Benteke 68') Doesn't matter who starts.

Shake it Les, shake it! In and out, turn around. Get your whole self in! You're doing the Okey Dokey.

Being a sad Doctor Who fan I can tell you the BBC wiped a lot of video up until the mid 70s. The stuff that exists in black and white was usually returned from overseas sales from countries that didn't yet have colour and we're lucky to have that still exist.

We do not. We have the same starting 11 as finished last season so woefully. With the possible addition of a CB and DM who have never played in the U.K. and are very much an unknown quantity. Putting a lot of pressure on Lemina and Hoedt.

Won some money on that. Cheers Saints! Hope these young players come good in the next 10 games. We're scrapping to stay up this year.

I'd buy him a pint if I ever met him.

Fantastic to see this sort post before our season has even begun. How many times last season did I read 'We look like the only team capable of scoring' minutes before conceding a goal.

I haven't watched a boxing match for nearly 20 years. I seem to recall the pundits at least understood their sport. But you could be right. I think I should be aiming my ire mainly at British sport coverage rather than specific sports.

I saw something online about how Michael Owen has just reviewed the 10 films he has watched in his life and I tried to think of another sport that would employ a man who is quite clearly an utter moron. I couldn't think of one.

It's such a contrast when you hear american football pundits. Maybe one day we'll have such erudite and coherent pundits.

1-1 and I'm putting my money where my mouth is.

Without further transfers in I'll be a bit worried, we've added no one to the first team that finished last season so dismally. And it finished really dismally, sorry to remind everyone. A lot hinges on keeping VVD as this allows the midfield a bit more freedom to venture forward. Yes, I know it'll be Boufal's and Hojbjerg and Redmond's second season and they should be better, I bloody hope so.

I wish they had all the multi angle cameras back then. Many of those goals, especially at the Dell, I've only seen from one viewpoint unless I was there which fortunately I was for a few. Would love to see behind the goal views, close ups but alas 'twas a different time.

The wheels have come off the dinghy

yep, not getting forward much though

Flanagan looks a beefy fella, not sure about his football but a big lad.

Can't dislike the fella and 12 years after our relegation he's still doing a job in the top division. It still laugh at his answer to, I'm half-remembering it, 'If you weren't a footballer what would you be?' 'A 27 year old virgin'

by tattoos I mean biceps and hair and eyebrows. if he gets any tats then it's a sure sign he's off to Liverpool

Quite a few sites linking Tadic to Liverpool for around £12 million and I'd be very happy to see him go. Though he can have an occasional barnstorming game I don't like the cut of his jib. He's the sort of player I begrudgingly accepted we'd sign when we came back up to the Prem. A sulky, petulant, skillful, diving, pouting, roll around on the ground, imaginary card waving East European that can't score a penalty consistently. Would be happy to see him go and young Sims given more run outs. I'd offer to drive Tadic up to Liverpool myself, but I couldn't stand being in a car with him as he seems the sort of bloke that would demand to play his awful taste in music but spend the entire journey staring into his phone or at the reflection of his tattoos in the wing mirror. Dusan: збогом Ливерпул је на тај начин.

I'm not a bed wetter by any stretch and found talk of us being drawn into the relegation battle this season ridiculous. However, if we again sell 2 or 3 of our best players (VVD, Bertrand, Cedric, Romeu) this summer and replace them with similar standard replacements we found last summer (Boufal, Højbjerg, Redmond) we could well be following Sunderland into the Championship. Granted Redmond hasn't been terrible but he has blown hot and cold and is no Mane by any stretch.
