Golac's Iron Gonads

well at least I won't have to bother watching the 2nd half, don't think there's a player in a saints shirt out there that doesn't fully deserve a punch in ****ing face.

COWARDS. DESPICABLE PARASITES.

What a despicable bunch of cowards. From the boardroom to the dross on the pitch. No pride and blown away by one of the poorest teams in the league.

the Black Box, Bob Higgins, and Benali's 'tache all skillfully sculpted by the bloke that did the Ted Bates mark I statue.

Done what City couldn't. Come on Saints! Need a Carillo goal and a Boufal special

well this is a lot more fun to watch. Not great football, but it's not as slow as an Iranian entry in a women's international film festival

I'm not sure I could ever not support Saints. I can see myself being disinterested but I'll always look up the result as the game finished. Mark Hughes being appointed may very well test that resolve to the limit. Certainly wouldn't give the club any of my money in the way of purchasing tickets while he was in charge. I pray it's a stop gap until the season at worst and that it's just paper nonsense at best.

Is that high pitched screaming and shouting I can hear on my feed Pellegrino?

stunning start

Wow. That's a hell of a selection, I can't see how we are even going to get the ball in their box with not one but 3 players unable to pass the ball forwards unless there is simply no other option behind them. Tenner stuck on Newcastle +1 goal. Easy Money.

Matt Le Tissier Steve Moran Mark Wright Peter Shilton

De Bruyne.

Going to need to fight like buggery, but far more winable than going to Man City.

1: Got a nice pre-match huddle going on. 2: Hoedt's beard (not the gay slang kind) is something he takes great pride in. 3: We don't have anyone with particularly ludicrous hair ala Firmino, Pogba.

Wasn't Ward -Prowse playing out on the right wing/right attacking forward? I know he had a header in the box(his second) when a natural attacker/attacking player would have been aware how much time he had and would probably have chested the ball and shot. The fact it was Ward-Prowse who found himself in that position and not Boufal/Redmond/Long tells me we have a defensive minded manager. Played a lone forward yesterday, 5 midfielders and I'd argue only one of whom is comfortable out wide, at home to a good attacking side but one with vulnerable full backs. Defensive.

Rugby is tedious with little skill required for most positions. American football on the other hand is spectacular, harder tackling, too.

Let's turn these f**ks over

You went to the 'pool you went to the 'pool you left us and you won f**k all

Oh come on! I ventured in here hoping to see his luxurious locks in a selection of gorgeous portraits and there's not a single image. Off to google image search it is then. Now where'd I put those tissues I picked up from Starbucks.

Heart warming stuff,it really was. Self abusers.

Keep that line up playing. For the love of God keep playing Boufal and Lemina.

Carillo's touch is shocking. Can't make a success of it as a forward in this league with a touch that poor. I'm hoping he's got something else in his locker or we've throw more money down the toilet.

a player raises and lowers his arm to signify his run up is beginning. It's for timing purposes (getting free of your marker and moving towards the goal)not a secret signal regarding where the ball is going to end up.

we end the game with the team that should have started the game. 15 minutes left

Pellegrino wants to get sacked. It's clear as day now. Never cared about the club, came for the money. Not even a gamble in his career. Fails and he gets a lovely payoff and returns to Spain. Accidentally succeeds and he gets an even bigger contract at a bigger English club. The man not only doesn't give a sheet he's actively trying to get the boot.
