Stud mark of doom

Sorry, the analysis was of where the free kick is from, rather than were the ball ends up - all his successful ones have been on the left hand side of the pitch or dead centre. None from the right hand side yet.

If you slow it down we make an appearance in 1996. Reminds me of an article in the Athletic recently which gave each clubs record premiership transfer adjusted for football revenue growth inflation. Ours was……. Neil Shipperley! Interesting that a few clubs don’t (or hardly) appear at all - Liverpool and Man Utd for example. I’m not sure it’s a list you want to be on.

We used to call him Just Wide Prowse. Well all that practice has certainly paid off - he is superb now. I saw some stats recently and he is miles better if the free kick is to the left of the penalty spot than to the right (in fact he may not have scored on the right hand side) - if it’s in that left area it’s as good as a penalty. (Better than quite a few penalty takers - although not quite an MLT penalty.)

Odd - atmosphere seemed really good in away end. Lots of singling. Great atmosphere all round I thought.

It was a few years ago but I vaguely remember contacting the ticket office and upgrading the ticket for one match when the same happened to me. Pretty sure there’s a light thing the stewards seem to check.

Don’t forget “Dirty Cash (Money Talks)” blaring out at the teams left the field for half time. Very appropriate. incredible work by the half time DJ.

We have until Thursday to reserve season ticket seats - now on sale. Just in case, like me, you didn’t get the email from the club (despite being opted in to all comms).

Done - much higher quality than SFCs surveys too! Reasonable length, no obvious spelling errors, and no stupid questions.

Don’t really hate any team. Dislike most of the big sides with possible exception of City, for proving that success is all about pumping in loads of cash. Would be very funny to see Chelsea return to their 1 trophy every 50 years former status. one side that I couldn’t see mentioned - Wolves. Always do well against us recently and a horrible side to watch - time wasting, feigning injury, super defensive.

Just for the record a) you missed out the words “a hat-trick” b) yes Hoddle - 98, although by then the England squad was extremely strong, and MLT should have been a regular in it for years before that, when he was overlooked in favour of some real dross.

When we next get promoted perhaps we should sing “on the pitch (but not before the game has ended, in case the game isn’t completed and we don’t get promoted)” to help the more intellectually challenged members of our fan base.

Leeds 0 Saints 1 A key game in our history. One of the best goalkeeping performances for saints ever. And what a strike from Sir Ricky.

Dellhurst park was very loud. I could hardly hear my Kazoo; and I lost my Fez after the second goal.

To add insult to injury - got some seats nearby where there were a few in a line but…. even though there are 2 spare seats the last one of our ST group can’t buy it as it would leave an odd seat!!!

My mate (who flagged it to me) got emails about it, but I’ve got nothing - despite being relentlessly spammed to give feedback seemingly every week. sounds like the email process fell over at SFCs end.

Anyone else miss the deadline for securing their season ticket seat for the hammers game? Mine has already been taken grrrr. Pretty sure I didn’t get anything from the club telling me about this! Maybe it was hidden away somewhere.

Sounded like the usual power struggle between a relatively “hands on” director of football and strong minded manager - nothing too extreme but probably not conducive to being the best of friends afterwards. https://theathletic.com/3122701/2022/02/11/rangnick-and-hasenhuttl-a-story-of-football-philosophies-creative-differences-and-mutual-respect/?source=user_shared_article It’s quite a long article - I’ve just copied a small bit below It is understood that the pair would often disagree about the club’s direction of travel in meetings, although these episodes were never played out in front of the players. This has been described as a hindrance to Hasenhuttl, especially as it stopped him from getting his messages across. Away from the waning results, there were disagreements over a contract extension. It is believed RB Leipzig offered Hasenhuttl a new deal during the second season but that he turned it down. The Athletic has been told that his decision to reject the offer coincided with the Austrian holding talks with Bayern Munich over the possibility of becoming their manager.

That was an odd thing for Jenas to say. Ralf often makes quite interesting points in interviews. He is a breath of fresh air compared to some. (Did anyone see the Conte interview post spurs game - he was close to incoherent never mind the standard vacuous word-salads) There was an interesting article in the Athletic pre game about the two Ralf rather acrimonious history. I wonder if that had something to do with Ralf choosing to comment freely on the opposition?

Probably our last season in the championship:-)

Good analogy - got our Christmas pud at F&M for the first time last year. When we got it home we found it was damaged. Very much like the aging Ronaldo. Thumping away win on the cards.

We the fans won’t know but the clubs lawyers 100% should know. The Alderweireld thing seemed a bit of a farce and a one off - didn’t someone get the chop after that?

See the film Moneyball for details

Anyone got any stream suggestions (first matched I've missed in a while) The hockey suggestion above doesn't seem to have any football on is - assume that was a joke?

It’s amazing how quickly JWP has been forgotten

Moussa didn’t do anything of note? Wasn’t that him slipping in Redmond for the goal, with one of the best through balls I’ve seen in many a game?
