Whitey Grandad

As a former full back I see horror defending every game. Of course, Martin takes most of the responsibility for that and so far I haven’t seen much improvement under Duric. Not having a settled team doesn’t help either. Every game I see players getting in each other’s way or both going for the same ball.

We now have Downes and THB on our books and a large lump of money must have gone on them.

Unfortunately they’re not good enough to keep possession either. All three goals on Saturday plus some dangerous chances came form fast incisive runs through our defence. Having more possession wouldn’t have stopped those but it would have stultified our attack.

Pillocks

Keep possession, or defend better? And welcome back 😉

Please don’t tell me that this is another Brexit Benefit.

Or….. The clues are so ambiguous that they cover every possible target. And, please give some forewarning when this “pubic” confirmation is going to happen 😁

Here’s a question: Would you rather have had another season in the Championship or this?

Those poor people. What did they do to deserve this?

Of course we do. How many records do we hold, if any?

He scored against them back in 2022.

Too loyal to himself.

Was it loyalty or the fact that they’re under contract?

Eleven ‘good’ players don’t necessarily make a good team.

Don’t you trust the Circle of Trust?

Thanks for your message of support. I have lived here for nearly 45 years and have seen many changes in that time. I had a couple of spells as President of our local Chamber of Commerce and it was a constant theme of local independents being driven out of business by the larger enterprises. Supermarkets are not content with 95% of the business, they want it all.

I much prefer watching us now and I feel that we are creating more goal scoring chances but defensively we are wide open. The way that Tonali just sprinted right through our team on Saturday was pitiful. Did not playing with a standard back four have anything to do with it?

Promotion next season or not I would much rather watch a more aggressive front foot style than tactical walking football. That’s academic really since we are unlikely to renew our season tickets. We will probably just get memberships and cherry pick our attendances.

You’re apathetic you are. And you don’t even care about it.

When you consider that I live in Chandlers Ford which is effectively a suburb of Southampton we have a very poor selection of local shops. My 18 year old granddaughter has now been diagnosed as anorexic. She doesn’t eat properly and it all started a few years ago when she had a serious abdominal condition that required emergency surgery. She has never properly recovered from that but now that her condition has been elevated we are now seeing better support.

Someone once told me that a surgeon will cut you open and a doctor will fill you full of pills. It’s what they know and do.

You have a local baker? Wow! I dream of real crusty bread.

Both could be possible. A lab leak that spread to a local market perhaps? I don’t believe in coincidences. An outbreak of a new type of disease in an area close to a laboratory specialising in obscure viruses?

He’s still learning about his players although why Smallbone got more than a few minutes at the end of a game baffles me. We are nowhere near having a settled team. They all play like they’re strangers.

Being consecutive is not really relevant. It’s the goal number that matters.
