Whitey Grandad

I don’t find it embarrassing to be honest but very disappointing.

I think we’ll leak more goals than that. We’re currently on course for over 70 against and to achieve (!) -50 we’d need to score 20 but I don’t think you’ll be far out.

Isn’t that why contracts are rarely paid up in full?

So they’ll spend money on players but won’t spend money on getting rid of the root cause.

“…there’s nothing so becomes a man as modest stillness and humility…”

Or as new manager of Saints 😳

Sorry to piss on your bonfire 😜

Pedant alert! One team has to kick off one of the halves. Other than that I don’t see a problem.

Is that with or without Martin?

And we will be cold.

The quality of the players is irrelevant. No matter how good they were he would turn them into walking zombies with no attacking intentions.

My situation was very similar to yours. Last summer my wife had duodenal cancer and although there was a lot of talk about a possible operation the initial procedures had caused a blood clot that eventually caused her intestines to break down. After ten days in Winchester Royal Hants I brought her home. She knew her days were numbered but despite two more stays in Southampton General eventually she had had enough and decided to come home and spend her last few days in familiar surroundings and with our two children and seven grandchildren able to call in and see her. The day I brought her home was our 53rd wedding anniversary. We had been together from the age of sixteen, four years before we were married. She spent her last three weeks in our bed and kept apologising for what she was putting us through. Her sedation was gradually increased until by the last week she was barely aware of anything but before that she kept saying to me “I want to go”. I have no doubt that given the option of being assisted she would have taken it because she didn’t want to cause us any bother. Things got messy but she was my wonderful wife and I had signed up for the duration and I was privileged to have spent my life with her and I was privileged to have spent our last days looking after her. She suggested that she should go to a hospice like her sister had twenty years before but I didn’t want to ship her off somewhere to die without her family being with her. One hundred days after leaving Winchester she slipped away quietly in her own bed on a Sunday morning. I still miss her terribly. Every day is a torment. Was I selfish to have kept her here? My children say that I did the right thing.

And it stinks of coffee. 😉

The truth hurts.

Can he play in goal?

Out of interest, how many of those 87 goals were at St. Mary's? I missed a lot of games due to a long term domestic illness so perhaps I'm not the one to comment. The last game I attended before my enforced break was the loss to Leicester.

"Don't bite the hand that feeds you"

Much quicker than VAR

The game ended 0-2 Ah, I see now. I was referring to Wolves.

They are not being organised to the best of their abilities. A bad manager blames his tools, not the way he handles them. (obvious comments under here please)

This ridiculous style of play is also a large part of the problem. Get rid of that and there won’t be another 10 - 15 crap results.

Pax Romana? Pax Brittanica?

Yet they beat us comfortably. They may end up being relegated but it will be with us beneath them in the table.

Just keeping him away from the team would be an improvement.
