Sheaf Saint

Not yet. He's getting in the right positions and the goals will come eventually. Taking him off having not scored will dent his confidence further. Right now I would swap Ely for Stu.

Arma off target again, but it came to him so quickly I can let him off.

Palace are 1-0 up at Man City and Laporte has been sent off!

Same as against Leeds isn't it. With the chances we've created we should be out of sight by now. The irony is the one we scored from was probably the hardest of the lot. We just keep on missing so many easy chances, it's infuriating. Unlike Leeds, Watford look like they have a goal in them. So we'll need to improve our finishing in the second half if we want these 3 points. I really don't want the taters to be ramming the old "dropped points from winning positions" stat down our throats again at 4.45.

It tells me that despite us being by far the better team so far and creating more chances, we can't get them on target. Armstrong proving the point there.

We already are. Watford are coming back into it now and we didn't score enough when we were well on top.

The fact that Watford have had more shots on target than us so far speaks volumes.

Oh Che. You scored the difficult chance and fluff that one.

Right, I'm gonna put my neck on the line here. Redmond is better at taking corners than JWP. There, I've said it. Oof, that was lucky. Just off the line from KWP.

Masina lucky there. Fully committed to that tackle and if Livra had just lifted the ball over him he'd have been in real trouble.

I was going to post that, but I thought the joke had run its course after the goal he scored against Sheff Utd last season 😉

Oh my days. That's a fine finish. Take a bow son.

He was having to lean back a bit to get his head on it.

This is the only working stream I have found so far... https://myoplay.club/playppv/?sport=soccer

I expect he will come on at some point, as will Diallo.

Ralph was quoted as saying that JWP wouldn't automatically get his place back. Diallo has been playing very well in his absence and didn't deserve to be dropped. Still not convinced by KWP at LB. Macca and Bednarek straight back in after their respective replacements both had great games against Chelsea. At least Walcott isn't starting I suppose.

And despite this, JV and RB have dropped to the bench today. Can't be a good sign.

Not hatred, just objectivity. He looked like he still had something to offer in the first half of last season, but since coming back from injury he's looked poor, and so far this season has looked out of his depth and contributed nothing. He's not the future of this team. A backup player at best now.

Just been to see Dune. I've been excited about this ever since I read that Denis Villeneuve was taking it on a few years ago and it didn't disappoint. Every bit as good as I hoped it would be.

Great memories. Not to take anything away from a terrific performance, but Boro's defending was comically bad for every one of those goals.

This is correct. The water companies all need to submit regular (5-yearly IIRC) water resource management plans (WRMPs) which go hand in hand with the AMPs and need regulatory approval prior to implementation, and yearly reviews. A lot of hard work goes into producing these plans, to make sure that the private capital investment is targeted efficiently, so that the plans can adequately meet the demand/supply forecasts but also so that the water companies can make a decent return on their investment. Also, you may have heard of a scheme called RAPID (Regulators' Alliance for Progressing Infrastructure Development) which is geared towards developing infrastructure to allow resources to be exported across WRZ boundaries and between different companies, and create something resembling a national grid for water supplies. It went out to consultation earlier this year, and surprise surprise, the common theme among water companies' responses was along the lines of "what's in it for us?", so they will be the ones meeting the costs for the new infrastructure.

Does the best catering and radio station count?

It would have been 6 wins if not for Doucoure punching the ball into the net 😡

Oh I absolutely do credit him for what he did with us previously, because those two seasons were among the best I've ever experienced as a Saints fan. It was thanks to his management that we qualified for the Europa League and I was able to go and watch us play at the San Siro, and for that I will be forever grateful. But like Ducky says, right man at the right time, but that ship has sailed now. I cherish the memories but I can't imagine him being anywhere near as successful second time round.

Were it not for him playing in the same era as Ronaldo and Messi, then Gareth Bale might have been around the time Real signed him from Spurs.
