Royal Mail. What has happened to a once great British institution ? I posted a birthday card to my sister, second class post, on the 6th September for her birthday on the 10th. It arrived on September 19th, after a colossal journey of 10 miles from Landford post office to Ringwood. Useless, incompetent and mis-managed beyond belief.

Smash the skates and this will be long forgotten. One of those games where we should have won, didn’t take our chances, and paid the price. It happens.

Come on Saints - 2-1 win incoming 🤞🤞

There is still another international break from 9th to 17th November, so not sure this is ‘saving’ an international break? I definitely don’t remember having 3 breaks before Christmas. Boring as….

Great result saints 🥅⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️ I’ve now missed Swansea and Bristol being smashed, as I’m in St Lucia on holiday. Maybe I should just stay here and guarantee Saints win every game..😁

This is exactly the issue. Mubama is clearly not a big ‘target man’ in the Larin style. He is a forward who wants to run into space onto through balls (as per his goal v Stoke). He has pace, and can finish if he gets a decent chance. Tonda needs to adapt the way the team play to suit his playing style. Azaz and Scienza are more than capable of threading through balls into him through the defence. We shouldn’t be writing the young man off just yet, play to his strengths and you never know, he might just be decent. Punting long balls up the pitch to him with his back to goal is never going to work, so no point in trying it. If we wanted another Stewart/ Larin style player we should have signed one. Clearly Spors didn’t, so signed Mubama. Not what I think we needed but I’m not the sporting director and he is! * as a footnote, I don’t really understand why we loaned Archer out as we have no real back up striker if Larin or Mubama get injured.

Their big lump who came in up front.

It is Tonda’s weird going to 5 at the back by bringing on a 3rd CB that he does thinking it’ll shore the defence up. It doesn’t work, never does work, and he should know by now it doesn’t work. If you want to tighten up bring an extra defensive midfielder on instead. Bragg on instead of Edozie, make it difficult for the opposition to get space. Very poor in game choices by Tonda today.

Surely he’ll be putting the cones away as back up back up, our back up puts them out 😉. God forbid Peretz gets injured and we have to play Long in goal for any length of time 🫣

I think you are being unfair on Ramsdale here. Saints wanted him off the wage bill, so were desperate to move him anywhere. His performances were very decent for us in the top flight - particularly games at home to Brighton and Villa spring to mind as he prevented a mauling rather than a 4-0 and 3-0 defeat. Let’s not re-write history and make out Ramsdale was a bad egg - we all knew he would leave if we went down as we could never afford his wages in the championship. He was a decent keeper for us, certainly doesn’t deserve pelters from fans.

What a performance Saints. Speed of movement, getting forward quickly, off the ball running - night and day better than previous 4 games 👏👏👏

Well done Tom Fellows - finally you’ve got one ⚽️

I’m not sure that was on target without Matsuki’s touch. OG?

Hopefully I’m wrong, but I can see Millwall overpowering us with their physicality and getting a 2-1 win.

Boro score but miles offside. Goal obviously given
