  1. New keeper looking impressive. Saints tidy but as expected little up front so far.
  2. Another headed goal from a first time cross from the right. That's the third following JWP's two against Spurs. Surely something that's been planned and worked up on the training ground. Excellent crosses and three tremendous headed goals. The first touch cross must give the defenders just a fraction less time to organise and provide an element of surprise.
  3. Does it really matter whether we are regarded as a 'big' club? I'd prefer to watch the Saints in a full stadium every week rather than one that is only three quarters full half the time. Even now there are often plenty of empty seats evident.
  4. Semmens was simply laying out the way the club will be run over the next few years. I am hugely encouraged by his proposed approach for a club such as ours which is unable to compete financially with the big spenders. We appear to have good people in post, a plan, realistic aspirations and the possibility of watching some exciting young players playing entertaining football. Although he didn't say it I have no doubt he also believes that this model gives the greatest opportunity for continued team progression and potential silverware.
  5. Received from my Leicester supporting friend .... "Vestergard and Bertrand - I hear Southampton are starting a new venture selling snow to Eskimos🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪 how did we fall for that?"
  6. Listened to Dave Merrington's first half commentary and thought we were doing pretty well in a hard fought, well balanced game. Come on here and apparently we're not! Prediction? 2-1 Saints.
  7. A good read on Kindle. Cortese is definitely not Frannie's best mate. An all round good bloke with a body as hard as nails and a mind of steel.
  8. Thanks Minsk. Used to really enjoy this in the past. Gives a great idea of how the season is progressing.
  9. Franny is one of my heroes. But I'm stuck abroad under Covid lockdown. An ideal time to read his autobiography. Is his book available online at all?
  10. Sometimes these match threads include the date of the match and the UK start time included in the title. I find this really useful. Could it be included routinely?
  11. Last year I predicted 7th and halfway through the season that was looking on the pessimistic side. But then injuries and some poor decisions wrecked confidence which is critical and easily lost. We never recovered. But, apart from losing Ings the team is much the same as that first half season, with most of the squad available and looking very fit. If we can replace Ings with someone half decent I think we'll be a comfortable 14th/15th. If not it's going to be a long, hard season. I'm going for 14th. Looking forward to Salisu, Adams, Tella, Perraud and Livramento having great seasons.
  12. Kudos to him. It can't be easy to pull yourself out of that sort of situation.
  13. I'm going for a bold 7th.
  14. Both circle and star show for me on mobile phone with Android Chrome.
  15. Wow. We're fun to watch again after several years of back passing. Well done boys, every one.
  16. I've just bought a 24 hour NowTV pass for £9.99 which I hope will allow me to watch a legal stream.
  17. Does anyone know how I can definitely watch the Norwich game from abroad - specifically Grenada in the Caribbean? I've not found it easy to watch today's games and I don't want to be scrabbling around at 6pm on Friday trying to find a stream. I'll pay if required and would prefer not to use a dodgy stream. Android phone or iPad. Thanks.
  18. Thanks. Anyway now managed to get tickets in the newly released block. COYR.
  19. Please PM me in the unlikely event you know of two spare tickets available. Thanks John
  20. PM sent.
  21. Ah. I see I am too late and it is sold out!
  22. Is there a singing block for Wolves yet? Just about to book my tickets.
  23. As far as I can tell he's just completed the final marathon!
