Look at the pictures taken by the cameras they cannot lie. The truth is in what you see, not what you read.

Usual Dalek over-reaction. There are some truly awful sides in the Premier League this season so we wont go down. But we have definitely gone backwards since last season and we look like a team without much confidence up front. I was at the game today, and it was one that we could well have got a point from - if anyone could be bothered to have a shot. Palace sat back in the second half, but we only really tested Hennessey once, and that was right at the end when Long should have scored. Too many touches, especially from Mane. If Arsenal make a silly offer for Wanyama, then we should take it [ he looked well off the pace. And Pelle and Long together simply doesn't work - they get in each others way. On the plus side, Gazzaniga actually looked a decent keeper today. He made a number of good stops, and his distribution was generally OK. Which does make you wonder why Kelvin played against Leicester. Thought Davis had a good game, and was surprised when he was subbed. And putting the TV gantry under the stand roof to block everyone's view is daft

Anyone planning on watching it? Apparently it's the first year they're showing both games on the TV.

Can't imagine that I would ever approve of a transfer to Spurs, but getting rid of Steve Bennett is excellent news. Maybe we could get someone who could actually do the job without irritating everyone
-
please tell me that they are getting rid of that muppet who introduces the half time relay. He really is an embarrassment

Would have thought that Cortese was ideal for Leeds. The current owner is banned from being a director of a football club for avowing tax on an imported yacht, the new manager is the odious Steve Evans, who was successfully prosecuted for tax evasion when at Boston. Add to that the history surrounding Don Revie and the culture of gamesmanship that he left. What could possibly go wrong

University Project Ticket Pricing Questionnaire

Link doesn't work -
Its a bit of a gamble to be honest. It will only be worth it if we get to a cup semi-final or final. In which case Members will have priority over non-members. Otherwise it's not great value Had one in the Dell days. Used to fax in my ticket requests a couple of days before tickets went on sale. Worked every time. Those were the days

Post-Match Reaction: SAINTS 2-0 Bournemouth
kwsaint replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
I thought that I was watching the Leicester game again. Fortunately Bournemouth don't have a Jamie Vardy. Why do we drop off in the second half? The first half was men against boys. Don't think that Wanyama missing the Sunderland game is a big deal. He wasn't really in the game much after the booking. It felt like one of those cup games against lower league teams, when they huff and puff a bit but never really threaten. Forget the hype about this being a derby. The Spurs game last year had more feeling, let alone any of the recent games against Pompey. Todays game was just for fun. -
Yes. I was at that game. Channon equalised late on direct from a corner.
-
The 6-1 last season was almost entirely down to Sherwood tactics. Pressing a high line with Mane and Long on the pitch. Mental.
-
Stek has a back injury. Hope he is back next week. All of the starting outfield players have been on international duty this week. Mane was knackered by 60 mins. KD has been fantastic for us, but I really don't want to see him again. His distribution was terrible and has cost us 2 points. Must get backup in January Leicesters team spirit was excellent. Vardy is not the most gifted of players, but he just never gives up. 2-2 was just about right on the performance, even though it feels like a loss
-
KD has been incredibly loyal to Saints, but I really hope today is his last ever game. The second half when Leicester came at us was just embarrassing. His distribution and inability to get distance on his kicks meant that the ball just kept coming back. Gazzaniga would have been better today. He doesn't stop anything but at least he has younger legs and can kick a ball further. We have to get cover in January. We only have one premier league level keeper, and he currently has a back injury. And is on loan to us. I cant see Forster playing much if at all this season.
-
I think that it is more about pairings, than about individuals. Lovren and Fonte were superb together, but Lovren has struggled at Liverpool. Klaus and Killer were excellent. Klaus and Jacobsen was just embarrassing. It's early days, but it looks like van Dijk and Fonte could be as good as Klaus and Killer. I am old enough to remember Jim Steele. My recollection was that on his day he was better than anyone - he certainly was in the Cup Final. But he wasn't always that consistent.

According to one of my Italian work colleagues, Pelle was junior tango champion in Italy, and is into Latin-American dancing. Checked online and appears to be true. May end up seeing him on Strictly come Dancing one day. Strange but true.

I look out for the results of teams that work colleagues support for the Monday morning post mortem. At present I am looking out for Arsenal, Celtic, Partick Thistle and QPR results. The Partick supporter is particularly glum at present.

yeah i was there january to august this year. lived in a place called kisoro about 9.5 hours on a coach to kampala. for some reason, they played westlife-esque bands on the PA for the entire journey. i think entry was 20,000 shillings or about £4

Do you ever go to the Worthies Sports and Social club?
-
yeah same for me. lived there for 6 months. managed to see them play against the Gambia in a friendly which ended up 1 all. Apart from that, Cambridge United because of university.
-
I can never get them to work for some reason. Might just be me mind.

1. Sell tickets for the half-time relay and have the football match as the pre/post relay entertainment. 2. Install Dyson Airblades in the toilet as per below: 3. Move the away fans to the middle of the chapel stand, remove the segregation and not tell anyone for one game just to see what would happen. 4. Shoot anyone who takes a selfie with a bolt action shotgun. 5. Build a museum about the history of the club (as per an early post).
