Sekou Mara. If you look closely it's written in the tweet that has been posted.

How are you with "rock bottom"?

A fig roll?

Anyone got any more biscuit puns while we're waiting for an announcement? I was trying to force "boring" out of bourbon but couldn't quite make it work

Reports of them going after Ronaldo and Neymar though. New owner may be more interested in spaffing money on Galacticos than bringing through youngsters

Came here hopeful of some transfer news, but the next best thing is biscuit puns. I'd go a long wafer a decent biscuit pun.

"He started the season like a house on fire" Wot?

Bet he knows a thing or two about decent tomato sauce Ahhh - just spotted that @Pilchardsbeat me to this particular dad joke on the main transfers thread!

You mean "slams shut"?

I clearly remember a full kneeslide across the living room, screaming with joy at a refreshed ceefax page when Tahar El Khalej scored a late equaliser against Charlton.

Immense again today. Starting to look like the FF of 2014-16

When one transfer window thread just isn't enough!

Truth is, there is very, very little to say about Southampton's!!

"The 36-year-old resembles a Jack Sparrow lookalike with his long curly hair, unique goatee-style beard" "(He) is almost unrecognisable from his time as a Premier League striker." He looks exactly the bloody same!!

Terrific assist from Long

It's like being stuck in a lift for 90 minutes with the thickest kid at school

Was just about to say the same. Who is this fuckwit?

Mine too. He was superb

Anyone know how much the upturn in form is linked to Smallbone's return to fitness?

I was at a BBQ in the summer and there's this Villa fan absolutely full of it saying what a massive club they are going to become. How it was "obvious" that they were going to keep Grealish & how they were "definitely" going to get JWP because he was bound to want to join a massive club like Villa. Please Saints, smash 'em tonight so I can imagine his cross little face weeping into his sparklers

As well as the northern Irish Steven Davis we had another Steve Davis in the late 80's. And there was Kevin Davies as well as Kelvin Davis Plus Andrew Davies!

Because he left Cornet unmarked for their first goal or because he fired wide from 2 yards when he had an open goal?

Because a West Ham side that finished 6th last season and started brightly this season, scoring 10 goals in their 3 matches prior to the Saints game, (including smashing Leicester 4-1) would seem a tougher proposition than a post-Nuno Wolves that had lost 4 of their first 5 league games. Because Leeds have struggled so far this season, have a bunch of injuries and were missing 3 of their key players in Phillips, Raphinha & Bamford. Do we 'make up' our opinions? I guess we do in a way. I'm just taking a positive view on our season so far and looking on the bright side. If you'd prefer not to, or look at it in different way, then no worries, I'm certainly not going to argue with you about it.

Amen. Not trying to be "scientific" (not talking about anything like XG or any of that sort of stuff!) Just thinking what most 'reasonable' Saints fans might(?) have expected from each game

Yep - agree with all of this too. I wasn't clear that meant that the Wolves result was a stinker, rather than the performance.
