Pretty much spot on. It’s been an awful window so far.

As it stands with the current squad, we’ll go down comfortably in 20th. Major reinforcements needed before the end of the month.

Incredible really isn’t it. We need to pull our finger out.

Interesting that in 2015, UKIP received 3.8m votes. Fast forward 9 years, and Reform received 4m. UKIP came second in 120 constituencies that year, while Reform came second in 98 constituencies yesterday. 44.1% in Clacton voted UKIP, whilst 46.2% voted Reform, meaning Farage factor added just over 1% compared to 2015. I’m interested to see what happens to the right going forward. Are these levels their peak? The Tories really are stuck between a rock and a hard place with how to play the Reform factor now.

We’ve already held a referendum on Brexit and we need to uphold the vote of the British people because we can’t possibly hold another referendum despite views possibly changing blah blah blah. Of course, this opinion will be the complete opposite from Reform voters for PR, who will scream for it despite us already having a referendum on it.

They didn’t need it to be deep in the FPTP system. It doesn’t matter if a majority was 10,000 or 15,000, and so put their resources to the right places. For once, they’ve got it tactically correct and played a blinder.

Liz Truss is such a disgrace.

What a glorious night. Keegan and Rees Mogg losing are my personal favourites - both utter pricks. Reform going from 13 seats in the exit poll to just 4 is also lols. Custice was clearly having a laugh with them

An absolute pasting, there’s no other way to dress it up. And so richly deserved.

It will be Netherlands unless Georgia (very unlikely) or Czech Republic win tomorrow, according to the tele. Here’s hoping

What a dour group. 1 win and every other game a draw 😂 Denmark finished above Slovenia on FIFA ranking FFS! The Dutch will come at us which may suit us a bit more but my god we are going to need to improve. The draw has opened up for us but it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if we’re out by Sunday night.

Best game of the tournament so far. This is the football I remember from yesteryear before ‘Pep’ ruined it with all his mundane shite.

Awfully sad news. RIP Elijah.

FA Cup Final on the 17th.

We’ll be the last ever visitors to Goodison.

Lallana has been signed for some time, not sure why the delay in announcing it.

I’m in the same constituency and couldn’t agree more. Tories could commit to killing all first borns and the stupid old duffers round here would still gleefully elect Julian Lewis. That swing would be absolutely mental.

That defence is pretty woeful. Lewis Dunk FFS. We have all the attacking talent in the world, but we win absolutely nothing with that defence.

My ST renewal in Block 37 has actually gone from £499 last season to £479 this season. No complaints!

I think S-Clarke provides the best post match assessments. Don’t think I’ve disagreed with any of them in about 10 years. When you see a long post from some members you just keep scrolling, but I always stop to have a read of his.

It really will be us or Bournemouth only for him at this level now as he wants to stay in this area. I believe they still have the main Highcliffe family home and he’s no intention of living elsewhere again. This clearly has legs.

I agree with this. We’re aren’t exactly renowned countrywide for our noise levels but they’d have been up there with anyone in the last couple of weeks. As a fanbase we are chronically underestimated in terms of numbers and if it continues, noise levels too. Difference is we don’t need constant validation like those to the East, so we haven’t built any kind of reputation through our own self-gratification. Pompey suffer with chronic small man syndrome whereas we are more confident in our own skin.

If Lallana comes back does it mean we’ll have the V Man leaking team news again?!

Probably the best 8 days I have had supporting Saints. Days like yesterday are what it’s all about. I won’t lie that I had a tear in my eye when Stephens lifted that trophy above his head. Combined with THAT wba home game, the best atmosphere St Marys has ever had, and you can’t argue that we the fans haven’t stepped up. Yesterday, the players and Martin stepped up. I’ve been so critical of the latter, but he gave me one of the best days of my life yesterday and I’ll always be thankful to him for that.
