By the time of the election their “plan” won’t differ greatly from the trajectory we’re on. In fact it wouldn’t surprise me if come that time Starmer will do what Blair did & promise to stick to Tory public spending plans. Anything else leaves them fighting Sunak on his home turf, risky strategy.

Entirely possible, free from the dead hand of Ralph.

What a load of old pony. They didn’t want to sell the benefits of The Euro, Schengen or ever closer union to the people because of some right wing backlash, they didn’t do it because they knew there was no fucking chance the Great British public would accept them. Forget about 48/52 it would have been a landslide had the remain proposal contained joining the euro. You’re deluded if you think it’s just right wingers holding back full integration. There’s not a hope in hell we’ll give up £, you’ve more chance of going to the moon in a shoe box.

What a horrendous fucking pointless day. I felt like John Candy in Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Fucking replacement bus’ left right and centre, black cab & Ubers. Horrible waste of drinking time, (the journey, not the match……although on second thoughts). As for the game, they were a lot better than us first half, and we were slightly the better side second. Again, we’re too slow moving the ball, too obsessed with possession meaning sideways, backwards, safe passes over and over. Our whole approached summed up by the captain. Soft, safe, fucking possession for the sake of it. Horrifically boring side. Che Adams excellent until it comes to finishing, but if he could finish, he’d have fucked off by now. Lyanco’s error cost us a goal, but other than that did well against decent tricky players. Our crossing was woeful, absolutely terrible. Got in decent positions down the sides, but the final ball is poor. And why do we persist in fanning around at the back, Che can hold the ball up, get it up to him and play off him. He’ll get it down, then we can play from there. I’m sick to death of watching Prowse, Salisu & Diallio give sloppy passes to them in our fucking half. Talking of Salisu, he needs to shape up imo, Caletta carr looks the part to me, and ABK is probably our best centre half, so he could find himself Sat on the bench if he doesn’t cut out the sloppy shit.

He does every single time we’re shit (which is most weeks). Next time we win away and he comes over to do that noddy jazz hands shite, he should be told to fuck off. However, our nods will lap it up. If you’re going to skulk away without acknowledging the fans when we’re shit, then don’t give it the Klopp impression when we actually win. He’s a fucking fraud.

The last man standing from the birth of Rock and Roll has left the building. Crazy, dangerous and extremely talented, he was a one off. Rip Jerry….

Which is why it was so important that Boris got us out. The debate now is not between being “In” as was, or out. But bring “In” with the euro, Schengen, no rebate & ever closer union,or out. As a “rules based” organisation, it’s probably best to assume the previous deal is gone forever. Perhaps people like John Major, William Hague, Cameron & other senior remainers should have stopped pretending they were Euro sceptical for career enhancement and sold the project to the British people. If I was in your side they’re the ones I’d blame, not thick voters or Sir Nigel……

There is a striking difference between the way Remainers behave when we’re outside the EU to how Leavers reacted when the roles were reversed. They set up parties & contested elections, they persuaded people of their argument, they worked all hours under the sun to achieve their goal. What do remainers do, cry on twitter? Nigel stood in election after election, kept going and persevered, what did “Change UK” do? Threw the towel in after 1 go. Soubry could have been remains Nigel, instead she fucked off to post some gin soaked twitter posts. You’ve got a rabid remainer in charge of the Labour Party but he’s too frightened to make the case for rejoining, you’ve got remainers constantly banging on about the “disaster” of Brexit but all they want to do is whinge on the sidelines. Thank god we had Nigel and others on our side, people of action who were prepared to get their hands dirty, put the hours in and fight for what they believed in. These entitled chumps seem to think they don’t need to, and we’ll magically rejoin without breaking sweat.

Robert Peston Clinton Morrison Steve Coogan Anyone who has anything to do with the “one show”.

Yeah, I agree. It was all the lads in my local were talking about yesterday, The Garth Crooks Saints Web thread. It’s really going to hurt his nationwide profile if the mods lock it.

I wonder why?
-
Yes, far better.

Correct. When VAR was first used the handball rule was amended so that any handball, intentional or not, which resulted in a goal would be chalked off. Now you can accidentally handle the ball and assist a goal. The goalscorer can’t, but anyone else can.

Just like our fans would be if those decisions went against us

The members have taken a lot of flak lately, but it’s not a one way street. Tory Mp’s are notorious for voting tactically and not voting for the best candidate. They vote for the best placed candidate to beat their hated candidate, they vote for career enhancement and for the favourite to stay in their good books. It’s gone on for years. The great lady had a cabinet full of “big beasts” but little Johnie major won because he wasn’t Hestletine or another suitable candidate, he was the least disliked candidate. Same with William Hague he won because he wasn’t Ken Clarke, IDS because he wasn’t Portillo. Their system was put in place to ensure a Jeremy Corbyn situation didn’t arise, where a fringe candidate wins via the members. But this only works if the MP’s send two people capable of doing the job to the members. They sent liz Truss because they wanted to stop Sunak. They knew her better than anyone, knew her limitations, yet gave her to the members. Yet now these people who play stupid political games, are the “grown ups” and the members are the ones not trusted to cast their vote. “You don’t like the result, change the electorate “ is hardly democratic values. Until the Leader of the party ceases to be PM (maybe they have a leader of party & a Westminster leader like the SNP do) the members should get a vote. They are the ones delivering leaflets, working for free to get the MPs elected. More light should be shone on the shenanigans and promises made during the Westminster rounds than blaming the members. No wonder hardly anyone is a member of a political party, both big parties treat them like mugs.

Away fans in home ends has gone on for years, the difference nowadays seems to be more twats wearing colours and celebrating goals. I don’t believe you’ll ever stamp it out through pricing or ticketing policy, you need stewards to do their job and the planks to stop making it so fucking obvious. I know a West Ham supporter who got tickets in the home end at Bournemouth . He turned up really early dressed in a suit, wandered down to the front & hopped over the fence. He then causally walked round the outside of the pitch to the away end and jumped over the barrier. Nobody said a word and one of the ground staff even said hello to him.

Absolutely hilarious 😆😂😂

He’s been very good the last 2 games. Tactically spot on and a bit of fight from the players. Great decision to play Lyanco at full back, and got his subs right again. Let’s hope he doesn’t go all “Ralph” and start dicking around next week.

Southampton 1-1 Arsenal - Match Thread
Lord Duckhunter replied to Saint Matty 76's topic in The Saints
Another proper performance. Tough to beat, quick to get stuck in and horrible to play against. I wouldn’t want Lyanco as a son-in-law, whilst Perraud & Ćaleta-Car are also tough buggers that get in oppositions faces. Great to see. Flexibility from Ralph as well, spot on again for the second time this week. Elyounoussi & the keeper had their best games for the club, but Lyanco my Player without a womb of the match. Set the tone for the performance, got the fans up for it, but also showed excellent defensive qualities and was out of position.- 886 replies

Exactly. Look at Harry Kane. I’m not saying he’ll be anywhere near that standard, but writing him off already is fuckwittery of the highest order. If he does well on loan, he deserves a shot back with us. It’s not like we’re pulling up trees without him.
