Or Pell who played international football for The Argies & also played for Barca. And of course there maybe some fossils who might remember a certain Burnley centre half named Merrington. That midfield though, Bally, Souness & Hoddle. They’d be in and around the best 11 I’ve ever seen play, even if we weren’t picking from a Saints connection. **** me, once you add Strachan they’d be able to play , kick or run any team off the park.

I was speaking to a Kenyan Hooker at the weekend, she reckons it's Newcastle away first game, at least I think that's what she said, she had her mouth full at the time. Make of that what you will. Love & light Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'll be happy if Glasgows right and it is Man U home. Looking like I'm going to be away that weekend , it's one game I'll be able to use ticket exchange and will sell it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was in Kenya at the weekend on business. If you don't believe me, here's a pic of Mrs Duck taking a dip. It was taken by my secretary. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Don’t know about players winning the league, but I reckon our managers could. **** me, the midfield is some classy unit. Although the keeper looks a bit out of his depth.

Mark Hughes in his prime was better than Ron Davies. Morgan not a patch on Jimmy Case in his prime, I’d also have Mark Wright over either centre half, other than that, pretty decent. Ryan Bertrand doesn’t belong in that company, but LB was the weakest position and the one I struggled with. I went with Mark Dennis, but again, he’s not really in the same class as the other 10.

Why do you refuse to call him by his chosen name, I bet you would if he wanted to be Tina Robinson or Mohamed Akram. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

As people are putting Bale in I presume “ all players regarded as in their prime” means career prime, rather than Saints prime. If so, here’s mine. They’d have to play in a 4-3-1-2 GG-Shilton RB-Mick Mills CB-Mark Wright CB-Toby LB-Mark Dennis CM-Jimmy Case RM-Alan Ball LM- Bale 10-MLT CF-Kevin Keegan CF-Mark Hughes Subs- Peter Osgood, Alan Shearer , Mane, Killer, Neimi, Steve Williams, Terry Paine.

What a load of pony. Lawrie introduced plenty of youngsters, bloody fantastic players they were as well. Mark Wright, Danny Wallace, Steve Williams, Steve Moran, Reuben Agboola, Nick Holmes. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Err, decades. How about the following 2 seasons which were even better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He’d do well in France or even Spain, not sure he’s got the physicality for England’s top clubs. If we’re playing a back 3 he’s plenty good enough for us. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Exactly the point , although it seems to have gone over others heads. They’re comparing a keeper that has only just broken through , with two that were regular starters. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Didn’t Lambert bully Clyne in the championship at Sellhurst Park, if my memory serves, he pulled onto him time and time again Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

They didn’t go back to being second choice as you said yourself, they were playing regular football, he wasn’t. Why after finally establishing himself as a number 1 would he want to go back as a number 2. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

If it was Joey Barton or Balotelli with this stupid tattoo all the linekars of the world wouldn't be defending it. It's pretty pathetic and tasteless if you ask me, but it gives people a chance to have a dig at the press. I don't buy this "my dad was shot" pony. If he died of a OD is a syringe tattoo a great tribute? "I'm never going to touch drugs, and here's my tattoo of Keith Richards to show that".

Just re read what you've written and then think about it for a minute. You do realise that even under the best coaches, players go backwards or lose form , don't you. You're claiming FF listens to Watson, but McCarthy doesn't . You're just twisting things to justify your opinion. I could say FF doesn't listen to Watson, but McCarthy does, which is why McCarthy has improved and FF has gone backwards. I won't say that because I'm not a ****ing idiot, and like you I'm not close enough to the club to make that judgement. You can't however, blame him for FF without crediting him for McCarthy.

Obvious? When was the last time a keeper was player of the season? Oh no, sorry I forgot, his coaching had nothing to do with it. He coached FF, but not McCarthy. Watson out Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

We all know what it'll take for blokes to watch it but unfortunately political correctness will get in the way. The propblem chick football has it tries to pretend it's legitimate elite sport. Like somehow the top bird that plays it is as deserving of the national stage as Harry Kane or Wayne Roony. Tennis, athletics and swimming are amongst those sports that pull it off (no pun intended) but football doesn't, because they're so hopeless at it. They should be changing and amending their game, thinking out of the box. Look at volley ball. They've devoloped it and changes it from a boring blokes game to an exciting sport. It's popular, probably more so than the blokes game. The birds who run their football should think out of the box a bit. Just trying to play a blokes sport won't work. Maybe a futsol type small sided game, no tackling, under head height etc. As well a few other things that are probably better left under the banner of "promoting the game" on here, as I don't want to be portrayed as a sexist dinosaur

Are any of them fit. They could have a quick kick around at half time or even participate in the relay. If Kenzie presented the winners with their prizes I might even stay in my seat, provided her microphone was switched off

Somebody needs to highlight the particular problems and hypocrisy surround Islam, the media and the British establishment, but the problem is It shouldn’t be a moron. Robinson makes it way too easy to be dismissed as a racist bigot, probably because he is one. Therefore any valid points around censorship , and the overindulgence of that medieval culture is easy to dismiss. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

From all accounts he was average in the reserves ( or what ever it’s called nowadays). He also has improved as the weeks went on, although how much of that is coaching and how much is confidence and regular games is debatable. You just can’t pin one keepers decline down to poor coaching, whilst ignoring the improvement in the other, unless you’ve got an agenda. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The ones from Liverpool who go to the games are some of the most reasonable and knowledgeable I’ve met in 40 odd years of supporting Saints. There’s certainly more bias and general cluelessness at St Mary’s than there is amongst that group. Due to their success & the “history“ surrounding the club, they’ve inherited a vast number of idiots from around the country, probably the children of my generation, as we started watching the game when their success started. There’s also a lot from the surrounding areas, who aren’t really scousers at all, more woolly backs. It’s a great city with great people in, whether red or blue they’re a pleasure to talk football with. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The whole game gave a fascinating insight into the modern game. Fantastic skills, and excitement but the culture of the game is being lost. The commentary creaming themselves over VvD, yet never acknowledging his horrendous behaviour and unprofessionalism towards us. Ronaldo hinting that he was leaving in an interview straight after the game was completely classless. He didn't like the fact Bale was going to get the headlines, so had to make it about him. Finally all YNWA stuff shown as complete pony. Say what you like about Sir Alex, and he was a ruthless barsteward, but he'd have been over consoling that keeper as soon as it ended, as would have Gary Neville and others schooled under Fergie. The self pity and selfish behaviour of the Liverpool and staff towards that lad was shocking. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What a ****ing clown. Can you imagine Shanks or Bob Paisley being like this after a win, let alone a defeat. http:// https://mobile.twitter.com/oliver__bond/status/1000705656507322368 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
