Dark Munster

You are assuming I presume no civilisation-ending asteroids, CMEs or Putin nukes.

There have been worse overall Saints performances (the Leicester one as an obvious example), because today we weren't shit defensively. But attacking-wise I can't remember anything this bad, it was beyond appalling.

Starting XI: Bazunu, Walker-Peters, Bella-Kotchap, Salisu, Perraud, Diallo, Ward-Prowse [c], Elyounoussi, Djenepo, Adams, A. Armstrong. Subs: McCarthy, Larios, Lyanco, Ćaleta-Car, S. Armstrong, Aribo, Edozie, Mara, Walcott. <sigh>

Yes, they go up every odd numbered year, and down in an even numbered one. And Fulham do it the other way around.

In fairness, it's calling for Djenepo over a tub of lard.

From Wiki: If any sides have equal points, tie-breakers are applied in the following order: most wins, fewest losses, team achieving most points in contests between teams level on points, most wickets taken, most runs scored. Having said that I doubt Hants can catch Surrey if as expected they beat Northants tomorrow.

Bangers. It's hard to get decent ones here in San Diego.

I doubt City would've sold him to us without the low buy back. Basically a nice loan deal, where we enjoy him for a few seasons and make a bit of money at the end of it, rather than paying a non-refundable loan fee for him. Can't complain!

King Charles thanks you!

I heard all pubs are closed as a mark of respect.

Good grief, calling off matches would be ludicrous. Yes she was a good queen, but 96 is a very good innings. If she had been murdered by terrorists at age 40 definitely call all matches off and start the mourning. 1 minute silence, play the football, and spend the week celebrating her record reign and achievements.

It used to be worse. I’m old enough to remember Hants losing out to Worcestershire for the title because of a rained off match in which they got 0 points. I’m not sure what can be done about rain affected matches, but having a lopsided schedule is a joke. See my earlier post about that.

A good listen as always. I listen to the pod version, and unfortunately it seems Jacob's muffled mic is back.

In short, the goal was Redmond's fault!

But not a second one, presumably?

Any of their strikers on a half year goal drought?

Eerily similar to what happened to Ralph after his first season with us. Thankfully we have a new number 2 with brains to help Ralph.

"Poffertjes."

Or @trousers on any day.

Actually that's not a bad idea. The transfer window closes slams shut soon, so what better way for Ralph to send a message to the board that we're desperate for a new front man who can score? 😉

Jacob's mic is now working great, crystal clear! Cheers. 👍

Biden's daughter's diary was stolen by right wing nutjobs. Then, surprise surprise, they claim it contains an account of him abusing his daughter. How very credible. They've been trying to paint him as pedo for years: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/aug/12/facebook-posts/fact-checking-pedophilia-attacks-against-joe-biden/

That would be great, but by most opinions here not only has that train left the port, it has disappeared over the horizon.
