  1. It maybe so and feel free to start threads (which wouldn’t attract this level of comment for sure) but he’s certainly an enigma manager. Even today I’m not sure if he’s the best con man ever or a deep thinker let down by his players. apart from Hoddle there’s few saint managers who fit the cult leader mould so well. All he needs is a white suit and bare feet now.
  2. European fitba
  3. It’s getting hard to avoid RM up here between front page papers and now a lot of live games on terrestrial tv so have developed a reluctant rangers follower hobby while waiting for something to happen in the championship. It’s heartbreaking to see a team doing russball pretty well in only its second week of being told. Sure Saturday was a hiccup where a more determined side outplayed him but tonight was pretty ok and two attacking wingers is a great watch. whatever anyone says about the bloke he can charm pundits (as he did with linekar)
  4. If the papers up here are right then they’ll take more than a few. May end up with a liverpool or before that Arsenal relegation type exodus. Sports scene on the bbc is going to become a lot more familiar my rangers supporting postie now has a daily RM chat before he will hand over my Amazon stuff.
  5. Maybe it should the nearest EPL team to your birthplace. That’s Chelsea for me but I’d rather get into ice hockey. What about the SPL?. There’s at least two teams worth following. If the bus to Glasgow (free travel up here) was under three hours I might think about giving it a go, but it isn’t ! Lots of saints came from the east end. Stu, VVD, Victor, FF etc..
  6. going to have to change my icon
  7. Sad day. Hope he goes to Italy. Would hate to see him in a Fulham or a West Ham shirt.
  8. You probably don’t need a release clause. Scottish players don’t lose their international selection rights by being in the championship. And RM played alongside him a while ago.
  9. saw Mane at the emirates in his first saints sub appearance (work had Arsenal tickets and nobody else wanted them that evening).. gave him 9 in the player ratings and everyone else gave him a 0 so even Sadio Mane takes a while to become Sadio Mane in the eyes of our folks.
  10. Summer 26. Celtic rumours but RM has ScotMafia powers. When not injured is spectacular.
  11. Six years to become a basic solicitor after the law degree while you work on mundane tasks like property searches or probate inheritance allowances . Contrast that with the cut and thrust of the premiership touchline (and the salary). Is there a choice ? it’s stu’s choice and I’ll respect whatever he chooses. He’s clearly smarter than the average midfielder (apart from Socrates).
  12. Keep Stu and make him do his coaching badges. He can 45/45 groundshare with Lallana then when RM gets poached they can fight to be the next manager. And on strikers.. are they still interested in Shankland ? He may get a run out at the euros at Che's expense so worth watching
  13. Apologies is this was posted as it's a long thread. BBC Leeds have similar partisan coverage to our own Blackmore/Tessem channel. I think their control room techs were less law abiding and switched back on their feed at 5pm so it includes the last couple of minutes of play. This is what they made of losing. It's what we'd have done if we hadn't pulled it off. All the what-ifs and what-nexts you'd expect from a club staying down. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0hzb5gx
  14. It's heading that way. All we need is Dykes up front now.
  15. I did wonder but no time to dig as the goals were rattling in.. reviews of KS... may explain some of the mess What are the disadvantages of Kaltura? Kaltura drawbacks Reviewers note that the user interface is “clumsy,” that “there are a number of illogical omissions in their product capabilities,” and that some settings are “extremely difficult to customize.”
  16. Not working here (UK-Scotland).. Money back process ?
  17. Since moving out of the Solent FM area to north of the border the Saints app is all I have. I didn't pay because it was unclear if it was going to be the solent sports stream on the saintsfc website (which would have been a pretty good selling point). Now I know I'll pay up as wiring a FM radio in front of the security camera at my dads house in Hampshire might be a little excessive. If you think this is boring, spare a thought for the folks up here who want to watch Stu and Che play their internationals which isn't on BBC Scotland or STV and only available on viaplay while England games are shown to the locals on BBC so they can cheer "anyone but england"
  18. Also Che is unlikely to lose out on his international selection by being in the championship which would be a factor for the england boys.
  19. That's good enough for me.. There's a lot of good left backs north of the border.
  20. getting the shopping bus down from Andover with the old ladies with their bags on wheels. Having to leave the Dell 10 minutes before the end of the game or you were trapped in Southampton. And all this for 2nd Division football.
  21. Stu and Che playing well and regularly bodes well for scotland ukraine.. assuming there is a ukraine in a month.
  22. Tadic is meant to be doing his badges soon.. Maybe there's a chance to get him back now.
  23. he wouldn't have played gilmour and we'd have won
  24. well I really enjoyed Scotland Denmark !! shame Stu got blocked right at the end for a third but the second goal was an all saints affair. Che is now a national treasure up here and even Pie and Bovril and BBC Scotland Off The Ball (which IMHO is about the funniest "fitba" radio show on the planet) are raving about him.
