I thought that was what the ref was going to do. Pull out 2 yellows after he played advantage following the first challenge. Would have been easier to defend than a straight red I imagine.

Impressive. Ings MOTM for me, impressive all over the pitch and getting the two assists.

And Tadic managed one of them. Some 19 year old Lassina Traoré managed 5 and usually plays for their youth team in the Eerste Divisie.

Yellow sub: In the town where I was born lived a man who sailed to sea And he told us of his dream To play defence for saints fc We’re all here for Mohammed Salisu, Mohammed Salisu, Mohammed Salisu We’re all here for Mohammed Salisu, Mohammed Salisu, Mohammed Salisu

I thought being drunk was a requirement for employment within the Navy. It comes up at interview in-between "what are your weaknesses" and "why is there a work gap in your CV".

I've also found this the last few games, that it's been a real team effort rather than any one outstanding individual. Nice to see.

Can anyone explain how "all 20" PL clubs rejected the proposal. Surely there would have been at least 2 clubs in favour, and probably at least 6?

This is my price too. I am a tight arse. I don't mind paying a fiver to watch a game legally and reliably but any more and I'll stream.

Nice seeing him close down the keeper, even if it came to nothing. Keeps them nervy.

Taps at the heartstrings

Theo gets his old number back...

50k x 4 (weeks) x 8 (months) = £1.6m Pretty decent gamble if you ask me

Will cost us what, £1.5m or something to the end of the season? For decent cover so we don't have to rely on Smallbone, worth it for that alone. Add in that he might even add something special if Ralph can get him into shape. Might even get a goal or two. Contract nearly up. Add a bit of nostalgia into the mix. A no brainer.

"And we've still got Theo on the bench..."

So glad we've cobbled a couple of wins together. This season could wreck a team's confidence. Imagine if it was us tonight on a 7-2 Villa defeat. I can just about get my head around receiving a beating against an in-form Spurs, but not Villa. Not like this.

Just switched this on....funny old day.

Should help us lift a couple of cups

Thought KWP was really good today and am not surprised he's many people's MOTM. Going forward though, I think he could be even better if he was more adventurous. A couple of times he had space to run into in the last third but hesitated and played backwards. Also missed a great opportunity to get Ings in on goal in the second half.

JWP said he wasn't sure if Romeu's goal was a shot or a tackle. Banter

Laurel and Hardy couldn't have done better.

But, for old times sake...

Has to happen.

Not particularly impressed with Davies so far. Pretty absent going forward. Can't find space. Completed a handful of passes but that's about it. Not involved

No virus will want to stay inside him for too long.

Ah, no worries. 👍
