As I am too pissed off to watch MOTD when we lose, was any mention about the foul given against KWP which led to the equalising goal. Myself and those around me thought it should have been a free kick to us and I remember thinking I bet they score from a Refs poor decision, and they did!!

Yup he wasnt in the Reading squad today. On his way £20m

Any one know how Small is doing at Port Vale? Last time I looked he was on the bench.

The majority of people I know who voted for Brexit did it on the assumption that immigration would be banished. That seems to be going well!!!

The so called 'Festival of Brexit' officially known as 'Unboxed' and promoted by the likes of Jacob Rees-Mogg, to 'celebrate' British creativity and our exit from the European Union, had a publicly funded budget of £120m with a budgeted target of 66 million visitors. Last month just 238,000 people (ie 0.4%) were known to have attended since the first events opened in March. Another waste of Tax payers money similar to Boris's bridge over the Thames and the Marble Arch Mound.

King Charles is readying his backing group, The Sunshine Band, to perform at next week's wake. 'Please Don't Go' and 'Get Down Tonight' may not be appropriate for the occasion.

I gave Joe Jordan offside when I was a lino for a Reserve game. I felt the heat from his toothless grimace 25 yds away!!

And better in the Box

With the cost of electricity hitting businesses harder than domestic users (and that it saying something), I wonder if winter games will get to be kicked off at say 1300hrs to save on the cost of floodlights etc. This happened during the three day week back in the 1970's and was also the case prior to the introduction of floodlights in the 1950's. I guess most fans have become used to the changes in KO times due to TV scheduling.

They are blowing their collective noses or airing some sheets before bed time!!

That's the way to leave a club. A very good player, great servant, likeable and intelligent. A credit to himself and his family. Best of luck for the future Oriel. Forever a Saint/

With the Spanish lad playing at left back I wonder where that leaves Thierry Small who was touted as being our future No 3? Notice he was only named as sub for Port Vale when they played some nondescript team last Saturday.

Out of interest does the 2023 transfer window still operate in January despite the World Cup affecting game time from November and most of December?

Shame we didnt get the third goal we nearly scored as this would have made things a bit easier. Chelsea had finesse we had heart, commitment and physicality. I enjoyed it.

Nice place Falmouth. Always find a way to visit on our annual visit to deepest Cornwall.

I have followed Saints since the year dot and played to a decent level so like to think I have a reasonable view of players. However I thought KWP was too lightweight for us and we had paid too much for him. Goes to show I am just like many fans in my player assessment!!! However whilst I may have a moan to mates around me I would never verbally abuse a player or Manager, although I may have offered a more comprehensive opinion about his Managerial skills to Mr Branfoot.

When we were in the Championship I had 4 season tickets two of which I gave to a retired friend and his wife who supported Ipswich to join me at the game. Unfortunately Ipswich scored first and my friend's wife put her hands together to applaud. Just one clap before realising it wasnt the done thing. A few days later I got quite a nasty letter from the club reminding me that tickets in the home end were for home supporters only and I would lose all my 4 tickets if it was found that I provided entrance to away fans in future. Apparently a couple of old farts behind us had taken the trouble of reporting the situation to the club. As a consequence of this I gave up three of the seats and moved my own seat to another location for the following season. The way the club treats home supporters in comparison to away fans is an ongoing problem.

Speculation that Chelsea have offered £25m plus Broja and Gallagher for Anthony Gordon. If true that will be a good deal for Everton and likely to really strengthen one of our relegation rivals.

I came across Dave on a few occasions when he was working for an Office furniture company and later assisted with an event he was arranging. He was a very underrated player for Saints Found him to be a really nice man and shame he has gone so soon

Actually I reckon KWP would be better suited to a wide right midfielder role. He looked good in a cameo performance pre season at SMS when Valery played right back, and actually did very well.

Notice that Broja wasn't involved in the Chelsea squad today which may say something although it seems our interest in him may have cooled,

Selles will take over from Ralph!!

So if Jack Stephens leaves for Watford, this leaves Salisu and Bocha- Ketchup plus Lyanco and possibly Valery as our remaining central defenders as I dont think Simeu is ready yet.

Who's the dancer? James Brown?
