Really odd predictions for us. No wins in 6 to start, bottom of league. Then beat City at the Ethiad with Redmond getting a “pep talk” and then Arsenal. Ings with a hattrick vs Everton. What utter tripe!

It’s all gone a bit quiet. I think we won’t see any ins and the outs will likely just be loans.

Read again. I didn’t say nickname, I agreed with the other poster about my suggestions not being nicknames. But after some quick research you are indeed correct they have never been called Glasgow Celtic.

Yeah I get what you mean. No nicknames but how they are more often referred as. Not many say “Glasgow Celtic” etc. I’d say we have one of the most famous nicknames in England if people were asked to quickly say the first English football team nickname that came into their head. I guess a few would reply “spurs” or “united” but they’d be wrong,

For PL I’d say: Wolves Spurs Saints City United Foxes In general: Barca Celtic Rangers Real Bayern

Was at work, couldn’t get a stream so put on Solent online. Gabbi scored!!!! Went ballistic! Saints are (somehow) staying up. Rode my bike home singing “ohhhhhhhh Gabbiadini”.

Ok then. I won’t upset you anymore. I’ll try to be more empathetic, thanks for bringing me up on it.

Shame on me for hoping Saints players do well.

Too many on here have shown too much enjoyment from being “proved right” as opposed to when we actually play well and win.

Touched a raw nerve I guess.

Exactly. We’ve got RaHa now so maybe everyone should get a clean slate and we get behind the ****ing team. If they don’t play well then they won’t feature in Ralph’s plans (unless we have no choice due to injuries/suspensions).

I didn’t say it would happen just that it would be hilarious. It’s another Saintsweb tradition to utterly trash our players. Trash them if they stay to warm the bench, trash them if they leave, trash them if they make a mistake, trash them because somehow a $12-18M player should be tearing up the league week in week out. We’re a work in progress hampered by poor management from Les, a bit of patience and lowered expectation would go a long way,

Would be ****ing hilarious if Hoedt and Boufal compete for Saints player of the season. How will some cope with a dry bed?

Maybe cabbage farce was right. We sold him by mistake but are in negotiations to buy him back for 23M.

The other argument is why take a haircut by selling him cheap and subsidizing his wages only to get in another Moi? Yes he’s disappointed us, but it makes more sense for Ralph to take a look at him first and see if he can get him playing more like the player we thought we were getting.

No Boufal = no party. Wonder what the parties are like though. Many Moroccan’s don’t drink.

An article on Mike Trout? Doesn’t seem Saints related, sounds more like Pompey to me...

I wonder if a spot in the midfield 2 with Hoj would suit him. For all his faults he did run with the ball and pass it well on occasion.

So is it pronounced “shay” or “chay” or something else?

Embarrassing that they had to speed up the clips. Why on earth would you do that, it’s not Benny Hill.

Jesus, 2 Heisen-posts in 2 days I’ve agreed with. Is it all the sun they got in Glasgow recently a factor?

VAR check underway. States have had so many penalties in this competition. Really harsh decision, again missed by ref and not a pen in my eyes.

Magilton score a beauty at the city ground vs Forest. Mickey Evans saved us from relegation.

I lived oop north and saw him score a screamer atScarborough in the league cup. Could that be it?

I remember a couple of Derek Statham thunderbolts. Saints had an elaborate free kick routine at the time that involved 3 passes before laying off to an o rushing Statham.
