Good point - yes I guess Mara could be that as he seems to getting a fair bit of game time straight off the bat.

[MLG mode on] statistically there is a 50% chance of an argument starting on Saintsweb therefore it neither favours nor hinders the need for a separate thread [MLG mode off]. 🤣🤣🤣

I’m nervous now about losing Adams when there’s been no indication of a replacement striker for Long/Broja let alone Che. I think it could be the undoing of us and all the early doors good work in this window by getting this one wrong. Don’t score goals, you don’t win games of football.

Interesting that I find myself feeling slightly optimistic of a result, but realistically they’ve got such an abundance of quality it’s hard not to imagine a minor spanking helping them out of the mire they’re in. I’m lucky enough to have an ST in the Northam for this one - the one stand at SMS I’ve never been in before, so hoping for at least a draw to mark the occasion.

Would be sad to see him go - been a fantastic pro for us and top DM, but his game has slowed and the move is the best for both parties as it’s reported he wants to be back in Spain. Good luck OR and thanks for your time as a Saint!

FT - good strong performance from Saints.

What a crying shame we're not getting to see these youngsters in action.

Diamond Edwards on for Diallo. Good.

Ballard scores 3-0!!! Fantastic debut!

Blimey - McCarthy catches a crossed ball. lol

If Carling did Carabou Cup results....

Norwich 2-1 Bompey - lolololol

Wouldn't like to bump into him on a dark night.

1451 Saints fans in attendance - get applauded by the Cambridge fans. Nice touch.

COYS - let's have another one please. Ballard straight into the action and shoots.

Oh dear - need to get another goal - they've got their tails up a bit. Payne needs subbing - cramp which is understandable. Sounds like Diablo is having a bit of a mare...need replace him. Ballard now on for.Payne.

Palace go ahead - damn.

Aribo, Mara and Djenepo on - Adam Armstrong and Che off.

Villa 2 up thanks to a dubious pen for Ings. Looked offside, ran with the ball...poked it past keeper at 100 miles an hour and then went over the keepers outstretched leg deliberately.

Oh dear, we could be really miles ahead if not for really poor finishing - Romeu missing a sitter now.

Che does it again - has he read the "How to be a prolific striker" training book? lol

Benfica 2-0 up - will this affect our chances to sign Ramos, if indeed we're in for him in reality?

You could say that for all the youngsters we've been bringing in from elsewhere surely? If he can follow the gaffers instructions and put in a good performance, who knows?

No. Look further back in this thread?

Adam Armstrong (of course! lol).
