Saints shirt to a Pompey game vs Tranmere aged 6/7. Parents were splitting up at the time, a couple of weeks earlier I went to my first Saints game vs Everton under the lights. I was then taken to Fratton Park in April, Dad told my Mum I was going to the football so she naturally assumed Saints, so put me in the Saints shirt under my jacket. Took my jacket off and got battered (verbally), had a steward approach my Dad and told me to turn it inside out, even had two old dears stick up for me and say leave me alone. I remember my Dad taking me to the toilet and he was getting hammered, I didn't understand at the time. Pretty sure he had a few words with my Mum when we got back.

Choosing not to cup tie JWP & Lavia but Che plays.
-
Anyone got a screen shot of the tweet of the lad that met RM at HaBar and was full of praise of him? Highlighted that he expects JWP to be gone?
-
Na, I can vouch he was very decent in the majority. Occasional slip or error but you'd grant that for the style of play and especially his age at the time. His distribution was so much better at Pompey and they would usually play from him much quicker than we do.
-
Enjoyed that. My god I wanted Delgado to be decent back in the day. He looked horrendous in that cameo with the exception of a flick.

I’ve been hoping we had this template brought back for a long time and now it’s here… I’m not sure. Sponsor looks wank and would’ve looked better in black/white. Black trim on the arm perhaps? Looks better on Mara than JWP. GK kits looks shite, just reminds me of how skit the keepers were last season. Annoyed I never brought the relaunched retro kit back in 2021.

Gents, appreciate it’s in the wrong place but I’ve been let down. Has anyone got a large men’s old Saint home shirt they’d be willing to part with? (Don’t care what year) I’m off on a stag this weekend and desperately need one for the skate groomsman. Ideally someone local to Pompey?

Horrendous from Diallo

Cat amongst the pigeons.... Would you take Sarina Wiegman?
-
PS how shit are we as a fan base? relegation battle and the stadiums full of families or a couple of old girls with their bobble hats on. Appreciate the performances are flat but even when we occasionally score, it's a cheer of 'relief' rather than sheer cunty, nutty limbs and aggression.
-
We are so poor at transitioning, we always allow for the opposition to recover the depth of the ball and reorganise even on dead balls. Selles has got the team selection wrong this evening.
-
Any other streams, last one went all robotic and nutty.

Short answer based on my assumptions that we’re going down; Michael Carrick Strategically, if I’m Rasmus I’d be exploring the opportunity to have a conversation to ‘sell the role’ with any of Bosz, Tedesco, Kompany or Gallardo. However, all of them would require a number of assurances and a bloody large survival bonus. I really don’t like the links with Gerrard, Nuno and especially Marsch (I think culturally American managers/coaches will struggle in the UK). Intrigued by Bielsa, I reckon it’ll be caranage if he came in.
-
Please not Jesse Marsch... I beg of you.

What’s the reaction like in SMS for those watching/listening?
-
Fair enough, but I'm at the points I'd take losing and Jones going over winning and Jones staying. Each to our own.
-
Respect to them fronting it. However, it's categorically not good enough. It's pretty simple, I'm beyond caring about the result Saturday (ish), I want St Mary's to be so venomous so it's crystal clear we want Nathan Jones out. Jones's performance AND conduct has been nothing short of a disgrace. I can hack going down, just not under him.

What do the board actually expect the fan base to do for the Wolves game if they don't sack him? I'd go as far as saying he's hated by number of the fanbase and severely disliked by the majority. it'll be toxic. He's going to get peppered by supporters and St Mary's isn't going to be very pleasant on Saturday, which will magnify if(when) we lose to Wolves. It's public knowledge a number of players dislike him, why run the risk of further damage at Staplewood. Even if they don't feel there's a better option out there right this minute, he's surpassed underperforming with his conduct to the supporters, players and media. The irony is, I got to know a very good hard working man lose his job in the EFL this year and he was totally devastated he lost his job. It made me really reflect on that these are blokes are Husbands, Fathers, Friends and that supporters need to wind their necks in at times. However NJ has made me dismiss that attitude and he deserves to know his conduct AND performance is not acceptable.

I despise the little fucker.

Monk replied to Chez's topic in The Saints
With the greatest of respect, Jones lost us that game the cocky little prick. -
Pretty sure they'll be actively top themselves reading through that.

So we assuming Sully is the only deal, neigh chance of us signing big Paul and Sully.... is there?
-
I’m so lost now, assuming Moussa Djenpo is off to the football manager lad in France? Are we in for all three? Vitinha Dembele Sully (Rennes player) what about Hjulmand? surely we aren’t going for all three/four?
