Mattio

Can't see it happening, he's already said he wants to end his career with Leicester, and his spell with Greece nearly did it prematurly! I feel like he works best when he can spend a lot of time with the players, which will never happen at International level.

OptaPro just posted this, interesting to see 3 saints players but only 1 Leicester player in there so maybe that's one of our best chances of scoring?

£30 a game, can't complain about that!

This, although whilst he's nowhere near as good as Butland, Shay Given is still a top keeper, they've also got a young Swiss keeper who from what I've seen has potential, so they're still a threat for that last european place. Hopefully Butland recovers well, at least it's a break and not a muscle thing so should be a trouble free recovery.

Surely this would have been budgeted for when we signed him as he was our only first team RB? Maybe we're Waiting til the end of the tax year?!

I really can't see Wanyama, Mane or Pelle staying this summer, also a bit worried someone will come in with stupid offers for Van Dijk or Forster then we're probably in a worse state than we were 2 summers ago. This will be a key summer in terms of holding on to what we have and building on it rather than losing players and replacing them with equivilent or worse players.

Thanks, some great goats there and also some really good saves from Gazza who seems to have improved a lot in the last season.

The people who sit around me went to leave when they scored their 'third', kind of wish they did as they always leave on 80/85mins and would have served them right for all those times! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not massive news but good to see Forster put straight into the England team! Hopefully he'll get some minutes to prove himself. Who else has got into their international teams?

This. In any case who are we to know that we actually paid £12m straight up for him? It's probably based on a tonne of clauses which would mean he'd 'earnt' the value we gave him.

A lot of squeaky bum time but good to have finally got a win, lets hope we can get something next week. (FYI #saintsfc is currently 3rd highest trend behind the rugby and the SNP conference)

Everyone who wants to stand does anyway at SMS, it's just unsafe to do so at the moment, it doesn't make sense to NOT inforce it at SMS.

Cheers for the tips, I was wondering if that would be the case so I'll be heading into town in that case! Also a fan of ale so will head for the Goat and Tricycle!

I'll be getting down about 3ish (without colours) and going to the Percy Shelley Wetherspoons for something to eat - hopefully will be a few other pubs in the area or someone else will mention some places.

Hi .

Nice article - I'd say that the viterol from the Bournemouth fans wavered when we played them in L1, but it's also a bigger occasion than playing another relegation battling team for obvious reasons of location. GWC - could you add a little B or S next to each persons quote as I was getting lost as to who supported who!

:scared:

Does plastic not count as savoury?

That has to be based on Saints seeing as theyre in red and white and its a flatpack stadium by the south coast sea!

Worst away day by far!

Could be good for England though!

Does anyone know a way to get back from the game to London without having to catch a rail replacement bus from Winch. (Don't suggest driving! )

More segregation I guess?
