Actually I still don't believe it.

I'm sorry is everyone now having a nervous breakdown?

I saw what you did there and I'm not pleased

Interesting selection, and adds more weight to the argument that we are, and will remain, far behind Leicester this season.

Might we actually benefit, for once, from a new-manager thud?

The Oatcake forum is glorious right now

You know you've properly fucked it, don't you

Odd that RM should have met with Potter and given him such a rave review. In any other walk of life it would sound like you're choosing, or perhaps unconsciously choosing, your successor.

And mostly in the opposition's net.

And Leicester will only have one shot on target but win 3-2.

What to make of Russell Martin's start to the season? Saints podcast discussion summarised here

Looks a bit like we're playing the team with subs from the start, then bringing on the first team in the second half.

Yep, it's gone the same way as the other one.

According to my Arsenal-obsessed son, no one vaguely credible on their various forums thinks this. We'll see...

Any good?

The idea might be to do what Fulham (and others) did a couple of seasons ago - let a talented player out on loan in the hope/expectation that we're in the Prem next season and he'll be back.

Can still see KWP slipping away, so expect Charles in the back four with Holgate at RB (?) If Adams is still here he'd surely lead the line, and AA to play at 8. But then again who knows...?

You're going to look pretty silly when we sell everything and groundshare with AFC Totton.

Did you hear this from the horse's mouth or did you pop round and get it from the other end?

If this were an accurate reflection on how they actually think about their ownership of the club they're fucking idiots. I don't believe that SR are idiots.

Bugger

You mean he's toast? Or he couldn't give a toffee? I'm confused by new expressions.

He had Harvey Elliott teeing them up at Blackburn, which would have helped...

Finally, a properly worded question. He's injured (?)
