Singapore Saint

So sparse on details, I wish I knew what was actually said. If the 4th official wasn't guilty of racism, why was he found guilty of inappropriate behaviour and punished nonetheless? What alleged "racist term" amounts to inappropriate behaviour yet falls short of outright racism? You know the saying, "Justice must not only be served, it must be seen to be served." Well, how do we know if the punishment of suspension till the end of the season is just if we don't know what was actually said? Is the punishment too heavy/unmerited in order to placate the woke leftists? Or is it too light? Or is it just right (and therefore just)? Most unsatisfactory all around, I would say. P.S. "Person of colour" here speaking - not that I think it should matter - but just in case someone thinks this is "white privilege" speaking, well it isn't.

You don't understand. We are not panicking, we are FORWARD panicking with next season in mind.

I completely agree, better get him before Newcastle do.

If that's what he looks like when he's low in confidence, heaven help us when he's high in confidence!

I blame him for our relegation in 2004, I really do, him shoving the ref resulted in a 10-match ban which cost us dearly. Much better commentator than player.

Stuart Ripley, David Prutton, Nigel Quashie, Nathan Redmond - all liabilities IMHO.

Why insult Trump supporters? Why not try and win them over with polite, logical argument (or be won over)? (I'm a Trump supporter, if it matters - probably shouldn't.)

Why is wondering aloud the colour of someone's as-yet-unborn offspring a sin? Why is it racist? Are we not allowed to wonder aloud about anything any more? Incidentally I'm a "person of colour" (if it matters, not that I think it should).

I 💘 Trump, best president ever!

Reverting to form.

You know our fans, when they can't spell Gao, you don't expect them to be able to spell Che.

A very Arsenal-like player, surprised they didn't keep him.

A shot across the bow ahead of our two Championship games next season.

Ali Dia > Nathan Redmond

Doesn't deserve such a long post.

He has the "deer in headlights" look which I remember seeing in AVB and Tim Sherwood when their days were obviously numbered.

I rate Ali Dia above Redmond, I really do. If you've ever wondered what Souness saw in Dia, you have to ask what Ralph sees in Redmond. Dia in the 20 minutes he played for Saints, managed to beat a player and nearly scored. Redmond on the other hand too often looks like he's playing for the other team.

I remember when Puel was in charge a home game against Crystal Palace. The half-time score was 0-0. After the break, Puel made a clever tactical change that had us playing the ball on the ground in Palace's box rather than whizzing crosses in because their players were bigger and more physical than ours so we stood little chance of winning aerial duels. We came away 3-0 winners in a tactical masterclass by the dour Frenchman. 0-0 at HT, 3-0 at FT, we did to Palace what Leeds did to us yesterday. When was the last time Ralph got his tactics right? When was the last time we scored a second-half goal under Ralph, not to mention 3? Puel > Ralph

There you go again, pissing on the team 😉

Agree Ralph has to go. He's Wreck It Ralph at the moment, with his energy-sapping constant pressing that spoils any shape we might otherwise have. Pick one: A) Tony Pulis (available and might have a soft spot for Saints on account of his son having played for us) B) Nigel Pearson (available and DAJFU before) C) Mark Hughes (available and DAJFU before but what irony!) D) Chris Houghton E) Eddie Howe F) Kazakhstani relegation expert Itsan Emer Gency

I think it was also a case of if you're fit, you play otherwise known as we're down to the bare bones.

Apparently you can fluke an entire season: https://www.liverpool.com/liverpool-fc-news/features/liverpool-michael-edwards-transfer-traore-19875338 Reckon Wolves got greedy and bluffed with £100m but nobody called their bluff.

I used to be in the art business and occasionally would see a work of genius by an undiscovered artist. You ask to see more of his/her work and then you realise the "masterpiece" you saw was a fluke. Hopefully that's not the case with Salisu. Like you, I have a good first (and second) impression of him.

Messi + Mane + Salah + Pahars = MINAMINO 💘 Let's hope the bin dippers don't nick him from us.
