Saint-Armstrong

No he's trying to keep the players up as we have another game in 2 days time.

Nope. If he goes it will be a Chamberlain scenario again. Became apparent that Cortese and Adkins sat the lad down and said he could go at the end of the season if we got an acceptable deal.

Upson and Huth. Shotton at RB and Wilkinson at LB their fans seem to think.

Thoughts folks? Penalty aside Rickie was poor? Thought Yoshida looked good...

Taarabt left out of Morocco squad.

Interesting to see Paine, Channon and Moran have all been back at the club and been welcomed and maintained what appear to be good relationships with Cortese. Yet Le Tissier and Benali don't. It's certainly not a case of Cortese totally wanting to ignore the past...

Just seen this picture posted on Twitter by Luke Shaw - and it made me laugh so here you go: Good laugh. So the question is, what would you buy for a particular Saints player?

Aware of duplicate post, please delete other version. It's in four parts, but it's different and interesting. A sit down chat with Adam Blackmore and Adam Lallana. Adam just talking his way through the last 12 months. Part One: http://audioboo.fm/boos/1127557-part-one-of-adam-lallana-s-review-of-2012-saintsfc Part Two: http://audioboo.fm/boos/1127558-part-two-of-adam-lallana-s-review-of-2012-saintsfc?playlist_direction=forward Part Three: http://audioboo.fm/boos/1127559-part-three-of-adam-lallana-s-review-of-2012-saintsfc?playlist_direction=forward Part Four: http://audioboo.fm/boos/1127560-part-four-of-adam-lallana-s-review-of-2012-saintsfc?playlist_direction=forward Found it interesting, and different and thought to share it here.

It's only a couple of inches in a paper, nothing worth getting upset over. Buckley is a talent, but we need PL experience at the back more importantly. I know you are used to crying over just a couple of inches, but here is not the place for it.

I can say that Jason Puncheon (and family) have read this site at least once in the past...

Thought their support was very good actually.

I couldn't stop laughing at your failure. So much arrogance and then a complete inability to roll it in from close range. Hilarious. Ta.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/southampton/9762263/Southampton-striker-Rickie-Lamberts-new-lease-of-life-comes-from-living-like-a-saint.html Again, interesting from Wilson and The Telegraph, a decent article. Rickie's story is a great one!

He went back the week before the Reading game. He's been back since the Friday before the Reading game.

Paddy McCarthy.

No there was a piece of us being in contact over Kjaer in the Metro and another London paper.

we're gonna tear them a new one!!!

Simon Peach works for the Press Association, so as such engages in less tittle-tattle and fabrication of stories that aren't there. He speculates and discusses as he is a Saints fan and so likes to do so from time to time, but he doesn't make a report if there is no truth behind it. So no, he doesn't chuck names around like mad - but when he reports something, it is pretty damn reliable.

http://hobnob.royals.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=1 Very different to the ridiculous amount of gloating and arrogance shown late last season and throughout the summer. How did their "rush in and buy early" transfer policy work?

Yes I agree it isn't a nice culture and we should do better do avoid it.

Spurs are beating Villa 2-0, goals from Mason and Parker. So unless Villa win, and Saints do something stupid - we go into the next stage.
