Saint-Armstrong

Now on the Saints OS.

Having a medical with Swansea.

New Years' Honours List: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-30633687 OBE for James Corden... ffs.

http://prosoccertalk.nbcsports.com/2014/12/30/sneak-peek-the-southampton-way/ I'd love to see the full version of this!

Here's some tweets I just posted with the assistance of statistics provided by The Telegraph. No team has been better at defending set-pieces in the 2014/15 season than #SaintsFC , who have conceded just twice from set-pieces so far. #SaintsFC have hit the woodwork 9 times so far in the 2014/15 season. Only #MCFC have hit the woodwork more times. They've hit it 11 times. #SaintsFC have put in more tackles than any other Premier League sides, so far making 441 tackles in the 2014/15 Premier League season. #SaintsFC defender @Nathaniel_Clyne has made 78 of those tackles, more than any other player in the Premier League this season. #SaintsFC frontman @GPelle19 has had 59 shots in the 2014/15 season to-date, more than any other Premier League player. #SaintsFC playmaker Dušan Tadić has put in 119 crosses so far, more than any other Premier League player so far in the 2014/15 season. No team have dropped less points from winning positions than #SaintsFC, who have dropped just two in the 2014/15 season - against Chelsea.

The envelopes are indeed the player's allocation of tickets.

Am aware that MLG flagged this up in the Elia thread, but doubt many people are checking that now... feel free to merge later.

I didn't know non-Saints fans could get in the home ends. How've you managed that, 9-3?

@Nathaniel_Clyne: Disappointed I can't be involved today big game to miss but I'll be back soon good luck to the lads today #WeMarchOn #KeepMeInYourFantasy

Brilliant, bravo.

Eljero says on Twitter that he watched today's game and "can not wait" to pull on the stripes.

"He cannot beat a man" - Really?!
