  1. Excellent to see another Saints striker dump the Sweaties on their arses.
  2. If this were to happen, it would be our biggest shock transfer since Keegan. Personally, I think his ego doesn't fit with the club values
  3. Have the club announced an unveiling date yet ?
  4. We are 12th. That means we are the last seeded team. The winner of the Swiss cup is not yet known. HTH.
  5. I had already looked through the second and third qualifying rounds and seen quite a lot of teams with higher coefficients.
  6. I had to call Southampton City Council Electoral Services yesterday and give them grief, because they sent me a letter saying I would only be on the Electoral register from 1st July (which I interpreted as meaning I get no vote in the EU refererendum despite registering in time). Seems this date refers to the 3-monthly published register update, not the eligibility to vote. My postal vote card will be sent tomorrow.
  7. According to Wiki, we are currently the last seeded team. Wow. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016%E2%80%9317_UEFA_Europa_League#Group_stage I would like to see teams local to me; looking at the third round qualifying line-up, this means Rapid Wien (AUT), Rijeka (CRO) and Luzern (SWI) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016%E2%80%9317_UEFA_Europa_League#Third_qualifying_round
  8. I am voting Brexit. I understand the fear of the the unknown, but the bottom line is that Britain's destiny is back in its own hands then.
  9. Yet he gave the ball away countless times. Not saying he is definitely over-the-hill yet, but he is a woeful midfielder. Woy just wants to keep playing him past his sell-by date, just like with Gerrard. Rooney has never delivered for England, and I dont see any evidence that he is about to start.
  10. Why is Kane taking the free kicks ? Shouldnt he be on the end of them ? F**k me, its like a kids team, where the kid who thinks he is more talented than all the others takes everything. Rooney should be dropped and the team learn to play without him. This midfield role stuff is utter b*ll*cks and is just Woy trying to find a way to shoe-horn in him
  11. Yes, I felt the same, and took great delight in the fact that Puncheon scored it.
  12. I was a Red Devil for the day, but today I feel dirty because they were sh*t
  13. Indeed; but its becoming such a yearly ritual that I am starting to think the club is either triggering it or encouraging it. I guess summet evisceration is part of their business plan. If they are delivering year-on-year improvement, why stop ? The summer break following a table drop will be interesting..I guess not much has changed since the Lowe days, except no dividend is being paid
  14. Well, we've done a better job in harnessing him than Red Bull Salzburg did, according to my work colleagues.
  15. B*ll*cks. Anyway, his contract has finished. Thank f*k.
  16. Managed to pick up both home and away kit shirts for 15 quid each this morning from online shop. Well chuffed. Did we have a 3rd kit this season, or was the green unusual enough that we didnt need it ?
  17. Lovren has the summer off... :lol:
  18. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3594485/Stoke-City-sit-bottom-champions-Leicester-billing-does-rank-season-s-Match-Day-running-order.html
  19. Come on. They were 15 points ahead of Sheff Wed. The play-off rules are an arse.
  20. But its true. Considering what has happened this season, I now doubt he will reach the heights of football management. He doesnt have that extra gear. He's a flat-track bully.
  21. Is that true ? Anyway, chuffed to bits. Our best season since 1984. Outstanding effort. Need a few contract extensions to be signed in the next week, if possible.
  22. This sounds to me like there are just loose ends to tie up before signing a new contract.
