If you can't make money betting on the team you know the most about, why bet on any othes. I made a tidy sum betting on relegation under mope and then cashed out under Hughes before betting on us vs Swansea... Saints fans know the team better than the book makers, use it.

First 2 episodes of discovery have been pretty decent, although the 2nd episode started better than it ended, a tad anti climatic.

So, no deal Brexit it is? Best get my mortgage fixed before March!

Guan said we'd be stronger by the close of the window, and that is good enough for me. Although slightly concerning that there has been no wink emjoi. So far.

Japan have a great chance. Hopefully we can add another national medal to the Southampton family.

Feels like we are prepping for relegation by shifting expensive / dead wood players, and giving the youth a go. If we can do this and stay up then woohoo!

He's had 3 terrible managers, but he was also part of our best ever prem finish and won the euros. He's a good player and he has always tried when on the pitch. Some of our fans are a joke, only complaining... and do it all the time. Some perspective please, the vast majority of what has been wrong at saints was due to Reed. He has gone now and things will most certainly improve. The continuous slating of players that try is not required and does the club no favours.

Think he'll come good and hope he gets his chance. He and ings are our best to CF's. Make of that what you will.

I tend to agree with Adrian. However, if we were unlucky with injuries (say ings/hoj/redmond out long term) then I think we'd struggle to stay up. With cedric, bertrand, ings and lemina all fit under this manager we have a mid table team no doubt. We don't have that currently however due to injuries and suspensions. I think the fanbase forget that RH has dragged us away from the relegation zones whilst regualry having 3 or 4 of our best players unavailable each game... It's therefore time for some perspective please. Far better to play the long game and do the massive restructuring in the summer. I know that's boring and not very exciting, but it's a surer route to enjoying saints more in the future. If we spend now we don't get value for money and we gamble massivley on quality and impact.

The ex Bristol rovers manager?

Just getting up in NZ. Called a saints win in the pre match thread. Delighted none the less. Sounds like a solid performance. And good games from long and JWP, along with romeu and bednarek.

Any input on how to watch this in new Zealand?

Often when you think we have no chance we sneak a win. Just saying.

Tammy Abraham has turned down a loan to wolves but said he does want a permanent move. 16goals for the villa this year - CHDAJFU?

Agreed.

Hi Glasgow Saint

For real? This one isn't very observant. 3points of champions league to relegation fodder in 3 transfer windows....

I think Les Reed's poor spending decisions showed through as the difference tonight. That and the ref was a fecking bent bell end.

Ref has cost us this. Should be 9 men west ham losing 2-1 to a saints pen. He is a bend ****.

You really do struggle to make posts without insulting other saints fans.

Watched it down the pub with an arsenal mate. Seven balled him in front of a bunch of manc afterwards.... Quite a tidy afternoon Long live rabbit hutch.... Who the **** was les reed?

Les Reed left this club far far far too late. Hamstrung our potential and stopped us achieving our own Leicester City fairytail. All the fans that defend him are the ones that let the rot set in.

Not a very nice way to talk about his soldiers...

Honestly guys, tottenham are in 1st gear here. Its easy as anything versus us. If did actually score they'd just go whack a couple in at our end. We are ****e. Confidence is at 10below... Hope the new guy is up for it. At least he has no illusions.
