He had two hands on the ball, and was fouled by the Burnley player tbf. Its irrelevant after that.

The BBC coverage of these olympics has been shocking tbh. A real let down. Don't worry though, your supporting socialism tax is going up to £150 soon

Nonsense Charlies, its called "Safe" standing these days. In no way, shape, or form, did terracing promote football hooliganism.

Are you including the burnley and Watford hand ball goal errors by referees in that stat?

You can blame Les Reed, Les Reed, and Les Reed for that.... although his pay packets have been bumper so everyone is happy right?

We're staying up, so it doesn't matter how prepared we are as fans

I actually think he is good after watching the first few games. Most of our key goal-scoring chances have been due to him and he is actually quite a good creator given how few chances we create. Looked good with two pacey wide men (that run with the ball) and someone playing off him.

Literally. The departure of a director of football should have zero effect on the first team between February and May. If it does then the situation is even more wrong than current appears. He does not pick the team or the tactics, and he has no impact on how the players train etc.... He should have been removed following Poch's exit and the summer of discontent.

Sadly Leslie wouldn't have got his bonus for that one... And he was too short sighted to see the potential in Kane.

Shearer was better than any current saints striker when with us. I would argue that Bale is better than our current wingers. Plus he was 17. Not entirely sure what you are taking so much issue with. Toby, Mane, Bale and Shearer would all walk into our current side?!?!

Bizarre thread. Easily one of our best players at the moment and trying every game.

Think this should be made into an actual poll please mods.

Potential to chose the two best british players of the last 30years.... and they get 5 mentions in total out of all of these posts. Default: Shearer Bale Additions Mane Toby. That is 4 players far above the current ability of our weakest squad areas. Others (but not exclusively): Morgan Wanyama VVD Clyne Oxlade Le Tiss Ball Channon Killer Lallana Lambert Fonte Keegan Shilton Team: Alex Bertrand, Toby, Stephens, Cedric Lemina, Romeu, JWP Bale Mane Shearer The possible change to this would be to drop Toby and stick Le Tissier in the middle for JWP/Lemina/Romeu.

Given the teams left in (and how completley **** we are) there is almost zero chance of us winning the cup... so lets nip that false hope in the bud right now. However, given the question. The answer is 100% cup win and relegation >>>>> survival. And that is a fact. The only thing better than the last 10 years would be having won the fa cup at the start of it.

We are going to Wembley. I had a funny feeling during the west brom game. After all the goal line clearances and woodwork. Bet on us beating wigan because we will.

For me it doesn't work in Chrome, just internet explorer. A rarity for sure.

I still can't understand why our fans are incapable of protesting against the board? As a fanbase, we have come around and realised where the real cancer lies, and yet we'd sooner jeer the manager than those who ultimately hamstring us as a club. Madness.

No its more fake news rubbish. The biggest part of that rubbish was that AOC was not part of the championship team!!

Fans of the club I imagine.

Lemina has decided to put in another of his garbage performances so far then

The irony is that this is the attitude that allows boards like ours to exist. Fan's are suckers who will just keep coming back for more. They are the only shred of loyalty in a business that just farms money for everyone else involved.

Unless things change, it will 3 from Saints, Stoke, West Brom and Huddersfield.

Somewhere in a parallel universe, saints are the world's biggest football club. Lets enjoy that feeling
