East Kent Saint

Not forgeting Saints turned them round from goalless wonders to free scoring form team ha ha !

Bloke was found not guilty , by direction of the judge , this week after his wife died in a 4’ deep swimming pool . He being only witness , had taken out 7 life insurance policies on her over the last few years , was on widowers dating app 7 days after her death and the injuries could have been due to CPR attempts etc . Had changed his name , made his history up BUT walks free. Another example .....

He was pretty tired after his Covid dose !

Well Cricket in India hasn’t got it right and Rugby Eng v Wales didn’t get it right either

Not confirmed yet but getting a bit of flack , couldn't be worse than Taylor could he ??

I wonder how much Matt believes in all this or he started off making a point and now can't stop ! His latest Tweet is fairly innocuous bearing in mind the man who died had a long term heart condition and was fitted with a pacemaker so not so strange after all.

Unfortunately to stop Covid and more importantly prevent worse varients of covid a high take up on vacine is required . The damage to children from measles after the MMR jab was falsly said to cause autism shows the damage that can be done . That Dr that faked his research about MMR was supported by Trump and was / is still spreading his antivac message in America , that made Trump's latest stance supporting the Cov vaccine interesting. Polio has been nearly eliminated from the world not helped by some groups branding the polio jab a western plot to sterilise the local population. If not being vacinated only affected that person then that's would be their choice but it affects other people as well so it is important to inocculate as many as possible .

Agreed !

Derby takeover cancelled by current owner .....

3 points or FA Cup progress ? 3 points for me ! The FA Cup has been devalued by the big teams , reserve sides and for some reason “it’s a piece of silverware” to put in the cabinet attitude rather than a respected competition.

I thought he said the 2nd half plan wasn’t executed by the players ! In fact Brighton prevented our plan imho !

I thought he was prevented from using money by Xi who decided that Chinese business couldn’t export money to buy football clubs etc after all . GAO then had to borrow money outside of China to finance the deal .

I seem to remember when Poch and Koeman were in charge during a losing run they were said to have no plan B as well !

I think in the normal course of events the owner would be kicking arses and the manager/players might respond but what are the sanctions? He could sack Ralph but not the players and who would be manager now ? We are in the prem now but only a second rate manger would be take charge .

My point is who would want to manage Saints at the moment? No money so you can’t bring in your own support team as was the norm . No money to buy players that are better than the ones here already . You might get an old dinosaur manager on a one year contract or a total unknown from lower euro leagues but who do you think would come here , seriously ?

It’s no good changing the manager when what’s needed are some better players . Big Sam is saying they can’t really improve without a few better players. The chances of getting any better players with no money and with the club still for sale are slim indeed .

Forster just can’t get down to those , as we know but why wasn’t Vest marking Dunk ? All the sideways and backward passing was mainly due to Brighton getting back and defending in depth , cutting out options. We did look ineffective in the second half and a lot of head shaking etc at every mistake teammates made .

A classic , on live terrestrial TV , playing a team that can’t win , we were bound to play them back into form from our past history ! Brighton aren’t that bad , they set up after half time and defended well , saw redmond / Bertie were the main plan of attack and doubled up on it , to cap it all Lala finally played a good 90 mins for them !

Is having 2 men on the posts a corners in the same category as the long ball game ? They might be better employed than standing in the box watching Dunk head it in via a Forster no go area ha ha !

Players look good playing in a system that suits them , when they step up and suddenly asked to be lone striker or play left side rather than right side etc they look crap . Having said that selling teams hear Chelski and say GK that will be £70M please !

He’s come along way since his debut, described at the time as lightweight, no obvious position to play in etc on here ! MLT was , according to an “evening with” I attended , easy going , no fan of training or Hoddle , happy to be still paid if dropped so I didn’t get the impression he was over ambitious. After all Steve Williams didn’t do so well after his move to Arsenal !

VAR has slowed the game , spoiled celebrating and caused more controversy than the on field refs so far . Failed to solve penalty decisions and turned offsides into a ridiculous lottery based on parts of the body. Goal line tech works , no dispute .

Injury comebacks AND Covid recovery , I know people on here disregard Covid effects but other teams have shown that it is a major factor .
