East Kent Saint

That was he ! Chelsea seemed to get through a number of keepers at the time .

The steaks I’ve had in America were excellent mainly because they know how to cook them . In GB you often get a beige steak which may be a good piece of beef but has no visible cooking marks on it ! The American restaurants tend to use an oven grill so the steak comes out nice and dark on the outside but pink in the inside . The only problem is that their steaks are so large it takes 2 days for my body to get over it 😄

So who was the keeper with a long name that did play for Chelsea 😄

I meant to say Donnarumma of PSG ! Didn't he play for chelsea ?

Wasn't the Inter keeper a Chelsea player ? I thought Arsenal did well , on another night they would got on the score sheet early ....

I think the rule was introduced to stop attacking players hanging around the 6 yard area. If you watch old games in the sixties when goalies could carry the ball to the edge of the penalty area all the players rushed up the other end to contest the ball from the keeper. The new rules changed all that

and like some other teams failed to sign a striker 😀

So Pep might get a bit more relaxed 😁

He said the players were suffering for a lack of confidence which is difficult to restore

I accidently saw Saints on Motd ! Vardy stepped back in our box and waited for the cross and gleefully banged it in for the first , no one was near him . Sums up our defence all season.

Their main failure yesterday was highlighted on Motd ie they failed to shoot when a shot was on . Taking another touch or crossing the ball or laying it off for someone else to shoot . They need a touch of shoot on sight Pelle !

Saints were going down months ago , we just kept hoping they would win a match or at least get a point 😄 . The Titanic disaster was due to poor design , a switch to cheaper steel to save money , a bunker fire that wasn’t delt with before it sailed from Southampton , which affected the strength of the steel plates that were hit by the iceberg . So total mismanagement leading to failure ………

A disaster of a season , Titanic rerun 😄

Stats show Saints way ahead in allowing shots and shots on target plus letting in 80 goals so far , which they have done before when previously relegated ! Plus Kane has scored only one less goal in his league than Saints as a whole 😄 . So looking bad for Saints in El Crapico as it’s apparently now know as 😁

This implies they had a plan ! It is more like “ we can sell xyz and buy abc” but failed to buy abc so we ended up with stu instead .

I found the whole saga of footballers wifes going to court rather sad also a poor image for our justice system what the hell are they doing trying this trivia when they have years of backlogs . The whole world has gone mad .

It would be good to see Palace do well in the final , unfortuately finals don't always live up to the hype. I really enjoyed it when Wembely was closed for reconstruction and England played around the country . Time for the semi finals of the FA Cup to have separate venues again with just the final at Wembely ( shit place) ie the area around the ground that is .

Scored 59 goals as well , those were the days ........

City were pretty boring in their semifinal all tippy tappy , even Grealish has been coached out of any self expression . Got a couple of dives in though 😄 Forrest were more entertaining although they had Saints disease of failing to score any chances . Not expecting a great cup final really unless Palace repeat their semi performance but we know semi finals often are the best matches.

Former Chelsea and Manchester United coach Eric Ramsay is on Southampton's shortlist for their next head coach. (Sky Sports)

Stephens scores from a Manning assist , a unique statement this season 😄

He will and if he is Saints will be in Div 1 the following season 😄

Adams scores again , not spotted him.scoring lately

To be fair there is no other country I'd prefer to live in or football club I would support instead of Saints but I am 70 😄
