He’s from Southampton isn’t he? One for the future maybe but doesn’t help us in the short term if he is someone we’ve got an eye on.

A below average Prem keeper? Surely you don’t actually believe that do you Chez? Surely someone like Alex McCarthy is a below average Prem keeper. Not a league and fa cup winning one like Schmeichel. I respect your opinion of course, it’s interesting hearing a different viewpoint as I believed him to be very highly rated.

Surely the quality of a signing is based on what he has acheived at his current club, not what he did in the past. 2 goals from 28 league and cup appearances from a striker is pretty disastrous.

Code works, nice one Gru

Wow, never thought they’d have that opinion of him. He’s been an incredible player for them, and would be very hard to replace IMO.

Is there a more local derby than that in the English football pyramid I wonder? (Not including teams that ground share) Have Saints always been involved with this or did we only just start up again recently? I know we’ve won it a silly amount of times before but figured we stopped entering it years ago.

Went to the game this evening, enjoyed it more than I thought I would, could feel the sense of occasion and the atmosphere whilst different was genuinely decent. Fair play to the Norn Iron fans for keeping singing throughout. The whole thing certainly put our piss poor match day atmosphere to shame.

That’s good, can’t wait to see him spend the season on the left wing then.

Looks a decent signing on paper - best case scenario he has a decent couple of years here then gets snapped up by one of the big 6. Worst case he’s another Djenepo. The cynic in me is curious why Gerrard didn’t try to take him to Villa if he was that good and the price that low 🤔

Got a weird feeling we’ll start at home to Liverpool. A winnable home match would be nice though against someone like Brentford or Brighton.

Booking a time slot at the tip, like we’re supposed to do, then turning up at your allotted time only to find a queue because the staff aren’t bothering to police it properly and are letting any old cunt in, so I needn’t have booked in the first place.

He was shocking. Will never forget it, at that point it was only my second ever away game and having only been to The Dell I was overawed by the size of SJP. Finally climbed all those stairs to the away section to step out and see us already 2-0 down thinking well that was a waste of time. Think it was the following year I went back and the game got called off when we’d already arrived in Newcastle due to snow. Haven’t bothered trying to make that trip again, fuck that.

Anyone that was unlucky enough to witness some of the defensive displays by Patrick Colleter will have seen some pretty atrocious individual performances. Im still scarred by my one trip to St James Park where I got there a couple of minutes late and we were already 2-0 down. He got hauled off at half time he was so shit.

Has never been good enough for the Premier League and if he does get a contract extension he joins the list of players like McCarthy, Long and Walcott that should be nowhere near our side. Almost makes me think we’re preparing for life in the championship by offering him an extension.

Was channel hopping on my iptv and came across some random match between Argentina and Italy being played at Wembley for some trophy I’d never heard of. Looked like a full house pretty much due to the appeal of Messi. Italy were shit, don’t know where that crap side was when we played them last summer.

I really don’t know, the basic view on it would be that they could get another drummer in, however we know what an incredible drummer Taylor was, and how integral he was to the band, as well as basically being a brother to Dave. Losing Kurt and then Taylor he might decide fuck it and spend the rest of his days in happy retirement spending time with his family. Dave could even go solo and be a drumming frontman. Cancelling their entire tour rather than postponing it is pretty serious business though and would have come at a huge cost, that in itself may point towards the end.

I didn’t realise you and Robsk were the same poster 🤣 Agreed, it’s one of the easier stadia to visit south of London for parking and transport, and holds a decent enough crowd to make it viable as a tour venue. Still holding out to one day see Muse and The Foos at St Mary’s. The thing I love about having gigs here is that I can be home in half hour rather than having to fight onto the tube, or train and have a few hours until I’m home.

I laughed at an MLG joke, am I ill?

They were incredible tonight. Not fair to call it the best performance this season though as Saints did set the bar ridiculously fucking low on that one. Bars were a shambles, my only gripe of the evening. That and sharing the pitch with mongs shouting blue army.

Cracking city for an away day!! Watch it end up being a fucking Tuesday night.

Another winners medal there for our most successful ever academy graduate.

What about Owen though trying to say Liverpool are still the best team in Europe despite not winning the PL or the Champions League tonight.

Beautiful

Courtois has been immense tonight

get in!!
