  1. Beat us and they’ve pretty much wrapped up a champions league spot. 4-0 to Leicester I reckon
  2. To each their own I guess, me personally I’d rather we gave that transfer kitty to someone that actually knows what they’re doing, and has some kind of successful track record in this league. Let’s not act like Ralph hasn’t bought anyone in, Diallo, Adams, Djenepo and Salisu were on his watch and they’re not exactly pulling up trees
  3. He had a blip against Bournemouth, but yesterday he was back to his usual self. Would gladly see him sold this summer.
  4. Complete and utter nothing performance from us.
  5. Need to get him off, far too sloppy once more
  6. Stupid misplaced pass but good to see Vardy in pain the prick.
  7. One for you Turkish...
  8. Beat Fulham and draw with Leeds, lose the rest
  9. Can’t believe you’re writing this off as a bad day at the office. How many more are we going to have until people stop making excuses for him? If Ings hadn’t dragged us out the shit against Burnley we’d have been even worse off than we are.
  10. We’re screwed next season, this coaching team aren’t fit for purpose.
  11. If only we’d had a proper rest between our last game and now we’d be playing better. Oh wait.... That’s the end of that myth thankfully.
  12. Loving these retro jackets, they’ve made a pretty strong start to the partnership so far I’d say, look forward to seeing the new kits.
  13. My biggest issue with FlyBe, and I know it wasn’t only them, was the business model of charging for every little extra. Whilst they were handy for city breaks or commuting when it came to longer trips abroad by the time all of the baggage etc had been factored in it just worked out cheaper to go from Heathrow or Gatwick. If some decent operators now choose to offer holidays out of Southampton at a reasonable price they could do very well out of it. I’m sure EasyJet would probably get plenty of business from our locals with regular flights to places like Krakow, Bucharest and Riga, be a cracking option for a last minute lads trip for a piss up too.
  14. Funny one for me this. As someone who lives in Bitterne Park I’m heavily affected by being under the flight path. A lot of the support from the expansion came from people that won’t be subject to the noise of a flight every 3 minutes from 6am. The previously mentioned £5k noise improvement grant for residents will go some way to help but now that the approval has been given I’m expecting Southampton Airport to move the goal posts on that promise. You can’t triple glaze your garden though and with doors and windows open in the busiest summer months there’s going to be little that can be done for the noise. That being said it’s obviously great news for the city, and wider Hampshire area, and with the Solent Freeport could contribute to a very strong economy down here. Could well be a nail in the coffin for Hurn airport which despite their reach has always suffered from shocking public transport links, and their charging for every luxury policy. Wonder if we’ll see a new carrier take up residence at Southampton to replace Flybe? Guess any airline will wait until we’re well clear of Covid and travel restrictions before making any kind of deal.
  15. Typical Che!! It matters not, great result and a great fight back. should have been so much more comfortable though
  16. 4 points from these 2 games and we can enjoy the last few games and hopefully a cup final...
  17. Annoys me to think that if we were in the same position as West Brom facing 10 man Chelsea we’d have probably lost 2-0.
  18. Eh? We’re talking about the talent pipeline not being as promising these days as it once was, and our reserve and youth teams suffering as a result. Other Academies getting bigger with a far wider reach these days is hugely relevant to why we may not be seeing the number of gems come through as before.
  19. Probably doesn’t help that the likes of Chelsea have had their regional talent centres going for a few years now and have probably taken a few local gems that we would normally see come through our academy. Regardless of how famed our development path is it’s always going to be impossible going up against competition like that.
  20. Well at least we’re consistent across all our sides eh! Get Simon Clifford on the phone 🤣
  21. I know, but as stated we avenged that defeat at the King Power whereas United smashed us only the last time we met by that same scoreline. I know it sounds silly but I grow tired of everyone getting all misty eyed about 76 whenever we draw United in any of the cups. All it serves now is an embarrassing reminder that for a club of our size with some of the players that have come through all we’ve managed to achieve is one solitary major trophy in 135 years.
  22. Glad it wasn’t United again purely so we don’t have to put up with all the irrelevant 76 talk.
  23. Nice to reach the semis, quite comfortably too. Personally I hate that the semis are at Wembley but here’s hoping for a bit of good luck on the day.
  24. Just want us to get that 4th, so they can be just like Pompey even more so.
  25. To each their own. Would rather be able to look back on stories about how I saw us win the cup, rather than excite my grandkids with tales of the time we finished 17th in the league again.
