Would normally take a point away from home, huge disappointment though that having taking the lead quite fortunately MP makes us sit back and defend the lead for the rest of the match, and FF once again drops us points this season by showing what a slow and average keeper he is.

Some run that by Gabbi, can’t be too harsh on long as the ball was ever so slightly behind him

They could have an 81 year old in goal and he still wouldn’t be the worst keeper on the pitch.

Amazing few days despite the result. Seeing Saints play in one of the most famous stadia in the world was incredible, and the ground was every bit as stunning as I imagined. Remember having to climb those stairs and then the narrowest concourse I’ve ever seen!!

Glad to not lose but it hardly papers over any cracks, everyone can see how absolutely average we are. MP is looking the wrong appointment with each match that passes. SD spared our blushes with that goal line clearance. FF is dog****, but will still be in the squad next week. Ref absolutely bottled the red card decision, no consistency whatsoever. #welimpon

"....you do not keep out a Rickie Lambert penalty...." One of my all time favourite pieces of football commentary. Loved watching those goals again, funny how despite being there for most of them only a few seem to stand out in the memory. That cross to Lambert at the back post tactic worked a charm so many times. Our "free kick specialist" could learn a thing or too from SRL.

And people wonder why some of us choose to boo him. Complete and utter unprofessional knob

I'm amazed SRL hasn't got a club at the moment. Surely he'd walk in to any League 2 or National League side if not higher. Surprised Eastleigh haven't taken a punt.

Surprised Tottenham weren't higher tbh.

I remember Shane Long scoring from a corner last season, can't remember against who though. Possibly West Brom?

I agree with your point about moving the away fans around the corner to blocks 1,2 and 3, but unfortunately for us as far as St Mary's is concerned this can't happen due to the executive boxes. This is where stadia like Pride Park and the King Power have the advantage and have been able to move away fans. Placing the the away fans where they are was done with the best intentions but unfortunately we're stuck as it is for the foreseeable without construction work.

Been going to watch Saints since I was 8 in 1993 but cheers for your suggestion of going to watch Pompey, I can kindly tell you where to go on that front.

More simple than all of these suggestions, get relegated. Go back to a more hardcore of supporters, it would get rid of the plastics and day trippers, and tickets will be cheaper. Going to games was a hell of a lot more fun in the EFL. Unfortunately St Mary's is now just one in many soulless Premier League stadia. Would help if we had a better songbook too by the way, droning out OWTS for the hundredth time per match is no fun, neither is having to sing about *insert player name* hating Pompey.

Wish I was as optimistic as some people on here, winning 1-0 against a truly awful Palace and suddenly we're in a position to turn over United!? VVD or not I still expect to get soundly beaten by them, I'd absolutely bite your hand off for a point but won't hold my breath.

Putting my traditional and personal views about Wembley usage aside, I think they've made a massive mistake in using Wembley rather than another venue this season. Surely players of opposing teams are going to raise their game when they play Spurs as its naturally going to feel like a cup final, and every player dreams of playing at Wembley. Not sure why away fans have been given such a small allocation though, perhaps to nullify that cup final atmosphere from visiting fans.

Funny that the people criticising the booing for VVD are the ones sat behind a computer screen rather than spending the cash to go watch the team. Our "captain" handed in a transfer request a year after signing a new contract, completely disrespecting the club, had this secret meeting with Liverpool, yet gladly took his millionaires wage that those of us with menial jobs contribute towards by giving our money to watch Saints, buy shirts etc etc whilst he probably can't wait for the next transfer window so he can leave, yet the fans that boo are apparently out of order? Those moaning about it are probably the sort of people that would catch some bloke banging their mrs but rather than punch him would offer him a cup of tea.

It was because of ****e like that last season that I gave up my ST, can't believe we've actually gone backwards compared to the dross under Puel. we look so weak in midfield, we miss Wanyama and Morgan terribly. Romeu is good but he just isn't on the same level as those two. We need some strong 6ft+ burly black guys in the middle as our team of short arses just don't cut it. JWP wouldn't get a look in at most othe teams, it's only as he is the poster boy for our academy that he features. Davis is aging and clearly going backwards, and Boufal is the most ineffective waste of money this team has had. if MP can't get this squad working together and producing some results we will be fighting relegation this year for sure.

Standard substitution, take Gabbi off for another striker. CHANGE THE ****ING SYSTEM MP YOU FOOL.

Deservedly behind. We look no better than last year, has Gabbi even touched the ball?

The new mania code is '1moreweek' mate

The celebrations when that goal went in were amazing, we were unlucky to lose that day. what an awful way to lose a child, glad that he and the mrs are finally finding peace.

Classic Forster

Should each be down to 10 men. Thought this was meant to be sold out?

SM was dead for me, signed up to the free trial on Surf Easy VPN and HD now seems to be working perfectly.

Can't argue with this, more deserving than KK.
