dubai_phil Posted 1 April, 2011 Share Posted 1 April, 2011 I've spotted an outbreak of Rumsfeldism's tonight on here, no idea where they have all come from so with the big month coming up, time for an "I told you so Thread" What are the Unknown Unknowns that could affect or run ins - c'mon gang let's get all the worries into one place so they don't mess up other threads. Me Injury to Rickie Would mess up our whole style of play at the moment needing a tactical rethink at the wrong time of the season (and NO this isn't a debate about RL's effectiveness, just a what else COULD go wrong. We're Saints FFS apart from last March at Wembley we are expecting things to go wrong ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted 1 April, 2011 Share Posted 1 April, 2011 An injury to Rickie would be devastating, mainly because we don't have anybody of his ilk that's a suitable replacement. Similarly, an injury to Lallana would be equally as harmful, especially after losing Chamberlain for what is rumoured to be the remainder of the season. The loss of Fonte would leave us exposed at the back too. Whilst Seaborne and Martin are more than capable, JF is a class above and I don't think people realise how fortunate we are to have a player of his calibre plying his trade in League One at our club.

Badger Posted 1 April, 2011 Share Posted 1 April, 2011 Any Sunday tabloid expose of wrongdoings...Adkins found doing a 'Max Moseley',or wrapping a car round a lamp post at 3am whilst under the influence,accompanied by some tart called Tina from Derby Road.Could have a destabilising effect.

SNSUN Posted 1 April, 2011 Share Posted 1 April, 2011 A riot in Southampton, over the rising cost of a tin of Spam, between students, botanists and greengrocers, spills onto the St Mary's pitch after the big gate is left open by a hapless groundsman. Rising from the directors box, as if with a halo of light behind him, is Cortese who begs for calm. Tins of Spam's replacement meat, Spum, are thrown at Cortese, who ducks, and one tin knocks a nearby candle and burns St Mary's to the ground. Saints are forced to ground share Fratton Park, and our good home form is shattered. It could happen... though I hope it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that I sentence you to 2 weeks of non stop listening to Celine Dion's greatest hits over and over and over until you are led out in front of the Northam to sing "It's all coming back to me" at the final home game of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 1 April, 2011 Share Posted 1 April, 2011 Unknown Unknowns: Our direct rivals. We don't know about their unknown internal workings. Either that or Dan Harding, Lee Barnard and Dean Wilkins are caught up in a scandalous three in a bed scandal with scandalous scandalness. With added Scandal.... for our pleasure.

NorthamSteve Posted 1 April, 2011 Share Posted 1 April, 2011 Us getting beaten/drawing AT ALL in the next 10 games and fans getting on players backs and making it more pressurised. - Especially at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jam Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 I'll go for the obvious - injury to Lallana. He seems to get injured a bit as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericofarabia Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 Don't concern yourself about The Unknown Unknowns (I thought this fred was going to be about a new upcoming group I hadn't heard of) ..... just stick to Controlling the Controllables (yet another great name for a band by the way!!) and we'll be fine. It's as simple as that umm Simple as that ... yet another great band name!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Tina's not the sort of girl to go bleating to the tabloids. Sharon on the other hand is quite a different matter.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minsk Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 it will go to the last game of the season, and we will have to win it to be sure of 2nd place. Saints will be 4-0 up at half-time. In the 52nd minute, just as Rickie is about to blast a home a penalty for our fifth and his hat-trick, a kamikaze pilot will fly his plane into the Itchen Stand. The resulting explosion will kill/injure most of our fist team and subs. The abandoned game will be replayed the following week; we will have to mostly play our U18s and will lose 3-0.
