My local team where I live! Have been to a few home league games this season, exciting times for them. Think I am right in saying they have never been this high before. 

My niece lives there and couldn't get a ticket so she paid for a live stream! She's also a U's fan (Cambridge..) so hoping for them too and keeps an eye out for Saints' results to say the right things to me. 🙂

Poor from the commentator. I was expecting him to work this into it: “ Lisa Stansfield, Gracie Fields, Cyril Smith , we’ve given your boys a beating ..” 

They probably don't need the reminder about Cyril Smith beating boys.

Chelsea v Leeds a bit boring after saturday ! Chelsea players put a bit of effort in for a change ( bet Liam is fuming) too many Chelsea players arguing the toss when penalised Neto one of the worst offenders , perhaps a few yellows would have sorted them out ? Leeds had the chances but not a reliable striker , Calvert-Lewin just not converting chances as at Everton . Overall a bit boring to watch Chelsea tippy tappy , can't see them beating City .

Leeds did Leeds things and chose not to win at Wembley, again 😅

Too much dramatics from the Chelsea players for my liking. Dropping to the pitch and thrashing about as if they had been shot. Pathetic. Refs want to dish out a few more yellow cards for the drama queens. Wasn't there some mention of a sin bin being introduced into football for the divers? I would hate to see too much of anything US based infiltrating our football but it might be what's needed. City will find beating Chelsea a sight easier than beating us.

Lad just did his ACL - unless there was a prior incident during the match, the Wolves fans calling him a wanker and a shit cunt seems needless and rather unpleasant

Then again, based on other Wolves fan behaviours, probably not surprising. AA would be advised not to miss any sitters from 5 yards up there

Jeez. What happened to applauding off an injured player, indicating a hope for a quick recovery?

I believe Sholing are Division 7 and Winchester City Division 8.

Thanks.

Good luck to Winchester in their playoffs.

This presumably is the same Winchester club that Saints signed Terry Paine from.

I had a read about the club on Wikipedia. Interesting to see they were formed in 1884. Seems strange that Winchester had a football club before Southampton.
