Does that put young Alex in libel territory?

Wouldn’t have thought so, it’s a technical detail probably most familiar to police/enforcemebt officers, motoring organisations, driving instructors and the courts, but leaving the scene is a distinct offence and set of penalties.

Love posts like this 😂 Genuinely intrigued why you think it’s Ankerson picking Baz and Downs each week? Are you blaming him for the poor quality of food and beer at the ground too? It’s all Ankerson’s fault!
I’m sure he has little involvement in any of it now he’s based in Turkey, we have a new DoF, etc.

 

Gavin is hit and miss still - some improvement but remains well off Champ standard and consistency overall. And you’ve only got to watch Downs with your own eyes…worst outfield player I’ve ever seen in a Southampton first team shirt, and that includes Ali Dia. Gavin back in the team I would strongly suspect is Rasmus’s influence - the only positive thing Still did was drop him but the goalkeeping situation has been a total mess for years. All they needed to do was loan him out and get a solid first XI keeper in for this level which McCarthy is a bit too old to be now. Not expensive, should have been sorted.

Ii would argue (and often have) that he is about average for this level. I've seen a lot worse this evening in the Premier League and to be honest none of the goalkeepers that we have faced of late has been better.

The only opposition keeper we have faced this season who I would say is actually worse than Baz is Ethan Horvath at Sheff Wednesday - an emergency loan from Cardiff after their only other senior GK got injured. But even then, I've also seen him make occasional saves of the kind that Baz has never been capable of.

He is not average for this level.

We disagree.
