Very enlightening. And it’s clear to see that is the approach Rasmus would have pitched to Solak.

The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
Holmes_and_Watson replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
From Beeb... " I mean, the population of the UK was 58 million in 2020, now it's 70 million. That's 12 million people." However, data from the Office for National Statistics estimates, external that the UK's population in mid-2025 was 69.4 million, compared with 66.7 million in mid-2020. So, he's not far off the current population. He's out a fair bit on 2020. But would only have to go back a bit to make the same points. Considering all the other, far more objectionable things he said, calling him out on the figures seems odd. I'd have thought Starmer would be better served trying to recall how many others with links to child abuse he's endorsed, rather than try and deflect onto someone sharing his views. -

In one of my local, far from league football games, our 'keeper blindly passed out from a pass back. Had he looked, and hit the ball more than half way, he'd have noticed his full back taking a drink and finishing a chat with the manager. Needless to say, it got intercepted, they scored and we lost the game. That was a few seasons back, and none of those involved, including the manager, were long for the club. One of the most infuriating goals I've watched. So like us to sign the professional equivalent. - Today

Desperate to show that race never enters his head, SOG falls straight into the colourblindness is racism trap. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/culturally-speaking/201112/colorblind-ideology-is-form-racism Embrace multiculturalism SOG, instead of worrying over which bandwagon to jump on.

Listening to that, they are in huge trouble - regardless of whether they stay up. 8min on just discusses the training ground costs and wage/PSR/TV money side of things.

Saints v Leicester FA Cup 4th Round - Saturday 14th Feb 3PM
St. Ciervo replied to St Chalet's topic in The Saints
Peretz must start. There is no point giving the others minutes. Peretz is still shaking of the rust and is clearly becoming an integral part of the team. Let that happen. But enter Tinkering Tonda... -
No rolling! That is dangerous!

Rolling additional year?
-
Tough call. If he can stay healthy for more than a month and keeps on this pace, we have to extend. No matter what we do, send the contract and all other communications over in bubble wrap.

Graham Baker was an excellent player. LocaL lad, and like Channon, left for a hiatus at Man City and came back. We were discussing him the other day (prompted by Larin’s swift debut goal), as we believe he scored the fastest ever debut goal - 58 seconds, v Blackpool at The Dell, 1977.
-
Curious as to what the club’s stance is going to be in regards extending him. obviously it’s a delicate balance given the injury history. Equally if he stays fit and continues chipping in you risk someone swooping in and we’ll be left with egg on our face.

Did I miss something? What happened to McC? Splinter infection? Spa injury? Strained a wrist while counting free money? -
We feel his pain!

As TSP discussed the other week… none of our players are signing contract renewals atm. Another radiation of SR’s disastrous tenure.

Is he to replace Baz -
I'm not seeing the lack of pace others are, but maybe I just need to see more of him. I worry more about lack of size, but he seems to do alright regardless. I think he's better suited in the middle than out wide, particularly from what I saw in preseason. If we wanted full rotation for this weekend something like Edozie - Matsuki - Robinson behind a striker would be my go.

Ratcliffe should apologise… for getting his facts wrong. The population hasn’t grown by 12 million from 2020 to 2025. The figure is 2.7 million. -
We need to follow Scotland's lead... they've been doing it for years....

Would now be a good time to dig out that @Matthew Le God post telling us not to fret when we signed Norwich's laughing-stock 3rd keeper as there was no chance he'd ever get anywhere near playing...? 🎣 You just know how this season is going to pan out... #sosaintsy -

EFL to vote on extending the Championship playoffs

Here's a radical idea... How about the best 3 teams over 46 matches get promoted...? #callmeoldfashioned -
EFL to vote on extending the Championship playoffs
Dark Munster replied to badgerx16's topic in The Saints
It's a load of bollocks. Unless we finish 8th next season, in which case I'm all for it. No seriously, keep it as is with 3 to 6 in the playoffs, but reward the higher finishers by having 5th at home to 6th in a one match eliminator (extra time and penalties if necessary). Winner plays similar one-off away in next round against 4th, and winner of that plays 3rd at Wembley. Simples. Won't happen of course, far too logical and fair. -

Signing a backup keeper who's already injured. Resale value aside, the most SR move possible. It really is slim pickings when you want someone who speaks English, is ideally already in the country/doesn't need a visa, and has played to a decent level. You can't get PL keepers in on emergency loan to the lower divisions, so any worst-case stopgap loan would be from the Championship and below (and how many Championship clubs would want to do us a favour?). Is a George Long or a Jamie Jones who's been training with the side a better bet than whoever we can get in the door on loan from L1 or below on a couple of days' notice? Hopefully we never have to find out. -
Saints v Leicester FA Cup 4th Round - Saturday 14th Feb 3PM
OnceaSaintalwaysaSaint replied to St Chalet's topic in The Saints
Exactly, so try to keep the same team. Peretz stays in goal since McCarthy is apparently having surgery. Save Stewart and if Welington has a tight hamstring, then he can't be risked, but otherwise put out the best team. Start with Larin. Start with Matsuki (he was good against Leicester) and play a back 4. We're starting to feel comfortable with this formation. -
Thomas Frank is not coming to Southampton. 😂
