As I have said elsewhere, this tactic is now standard especially in the Premier League and only strong refereeing will stamp it out. Doe it happen as much in other leagues? Internationals?

That has become a common corner tactic at all levels of the game.

If anyone is expecting us to sign a much better goalkeeper whilst we are in the Championship then they are going to be disappointed. We are no longer dining at the top table. There are reasons why even a moderately talented goalkeeper like Ramsdale was loaned out to a Premier League team.

Is he much better than Bazunu? Our Charles will be off next year anyway so not sure what the appeal would be.

Can't argue with using SR's resources to get an automatic promotion and keep us in the PL. Oh wait...

There goes any chance of me getting sympathy for my sniffoos. Thanks a bunch with your thread hogging near death experiences. 🙂

Jelert and Long loans cancelled, Bree returns and Peretz brought in on loan. Minimal financial cost, doesn't tie us to anything long-term, improves the squad. That's the type of movement I'd expect in this window. (I still like Jelert and would want to see more of him, but he was supposed to be back from injury late last month or early this month and yet hasn't made a squad.) Bayern are disappointed he's only been playing in the cup. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/25691801.southampton-fc-linked-loan-move-bayern-munich-keeper/

I actually nearly died once from flu doctors told me if the temperatures had been 1 degree lower I’d be dead so I guess I have climate change to thank for still being alive. Swings and roundabouts

He came off injured.

Go!

They know their football I remember chatting to @giomagpie and he was one of the most intelligent people on football I’ve ever met. @blackandwhitefoamhandgeordie was a top lad too and he knew all there was to know about glovesmen having coached the goalkeepers Glipton Grasshoppers at U8 level.

Yep. Missed it once. Got proper flu, then pneumonia, several spells in hospital. Horrible experience. Haven't missed a flu jab since.

In 1995 for Alan Knights testimonial to slip the OB the DEF dug a tunnel from the secret meet point in Southampton to end up behind the police lines and arrive just before kick off at the fratton end. It worked a treat once word spread of our arrival the terrified skates ran onto the fratton park pitch to escape us. After the game in their desperation to get away from us they started to smash windows of local houses trying to break in and hid from their marauding local rivals. Dozens of skates were arrested that night for criminal damage such was their fear at being caught by the DEF. Funny how you don’t hear about that in their books

I moved over here a few years ago and had hoped to go to see a World Cup game in 2026. Well, fuck that!

He has probably struggled in the football goldfish bowl that is Newcastle. They bleed black and white up there and it can be suffocating if you aren't used to such a football mad city. Remember talking to @maggo who said some players would drive an hour outside the city on a day off just to breathe in less pressurised air. Ramsdale wouldn't be the first who just couldn't cope with the intensity of it, he may just suit a city that is less passionate about their club.

So perhaps he’ll stay longer than Wilcox. So that’s two days after Easter before he announces he’s off.

Brilliant. Call me names because you disagree with me / dont understand, then go home with nothing to say when asked a question. You have entered into a discussion you have no idea about yourself. Another one line wonder on this forum. As i said before, you need to understand the people behind these groups and what their true political ideologies and objectives are. A very reasonable hypothesis is that groups founded by people who openly call themselves Marxists or are supported by Marxist organisations are likely to be radical left wing groups. But you wouldnt know about that because you dont understand the topic you have got involved in, ironically.

I fucking hope not. Good night!

I’m still not sure you’re even real.

I use the word 'they' because I dont align myself with the radical left. I would suggest the use of that word is accurate. Should I use 'we'?! I would maybe recommend reading more about the people involved in this before calling me names. Its easy to find this stuff so maybe its you that doesnt understand the background to these groups. As I asked you before, what is the radical left then? The failure to crush other Left-wing extremists created Palestine Action The Truth About Black Lives Matter | The Heritage Foundation

They. its always the same with you. “Read a few more articles”. Nothing to say yourself.

And I'm the one who doesnt understand radical left. More recently they have tried to portray themselves as moderates but I suggest you read a few more articles about their original intentions.

Palestine action also, seems like it’s nothing to do with right wing or left wing politics, just an idealism that we should probably stay out of.

A classic example of the sunken cost fallacy.

ER don’t seem to me to be political. They have an agenda but it’s a bit different from politics.
