Merry Christmas everyone! And get well soon @SNSUN

Spending Christmas Eve in hospital with my youngest child, only to get discharged and go home, just in time for my eldest to vomit on me.

A great occasion. We won it after a penalty shootout. Watching Chris Marsden lift that triphy was a great loment for any Saints fan.

Used to love the walk to the Dell from the Haymarket Tavern via Plested pies !

Remember it well !

This for me. I seem to remember it was bloody chilly but totally worth it. Just had a quick look at the starting line up. I'd forgotten Neil Trotman ever played for us, let alone that I'd seen him score. Starting lineup: GoalkeeperBart Białkowski DefenderNeal Trotman Defender/Centre backChris Perry Defender/MidfielderDan Harding Defender/MidfielderLloyd James Defender/MidfielderMorgan Schneiderlin MidfielderDean Hammond Midfielder/ForwardMichail Antonio Midfielder/ForwardAdam Lallana Midfielder/ForwardRickie Lambert ForwardDavid Connolly Substitutions: Joe Mills for Adam Lallana 61 Papa Waigo N'Diaye for David Connolly 75 Paul Wotton for Joe Mills 83

I'm nursing a chest infection but I'm medicating it with Beechams All in One and 19 Crimes Red Wine and it's going pretty well so far. A Saints win on Boxing Day would make me feel even better. And I'm not drunk, but Scienza is better than Messi. There I said it. Anyway happy Christmas season to all you poor, long suffering fools, of which I have been one for the last 36 years. Don't worry, we'll win a trophy in the next ten years. I forsee it.

Merry Christmas one and all,

The argument isn’t that the current Government is good. It’s now an attempt to say the current lot aren’t as bad (by opinion) as the last lot. The shift in terminology says enough about how things are going already. Things will definitely get better in 2026…….

Yep, did that one as well. The famous Craven Cottage 'neutral' blocks were right next to our away support, and were almost entirely Saints fans. I'd not been quick off the mark with getting tickets so was in that neutral area - but only across a set of stairs from our lot. It was indeed an excellent, sustained rendition of OWTS. When we were losing, some old boy next to me was calling Adkins all sorts. I told him not to be so wet, and he grabbed me by the scruff of the neck, ha.

Cardiff away in 2013. Made further memorable by driving there from my then-girlfriend's dad's house - inside Whipsnade Zoo. A commanding 0-3 victory, whilst the Cardiff fans were protesting their ownership. I remember it as being Gazzaniga's first clean sheet, though further research suggests he got one in 2012-13 - i.e. the season beforehand. A Poch team, containing prime Schneiderlin, Lallana, Rodriguez and Lambert. Good times.

Enjoy chaps and chapesses

Sport Republic Out

Not necessary. My mum is bringing her large air fryer round and with our double one as well we've got everything covered. Just a minor annoyance really.

1977 we had successive 3-1 victories on the 26th and 27th over Cardiff and Charlton. there was a good following at Charlton , but we still didn’t fill much of that huge terrace.I seem to remember there being police horses inside the stadium ?

Attack

I remember being right down the front and it bloody pouring with rain , we always seem to take good support there

Fulham game in 2012 was at Craven Cottage. Late Rickie Lambert penalty to equalise. I remember it as an enjoyable day out.

If we called it a 3-4-3 then maybe people would get it a bit more. There might also be a case for a full back to go into the back three to make it more attacking (Roerslev?). As has been done many times in the past, e.g. Gary Neville for England. I think Ryan Bertrand did it for us previously?

Merry Christmas everyone. ☃️❄️🍷🎄🦌🎅🏻 😇

There will never be a u-ier U-turn than the previous govt u-ey u-turn in COVID, when they insisted on kids going back to school in January, only to change their minds after ONE day, this ensuring not only a damaging lockdown, but also that it went on longer because everyone had a day to sneeze and snot on each others kids before sending them home to their parents. Lethal consequences for some too. So it's going to take something more than adjusting a limit on some tax before they get close to u-iest.

May I recommend the Duck Toaster?

Seen a few of these, 4-4 away at Spurs would be my favourite. Frozen off at Charlton an hour before kick off would be my least favourite. Was that Fulham game the one at Loftus Road? Can't remember the OWTS but then again I can't seem to remember much nowadays.

My sympathies. A few years ago our oven packed up on Xmas day, luckily we relocated everything to the Mother-in-Law who lived less than 5 minutes away. Probably the only time I was pleased she lived so close.

Not at all. Hoovers can be expensive. If anything, a toaster as well is spoiling someone.
