Could have got a good rebound goal off his belly at least 😁

Yes he is , I’m happy ex Saints find their level and do well but he never did it for Saints so he is gash . Scoring in open play has become even more difficult in the Prem these days .

Totally unnecessary in my opinion , the ex owner should be taking a bigger hit , all he got was a 3 year ban from EFL clubs . Should be a lifetime ban plus fines .

It's frequently quoted that promotion to the Prem is worth £100 m. So I don't think anybody will be buying Lampard for a figure much less than that.

Phil Kite (good rhyming slang in Bermondsey) 3-2

2-2

Bart? 😁

Alan Blayney?

3-2 😢

Neil Moss?

A while back Farage put out a promotional vid saying that you can’t trust a Tory. He is happy to welcome into his party people he says that we can’t trust.

Agreed. As the previous incumbent couldn't figure out how to play well against teams that leave space, he should get credit for that. It clearly isn't a given, must have been partly due to his coaching and tactics?

Personally, in my time as a supporter, would bank on Gennoe (pre-LCF), Katalinic, Shilton, Flowers, Niemi, Boruc and Ramsdale being responsible for us winning 1-2 on Saturday. With Wright, Keller, Jones, Taylor, or perhaps Beasant, still a good chance of hanging on to the win. McCarthy, Forster, Stekelenburg, Davis, Wood, Grob (depending on the odds), Burridge, Wells, probably settle for a 2-2 draw. Otherwise spot on.

I certainly don't disagree with what you say and the first goal is a prime example of that. We have an error prone back line and a substandard keeper so yes not a great combination but there are a few on here who seem to want to criticise him for every goal conceded.

Some may do, but mostly what I see is people continually saying “could Bazunu do better there?”. And that’s where we are with Baz, he has built up a back catalogue not of complete howlers but so many occasions when you tend to think a slightly better keeper would be keeping the ball out of the back of the net more often. For all of our goals against Millwall, they came about because of poor defending. I think most people recognise that, it’s just frustrating when the last line of defence seems to offer such weak resistance so consistently once the defence is breached.

If they were both marking the same player that would suggest one or other was wrong, rather than both.

Not the Keegan you’re probably thinking of. The data bods have crunched the numbers, reviewed real world permutations, added a healthy pinch of “if it ain’t broke…”, looked at cross correlations of elite world sport and leadership, hence Mr Bradley was at Staplewood all weekend. Don’t shoot the messenger.

I think Trump is pardoning / commuting the convictions of so many fraudsters because, as a fraudster himself, he doesn't think they have done anything wrong.

Birmingham City gave me one of my most embarassing moments as a Saints fan when our brilliant fans started a chant of "just a small town in Villa" possibly the worst chant i've ever heard, please dont shame our club by trying that again. As for Birmingham themselves, another load of big mouthed wannabe hardmen who turn into hide and seek world champions whenever they know the DEF are in town. Think they're hard men but ever seen them try to take on Romsey and the infamous Romsey Yoof? Ever seen them strolling around Southampton unchallenged? Course you haven't, they wouldn't dare. We never even got a mention in their book because why would you want to tell stories about cowering in pubs hiding from the DEF? Zulus, dont make me laugh. More like Tutus and i dont mean Desmond. Cant see anything other than 6/7-0 and Damien Downs to score

They are both really poor at defending, full stop. Manning never cuts crosses out as he doesn’t get close enough to wingers. If I was the keeper and would go fucking mad at him every game. Stephens is a ball watcher who is always losing his man in the box, but apparently he’s a good lad in the dressing room so that doesn’t matter.

Did I really read Keegan being suggested as a realistic choice up there for manager? Or did the heavy sarcasm pass over my head? Farke has two games left at Leeds apparently. I wonder if we give Tonda the next two...

No way can you blame him for the disallowed goal. It was a terrible header back from Stephens. In fact I don't think Stephens had any idea where the header was supposed to be going. I'd say he should definitely do better with the first one but that's about it. As for the third goal - Manning shouldn't have even been in that position in the first place. It's actually Mannings poor marking that leads to there being too many players in that area. I don't rate Bazunu but I do find it funny that people will blame him for literally everything even when some of it clearly isn't his fault.

Probabaly a bad choice

Typical Project Manager response, can’t think for themselves 🤣

Other than the last sentence, isn’t that exactly what we need? For me there is only one major contributing factor to our upturn in form and that is Leo. He has settled in and upped his game. We were back to being not very good without him on Saturday and lost to a team that, I believe, a decent manager makes changes to stop them closing us down every time we try to get the ball beyond the back line.. and we win.
