I'd consider him as an Archer replacement. Stewart and Larin will be rotated, leaving Ballard as another option. Would probably make a small profit signing him and selling Archer.

You are aware we sold him to Orient aren’t you?

I’d be disappointed planning for Bazunu.

Whilst I agree with your comment, I do wish they'd concentrate on the ongoing game they watch, and leave their old storylines for other occasions. It's not the first time (they) have missed a goal whilst blathering on about something much less interesting (and occasionally ) non-Saints. Interesting comment was from the legendary Kenneth Wolstenholme; .." a good commentator should say.. as little as possible and concentrate (on what's happening) in the game ."

Read your post and it dawned on me why this doesn’t feel like a real World Cup; we’ve not had the official song yet. From the first WC I remember we had ‘Back Home’ and it’s got progressively worse since. Your post has answered it. So it won’t feel ‘proper’ until I see the squad on a TOTP equivalent singing “ John Kettley is a football man, and so is Michael Fish”. (Both could be in the squad as far as I’m concerned- if still alive - more likeable than some of the cunts).

The difference now is that for the first time in years we have a manager who players want to play for. With a different manager, I doubt that Peretz would have wanted to stay.

True

Whilst Im against Adams stance on the current situation, Id be devastated if he left. He is a class commentator and does want the best for Saints. Adam and Jo is always a good listen.

On closer examination you can see that (Dom) was 21 in May, and already had 20 games for Young England sides (U17-U20) between 2022-2024. His 3 loan-outs saw him get game time on 45 occasions before those two unfortunate freak injuries. At two of those clubs he was used as a sub. for one of their regular strikers. Also he is not "so short" as we have been led to believe. He was listed at 5' 10" tall when signing for Orient. who used him as their first choice striker and scored 23 times in 40 games last season. I don't see him as a front line striker, but alongside / behind a Stewart, or Larin, he could be a useful addition to our strike force, much as Adam Lallana was when paired with Rickie Lambert back in the day. Orient's survival was entirely due to his goal tally, and they will be glad of the income when he eventually signs for a higher level club. As I noted in my opening post, I believe that in the chaos of last summer, he was simply " overlooked" by the people who called the shots, and who had no knowledge of his record with the club, and saw him as " a recovering young player " who might not contribute to the cause. I'm glad that he had such a good season, but would be mindful that he might be a force to reckon with (in the Championship) - if we don't get him back - someone else will.

Sorry but how many times have we seen this over the years? Saints putting things out there and not delivering. Personally I'm plannimg for Bazunu and then anything that happes means I'm not disappointed

Restore the mines!

Impressed at your age Whitey. Hope your crew mates are made of sturdy stuff

A judge cannot sentence if a jury finds not guilty.

Will depend on the judge as with all cases

He is desperate to be relevant

He spouts so much pure shit it is unreal. This not in response to his views on Saints, but the sycophantic mess he constantly comes out with. We are a few days way before he reminds us that Rashford single handedly fed the kids which should ensure he starts the opening game

Killing

Absolutely, and we need to build down the spine. Peretz and Larin would be a superb start, and may influence one or two of the players mulling over a departure. Peretz, the best keeper in the division, would be clearest message are going for a serious auto push!

Watched it last night. Excellent, as always.

Is he going to Liverpool?

Henry Winter showed himself up during the spygate stuff, so now he's reporting on the world cup it's fun to read his nonsense. Apparently the England team has discovered the weather forecast

The bin throwing was impressive, having watched years of hooligans being unable to throw plastic chairs 5 yards to see bins being thrown that distances tells me all is not lost.

Don’t be so neanderthal. It’s the 2020s for God’s sake!

Episode 383 of Total Saints Podcast is out now. The summer break lasted about five minutes, so Martin, Steve, Glen and Alfie are back to react to another ridiculous week at Southampton Football Club. Since the League Arbitration Panel’s written reasons were released, we’ve had the club statement, Dragan Solak’s video and Tonda Eckert’s own message to supporters. The end result appears to be pretty clear: Tonda is staying, nobody publicly loses their job, and Saints are trying to move forward as if it’s business as usual. On this week’s episode, we talk through whether that is the right call, whether Dragan has chosen pragmatism over a clean slate, and whether this is now the start of a proper siege mentality heading into next season. There’s also plenty on the parts that still feel unresolved: the pressure placed on junior staff, the lack of obvious accountability, the damage done to the club’s reputation, and the FA investigation that could still change the picture again. We also look ahead to what comes next, including the retained list, season tickets, possible new contracts and the kind of summer Saints now need if they are serious about going straight back up. Later in the episode, we discuss the Saints Women departures, including Atlanta Primus, Aimee Palmer and Tara Bourne, and look ahead to Ryan Garner’s world title fight at St Mary’s. Interested to hear where people are now with Tonda staying. Are you behind it, still angry about it, or just at the point where results next season will decide everything? 🎧 Listen Here 📺 Watch Here
