My main memory of the evening is Bally and Peter Storey (old Arsenal teammates) kicking lumps out of each other

Lol

Apparently, Hoedt has the same agent as VVD.

He wants European football, presumably Champions League, so if they get through their qualifier, I'd offer him the chance of a loan for the season ... to Celtic, obviously!

If Chelsea beat Utd, presumably we can play Utd on semi-final week-end

Agreed

Yes

In!

Bale made a couple of appearances at the end of the previous season. Debut v Millwall away was it? The Derby goal was his first though

Was just going to post this myself. Nice to have a well-informed article on a Saints player for once.

You should remember that we had a great January last year. From 1 Feb (when we lost to Swansea) I think we have 42 points from 36 games. Not quite relegation form but pretty close. That includes 16 games where we still had (subject to injuries) Toby, Morgan and Clyne playing for us. As an aside, I like the way Watford are ahead of Villa in the calendar year table, despite playing half the games!

I think Reuben had already been sold, in Lawrie's last season

Brendan has gone. Q

Good article comparing Mane and Rooney. Last paragraph makes an interesting point I think. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/sep/20/southampton-manchester-united-sadio-mane-tactics?CMP=EMCFTBEML853

Very good article http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2015/sep/17/man-utd-southampton-premier-league?CMP=EMCFTBEML853

Now available to anyone who has bought tickets in the last couple of years I believe

A lot of my mates are Rangers fans, some with over 50 years of watching them. They regard Caulker the same way we do Callum Davenport. One who thought we were certainties for top 8 has just put a bet on us being relegated. That's how bad he was last season, very different to what Villa fans said about Bertrand. Personally I've always thought him very poor and can't understand this signing at all. Hope I'm wrong

I and 3 other Saints-supporting family members are at the Test at Edgbaston next Thursday. Can anyone recommend a pub in Birmingham that will be showing the Saints game please?

Do you think any other top division side has scored over a quarter of its season's goals in 2 games, or 1/3 of them in 3?
