To be fair, I'd have described Edozie as flimsy and lacking work rate until lately, where he's locked into Martin's system. Hopefully MB is not injury prone, given we only need him to stay fit for four or five months and contribute. We have other good wingers and could rotate quite easily.

There’s this guy at Lyon called Ainsley Maitland-Niles…

The change in the atmosphere as the season has progressed was well-illustrated by the fact Itchen North, Northam and Kingsland were chanting his name immediately after the fuck up and he responded later on with applause 👍🏻

Also suggests that the Saints commercial folks got the pricing right in the summer when we were all waiting to see what they'd do with STs and general admission - fair play, having seen some of the prices around the league (looking at you, Sheffield Wednesday) I think ours are pretty fair.

Four goals conceded in 10 games is really impressive stuff.

Should be a belting atmosphere

Also revealed that he told the squad and staff he’d decided they could all have Christmas off after the run of form, but that he was trusting them not to totally slack off when it came to today’s game. Fair play They’re now in at Staplewood every day between now and NYD

For the opener he also went 'ARRIBA, ARRIBA, ARIBO!'

Steven Schumacher is leaving Plymouth Argyle to become the new Stoke City manager. Nathan Jones to Plymouth just in time for December 29 @ St. Mary's?

In which case, those fans should be given free season tickets.

Leeds and Ipswich both play on Tuesday night (Sunderland and Watford away, respectively) so we'll go into this knowing if there's a chance to pull the gap back down.

FT: Watford 1-1 Saints

Fucking ballbags.

Holy shit, 3-0

Ryan Fraser has been really impactful since coming on

Well finished from Adams too. Nice little touch and then absolutely rifled it with his left

I mean, surely there's no chance (given he is a Cardiff fan) but his old assistant at Saints, Alan Sheehan, is currently the Swansea caretaker and the Swans' DoF is Paul Watson, who was the head of operations at Luton Town when old mate Jonesy was there...

Lyanco... Caleta-Car... Orsic... Djenepo...

Lots of noise now that he’s going to be named as the new Rotherham boss, perhaps as early as Monday/Tuesday. Was in the stands watching them this weekend.

Yeah, he did the double and then did the double again. Only Swansea manager to have won every game against Cardiff (of those who managed more than one or two derbies) They chanted at him a bit, early on today, I’m sure I heard some ‘Russell Martin, you know what you are’
