Stripey McStripe Shirt

The bestest strike again. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cjd5r4x4vl4o

Exactly. Gives her enough time to make a cuppa afterwards too.

Think it was in the region of £12,000,000 when Shane Long signed. A long line of zeros there.

That'd mean we have to watch Saints for longer though...

Don't get too down, University Challenge is still on. McClelland is this week's fitty.

2-0 Saints. Time to pop our cherry.

Who remembers everyone's favourite S4E/SWF poster, Calvin? He was a good egg.

The Everton fans were very, very quiet even after they scored. I was expecting the whole ground to be a lot more toxic (even the Ashley Young sub didn't get them going for long), though listening to their fans around the ground afterwards, I think there was just a general sense of resignation of their demise. As Saints fans, I guess we've had that feeling in the past. Our fans were pretty rubbish too in all honesty. Difficult to get an atmosphere going with limited excitement on the pitch and lack of home atmosphere I guess. There weren't even that many renditions of OWTS, just the hilarity of "is this a library", "football in a library do do doo" and "we forgot that you were here" on timid repeat.

What's he said? My take aways from tonight: - Happy with Macca as our cup keeper, despite occasional shaky moments. - Undecided on Cornet. Glimpses of promise, but some frustrating moments. - BBD. Meh. - Lallana. An old prick, but a classy prick. - Dibling - he's alright. - A weird Saints fan behind me spent most of the match arguing with a 12ish year old in the home end. Was a bit weird. - Even weirder (which is an achievement) was the Pompey fan who presumably paid for a ticket, only to get kicked out after about 15 mins. - I'm sure the Everton pitch isn't flat. Definitely got a bit of a camber.

Anyone got any top tips on how to get back to town quicky after the match? Options as far as I can tell are 1) train from Kirkdale to Moorfields (will that be mega busy/impossible to get on?); 2) bus (no idea where from); 3) walk/flag a taxi

Lemina (Mario Jnr?) just put Wolves ahead v Newcastle.

Desperate to be just like us. Losing 3-0 at home on live TV to remain lingering in the relegation zone.

Forgot that it's harder to play after being awarded a penalty. Bit like the opposition going down to 10 men. Ref's have definitely got it in for us this season.

Utd sense blood. This'll be 3-0 before half time.

Syntax error 🫠

That's what you're concerned about? He has three book shelves, but only enough books to fill one of them. But you're concerned about his clothing? Get your priorities straight.

This actually vaguely entertaining by England standards.

People who drive sports cars with red seat belts. Just have grey seat belts like the rest of us you cocks.

That's what I thought based on Google. But when the draw was first made it was suggested the following week. I'm hoping it is the 17th so that I can actually go though... https://x.com/SouthamptonFC/status/1828912373962355111?t=2JleIZOBtp1Nd0sRUbndCg&s=19

Anyone know when the date for this is likely to be confirmed?

Same can't be said of Ticketmaster this morning.

The Welsh TV channel?

Did his ACL earlier in the day. Russ says he should be fit in a couple of weeks though.

How good is the Cardiff team? Are they full-ish strength or made quite a few changes too?

Apparently it's been 20 years today since Beattie did this v Chelsea. Got me thinking, have any other teams in the PL ever scored with their very first touch of the game? https://x.com/FootballRemind/status/1828688652295094306?t=jv1FcT5rCIMAtvRsLQYHcw&s=19
