SW5 SAINT

I think Jermaine Jenas still has to learn being a presenter isn’t all about him. Easily the worst presenter when he is on the One Show……Managers talk about the opposing team usually negatively all the time. Few honourable exceptions like Pep Guardiola….

That was a bit like me last Wednesday, I was at pub quiz and can’t have phones out during the rounds, and last I checked saints were 2-1 with about 10 minutes to go. Checked about 10 minutes lates to see spurs had just equalised to make it 3-3..! Put phone away with very mixed feelings, minute or so later looked and saw spurs had had a goal chalked off, one I thought would have made it it 4-3 spurs. Only on checking sky sports about 5 minutes later did I realise it was actually 2-3 Southampton……😁😁

Same as last time…..

Fond memories of this day, my first ever visit to Stamford Bridge. 2-1 down at half time, I remember James Beattie getting two of them, one a great free kick. At the end we were all singing Jingle bells x2 oh what fun it is to see Southampton win away - Hey….I was with a Chelsea fan too……

I like the look of that line up…..

I thought it was Liverpool, ManU and Tottenham……

Luton are one of our bogey teams……

Is it really the 30th anniversary of ManU becoming the first top flight team to go out of the FA Cup on penalties. I’m feeling old….

With all the ‘fun’ of deadline day I’d forgotten there was live football on. This is a lot more fun than following all the non events of Deadline day….!

Can’t imagine Newcastle would be interested in any buy back clause in the deal though……

Fantasyland likening themselves to Anfield and Liverpool. Anyway whose paying for all this - £11.5m plus an additional £50m to complete the fantasy…..?

Not much else going on around the country in the way of stadium redevelopments. I notice we didn’t really see much of Pompey’s Milton Road redevelopment apart from a rather drab walkway…….

Presumably Bristol City would be paying something to Saints as well..?

I suspect if someone came in for Broja they would have to pay Chelsea AND Southampton a transfer fee…..

Neither Serbia or Yugoslavia were ever in the Eastern block……😀

What a reasonable, knowledgeably group of fans the Brentford forum seems to represent. So unlike a lot of other football fans forums. Common sense and good natured…..

Yes as a fellow Slav, Albania is next door to Serbia…..

Is he richer than Eisner…….?

Now completed……

According to the Athletic, Villa may be after Oriol Romeo….!

Perhaps they should apply this to the EPL for clubs failing to fulfil fixtures due to COVID. Last season in the SPL both St Mirren and Kilmarnock forfeited fixtures they were unable to fulfil due to COVID……!

I don’t think Chelsea would have given him that 5 year contract in the summer if they had any intention of allowing him to leave…..

I think that if the fans have to show a COVID pass to get into a stadium, the players should also…..

Postponed….

Yes this it, European Super league or no European Super league, the big six no longer need fear relegation. They can borrow millions to cover the cost of COVID etc without any fear……….unlike Saints……
