If there is no money to buy players as Gao has said on several occasions then we don't need a DOF or CEO, just a magician and we seem to have one in place. Rabbits out of hutches perhaps?

Something about big rats leaving sinking ships perhaps? Did he jump or was he pushed is the question that has not been answered. The difficulty as I see it is if Ralph K was the architect of Ralph H's appointment; recalling the Pochettino / Cortese situation. Not all change is bad, not all change is good but stability is not a word that can be attributed to the going's on at St Mary's since its opening less than twenty years ago. Thank you Ralph for all your work behind the scenes over the las few years to promote the cause of SFC. On balance you have helped more than hindered and only your reluctance to condemn REED and eject him much earlier blots your copy book. Good Luck!

Poor match. Best team won. Hey went in with his studs showing and caught the other lad on the shin. Red card all day long. When will they ever learn?

Season ticket renewals - announced 10 April

Doubt there is much of a correlation between seat prices and attendance, if the product is crap nobody will come if the product is good they'll be fighting for tickets. -
Are Saints owned by the Chinese government?

There must be plan but it doesn't seem to be working.

To be fair that pretty much describes our whole team until Ralph Hut came along

A lovely man, simply this! I'm sure he'll join our coaching staff one day, he's worth far more to us than the few quid a transfer would fetch for him, as a leader, as a wise old head and as an inspiration for the kids. In three years time he should be given a testimonial perhaps against the Japan National Team at SMS. What a match that could be.

Not sure about posts 37,38 which smacks a bit too much of arrogance and over confidence. It is always as well to be realistic about our own capabilities and respeto the boxct our opponents. They are a brilliant team on their day and can beat anybody which is more than can be said for us despite our recent uptick in attitude and performance level. Every team knows that we cannot defend high crosses into the box and Wolves are particularly good at that. Wolves will win this one quite easily I fear because we will regard them as NOT Liverpool so take out foot off the gas slightly and by that I mean on for wo players might not have their sharpest thinking caps on for this one and allow their concentration levels to slip - as indeed they did on Friday when everyone had a brain fade and deserted their posts for the corner that led to their breakaway goal. 1-3 Sorry for the pessimism chaps.

Let's hope instead that they don't catch us on one of our off days. We're not safe yet so let's hope we don't take our foot off the pedal. Not an easy match but we can beat them if we have the desire.

...and that Henderson tackle on Bertie towards the end was vicious and should have been a straight Red card. Did anybody mention that? Did they rollicks.
-
Exactly that, you took the words right out of my mouth. The whole clucking set up is rigged and corrupt, Sod the BBC!
-
Exactly this, the stupidity of leaving one at the back to deal with their front three when we were pressing really high after HT at 1-1 was the turning point and inexcusable, smacking of indiscipline from over confidence. Ralph was fuming and rightly so. What is there to Liverpool except unimaginative square passing in defence with eventual long hopeful balls into the box either from our nemesis or from the left wing? Man City are much the better and more attractive footballing side and for that alone deserve the title despite fears of hegemony. Last night for the first half hour we were by far the better footballing side and it was a sickeningly disappointing result at the end

Too sarcy mate we were pleased to win that same trophy ourselves not that long ago

If you are not attending, you can sell them through the club; anybody who wants them can phone in at more or less the same time as you send your instruction to sell.

36 points will be enough, one more win. Time to relax, puff on a cigar, sip a scotch and close the book on a very forgettable season.
-
I have a hunch that Boufal & Hassenhuts will be a match made in heaven and he'll be our player of the season next year.

Hope your source is neither Robert Peston nor Laura Keunsberg

Finally, the long-overdue 2018/19 kit thread...
Charlie Wayman replied to The9's topic in The Saints
How about a Navy Blue coloured shirt for next season? Red socks? -
They'll start fast out of the blocks with high pressing and intensity, the opening 10 minutes could be a nightmare. I hope we are prepared for this. If we play like we did yesterday after our goal we're going to get tanked.

Brighton 0 Saints 1 - Post Match Celebrations
Charlie Wayman replied to St Chalet's topic in The Saints
3 points is all that matters -
Whilst it is good to see Mario Lemina back in training and seemingly enjoying football life again, he will be nowhere near match fit for quite a while. What a player to have on the bench 'though so expect him to come on at Brighton for the last 15 minutes when Romeu and/or Hoj pick up their inevitable yellow cards or blowing like whales.
-
He looked very nervous and unsure of his role last night. Every time he received the ball he off-loaded it as quickly as possible usually backwards safely to a team mate 5 yards away. He's got to be a lot more confident on the ball than he was last night and more assertive in making things happen if he wants to get into this team again. Let's face it he's 24 and the new kids are 18, time is not on his side. Certainly cannot challenge Henderson or Barclay on this showing.

Never understood the doubters. Cracking player.

Burnley's fall from grace has been mind boggling yet their manager still seems immune to criticism.
