  1. That's the spirit old chap, ever the optimist!
  2. Faint heart never won fair lady
  3. 100% correct. Totally agree with you. So will Ralph!
  4. Saints are playing with a new positivity buoyed no doubt by the takeover and a sense perhaps that we are no longer a club that has to beg, borrow and steal its way to surviving in the PL. Removing that shadow over the club may derive huge benefits for the manager and the players. We are in good form with great team spirit and a sense of togetherness that we have not seen for a few years. A happy dressing room indeed! We have nothing to fear from any other club in the PL as results testify. Having lost only 6 games all season - arguably two of which we should never have lost anyway - we have amply proved we are very difficult to beat home or away. Saints should go into tomorrow's match with confidence and dare I suggest bit of a swagger, the result in the reverse fixture at SMS was a travesty on the balance of play and we are far better now than then. Barring any serious injury problems that we don't know about yet our current starting XI is good enough to take the game to teams around us in the league. I expect us to do well tomorrow and looking for a 3-1 win COYS.
  5. I was thinking the same. Insane tackle suggest he has a lot to learn before getting a first team call up. Why do they do these stupid things?
  6. It's on days like this that we remember why we follow our team through thick and thin, year in year out. You just never know.......
  7. Good call after all. 3-4-3 has surprised me but with Elyounoussi down with Covid maybe Ralph's options were limited.
  8. Broja still has a great deal to prove, it's not a given that he will break through to become a top PL striker. There are flaws in his game for all to see. If Chelsea decide that he is not good enough for them why would we stump up £20m + for his signature when there may be better youngsters out there.
  9. Very unlikely, if Ralph plays that way then he automatically loses one of his in-form midfielders Romeu, JWP & Diallo. I expect him to start more or less where he left off on Saturday and whilst some players will last longer than others he will take the risk and haul them off when they're knackered. For me it's a no brainer especially with SArmstrong nowhere near match-fit enough to start. Forster JWP Bednarek Salisu Perraud Romeu Diallo Redmond Elyounoussi Tella Broja Why wouldn't he start with his current best eleven as this is in effect a six pointer? A good win and Saints are knocking on the door of the top ten. Some tough games coming up so this one is a 'must' win that we need to win. I'm going for 2-0.
  10. I still don't know what you are talking about. Never mind. Some people need to find fault with everything. Time to look in the mirror old cock.
  11. What on earth are you talking about.
  12. Good game to watch and satisfied with the performance and the result. Good to see the website hate figures doing well. Well done Elyounoussi, Long and Forster - hope that will shut up your critics for a while. Diallo was outstanding and JWP probably just about deserved his MotM. A Armstrong has some work to do to prove he was worth the £18m or whatever it was we paid for him Tuning in to BBC Wales was a doddle and the coverage was first class.
  13. We played them in a friendly pre-season if you remember. We won 1-0 there. We beat Cardiff 4-0 so they must be better than the Blues.
  14. Well, Ralph says we are no longer a selling club. HOO-bloody-RAY! That sounds like a decent promise.
  15. Lovely lad. I'd rather him be the new Sterling ... and.. and... when he is scoring for fun and his contract is up for renewal we don't have to sell him and he wants to stay a Saint.
  16. Sure, but what if Marcus had shopped elsewhere? Where would we be then.
  17. I wonder if Katerina by retaining her small investment in SFC is an emotional nod to her late father's passion for the club? If so good on her.
  18. Sounds more like gobble-de-gook, full of big-picture ambition but no strategy for getting there
  19. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/help/questions/programme-availability/national-regional-programmes
  20. and on Freeview?
  21. Really tough call for the lad but the right one. I understand that he's a quite bright lad so he has time to embark on a professional career and football will not have left him out of pocket luckily. Good luck for your future Sam.
  22. For me the teams most watchable are Man City, Viera's Crystal Palace, Wolves and Chelsea. The least watchable are Everton, Burnley, West Ham and Leicester City. The rest I can take or leave, probably mostly leave.
  23. We certainly didn't have this on-off nonsense last year. Shut it all down for a month or two and then start again. How is this learning to live with Covid?
  24. What's the latest news on Ralph Hasenhüttl?
  25. Of course, Forster was kicking it our deliberately.
