Saint Charlie

What is happening?

Solent will probably ask him what he thinks about ML not being there and if he will be here next season.

Might be very interesting...

Last appearance at SMS for Wotton.

Ankle injury according to the Echo, same with Barnard!

Puncheon was absolutely superb! Everyone else just superb.

Strange nobody said this on Saturday. Some people have no clue, you can't just win every game. If it was that easy everyone would. Dropped points at home have damaged us IMO. Our away form is good and going to tough places with crap pithes and not getting beat is ok, but obviously not of you need to win 15 in a row! If we had beaten Brentford, Colchester, Millwall and Brighton at home then this would have been a decent point!

Beat Walsall and 7 points from 3 games including 2 away and 1 against top of the table. Would have taken that before. We used to lose games like tonight!

I wondered this, and also the players too as many of them are new to the club.

Is this through the Saints site or an external one?

Agree and Pardew hasn't done that. His signings so far have been excellent.

No. It proves that the players we have brought in are better than what we had and that but for the minus 10 and poor start whilst Pards sorted out the squad we would be right up there. And not sure about you but I can't wait for Wembley!

Looked poor to me. Wasn't at the game but we looked rubbish. Too many bookings, would rather have had a draw but no bookings and more pace in the team.

Now won more away than we have lost this season. Home draws at the beginning were the main issue, away form has generally been decent. Nice to hopefully have some consistency of selection and some impact players like Papa and Antonio on the bench!

Not enough pace in the line up, too many bookings. Only 5th away win this season. Poor. I am glad Im not one of the moaners! bet they are disappointed! Great result, pleased for Pards, he has done a great job and any criticism is very harsh. Puncheon sounded good and great for Barnard to score.

Hopefully Puncheon is quick.

Yes. He would cost 2m at least, nobody much in the CCC has that money apart from promotion challenger or relegated teams. For them there are probably better options given that Rickie is not young and we wouldn't sell for cheap. Schneiderlin and Lallana more likely to go IMO but let's just see. If we play like first hour yesterday we could win nearly every game that's left. Playoff not totally over IMO but can only afford one more loss and one or two draws tops. Plus obviously others dropping points!

Davis said when Hammond became captain that he (Davis) would lift any trophies and that Hammond was taking it up to be a captain on the pitch.

Massive banner: HMRC is a Saints fan!

Team has to be: -------------------------Davis------------------------- Thomas-----------Jaidi----------------Perry------------Harding Antonio----------------Morgan-----------Hammond--------------Lallana ---------------------Lambo--------------Papa------------------------ No brainer.

IMO we miss Hammond every game he misses because he is the only central midfielder we have who can do a bit of everything, pass, tackle, head, score, lead.

Anyone know when he might be back? I think he is a massive player for us, and brings the best out of others too, like Morgan and Lallana. Hopefully he will be back soon, we have really missed him.

Those two Guernsey guys Quintin Hubbard and Ben Steele who were seen around SMS have been annoying Cardiff recently too.

Definately still on loan but out of contract at end of season, so I am sure we will get his permanently then.

Is Blue Square Prem governed by the transfer window? I guess we could always take him on loan when that window opens, with a view to permanent move in the summer. If it was us that agreed a deal.
