East Kent Saint

Er I think he means VVD should be back for next season , he denied rumours VVD will be back this season.

I admit I gave up last night and , Likely Lads style , tried to avoid the final result this morning but it was a bit of a shock to see 9 -0 and 2 reds .

Rashford told us Jose taught them all about winning pens for the team !

Klopp is saying he loaned him out as Liverpool were short of tall players for defending set pieces and he would probably get a lot of game time with Saints. He’s hoping he comes back up to speed so no thought of selling at the moment.

www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55908503 So Ings has come out well ?

www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55905232 Good job Ralph takes it on the chin !

Winston Smith works in the Records Department of the Ministry of Truth, where his job is to rewrite historical documents so they match the constantly changing current party line.

Messi's contract leaked , £492 M over 4 years , potentially . Messi on £10 M a month , no wonder he wants out .

Another disappointing Jan window for Saints ?

Maybe they were going with the Refs decision ie deflection on to hand therefore no pen , rather than was it going in the goal. VAR needs a review , not changes on the hoof. A few years ago a Uni did a study on fouls and concluded that if a player put his arms down to break his fall to the floor it was probably a foul BUT if they threw their arms up as they went down it probably wasn't. I think more studies should be done , look at Grealish when he hits the deck , both his legs are straight out behind him showing he has held his lead leg back or Salah who colapses like a sack of spuds at the slightest touch etc . Factor that into the VAR and decide on what and when it is used for.

I few years earlier we went on a school trip to WHL , arrived in coach park and watched Terry Paine and co get off their coach ! excitement , we lost 5-3 but were coming back strongly and if we had another 10 mins ..... stopped for cockles and other strange thinks on the way home !

Apologies, I don’t listen to J V so made an assumption. It’s normal for us to turn the News off these after the headlines to maintain sanity 😀

No in previous matches , a bit of a generalisation I know but Bertie seems to be often up the pitch when a bit of defence is required. May be just my impression.

Where Stephens is being slagged off it is noticable that Bertie is nowhere to be seen in the left side defensive area at the time .

Are you saying , Toussaint , that you are denying that Covid 19 exisits ? or is no worse than a common cold ?

In my day it was 2 3 5 ! the 2 backs were just that .

In the sixties Saints v Ipswich 1-1 , Saints got a last minute equaliser but by then a large portion of the crowd had left ! Chivers up front for Saints .

Thanks

Who are SAFC ?

I suspect Liverpool would want to sign someone who isn’t already injured ! Unlike Saints for example 🙂

What will they do about City's 2nd goal ? Lino flagged but Ref allowed play to go on as per latest guidance , WBA saw flag and more or less stopped defending . VAR said onside so goal stood . Lino was a yard behind so it would have looked off but she wasn't supposed to flag until move played out , apparently.

Ings may be suffering from after effects of Cov19 plus mental pressure due to contract negotiations and transfer speculation as well as lack of service up front. Players seem to struggle on the pitch when in the thick of contract talks esp if there is a chance they may leave at some point .

I thought I was a master of not doing anything in particular until the lockdowns started , might be because the pubs are closed of course ! Siestas are supposed to be good for you but they just mean a bad nights sleep for me.

Even Wilshere has scored tonight !

I thought we would be OK with Cedric and Pepe in their team , then ....................
