Why in the second half did we start pumping highs balls into the Brighton half? We shut out our wingbacks plus our two central midfielders. Puzzling to say the least.

If he’s not good enough for Real Madrid should he be good enough for us?

Heard the strikers have been banging the goals in training. I suppose it helps when McCarthy and Gunn have been away on international duty.

Think it’s sad that the amount of players called up in the England national and u21’s squad are not even playing first team games. How the hell can supporters get excited about our national team if we can’t create a homegrown rule of 6 players minimum per starting team. Reckon Chelsea, Manchester City and Arsenal would struggle to produce 6 between them.

Should we not rename this thread ‘SaintsWeb out’

Almost got my head taken off by a brick as I wore a long red and white hat and a inflatable fish on the top. Was walking up that long road to Fartton Park with the hellstones and Pompey fans trying to kill us. On police advice I took it off, thank god!

Just putting this one out there as it’s on my mind. (1) Sat in the archers when my season ticket mate told me about the guy in front of him. See that scar at the back of his head? That’s me celebrating and my two front teeth planted straight into the back of him (funny as f**k) (2) In the archers before a game as this Harry Potter lookalike got his glasses taken off with a vicious shot that hit him straight in the face. He reported it and got his glasses repaired. (3) My worse injury happened outside the game as I was walking to the match and singing to some scousers. My mates words were ‘Hey err, watch ......!! BANG. (I walked straight into a lamppost which knocked me out) (4) Last ever game at the dell as I went to the very top of the stadium where the floodlights are and when coming down I had to make a small jump but my plastic bag which was carrying some memorabilia I found up there followed through and smacked me on top of the head which left me lying there with blood running down my face

Live on the memories m8, especially when Le Tiss was banging them in from all angles.

Armchair - 100% Lambert for England, I screamed the bloody house down. The Armstrong one was class too as he just burst through and slammed home the winner. I was going crazy in the chocolate boxes.

As we have a boring International break it’s nice to think of the good things in the past. (1) Le Tissier vs Arsenal in the last game at the dell. What a strike and a fantastic pitch invasion too. (2) Pahars vs Everton in the great escape. That was a relief and an amazing atmosphere that day. (3) Gabby’s equaliser vs Utd at Wembley as the noise was electric afterwards. (4) Crouch last minute penalty vs the skates. Think I sang Harry and Jim for a fortnight. (5) The Channon wonder goal where it was ping pong through a good Liverpool side. The one goal I wished I was there but was too young - Stokes at Wembley, Never gave us a chance but we rolled them over

Could Hughes get half of what Pellegrino got?

Can he play centerback?

Seems like we win more away in the cups and the league than we do at home? Is this because our fans get on the players backs at home or is it because the away supporters are drowning out our very own and the players are not feeling the support from the terraces? I personally think we play a different system where we get hit on the break too often as we feel it's our duty to push for goals urgently. Thoughts?

Fantastic version of the Robbie Williams song. I believe Milan tried to sue the producer after he did not like the lyrics involving him. Not heard anything since from the producer of the song, anyone know?

Dammit we’ve won. Nothing to moan about and probably a quiet forum for the week.

Thats good, we won’t lose by too much then.

It’s probably written in bold on his contract. You will start every game even if your crap.

Thats the problem then as he lives with a nagging wife who sends him to work in a foul mood

You need to be happy in life when going to work. Gabby has a new young wife living in Italy and it’s pretty obvious he misses her while living in a shi.te place.

Been alittle suspect during pre season and against Leicester however he was breathtaking last season. IMHO Gunn is a fine keeper to bring in if McCarthy drops off even more.

Its that exactly. Cant remember the last player that has improved since signing for Saints. We are no longer improving players and that’s going right down to the youth players too. I will list a few: Romeu - getting worse Lemina - One good game in 20 Redmond - Exciting at Norwich, not so much now. Hoedt - Total pants Bertrand - Going backwards quickly Gabby - Nothing like the person we signed.

Think they are all being saved for plan B which is the championships.

Totally spot on. I think our home and away support is pretty good considering the amount of goals we score. I was thinking only this morning how many times we have scored more than one goal a game and I could only think of Bournemouth and Arsenal. Then I tried to remember the last time we tonked someone ha ha.

This same issue comes up every year and still nothing is done about it. I would love to know one club in the premiership that gives the away supporter almost half of the goal end where they have its main singing stand next to it. It would be great to merge the northam, kingsland and Itchen behind one goal as it would help us out drown any away support.
