trousers Posted 22 February, 2013 Posted 22 February, 2013 Don't worry, I'm still alive. Welcome back sir
Dalek2003 Posted 22 February, 2013 Posted 22 February, 2013 According to Delldays, Fonte is fit. Excellent news, even if he doesn't go straight into the team !
RonManager Posted 22 February, 2013 Posted 22 February, 2013 According to Delldays, Fonte is fit. Excellent news, even if he doesn't go straight into the team ! TDD is correct, he is fit. I have no idea if he's over his injury though.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 22 February, 2013 Posted 22 February, 2013 TDD is correct, he is fit. I have no idea if he's over his injury though. Classic Ron Manager comment classic
THINWHITEDUKE Posted 22 February, 2013 Posted 22 February, 2013 Nah let Puncheon score them both and wipe his a rse infront of AP, I kinda want Rickie to score his ton at SMS so we can all go properly mental for him This
SNSUN Posted 22 February, 2013 Posted 22 February, 2013 I'd like to comment on the 13 wins he's predicted for qpr this season! http://www.myfootballfacts.com/Mark_Lawrensons_Predictions_2012-13.html Not too far off on us. Look at Swansea and QPR... Clueless. he's tipped us to lose every game since ponch took over. It's actually the recent form table which is the most telling - he's predicted 23 points from us when we have 27 but has only predicted one result correctly (ergo 1 point) in eleven games. He thinks we'll struggle, let's keep proving him wrong. Don't worry, I'm still alive. Every forum needs an MLG.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 22 February, 2013 Posted 22 February, 2013 Don't know if anyone else just saw, but on the Fantasy Football show Mikel Arteta had to name his all-time XI of players he has played with. He had Pochettino at CB and as his captain. He said a few words on him: "You could always see he was going to be a manager." "What he doesn't know about football isn't worth knowing." "He's like a chess player, always four moves ahead of you."
Tokyo-Saint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Beasry's mate over there (Ant McFarland or something) was just saying we are a glorified championship team, then Dec chipped in by saying that people on this forum were a bunch of arrogant *****s. I mean we have only had a couple of mod posts and one from MLG, how can they tell so early? It is weird communicating with Geordies, usually due to their speech impediments it is impossible to understand them but through the power of the internet and modern technology we are making contact. Hi Geordies! how are you? Hand over Cheryl Cole and give back Shearer and we'll call it quits and forgive you for all the Raul Mote and Jimmy Nail crocodile shoes stuff, deal?
Frank's cousin Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Apparently they are having a 'French day' all Red, White and Blue.... all 'Le Toon' My father In-law is a Geordie and Toon fan - and he sent me nice copy of tehir club mail describing all the fun to be had... We in yellow or red?
Shroppie Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 See the racing in Toon today is off - snow. Assume the game is ok, but going to be bl00dy cold.
Turkish Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Apparently they are having a 'French day' all Red, White and Blue.... all 'Le Toon' My father In-law is a Geordie and Toon fan - and he sent me nice copy of tehir club mail describing all the fun to be had... We in yellow or red? How embarassing. It's the sort of thing our fans would do. I can just imagine all the fat Geordies wearing berets, with onions round their neck sticking of garlic and waving French sticks in the air over their stained replica shirts.
alehouseboys Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 And I quote: They all seem like arrogant pr*cks on their forum too, hope we bring them back down to earth with a bump on Sunday. Southampton are a different class to us and will win very easily http://www.nufc-forum.com/nufcforum/index.php?topic=48797.45

martel Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 According to Delldays, Fonte is fit. Excellent news, even if he doesn't go straight into the team ! Only guessing of course, but the Marchwood bypass was closed yesterday due to a R.T.A. and got diverted past Staplewood, this was around 12.30pm and saw players leaving with Fonte at the front, so maybe he is fit again, he was closely followed by Jack Cork, guess they fly up to Newcastle today.

Glasgow_Saint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 arrived in Newcastle last night woke up to heavy snow today! game could be at risk?
Thedelldays Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 arrived in Newcastle last night woke up to heavy snow today! game could be at risk? surely they deal with this more often than other teams they played a game recently with the line markings were blue....
Glasgow_Saint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 surely they deal with this more often than other teams they played a game recently with the line markings were blue.... suspect so but this snow fall may have taken them by surprise? 7 inches here in 2.5 hours and still coming down strong
Thedelldays Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 bbc weather says it is much drier tomorrow and slightly warmer
Huffton Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 suspect so but this snow fall may have taken them by surprise? 7 inches here in 2.5 hours and still coming down strong Is it affecting travel in and out? Supposed to be driving up tomorrow morning, not sure whether to risk it now...
fez Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Is it affecting travel in and out? Supposed to be driving up tomorrow morning, not sure whether to risk it now... Newcastle Airport operating OK. Just checked and flight from Southampton landed at 10.54. You'll be fine driving up tomorrow morning
Glasgow_Saint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Is it affecting travel in and out? Supposed to be driving up tomorrow morning, not sure whether to risk it now... im 3 miles from city centre / ground and roads are covered. will update later as snow has slowed now
studentsaint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Looking at today's fixtures, we could well come into tomorrow's game with the chance of reaching 11th. Norwich v Everton Wba v Sunderland Fulham v stoke Whu v spurs (Monday) On the other hand reading could be a point behind us or with a draw or Wigan win we are only 3 points clear. My point is Sunday is a huge game for both us and Newcastle. If we can get a win and take that into the Qpr game next week we will be in a great position. Plus we could well drag the rest of the bottom half into the scrap.
eelpie Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Difficult to call. Will we maintain our momentum? Geordies did well in Europa Thursday and could be confident and boyed up to overtake us in the league. I reckon there will be a couple of goals for each side. I'll be happy with a draw right now, though that won't be in MP's thinking. An exciting game in atrocious weather methinks.
CWD Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 I think we'll draw, which provided we beat QPR next week, would be a good result. 1-1, Jos to get off the mark for the season.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 I predicted we'd lose to Man City, draw at Newcastle and win against QPR. We beat Man City, so I'll take a draw at Newcastle if it means we will beat QPR! Do think we've got an excellent chance of going up there and getting 3 points though.
PhilippineSaint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Some cracking lasses up there, if only they'd keep their mouths shut... thats what your cock is for
student Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Why do you post about the affairs of a ream you don't support? It's always strange to see a poster commenting 'you' about us. Do you not find it a bit more interesting having an outsiders view too? I live in the city and go along to games when .i can and have for the last 3 years. It helps stimulate a bit more debate you utter mong.
sfc4prem Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Think we'll lose this 2-0 despite a good performance and several chances.
student Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 who do you support Im a united fan and post on their forum too but ive been really impressed with the setup and ambition at southampton. If you look on the united forum almost all the good things said about the saints comes from me. Couldnt speak more highly of your team
Jimmy_D Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 That Newcastle forum is funny. I love it when opposition fans underestimate us, makes it fun to read how they were having their worst game in ages afterwards.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 I like these student wars, it's like skins. Strange that a torquay united fan would post on here but we have had tarten owl, flyer, milts and Bearsy, they all support other teams. I like getting other fans views but they always disappear when we beat their team. You sticking around student? Even if we smash untied in the cup?

pingwing Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Krul is out?!?! BEST NEW EVER!! Harper couldn't save a word document (and I thought was released last season for being that poor on loan at Brighton), Elliot is supposed to be alright (well was good for cafc) but not having Krul is the best news!

Harper couldn't save a word document (and I thought was released last season for being that poor on loan at Brighton), Elliot is supposed to be alright (well was good for cafc) but not having Krul is the best news! Looks like Ben Arfa isn't going to be risked yet either.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 That Newcastle forum is funny. I love it when opposition fans underestimate us, makes it fun to read how they were having their worst game in ages afterwards. I liked the "glorified Championship club" comment...
Tokyo-Saint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 FFS which numpties are over there talking with them?
Jimmy_D Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 I liked the "glorified Championship club" comment... Considering the fact they played Thursday, have some of their best players out, we're above them in the league, we're coming of the back of some of the best form we've had all season, that form coming against top teams, aaaand we've had a two week break for Tino to get his style across to us more and improve fitness, not to mention we humiliated them at our place, and I can see where their fans' confidence that they'll beat us comes from.
Red Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Do you not find it a bit more interesting having an outsiders view too? I live in the city and go along to games when .i can and have for the last 3 years. It helps stimulate a bit more debate you utter mong. I for one do - keep it up! Good of you to make the effort - I keep an eye out for 2 or 3 other teams for various reasons (lived there, relatives associated with club etc. etc.), but can't muster the effort to even view their site let alone post!
pingwing Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Looks like Ben Arfa isn't going to be risked yet either. YESSS! That'll do very nicely to disrupt their team and hopefully ensure Pards feels so limited he has to try out 4-3-3 again with 3 very central (and confused) strikers...
Frank's cousin Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Think we do need to be a bit careful - they have pace with sissoko and the other frenchies up front, ball over the top when we are pressing could be dangerous.
havasack Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 There's a bit of confidence coming from the way we've played since Sissoko and Gouffran arrived (yes I'm a Mag). Personally speaking I can't understand how either group of fans can be too confident about this game.
havasack Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 YESSS! That'll do very nicely to disrupt their team and hopefully ensure Pards feels so limited he has to try out 4-3-3 again with 3 very central (and confused) strikers... We (NUFC) won't be playing 3 central strikers. I'd guess Cisse centrally, with Gouffran and Gutierrez playing off him (though everyone I know would put Marveaux in for Guti)
Glasgow_Saint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 im 3 miles from city centre / ground and roads are covered. will update later as snow has slowed now Roads are clear now, no problems for tomorrow as long as it doesnt snow overnight
Thedelldays Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Roads are clear now, no problems for tomorrow as long as it doesnt snow overnight you on the lash?
Glasgow_Saint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 you on the lash? Heading to Browns for dinner now, then on the lash
Thedelldays Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Heading to Browns for dinner now, then on the lash please say with mates...and not the missus
Saint Scott Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 MATCH PREVIEW Huge game! Could climb up to 13th with a win. Can see Newcastle being a lot better than the reverse fixture, I think Sissoko will be a big player for them tomorrow.
studentsaint Posted 23 February, 2013 Posted 23 February, 2013 Someone living in Southampton that supports united. I've heard the views of many if these, tend to be nice until their team beats you and all of a sudden saints are poor. The only view of a united fan that remotely mattered was that of fergie saying we were the best team to play there this year. By the way Ryan giggs has been a very good player for a long time, thought that view would interest. I'm pretty happy that your lot did a job on Qpr today, you're good for that.
