Prague is cool. Saints fans on plane? Not cool.

It is possible to enjoy yourself without being a massive f*cking d*ck.

 

Which flight were you on?

 

The 17.15 from Stansted (easyjet) had a few wurzels, though the head stewardess didn't do herself any favours.

This flight. And I thought she deserved a medal! But yeah, there were only a couple of d!cks. By and large it was alright really. I'm a crap flyer and having the pilot slam on the brakes whilst taxiing until everyone calmed didn't help.

Calmed down? What were people doing, singing football chants? The horror! I wonder if pilots did the same when the cast of the Lion King started singing, or any such similar stories you hear about.

Wouldn't be white hart lane anyway they are playing all European games at Wembley

I just read they're considering moving back to WHL if they qualify for Europa. Players hate Wembley, allegedly.

 

Just hope they lose their last game and drop out altogether.

Without trawling back through the thread, is Boufal fit? The Sun (Yeah I know) are reporting that he has a sickness bug...they also say that Fonte is out with a foot injury though ..he doesn't play Europa games anyway !?

Just been looking this up, I believe the channel may be 414. Not at home so can't check for sure! If that fails, I'll be hooking my PC up to my TV and use the BT website.

Lady in my Prague hotel says 6 of their players are injured or unwell. 17 year old playing apparently. Good news

 

Just as long as he's not as good as our 17 year old from 2007, then all good

As far as I'm aware, it's only available through the freeview channel, not the Sky channels. That was the case last season, it might have changed for this season. I guess there's only one way to find out

That was my prediction last week except thought Reed and Boufal would start, also not surprised to see Romeu rested for Sundays game.

 

Strong line up, should see us win, we don't score many away from Europe but I'm gonna predict us a 1-0 win with Jay Rodriguez curling one in from about 12 yards.

If squad numbers are anything to go by, Sparta have had to dig deep into their reserves to get a team out, especially on the bench...

It's a young bench but most of their first 11 are there. Lafata is the danger and he didn't play at St Marys

From a brief bit of research the Prague team is mostly made up of experienced players with two early 20's lads but no complete rookies.

 

They were crap at SMS though, if we don't score it will be a poor show.

Good line up but I'm a bit disappointed to see Boufal on the bench rather than starting, he needs game time doesn't he?

 

Apparently Sparta are depleted though so good news, we should be able to win this.....:scared:

It's the same team with which they beat Beer Sheva

Some more tinker tinkering from the tinkerman

 

Are we resting players for the league or the cups - seems we never have a full first team out?

 

Anyway.... that's a very poor Prague side and think we will win this 1-3

It's a red herring all this talk of them being depleted, there's plenty of regulars there.

 

I'm still going for 0-0 or 1-0 defeat.

So remind me again whats the current thinking on Jose ? not trying to get him cup tied or will only use him in the knock out phases.

 

Also is Reed injured?

 

 

Jose has a foot injury picked up in the pool game.

Not what I said but you know that already

 

7 changes from Saturday - do we really need to be making that many changes each game?

Fonte was injured in the Liverpool game, Puel has stated this and you could even see he was when watching the match.

 

If they didn't want him cup tied for the Europa League then he wouldn't have been the main centre back sub for the Inter Milan game home & away and the Sparta Prague game at home. Saints fans continue with this daft conspiracy theory but it makes no sense. If Yoshida or van Dijk were injured in those 3 games then the club was clearly willing to use FOnte so clearly weren't keeping him from being cup tied.

We play on Sunday, Everton's squad is completely fresh for it with a week to prepare. By rotating 7 players tonight it helps us remain at a similar level of freshness.

 

Really is pathetic that every single one of your posts is this daft (probably deliberately, but you never know with you alpine and dalek!)

**** me - is Glasgow still here? Would have been nice to be able to "chat" through the game without his asinine banalities.

 

Sadly he is like the local sewer, cannot avoid the bad smell...

Leicester played Saturday too and play again this weekend

 

Total changes for them = 1
