Heisenberg Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 This game will mark 616 days since we last beat a top 6 side (coincidentally it was Spurs away) in the league. Got a funny feeling we will pinch this one* *cheeky insurance bet placed just in case COYS Sadly ill miss this one as off on holiday Monday (Rome, Moscow and Tokyo)
saint1977 Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Also away for this one. Predict 0-4 and an ugly atmosphere. If Reed was any of sort of man he’d spare MP that, bloke is out of his depth. Cleaner of the SMS toilets could do better.
beatlesaint Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 2-0 Saints, Walcott and new Centre Forward.
saint1977 Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 2-0 Saints, Walcott and new Centre Forward. Whatever you are drinking can you please pour me one too ;-)
beatlesaint Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Whatever you are drinking can you please pour me one too ;-) a large glass of delirium I think
Pilchards Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Norfolk ‘n’ Chance. 0-4 and we are going to get Kane’d

ally_uk Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Smashed 6-0 by the spuds Bellgringo will spew the usual dross about how we played good....
Pamplemousse Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 We are going to get royally shafted, without any lube. 1-5
badgerx16 Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 We could feasibly start this game in the bottom 3 - failure to win would surely be the final act of MoPe's tenure.
Saint Albert Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 We are going to get royally shafted, without any lube. 1-5 Since he still seems to like us, Poch’s team will be decent enough to apply lube but still shaft us 1-3.
LGTL Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Could get embarrassing. 1-5 Pellegrino to tell us how we controlled the first 2 minutes and that we need to play like that for the other 88.
Badger Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 We could feasibly start this game in the bottom 3 - failure to win would surely be the final act of MoPe's tenure. How may more 'last matches' has he got left ?
doddisalegend Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 They used to beat us when we had a decent squad..... this game, with this squad, is going to be a ****ing massacre.
SaintZamboni Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 1-0 We’ll score earlyish and they will miss enough chances to have won 2 games.
SuperSAINT Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 2-0 Saints, Walcott and new Centre Forward. Everton will loan us Theo already?
DT Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Their sixth goal was hand ball! Wah wah it's not fair Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
shurlock Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Teams are successful most notably because they have more quality players than their opposition Les Reed (2004), The Official FA Guide to Basic Team Coaching, Hodder and Stoughton.
davefoggy Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 To think there was a time when our record against Spurs at St Marys was unbelievable, and lets not forget when MP left us to join them, we were in a far, far better position, it was almost seen as a backward move! Wow, how things change so quickly. They will smash us, we are ****ing **** now
John Boy Saint Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Think dry January might be under threat come next Sunday evening. Watched tonight's game v Everton, second half it was like Pochetino said to them as they left the dressing room, "do well this half and its steak tonight boys" full time he just quickly opened the dressing room door threw the steak in and shut the door just as quickly.
scotty Posted 13 January, 2018 Posted 13 January, 2018 Fully expecting a comprehensive demolition job next Sunday, and we won't be wielding the ball and chain.

so22saint Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 We are going to get royally shafted, without any lube. 1-5 Agree, and this made me laugh out loud so thanks
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 A much improved performance and a narrow defeat. Press Conference talk about steady improvement.
bpsaint Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 We will lose, heavily, although we may take a sneaky 1-0 lead before capitulating. We’ll be treated to loads of videos on social media in the build up to better times when we beat Spurs previously, before a performance on Sunday that sees the fans turn on the board and manager in a big way.
Window Cleaner Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Think we get beat 3-0 We'll have to play really well to only concede 3 goals though.
JRM Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Hate playing Spurs. without doubt the worst record we've had against any club since being promoted back to the top flight in 2012. shlthouse club with gobby fans who seem to forget it wasn't that long ago that a mid table finish was the norm for them. Would love to get something from this, but there's no way we will. Spurs to win by more than one goal. Our tactically inept manager to remain in charge.
fanimal Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Harry Kane is already licking his lips about filling his boots and Gary Lineker has already drafted his MOTD plaudits for his favourite player. It will probably be embarrassing and a bad way to spend a Sunday afternoon, unless we conserve our energy in the first half and keep solid and then fresh legs on at 60 minutes gives us the whiff of a draw. We have no heroes left unfortunately. And now the cricket is getting wobbly as well...
Badger Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Could be a very bad day for us, and anything other than a serious drubbing 0-4 or 5 will be a surprise on current form. Fully expect Kane to score a hatrick; Son or Alli no doubt get in on the act, and Eriksen always seems to score against us. Alli being the nasty sneaky bastard that he is will probably get away with inflicting an ankle injury on Hojberg or Lamina to further damage our prospects for the rest of the season. But if Lloris makes a single save in the first five minutes Pellegrino will no doubt point to that as being our bad luck and how that was a game changer. At The Dell we used to relish this sort of match whilst in a relegation scrap - remember Blackburn at home when they were going for the title - but then we had MLT and some players who played with pride and determination, rather than Relegation- Redmond, a few bottlers and others already considering where they could play next season. Better atmosphere for this at The Dell as well though with the crowd up for it and close to the pitch.
Cabrone Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Spurs are going to surgically open us up and disembowel us. I truly fear this could be the biggest beating we are going to take this season. Really hope I'm wrong.

PaulSaint Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Can anyone with Aussie Flu hang around their Training Ground for a few days, I can contribute a hot water bottle and some chicken soup.
scotty Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Another dreary, uninspiring loss That's quite optimistic compared to most other posts on here.
bjk Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 I dont even want to think about it.We are a shambles of a club i cant understand why the manager is still here,its as if the board actually want us to go down i just cant believe whats happening.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Can’t see anything else other than a heavy loss, toxic atmosphere and no action from Reed and Co. Spurs away support will sing our only song and intimidate the Northam faithful with “Oh when the Saints go marching down”. In short it’s going to be miserable day I fear - shocking that it was less than two seasons ago that I went to games like this thinking we had a good chance of winning. Such is the decline in management of the first team element of the club. Thanks Les.
Simon3737 Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 If Pellegrino is still here, I’d be fairly relieved if we can keep the defeat down to 5-2 again!
ashnats Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 We need to consider our goal difference here. 11 men behind the ball, anything better than -4 would be a bonus. Maybe we could come to a gentleman’s agreement and just let them win 3-0. Alternatively, what’s the penalty if we don’t turn up?
Dr. Kucho Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 2-0 Saints, Walcott and new Centre Forward. New manager effect after Pellegrino’s dramatic departure tomorrow..
LGTL Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 Poch is everything Pellegrino isn't. This could well be horrendous.
tobes8 Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 if it gets toxic I'd imagine the directors box will have more fortification than the north/South Korean border. Hope les and Ralph have their hard hats ready. After no wins in 10 playing this formation I just hope we go with 2 up top.
S-Clarke Posted 14 January, 2018 Posted 14 January, 2018 if it gets toxic I'd imagine the directors box will have more fortification than the north/South Korean border. Hope les and Ralph have their hard hats ready. After no wins in 10 playing this formation I just hope we go with 2 up top. Nothing will change. Priority will be to contain and defend, even though that tactic doesn't even work as we still conceed. Need the manager to grow some balls and throw Gabbiadini and Long up front, push Boufal and Tadic to the flanks and just go for it. But it won't happen, it will still be the same passive approach hoping it will click. it's too late now, we need to go for it. Nothing to lose. We lose if we defend, so we might as well attack.
