Leicester 2-0 Saints - Match Thread

[Baird of the land]

Small one seems an odd choice. Would have preferred Walcott out wide.

Fingers crossed we can pull out a surprise result.

[davefizzy14]

Smallbone played very well against Aston Villa at Home last season and also when we played Watford away after project restart last season. Get behind him COYR

[LGTL]

Smallbone played the exact same position against Palace and was horrendous. Haven’t seen anything of him in any game that suggests he has much about him, but what the fuck do I know. 

[Hodgey]

Longs star has fallen dramatically, Ralph would rather play 2 players out of position than play him...

Did Steve Mcmanaman just suggest Ralph is German?

Ditto. Mushroom rice and a sag paneer on the side. Splendid.

Is dinner reviews the new nuns? 

I'm not a fan of this change.

[Yorkshire Saint]

Ham and pea soup .. mince pies and cream. 2-1 Saints

I think it’s an avoidance tactic, keeping minds off the Tyro league bench 

[Toussaint]

2-1 saints, Smallbone worldie

Just for fun to while away the time - what have folk got on the menu for their pre match meal tonight.

In the JBS house - Chinese has been selected and will be collected in a minute, washed down with Thatchers Katy single fruit Cider.

We’ve just polished off a takeaway that I walked back with. Prawn purri , meat rogon josh, vegetarian balti and pilau rice and a chicken tikka starter which I shall save until tomorrow.

[John Boy Saint]

This tater is getting right on my Tits 

[Saint_clark]

Commentator bangs on about the 9-0 multiple times, whoever the co-commentator is says that more should be said about the fact we beat them 3 months later. Fair play.

They’ve only mentioned the 9-0 three times so far.

4 mentions of THAT result before the game has kicked off.

[Wsaint]

Mentioned 3 times in a minute in a half...

Yeah its Mcmanaman who said that

[Saint_clark]

Christ I forgot how much BT like to zoom right in on the "action". Just show us the fucking game.

[adrian lord]

Scrappy, up in the air start

[Jonnyboy]

That pitch looks screwed

[trousers]

KWP looking good yet again 

[OttawaSaint]

Getting in some good positions but poor final ball (Walcott, Armstrong).

[Saint_clark]

Promising start.

[Jimmy_D]

Feels like we're doing ok so far...

[Saint_clark]

Bendarek never scores from corners.

[Picard]

Quote

Quite a few Southampton fans moaning about the 9-0 gubbing at the hands of Leicester being mentioned a lot.

Yeah, that's because you lost NINE nil. In a Premier League match.

NINE.

When was the last time we started poorly? We always seem to dominate the first 15 minutes or so

Was worth a go.

I could be wrong but I think he has scored 3 times in the PL for us, and in all we have lost by 3-2 after going 2 goals ahead!!!

[Dark Munster]

5 minutes gone, already two mentions of "record defeat" and "9-0" here in the States.

Fuck me, I won't be trying to jinx him a goal again then. 

McCarthy never scores from booted clearances after oppo freekicks.

[OttawaSaint]

 No yellow for Barnes, left the boot in. Not too different to Bertie when he got sent off.

[trousers]

Now, that's how you punch a ball out

Here in Mongolia a taxi driver just mentioned it twice.

Best to take it as a backhanded compliment. The better our form the more they seem to mention it

[Saint_clark]

I say it every game but I never understand keeping the ball to the extent of passing it all the way back to the keeper for the keeper to then just boot it long and give it away anyway.
