John Boy Saint Posted 28 April, 2022 Share Posted 28 April, 2022 Hmmmmmm - do I wear the new lucky Calvins that worked for the Arsenal game?............... or are they only lucky because of the combination of wearing them AND starting Arsenal thread?.............what a dilemma! .............I could nick a pair of Mrs JBS's and hope I don't get hit by a bus on the Northam road.

SNSUN Posted 28 April, 2022 Share Posted 28 April, 2022 On paper I think Palace are better than us in most areas of the pitch (I’d say our midfield is better), yet their results are as Jekyll and Hyde as ours are. Both of us have nothing to play for but money and they are definitely beatable, but I can’t see past a draw unless something magical happens like Adams has an ‘on’ day or Stu shows what he’s capable of. 1-1.

Secret Site Agent Posted 28 April, 2022 Share Posted 28 April, 2022 I wore my Saints shirt whilst on holiday in Cyprus last week. A bar man pointed my shirt and said, 'Southampton, what they for?' I said, 'They are a football team in the Premiership.' He said, 'I know. But Southampton, what they for? They win big clubs, they lose small clubs. What they for?' Turns out he's a fan, as he supports Pathos and Jason Puncheon plays for them now. Taught him, "He shits when he wants! He shits when he wants! Jason Puncheon, He shits when he wants!" So, Ralph. Southampton, what we for? 2-0 by the way to us. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suewhistle Posted 28 April, 2022 Share Posted 28 April, 2022 I had noticed that there was no match thread but I didn't want to start it because Lord Duckhunter is such a fragile snowflake it might have given him the vapours..:-) I'm going to wear some lucky boxers, in tribute to John Boy Saint..;-) As to the result I rather agree with SNSUN, so if we can manage two halves like the second half against Brighton, and if one of the WPs can wind up Zaha we should be OK. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 28 April, 2022 Share Posted 28 April, 2022 Scoreline depends on how quickly JWP gets Saha sent off. If early enough, we should be fine. Wouldn't mind seeing Tella again with Stu. Adams with Broja up top. Ralph will have to play balanced full backs, which is a plus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raba Posted 29 April, 2022 Share Posted 29 April, 2022 (edited) Morning all. Palace fan here, first post. I love this away day, I live in Soton so get to have a lie in, stroll to town, few beers at Yates, head to St Marys then out with Saints fans after to discuss JWP getting in to Wilf's head. Hoping for a decent match and of course I'd love a win. I hope you all have a good day. Edited 29 April, 2022 by raba Typo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Wayman Posted 30 April, 2022 Share Posted 30 April, 2022 As it's a "must win" game we'll lose about 3-0 but Ralph will still quack on about a top ten finish when in reality we are a 14th level team. Will Saints ever be reliable? Yes, in the sense that they will always be reliably unreliable. On the plus side, I am really looking forward to the kiddo's match at SMS tomorrow afternoon. Free ticket, sunny afternoon and passionate new stars to watch, what's not to like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintZamboni Posted 30 April, 2022 Share Posted 30 April, 2022 I can see this being a typical saints performance. We’ll go for it and get picked off. Palace are strong and have pace on the break. We’ll leave ourselves exposed and get beat. Usually I’m an optimist about us, I always think we can get after teams but we don’t have any balance at the moment. 4222 and we attack but can’t defend, 541 and we offer no threat but might keep a clean sheet.

Exactly this. 9th is up for grabs so hopefully we can win this one today and get back into the top ten. 2-0 to us today - Prowsey with another world class free kick and Adam Armstrong (really want to see Arma start today and grab one).
