Surely no one doubts his talent? He's already shown that he's an unbelievable player.

Indeed but some pundits been going on based Community Shield and comparing with Nunez. Even Pep referenced doubters in interview this week. No one with an ounce of knowledge would but our 24 hour Talksport/SSN shite we need to get Jamie O’Hara and others views on such matters and more controversial the better

Much like Talksport, I reckon Steve pays some of the posters on here to have shit opinions purely to drive traffic.

Probably find out he's actually got 10-15 accounts on the go between him and the mods to increase post count and get people so riled up they spend another fiver to basically argue with fake accounts.

There's probably some merit to this, MLG is certainly a fake account to get clicks and comments.

I can confirm this is true, but I'm curious as to why they decided to mothball their 'Glasgow' account though. That was up there as one of their best nom de plumes.

[OttawaSaint]

Is Twar in cold storage to break out at the right moment?

I wonder if they'll dial the MLG account back a bit, he's become a characature of himself with the way over the top pedantry and gifs.

Do the mods still get together for curry nights? Bet the Bantz is off the scale.

This really is impressive! I mean, how DOES he balance those balls on top of each other?

Years ago, on one of the Stoneham Lane pitches, I watched Terry Paine do something similar, hitting a sixpence stuck to the crossbar, time after time with both feet. It was a pre-season 'fans day' or something.

That's it! Thank you, The Cat, I knew there had to be an explanation for some of the utter bilge!

Sign up Sarr - just scored from inside his own half 🙂

Aye although would also settle for Dennis, or Pedro

That Watford front 3 is better than anything we can put out.

Don't let him take penalties though 🙂

Guess no longer a thing ‘ for those of you watching in black and white’? Sheffield We’d V Sunderland identical blue stripes v red

[LiberalCommunist]

As we fast approach mid August, you just know we are overdue a sacking already.

So, who's going first, Stevie G or the Ralph. One of them is walking the plank right now. 

Can't see either of them saving themselves this weekend, but I reckon Everton's board are braver than ours.

I guess you mean Lampard? I think talk of Everton's demise is a bit premature, they'll be fine this season and may surprise a few on the way.

[LiberalCommunist]

Yeah, I've kind of mixed them together, but they both have merits of their own.

Someone is getting canned this weekend.

Ralph

Steve

Frank

No way all three survive.

Came on on the hour, has made no impact whatsoever.  I've barely heard his name.

Agreed, pretty dreadful debut. Hopefully just needs game time.

[SNSUN]

Aston Villa playing a weird 4-1-2-1-2 formation, Everton have Iwobi in central midfield and no strikers. Interesting tactics from two of the best former midfielders the Premier League has ever seen.

[nta786]

Danny Ings, swivel, turn, thumping left footed finish and goal. 1-0 Villa

[AlexLaw76]

Typical Ings goal 

[Midfield_General]

Fantastic goal from Ings

[HarvSFC]

Exactly what we’ve been missing. Creates the chance and puts it away.

[AlexLaw76]

Never understand why the refs stop the game like he did there?

Doucore could have easily just walked off the pitch. 

[SNSUN]

One more Villa goal and we're off the bottom! 

[bpsaint]

Decent finish from Ings. To think some of the clowns on here said they wouldn’t take him back….

[skintsaint]

Everton look tommy tank.

They've done OK with their defence but their midfield is weaker than ours and their attack is non-existent. They are definitely relegation fodder unless they invest before the window is out.

[Guest]

Mings starting too today.

[AlexLaw76]

Man United getting their arses handed to them.  

[Klaus Schwab]

Man united tho…

 

makes our defence look really good 

looks like Ben 10 hag’s version of total football is working well

[Baird of the land]

Now please Saints don't try and defend when we get to play utd. Attack them in a 4.

[RedArmy]

Thomas Frank. 
 

Should have gone after him in the summer. 

[AlexLaw76]

3-0

😃

[Baird of the land]

Brentford have made some really good signings but i didn't expect this.

[jamesfp1]

Hahahahahahahahah

[RedArmy]

Hahahhaha 4 

[AlexLaw76]

🤣

4-0

that was a cracking breakaway goal.  Pace and power

[Baird of the land]

LOL

[Winnersaint]

Red Cafe is a fucking hoot atm.

 

[The Cat]

This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time.

[skintsaint]

Utd playing 3 at the back as well?

[adrian lord]

Joyous. 

[SNSUN]

With Leicester starting the season slowly, no signings and possibly having players sold and United getting spanked by everyone, our next two fixtures aren't looking as tough as they did two weeks ago! Still...

[BotleySaint]

Whatever happened to Maguire, it's time to admit it's not getting better. He'd struggle in a walking football league. Hopefully he's not picked for England.

I'm actually feeling a little sorry for them now.. totally dysfunctional football club.

Be certain both will get first wins of the season. Its the Saints way.

I thought that a week ago after tough Spurs game. Leeds(almost relegated), Leicester(lost best RB & Keeper, signed no one), Man Utd(not really recruited well) seems a rather average premier league run & was wondering what this messaging of it being an impossible start was about. As others said we'll probably make them look like world beater but we can hope.

Holy meltdown Batman!

Been doing DIY, so offline/away from radio etc for a bit. I did the mother of all double takes at the Man Utd score. Fuck me, that's hilarious!

[John Boy Saint]

McGuire in the refs ear once more - Attwells reaction hands on his head looked “oh do stop whining on”. 😁
