We have been to quite a few away games this season, but I have yet to take them to St Marys At the time of buying, I thought we would be relegated this season, but I also thought we would have put up a bit of a fight. I'll be travelling down on the train form London, and as it stands, I just have no desire to goto to the game and make the journey down. Need to make my mind up soon, as will need to buy the train tickets This may helps to make your decision easier, engineering works on South West Trains from London to Basingstoke and Winchester this weekend 🤔🫤 Like you I bought my ticket ages ago, hoping for a last ditch survival day like we used to have at the Dell. Should have known better. I'll be going because if it takes 7 years to get back up to the Premiership like it did last time, bloody hell I'll be 76 by then and I might not be arsed to go any more at that great age 😒. Actually I can only just about be arsed to go nowadays anyway 🫤 3
Patrick Bateman Posted 26 May, 2023 Posted 26 May, 2023 End of season is usually rubbish anyway, this even more so, should just play rush goalies.
Professor Posted 26 May, 2023 Posted 26 May, 2023 Good riddance to the so called 'premier league'. Not a competition when only one of about 4 teams can win. If an exception happens, such as Leicester, they soon get brought down to earth. Teams that reach the fringe of the top six, as Saints did a few managers back, as Brighton have this year, are soon stripped of their assets. Van Dijk, Mane, Shaw, etc. The Championship is a real competition. The sad thing about it is that the team that wins is relegated to the premier league, and has to start again. It's ironic that so many of the players who celebrate as they are awarded the Championship trophy, will be told by their club that they are no longer wanted. Notts Forest bought 22 players to create a team that would spend the season losing games and only avoid relegation because other teams were even worse. How much fun have Forest fans had this season? How sad to be celebrating 16th place in the table. 7

Mattster Posted 26 May, 2023 Posted 26 May, 2023 Quote I’m not used to games on the last matchday where everything is sorted before. I can’t remember when that last time was the case. We only play this game to win the game and we have to make sure that I find a lineup with good legs, a lot of desire and we have to see … we will not take any risks with players. That makes no sense. Klopp in the presser earlier - sounds like we can expect the C team on Sunday, if that - which will make things even more of a damp squib IMO.

Our chances of winning the Premier League may be staggeringly small, but if they arent even trying to do that, then all you are watching is 11 men running around kicking a ball. There has to be a point to it all! 6

Pamplemousse Posted 27 May, 2023 Posted 27 May, 2023 https://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=354292.40 They sound enthusiastic. Could be amusing in their away end (and most of our home section probably...) if Everton do get relegated

In the Championship that possibility just about vanishes - since West Ham won the FA Cup in 1980 only one other lower division side has won a major trophy, and that was Sheffield Wednesday in 1991. Since I want Saints to win a trophy for my sons who have never seen us win any silverware apart from the JPT I am desperate for us to be in the Premier League. 2

We must all be desperate for more this season I would wager!

SaintZamboni Posted 27 May, 2023 Posted 27 May, 2023 I think the best value for money in this would be to represent the season. Start the game with Ralph in charge. Let him pick the team and start us off gegenpress. We should pull him after 55 minutes and give Mad Nate a ten minute spell to throw on tall Paul, Bree, Bednarak. Be the most front footed and aggressive team in Europe before he gets the hook. Selles can finish the game by having us do fuck all of use and playing Aribo and Elyo as our main two attacking players. Make it clear in 90 minutes why this seasons been a nightmare. 1 3

FarehamSaintJames Posted 28 May, 2023 Posted 28 May, 2023 So here we go again. One last hurrah. One last sigh. One last giggle. Lovely day on the sunny south coast. Plenty of time to enjoy the bank holiday weekend. Plenty of time to concede nine goals again. But I doubt we will. 5-0 to Liverpool, Firmino and Salah to score, one of which will get a hat trick. These big questions need answering: Will Russell Martin be there? Will JWP get his two free kicks to clinch a new record? Will Ruben Selles do a lap of the pitch? Will Rasmus Ankersen watch on from Denmark? Will JWP wave goodbye to the fans? Will Alex McCarthy let a goal in at his near post? Will most of the fans applaud the players for their pitiful efforts this season? Will you cope with no football for two months? Happy Final Matchday! 😅 1

Saint Matty 76 Posted 28 May, 2023 Posted 28 May, 2023 Couldn't be fucked to go to this one myself. By the sounds of it Liverpool aren't playing Alisson, Robertson and van Dijk at the very least so maybe we'll be able to enjoy one last day.

rallyboy Posted 28 May, 2023 Posted 28 May, 2023 Goodbye Premier League, not sure I'll really miss you, it's not been right for a long time. Yeah, I wanted you, but you turned out to be style over substance, a weekly battle to keep our heads above mediocrity, and those last few years have been like like domestic abuse. Oh I know, there were a few highlights, the odd win, some good times, but I cannot recall one that left more of an impression on me than the horrendous turgid soul-destroying home performances of recent years. It's been toxic, sideways, pointless, backwards, gutless - and now we're through I don't even care, I just want to find some happiness. So keep your stupid kick off times and your VAR, keep your dodgy refs shafting us, keep your fucking light show, your cardboard signs asking for shirts, your ridiculous handball rules and your away fans in the home sections, I'm off to try and rediscover a bit of joy. Bye. 9
Turkish Posted 28 May, 2023 Posted 28 May, 2023 (edited) Game week 38 is finally here and this means the end of our 11 year stint at the pinnacle of soccerball. Look forward to seeing what traps Rueben sets, if we can achieve turnovers as we break the lines to get the ball up to our false nine on the edge of red zone. will be go for a low or high block? It’s fascinating Isn’t it Would be great if we could have a goal disallowed by VAR today to really go out in style, a win on XG would be great today even if we do lose by the real score Adios premier let’s suck in our last breath of premier league soccerball for at least a season.

gordonToo Posted 28 May, 2023 Posted 28 May, 2023 Not sure why Elyonoussi gets so much bad press here. At least he tries and is professional about it in that he follows instructions which is more than can be said for some. 1 1
