If, like Sue (and me) you are coming into Victoria station, there are two Wetherspoons which open early. There’s one on Victoria station concourse and another just outside the station on Wilton Rd. It’s Wetherspoons but they’re both ok. Yeah, I'm prepped for that. Going into Waterloo so I'll get breakfast/brunch and then be in the pubs from midday.

Being a cheapskate and retired I'm not adverse to the odd 'Spoons pint. I'm sure we won't be the only Saints fans going via Victoria! I think my train gets in at around 11.30 and is one of the quicker ones, some seem to be 20 minutes slower. I need to sort out some red and white ribbon for my crutch!

Interesting I'd also heard commentators go on about the pitch size so assumed it was bigger, anyway those northern melts will still be getting a spanking, until the team is revealed of course, then we are fucked until the sexy nuns come out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teamsaint1 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 (edited) FWIW the bookies have Leeds as quite strong favourites, As ever, some terrible prices on offer. I like Edozie, but with Adam Armstrong at 6/1 first scorer, 11/1 Edozie looks poor value., with Kamaldeen the same price !! Smallbone at 16/1 looks worth considering though.Stephens at 66/1 looks value, .Mara is 8/1 .No, really. anyway, I won’t be jinxing any of our brave lads.

This will be a rugged match and not that attractive to watch, too much at stake and too few of our players will be able to rise to the occasion. These are not circumstances that suit our style at all and if we go one down early on the chances are we will not be able to respond. Sadly, I think we will lose out by the odd goal. 1-0 to Leeds.

Surely he wouldn’t post this if he wasn’t fit and ready to go? Wonder if we will find out about Ross Stewart too in the presser, not seen him in any of the pics or vids on socials. He needs to read the script, he’s supposed to score the winning goal on Sunday to make his transfer make sense!

The script could be set for Che though, his last goal for us is one that takes us up. The whole Stewart situation is pissing me off a bit, exactly the same happened when he made his tiny sub appearance in November - took a knock, vanished from training and wasn't seen again until May. It's getting to the stage now where we just have to move on from him for good, isn't it? I really hope the club don't have any daft ideas that we already have our 'Che' replacement in the building.

Prior to his achilles injury he was out for several months with a hamstring injury so by the time we start next season he won’t have played any meaningful football for 18 months.

Big question now is whether he starts or do we save him as an option off the bench?

gio1saints Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 I’m going with the official Saints travel coaches. Not done that since I joined something to do with Saints away support away travel back in the mid eighties. Anyone know if the coach quality has changed since then?

hypochondriac Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 (edited) The last away coach I went on was derby away in the playoff game. Had the dubious pleasure of viewing badboysaint's half naked obese body throughout the journey as he started fights with everyone. I heard he's in prison now which is the least surprising news ever.

Saint Keef Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 ......or is Che back? or is Stewart back? I sincerely hope so, but lets be honest, anyone can show them kicking a football in training gear and say what they want in a presser to confuse the opposition. The guy I think we have missed more that anyone is Stuey Armstrong. It felt like he was getting back to his best. Has there been any mention of him?
