Point taken about the food.
I was more concentrating on your mild moan up about the early start.
Unfortunately it is what it is now, and the only way round it is to watch on TV I suppose ?
It’s a pity that the rivalry between us can’t be more like Liverpool and Everton’s.
Who knows, one day in the distant future it may well be. |

It is possibly over the top Southampton fan.
However, on the other hand it’s only one match and if it stops you or anybody else ending up in A and E because some loony Portsmouth fan wants to pick you out for a kicking is it not the sensible way to go ?
Equally, it greatly reduces the chances of some over zealous Hampshire Plod arresting fans for no reason in particular, ending in them having a completely unnecessary criminal record with all the problems that go with it.
As for getting up early. I don’t go to away matches anymore ( to old ) but last time we played Leeds away didn’t the coaches leave at 04.30 for a 12.00 kick off ? |

What on earth is a matter with anyone who thinks it a good idea to throw a brick at a coach ?
Particularly after a good match where W B A contributed on the pitch and with their fans being as far as I could tell, good natured in defeat.
Utterly moronic behaviour from a pathetic knuckle dragging village idiot. |

I believe the official attendance was 26865.
Looking around the stadium and given that this figure would include season ticket holders who didn’t turn up together with a lack of W B A fans,I would suggest that the actual number was nearer to 25000.
Understandable given the game was the second played at home in a week and on a school night just before Christmas plus also shown on TV. Not forgetting the filthy weather during the day. [Post edited 10 Dec 8:56]

I thought that when I went to Highbury to see Saints play Everton in an F A Cup Semi Final in the early eighties.
We were flying in the league and had some high quality players, Everton were mediocre at best.
Another Wembley final was a formality.
Couldn’t lose.
Big Mac played Steve Williams when he wasn’t fit and we lost to an Adrian Heath header in the final few minutes.
Biggest post match fight I’ve ever seen with police horses on the pitch after the final whistle.
I’ve never taken any game we play in for granted from that day onward. |

Yep, that’s Bazball for you.
Just a ridiculous name for impatient slogging by a team that apart from Root and Stokes ( when he applies himself ) are at best average and at worst no hopers.
And we are being humiliated by an under strength Australia at that. |

Bazunu has been beaten with shots from outside of the box more times than I care to remember.
It can’t be coached out of him apparently and that’s one of the reasons why he is simply not good enough. |

I once watched it avidly, not any more however because It’s now over hyped nonsense.
I believe I’m correct in saying that a couple of weeks ago two cars were disqualified after a race because the wooden skid boards under them were not thick enough.
When tested the discrepancy was found to be the thickness of a human hair or so it was suggested. |

Thread | What was Bazunu doing for their winning goal ?
at 19:45 29 Nov 2025
Twice beaten from outside the big box, although their second goal was mainly down to Aribo for standing off and turning away from the shot.
Third goal, he didn’t go for the cross or alternately make himself “ big “ at the near post.
He’s at best an average keeper and at worst a liability.
Who knows the number of points that between them he and McCarthy have cost us. |

Surprised nobody else has mentioned him:-
Jimmy Greaves, simply because he made goal scoring look so easy.
He never appeared to hit the ball hard and just stroked it into the net. |

I watched the game on T V so couldn’t see all of what he “contributed”.
Nonetheless, from what I did see on the TV, the thing that frustrates me is that when he looses the ball he doesn’t tackle back. He appears to simply give up and amble about.
Not certain but I believe the commentary suggested that he has a four year contract with us. Hmm. |

Given the nature of his sides defeat and what the result must have meant to him, I thought that he was very gracious towards us in his post match interview.
A few moans about being without injured players and of course a loan deal excluded Bree, but overall he redeemed himself a good deal by accepting that we were simply better and deserved to win. |

I hope that Bazunu is better today than Bazball was in Australia.
Takes some doing to lose a test match in less than two complete days.
And the Poms played without arguably their best player and captain. |

I suspect that in those circumstances Eckert will be out of the door and Lallana will be given the gig on an “ interim “ basis.
Rinse and repeat with Sports Republic having paid Eckert very little (if any) compensation, for losing his original job, just like Rusk. |

Come on Pat, the loons never communicate properly to the fans about anything vaguely football related.
On the other hand if they had extended the Fun Fair with a Hellter Skellter we would all have had two or three emails by now. |

Will England win it ? No.
They will do what they always do :-
Walk the qualifiers.
Get drawn in an easy group and beat a load of no hopers.
Fold at first exposure to any decent team.
Return home with tales of “ if only.”
Exactly the same as every major competition since 1966.
It’s the English professional footballers way. Over paid Serial Losers. [Post edited 17 Nov 11:16]
