Yes, but "His hair's like Baldrick out of Blackadder (the first series)" doesn't really scan as well.

Jack Stephens
at 09:54 29 May 2024

It was interesting that while everyone was else was charging off down the pitch to celebrate with the fans, Jack Stephens and KWP had the humility to console the distraught Leeds players. The shot of Jack with the Leeds guy reminded me of the iconic Freddie Flintoff/Brett Lee photo from the 2005 Ashes.
Jack plays some stupid passes (and did so twice in the first few minutes on Sunday) but what he brings to the team often outweighs the odd mistake. Trouble is, most people don't see the good things and only pick up on the bad. No-one will ever know if we would have gone up without the much maligned 'shoehorning of Jack Stephens'. Indeed, maybe we would have even gone up automatically. But by hook or by crook we did go up, and so Russell Martin's decision has been vindicated. I doubt if Jack will change, and no doubt his odd mistake will be capitalised even more in the Premier League next season, but I hope that everyone might cut him a bit of slack if and when it does.

I was at the car park bash and I didn't get the impression he wants to play for West Ham. I got the impression he was so pissed he didn't know where he was, let alone who he wants to play for.

Could Adam Lallana Make A Surprise Return To Southampton

Purely on the basis that the vast majority of people on this forum have been wrong about almost everything over the past year, yes we should bring Lallana back.

Will you be writing to 'Wussell' to apologise for all the sh*t you've given him all season?

I thought their fans were incredible inside the stadium, especially just before the match with their scarves and the Marching On song. Outside the stadium was a bit different though. Maybe we just got off of the tube at the wrong time but virtually every Leeds fan on Wembley Way seemed to be a pissed up middle aged bloke acting like they owned the place and constantly singing that "we are Leeds, we are vile...' song about the PM.

I wonder what J W P honestly thought at 17.00 yesterday.
at 09:13 27 May 2024

At 1700 yesterday he was probably thinking the same as us: "when's the ref going to blow his f*cking whistle?"

Matt Le Tissier To Play In Saints Legend Side On Saturday At Totton.
at 08:30 25 May 2024

My first thought is that the Simon Says team is badly lacking leaders. They've changed their entire system to accommodate young Illingsworth, but while he's undoubtedly a good club man, he's blatantly not up to it at this level of charity football. After all, if he was any good, why hasn't another charity team, such as Dogs Trust Rovers or the Cats Protection League Wanderers come in for him?
Seriously though, have a great day Nick, and perhaps try to stay away from Psycho, you don't want to be watching the big game tomorrow in Soton General.

Interesting question, would you ever want Saints to lose a match?
at 17:33 22 May 2024

Whilst not exactly wanting Saints to lose, I was at Stamford Bridge in the 1970s when a home win wasn't exactly the worst result from a personal health point of view.

Russell Martin Sunak
at 10:07 22 May 2024

Saw on Twitter that some Leeds fans were saying that Sunak was jumping on the football bandwagon, and that the whole country would be behind Leeds now Sunak was claiming to be a Saints fan. They've obviously not noticed that Sunak was born and brought up in Soton and is a lifelong fan of the club. Furthermore, if Vladimir Putin, Fred West and Ghengis Khan all came out and confessed their love for Southampton FC, the rest of the world would still want Leeds to lose on Sunday. Except for the inbreds down the road, obviously.

Have Leeds fans been able to get tickets in the Southampton end?
at 09:56 21 May 2024

Given that there are 468 million Leeds United fans (and that's just in Leeds itself), there's obviously going to be one or two who sneak in to our end. They'll be easily identified when they complain about the lack of bread & dripping at the food stall.

When did players start arriving for home games in a bus? Don't most of them live in Ocean Village? Hardly worth the bother. If they can't be arsed to walk or drive couldn't they hire those electric scooter things?

5 Things About West Brom
at 14:32 13 May 2024

Sky seemed to turn up the microphones every time Will Smallbone took a corner. The Harry Potter chant wasn't particularly funny or original the first time they did it, but after the fourth or fifth corner I was rather hoping the commentator might explain why they were singing it, and why alopecia's not really a laughing matter.

5 Things From Saturday
at 11:54 29 Apr 2024

1. He constantly talks about being 'brave'. Surely a genuinely brave thing to do would be to drop the players who've constantly failed to impress, and instead bring in Meghoma, SAA and Dibling.

2. It does make you wonder who thought it was a good idea to employ a band to play outside the ground at the end of a game when everyone just wants to troop off home or to the pub to be miserable. The club seem so out of touch with reality it's quite alarming.

3. In the main we're a fickle bunch. If we get through the play-off semis the interest will pick up just as quick as it dropped off. Anyway, if we play Leeds at Wembley I'm sure some of their 300 billion fans can fill the empty blocks.

4. It's not ideal, but at least they care.

5. Better get Le Tiss warmed up then...

A message from Brighton Buddha to Nick
at 15:27 24 Apr 2024

Some of our moves this season have been incredible to watch, like going back to the Keegan era, and I think the majority of the team can play that way. Unfortunately, it does rely on everyone being on the top of their game, all the time. If the confidence goes and players start to go missing, the whole thing breaks down and we don't appear to have the players to win the ball back when we give it away.
