As my “no prediction” predictions aren’t working this year, it’s time to put my money where my mouth is.
Apart from the fact we probably need a result for confidence, I reckon we may surprise the tit rubbers and get a W or a D at least.
Although Liverpool were obviously tired, our performance was pretty good mister and considering THAT miss, should have gotten something out of the game.
I reckon Ralph needs to say “Fuck the opposition’s formation, let’s rock n roll” but let’s face it, that would make us more Blackpool than Southampton. It may be the way to pick up points for the remainder of the season, not 10 games from the end when we are battling relegation.
He also needs to settle on his defensive pairing as I say start with 2 CB’s and you can always move to 3.
NB we will not be battling relegation its two games in lost away and then lost to the european champions just.
Lets wait until end of bazza’s month to condemn the team and managment.
Please don’t change the thread title on match threads. They get pinned globally. They’re pinned so that newcomers see as a Saints site first, and not a fucking madhouse.
That realisation should rightfully dawn on day two
It’s a game of football. Its that old fart vs a mistake from our defence, static Dunk vs not up to it yet Che.
Will I be working? How can I find more passing Saudis to ask to see their phones to let Ings score?
I really need more sleep.
I do worry how well Brighton have started the season under the new manager.
I think it should be known as the post-Hughton bounce.
I remember Pardew being the beneficiary of it at Newcastle. Hughton have made them defensively amazing but his Pellegrino-esque reluctance to try to win matches got him the heave-ho.
The new manager then comes in and reaps the benefits of Hughton’s amazing defensive coaching but gives them a bit more freedom.
No you can’t, you’ll offend half of the regular Sotonians posters who will feel obliged to “like” your comment to cover their sexual proclivities.
Answering for several friends.
Not looking good … Mr Friend is the wanker in black and will be (un)ably assisted by Mr Mason on VAR. Fucking doomed I tell ya!! The only saving grace is that we aren’t playing LFC or MUFC so they may struggle figuring out who the top dog is out of us to favour. The deciding factor could be which fans give the best pre match Bell End Noshing … any volunteers on here to compete against Brightons seasoned (salty) cum gobblers?
