Because they’ll be well up for it and want a proper fucking scrap. We’ll show them round the garden centre and have a swiss roll and a cup of tea.

Welcome to the dark side, its shit but its reality.
Agreed.
Glad we pushed up the pitch anyway.
This is clearly nonsense but deserves a “like” for some lovely turn of phrase.
Our daytripper inbred fans always leave early for the rugby or have to pick up Violet from Cello practice…
Ward Prowse loves a tulip and Redmond can wait for the roses season…
I’ll be there too which will be another -ve, I have never seen Saints win away from home, ever.
Does the FA Cup semi final at Villa count?
Time to break that ridiculous duck then
Poor error for the goal. That was the only chance they had in the second half. Bollocks.
Loudest I’ve heard the Saints fans all season. Itchen North take a bow.

Yeah, this. Played bloody well for the great majority of the time after going down to 10. Shame no one gave him a shout. Support was excellent.

Most of the crowd noise in the first half was probably me swearing like a docker with a stubbed toe

Oh, and my favourite chant of the season so far:
To Shelvey:
“He’s coming for you!
He’s coming for you!
Harry Potter, he’s coming for you!”

This, many times over. Valery played that ball as if he had plenty of time. He didn’t, as Saint-Maximin was coming in behind him fast. He could very easily have nodded the ball back to McCarthy, but chose to take it on his chest. Saint-Maximin nipped in and nicked the ball, and we all know the rest.
But, if he’d had a shout from a fellow defender (or from McCarthy, for that matter), he’d surely have played it differently.
Other than that I thought we were excellent. Leaving aside the merits of the sending-off (all I saw of it was the brief glimpse to show what the VAR wankers had seen, shown once in normal time on the big screens at the ground), we played three quarters of that match with ten men to their eleven. Prior to their goal we did a decent job of keeping them at arm’s length, and caused them a few problems when we broke. In the circumstances we played as we had to - containment, always on the lookout for a quick break, but not the high-octane press that we prefer.
Ings was just insanely good today.

Which means he’ll be sold to Arsenal in 3 months.

Thats true, but believe it sweetheart I love the badge.
The badge ain’t enough…you have to love it all.
No I don’t, the badge is enough, the players? Fuck that they probably would move at the first opportunity, the manager? Yes I like him but he’ll fuck off, the ground? No its soulless, the badge for me is the identity of where I’m from, my history, the constant.
