Thread | The crowd
by kingslandstand1 at 12:46 28 Feb 2026
Nick moans about our attendances, but watching the Leicester Norwich game, there seems to be quite a few gaps.
I see also they had a big demonstration before the game as well about the ownership |

Thread | Watford at Bristol
by kingslandstand1 at 20:36 27 Feb 2026
Watford winning at present which os probably the better final score for us, putting them only 1 point ahead. City would be 3 points ahead and as I say that City equalise! |

Thread | The by-election result
by PatfromPoole at 08:29 27 Feb 2026
Looks to me that we are heading for a coalition government in a couple of years.
Only question is whether it will be;
- Labour / Lib Dems / Greens, or;
- Tories / Reform
What a mess.
This could all have been avoided if Starmer and Reeves (who I voted for 2 years ago) hadn’t made such a shitshow of things. |

COOKING burgers? Don't waste money on expensive frying pans. Simply fill the water nozzle on your clothes iron with cooking oil, set the dial to linen & iron the burger for 2 minutes on each side |

Thread | Bree becoming a big cheese
by Jellybaby at 19:51 26 Feb 2026
I always considered Bree a championship journeyman, I was slightly surprised he was shipped out at the start of the season, but not particularly bothered and assumed his replacements would be upgrades.
But his return to the team has been part of the team's transformation - his extra height, his crosses, his goals, his calmness. He suddenly looks like one of our best players.
As positive as this is - it does make his loaning out seem completely ridiculous and costly point-wise.
Maybe it was the Nathan Jones effect on him that reinvigorated him! |

Thread | Championship Play-off dates
by Whatsforpud at 15:00 26 Feb 2026
If we get that far, I see the play-off final will be on 23rd May. They haven't yet said what dates the semi-finals are on. Based on previous experience, when do people reckon they will be played. Need to organise my calendar. |

Thread | Rich "Squib" Scovell
by franniesTache at 11:57 26 Feb 2026
I know this board tends to attract a certain "generation" of saints so figured some of you might know him.
A mate text last night to say that Rich "Squib/Squibby" passed away this week, he was an old school saints fan who hadn't been much recently, a local cabbie and a huge england and aampshire cricket fan.
Lovely bloke and really sad to hear he's passed

We beat Walsall at home in League One
The score was 5-3 with goals from Jason Puncheon, Lee Barnard (2) Rickie Lambert & Adam Lallana.
For those that sing "Our Saviour Markus Liebherr" he wasn't being acclaimed by many in this game only 20,461 were present |

Thread | Getting to the play offs
by DorsetIan at 22:24 25 Feb 2026
We've achieved phase one of getting to 'best of the rest' 7th place but with Millwall, Ipswich, Hull and Wrexhm all in form, making that step into the top 6 is going to require consistency and patience.
The beginning of April sees us play Ipswich at home then Wrexham away and we still need to be within striking distance by then.
Interesting Hull play Portsmouth on Saturday but then face their three play off colleagues in successive games.
I think we can get to 6th but one of the 4 immediately above us is going to need a dip while we don't have one.
Come on Tonda - you can do it!

Thread | Football Has To Be For Everyone
by SaintNick at 21:55 25 Feb 2026
Quote from German legend Uli Hoeneß
“Former Bayern president Uli Hoeneß:
"We could charge more than €120 per season ticket. If we charge €350 per season ticket we would get €2m extra, but what does that mean for us?
The difference for a fan between €120 and €350 is enormous and we do not believe that fans are like cows, which are milked.
Football has to be for everyone. That is the biggest difference between us and England." |

Thread | Give Slack Jack some slack
by GRIM at 18:29 25 Feb 2026
I've been one of Slack Jack's biggest critics but credit where its due he's done a very steady job since he got back into the side.
I think the fact that Tonda has done away with the 3 ctr back system has helped us defensively, both Jack & THB look better lined up as just 2 ctr backs with 2 conventional full backs making up the back four..
What also helps is having a keeper that organises his defence. |
