Thread | Great Southampton V Liverpool Games Of The Past
by SaintNick at 13:06 22 Nov 2024
Their have been some great fixtures both at the Dell & St Mary's in the past, who can remember some of them.
The 4-2 game in October 1989 springs to mind, 4-1 to Saints when Liverpool were at the peak of their powers.
Likewise Valentines Day 1994 when in the snow we beat them 4-2.
August 2000 when 3-0 down with 17 minutes to go we came back to draw 3-3 was another memorable game.
Who can remember these and what other games were classics |

Thread | Russell Martin is David Brent times 10

God, this is a cringey watch.
“Rhino”
“Tay”
What we need is a manager with some gravitas, who the players will fear.
What we have is a bloke who just wants to be their highly-paid mate.
God, it almost makes me pine for Hassenhutl.

Thread | Following Man City 's Style is Fundamentally Flawed and Must stop Now
by Flamingbankers at 11:33 20 Nov 2024
I had a look ( long delayed through sheer resignation, I know) at the Premier League's own statistics - to finally cement most of what most of us know and I'm no professional statistician- I saw the following 'hard facts'.
In 'Passes Backward' we were second in the league table to Man City (MC).
For 'Long Passes' we were third from bottom while MC were second to bottom ( Dr Tottenham were bottom).
For 'Total Passes' we were second with 5,961 while MC were top with (substantially more which also says something) with 7,057.
These three categories, in conjunction with the obvious one's like points, goals scored and goals conceded, are the clearest indicators of Saints disastrous tactics and strategies.
We're also 4th from bottom for crosses - that's to be expected - but that's no absolute indicator of failure because Liverpool are a place below us.
So the conclusion has to be that playing like MC, without the players to do the job effectively, will lead to failure rather than success.
Not massively complicated science but a common sense analysis - that Saints management have apparently, and incredibly, ignored this, thus are complicit in damaging the club ( along with other reasons we're beginning to understand) rather than acting in it's interests. And the Saints fans are the guardians or last barrier to failure.
Many fans have seen this for a long time and correct - despite all the apologists, naysayers, ostriches and lackies (who have made a quiet and steady turn around, as usual) and club propaganda.
Change needs to come now otherwise there's no knowing how far Saints will slip and the damage it will cause. The fans are in the worst position than anyone in management or club because they invest so much individually but having next to no say in the sham/debacle happening in front of their eyes. We should be challenging the likes of Bournemouth, Brighton and Brentford; not slipping ever further behind them. |

Still 4 weeks to go but about 9,000 tickets still left, surprisingly the Northam End accounts for about half that number |

Thread | Such sad news about legendary Dave Watson
by GRIM at 09:12 18 Nov 2024
Before the England game started yesterday they did a feature on Dave Watson who is now suffering Dementia.
How sad to see him as he is now, I'll always remember him as a giant in the game.
At the time he was probably the best centre back in the game.
We were lucky enough to see him play for us albeit at the end of his memorable career.
Best wishes Dave & thanks for the memories. |

Good to see him score tonight.
That’s him gone in the summer, if not before. |

Thread | Shea Charles captained his National side last night
by GRIM at 12:31 16 Nov 2024
It would appear that Shea Charles is impressing in his loan spell at Sheff Wed.
It looks inevitable that we'll recall him in January ( assuming we have that option).
What's the chances of his goalkeeping brother who's also impressing for club & country joining him at St Mary's. |
