Most people round me thought the Tall Paul song was funny. And from my spot in the Northam the away fans are definitely quieter than they were last season. If and when Saints starting winning (big if) I reckon the atmosphere will be great in the Northam. |

The reason most of us don't boycott games is because we actually love going to games, meeting up with mates, having a beer and a laugh. Yes we are all desperate to see Saints do well, and sometimes during really bad times we do wonder if it's all worth the time and money, but most of us have been around long enough to know that in general the bad times eventually get better, and equally the good times don't last very long. That's one of the occupational hazards of following a team like Saints. If fans simply stopped going because the team was crap, or because they didn't like the manager, the club would have folded decades ago. Fortunately the vast majority aren't like that. |

Is this the same manager who would probably have been sacked a fortnight ago if the officials hadn't made some terrible decisions in his team's favour. As always, you have all the answers but absolutely no solutions. |

Our style of play does have its benefits. As an old git with a dodgy bladder it's a comfort to know that I can go for a slash at any point in a game and by the time I get back to my seat the ball will still be roughly in the same part of the field. |

I'm really pleased for the folks who say that £30 (plus booking fee) is reasonable for a game just before Xmas that's on TV and we will probably get stuffed in. I'm glad they're all doing well. Unfortunately not everyone is in the same financial position, especially at this time of the year. |

So you're implying that the players deliberately disobeyed the manager's instructions in order to score that goal? Just out of interest, what do you think the manager was expecting them to do in that particular situation? |

After the bus fares went up to £3 the other day I was considering buying a private jet, but now I shall be thinking again. |

Vincent bloody Pericard. Oh how we laughed when he played for Pompey reserves at St Mary's and somehow hit the scoreboard from about three yards out. Oh how we wept a couple of years later when we signed him on loan. |

Since most Man City games these days end up as little more than exhibition matches, they should really be re-named the 'Haaland Globetrotters'. |

What's the point in lobbing high balls to Archer when he's being marked by a 6'5" defender? Ramsdale's passes were on the whole pretty good, but it does rely on the player he's passing the ball to being able to control it, and also that player having someone to lay it off to, and, more importantly on Saturday, a referee who actually gives free kicks when a defender tries to kick our forwards up in the air. |

Probably the biggest cheer at the Legends game today was when Le Tiss came on as sub. He slotted home a penalty with familiar consumate ease and was still signing autographs half an hour after the game had finished. He may have a few mad ideas that people don't agree with, but he's very much still worshipped in these parts. |

Why should anyone care where the song comes from? It's not like it's an SS marching song from WW2. Besides, didn't Liverpool nick it off a foreign team originally? |

1. I noticed that my side of the Northam (the left side) do tend to sing different songs to the right side. Perhaps to revive that away fans 'bounce off' you talk of, Saints should re-install the black mesh down the middle of the stand and both sides of the Northam should start hurling abuse at each other. Shouldn't be too difficult, the right-siders look a right ugly bunch of c***s. 3. We don't bother with the footbridge anymore, we go up Britannia Road and across the road bridge. Not only does this save time but you get a lovely view of the newly opened swimming pool where the gasometer used to be. 4. Didn't see a seagull but a butterfly flew across the Northam End during the match. I'm no expert, but I think it was a white one. 5. And we warm up at the Northam End now too. |

Again, just out of interest, who would you have started instead of Archer? |

Out of interest, what substitutions would you have made? |

I can't believe that I actually agree with I_Would for once. Normally I think he's an unhinged, ill informed, vindictive idiot whose views are totally worthless, but I do concur about our free kicks and corners. If only we had someone who could drop the ball on a sixpence in the opposition area or bang one in from 25 yards. I think what I_Would is really getting at is that we need James Ward-Prowse back. |
