It's a funny old game is football...
at 15:05 23 Jan 2025

It's the same with Forest.

They regularly have less than 50% of possession in games.

But they have a very good defence with two excellent CB's.

And they play quick on the break, with fast counter-attacks.

Boscombe are much the same, again two excellent CB's and pace on the counter-attack.

It gladdens me that week by week, the credibility of nonsensical tippy-tappy football is being ripped to shreds.

Sulemane injured so not available for Newcastle
at 15:01 23 Jan 2025

Refer you to the thread which I have just "bumped"...

He won't want to go back to the Championship.

At least his decent showing at Old Trafford should hopefully enable us to sell him and get most of the ridiculous amount we shelled out on him.

Bump.

And there we are.

Out on Saturday due to a hamstring injury.

SELL.

I trust that Chelsea have no sell-on clause (?).

Unless he is any good and, as with Alderweireld, we get stitched up when one of the big boys come calling.

I'm thinking a variation of "Delilah" by Tom Jones, as stolen by Stoke.

With a crescendo of "Bar Bar Bar Bar Mitzvah" instead of "My My My Delilah" etc....

Albert Looks the Ticket

Basic rule.

Do not ever ever ever rely on a You Tube montage for a player.

We thought Agustin Delgado was going to be the next Pele when he signed for us, basically based on his You Tube video.

The only You Tube video I can ever recall being accurate was Onuachu. It was a reel of a number of his goals, and I could tell straight away that he was going to be a lumbering carthorse. He scored one of the worst hat-tricks I have seen.

Still, I hope you are right re Albert!!

I refer you to my thread of Top 3 Albert's.

Albert Gronbaek is currently at No. 4, just behind Bert of Sesame Street fame.

However, a swashbuckling cameo of a performance on Saturday against Barcodes could see him move into a podium position.

I guess our last few home matches in the League could be a factor:-

Southampton 1 Chelsea 4
Southampton 0 Tottenham 5
Southampton 0 West Ham 1
Southampton 0 Brentford 5

I am going on Saturday, mainly to meet up with my mates on the train and in the pub before the game.

That has been the highlight of the day for some time for me.

I completely get why people would give the game a miss.

Southampton At Nottingham Forest The Verdict
at 10:25 21 Jan 2025

We don't know the terms of the 6-month break clause.

If he wants to stay, and we'd rather he didn't, it could get difficult again. Not to mention expensive.

Juric might claim to have watched lots of videos of Saints' games before he came to us, but he'll know a heck of a lot less about the Championship.

We would want any new manager in place in advance of pre-season training.

I am a little intrigued as to how many of these Corporate ST holders we have.

Presumably around 200 - 300 or so.

Will be interesting to see how many there are for next season.

I'm sure they will all be dead keen for priority for away games at Wrexham or Wycombe......

We must sign more midfielders
at 06:48 21 Jan 2025

A toothless attack

A highly porous defence

Near the top of the League for pointless possession in the middle third of the pitch without hurting the opposition


The obvious solution?

Sign two more midfielders.

Brilliant
