Match Day Thread Southampton v Liverpool SAT 19th Nov. 3:00 pm

At least one (1) person thought I should do this thread after SaintKitch mistakenly ruined the game against Hull! (only kidding SK!)

I stand by my record as having beaten Inter Milan!

I’m bored with the International break – we’re playing Saturday

And if you want another impossible dream – it’s beating Top of the table Liverpool – with apparently the best attacking play seen this season.

So we’ll need our best team playing with more heart than ever. We will not be breached!

Forget that, the team is decimated by injuries – THIS IS THE NEGATIVE THREAD – WE’RE GONNA GET HAMMERED!

(See the psychology? How many teams have lost thinking it’s an easy game? Uh hum Hull)

Now who’s left to be humiliated by Liverpool? (but not really because they are bemused by the reverse psychology and probably have no idea what that is)

And let’s throw some Impossibilities in

Forster (injured) McCarthy (injured) VVD (no-one gets passed him)

Cedric (injured) Martina / Fonte / Yoshida / Targett (injured) Bertrand (injured) McQueen

Pierre (injured) Clasie / Romeu / JWP

Long (injured) / J-Rod / Charlie! / Tadic (sub as Zorro) / Redmond


NO PROBLEM!!! (and everyone will be back to beat the blue half in the next Premiership game!)

 

Saturday 19 November 3-00 pm ko
Southampton v Liverpool
Referee: Mark Clattenburg
Assistants: S Bennett, R West
Fourth official: T Robinson

Hope that is not the Time Team Knight doing the Fourth Official job!

 

I have a cunning plan!

 

Is that the plan where we invite all of the ex-Saints into the home dressing room as a friendly gesture then lock them in a cupboard until 5.00? Think Coutinho should be invited as we once expressed an interest in him. Oh and Klopp as he seems a gregarious sort who'd enjoy a bit of a pre-match chat.

Does this sound desperate? Imagine my journey home with 4 Reds fans. Bloody right it's desperate.

 

Goals conceded last 4 games:
Liverpool 5
Saints 5

 

Goals scored in last 5 games:
Liverpool 14
Saints 8.

 

So we are due some.

 

well thank you Tom for manipulating the statistics in our favour!

 

I shall be at the Old Farmhouse before this game....this is the only warning you will get.

 

where's the nearest pub to the Old Farmhouse?

 

One day I will make it to the pub and St. Marys - sad to say I've been away too long!

Worth a watch to get you in the mood for the weekend's match.

 

Whiteley - don't show games where we beat them! the plan is to make them over-confident! ssssshh

 

We're all DOOMED!

 

Just been talking a Liverpool supporting colleague. He is absolutely full of himself right now and reckons the current Liverpool side are the most exciting since the eighties. Which was all a bit irritating to listen to frankly, but once he got that out of his system he said he expected this Saturday to be a real test for them. People are beginning to respect us - which may not actually be a good thing imo.

 

DOOMED DOOMED I SAY!

 

I'm aiming to be there, too, Fran. Around 1 - 1.30 I reckon

 

So McCarthy and Forster injured? Oh. Erm welcome back krumbley kelv!

 

I'll be attending the aforementioned establishment and will bring a Welsh damsel with me.

Message to said damsel - I'll contact you later this week when I'm back in uk

Here's hoping a don't return said Welsh damsel in too much distress....
