Match Day Thread Southampton vs Tottenham Saturday 9th March 15:00

Twoddle is a goat?

 

FLT. Are you doing the Totenham v Southampton U18 match day thread for the 24th of this month. It apppears this might well be the first competitive match at the New White Hart Lane. And they want at least 30,000 to attend. Probably be able to get in for free if that is the case.

 

Who are you supporting in this one Ides?....

And if there was a pre-season tournament between us, Spuds, Skates and Bilbao who would you back then?...

Forget the game....I could just watch the beer glasses being filled all day. How can you fill glasses from the bottom?

 

Going to miss this game as I don’t land until after FT

 

If we win I’ll be up in the clouds for a week

 

Let’s hope you are indeed up in the clouds......we are definitely due a win against this lot.

 

Matchday, my lad has woken with a horrendous cough so we might not be going

 

That as they say is Sod’s law. Hope the lad feels better when we’ve won.......

 

Hope little man gets better soon

 

Thanks mate, not sure if it will get better as the day goes on. Coughs are often much worse in the morning so I'll grab him some medicine in a minute and see how he is about lunchtime. Weather dependant as well probably.

 

I would just enjoy the whole scenario as there are players to admire on all sides. Wish SFC could get Lallana back as he was/is a very good player. I love those players who provide subtle skills and don´t showboat and Lallana had it in abundance. As did Ricky Lambert I hasten to add.

 

The police

 

Don’t be silly, just take a hip flask with a good single malt Irish whiskey and he’ll be fine

 

Lallana didn't showboat?

You've reached a new level here mate

 

Tbf it was just a bunch of cruyff turns, not exactly showing off

 

Probably not the ‘correct’ view but the results now count far more than style of play. I don’t really care how the point(s) are earned, as long as they are. Not sure any of us can take the ‘we deserved something/more from that game’ post match feeling now! If we end up in the Championship thinking, we played really well, pity about the results etc., that won’t sit easily with me or many others I suspect. However I think we do have a better chance than Cardiff of staying up and the natural pessimism of being s Saints supporter will not be necessary!!

 

Whilst it wouldn't sit well with me if we are relegated despite playing well, I'd prefer that to going down and being crap. We are better to watch and seem to be going in the right direction from a playing point of view...but sometimes things just don't go your way and that can be very important when things are this close. Let's hope we get some reward for hard work and accumulate those precious points.

 

Whilst bagging all three points would be a huge boost to our chances of staying in the division, I think we are all underestimating just how nice it would be to laugh at Pochettino

 

Whisper it quietly, but I've got a good feeling about today ...
