Match Day Thread SAINTS v Tottenham - FA Cup Special, Sat 25 January, 3pm KO

Or it could be at Fratton.

 

To be honest I know a fair few people exactly like, who have come from nothing/broken homes/drug addiction and turned out alright. He made it as a pro football player, fair play , hes prize bellend though.

 

Apart from not going out of the Cup, the best thing about the draw is how pissed off must Mourinho be.

 

****

 

That's for when we win the Champion's League.

 

Surely the replay will be on the Wednesday as Spurs are playing Sunday. I really hope so as I can't do Tuesday.

 

The 29,382 at St Mary’s today would possibly disagree with you. It’s because Sky’s money carries a lot more weight than BT or the BBC, nothing to do with its popularity.

 

Ah bollocks, you got it!

 

I'm also hoping for Wednesday as I finish at 4 so might not even need to take any time off.

 

At least they’d be paying full price instead of the tenner mob (all signing yid army as they left) today.

 

We had to offer them tickets for a tenner as we can't charge away fans more and that's what it cost our STH's.

 

Many only paying a tenner including their lot

 

Know that; wasn’t talking about that. Read the post.

 

How did danso do at RB?

 

Like a pissed up giraffe on roller skates.

 

Excellent second half, far from excellent first half.

We should have won, but I'm fine with a draw. I can't be disappointed with drawing Spurs in a game where we created opportunities.

I certainly think we missed Long. Obafemi just didn't give us the same option for an out ball.

 

Some of your recent comments appear to be getting a bit ... well ... samey

 

That was one of his more intelligent comments.

 

That was actually a rather enjoyable match, although I’m chilled to the bone. We should have won it with the amount of chances we had but when you are up against a full time professional cheat and a twat of a referee it becomes a mountain to climb. Dele Alli is one dirty, niggly whinger of a player and the more I see of him the more I dislike him. Another one of those piss poor refereeing days and whoever was sitting on the VAR screen is a complete moron. We should have had a penalty and Alli turned Danso over which was as clear a foul as it could be. Kevin Danso was clearly struggling but I don’t think we can expect much more when the poor kid hardly ever gets to play, and when he does he is played as a stopgap out of position. You have to feel for the guy.

Ralph has really got the team buzzing and we have so much fight and they keep going even when we drop a goal. With the amount of chances we missed it didn’t look like we were going to get an equaliser but Boufal produced one of those moments that he does now and then to give us a draw. He is such a frustrating player at times but he has that ability to turn a match and I would be sorry to see him leave.

Good solid performances all round today but a huge blow to lose Armstrong. We gave Spurs far too much space in the first half but were much the better team in the second half. Ralph’s subs were spot on and the changes in the shape of the team were bang on the money. If Ralph and the team carries on like this we will have plenty to look forward to.
