Nope. Also paid for parking and that not come yet. Though that isn't really an issue as my new car STILL isn't here.....

 

11 years, wow!

Walking in Liebherr wonderland

 

I e-mailed the Ticket Office, and I've received a reply that:

"Fulfilment for our season tickets is being made by a third-party supplier and cards will be sent over the next week. With 2 weeks before the match against Manchester United, you should have this in plenty of time ahead of the match. We shall update supporters once we have confirmation of the dispatch"

So, everything is in hand, nothing to worry about. Probably.

Martin Semmens has just said, amongst the more obvious reasons, why we will be 100% keeping JWP is that almost all our new signings state that one of the reasons for signing is to play with Ward-Prowse and that in fact Tino went as far as asking whether he will be sold or not as he really wanted to play with him.

Just goes to show that certain players, such as JWP, have value to their club above and beyond the performances they put on week in week out.

 

Ralph

 

Semmens is really impressive.

 

I really do believe the future of this club is in safe hands.

 

Feels like he hasn't been here a wet week! That's an unbelievable stat though

 

"When Jannik is leaving..." - interesting slip from Ralph there.

 

Semmens hinting that Ryan had come to the end of the line 'physically' for the type of team and system Ralph wants.

 

All these muppets on Twitter criticising Ralph for using Moussa as a left back - Ralph's seen him day in day out at training. If Ralph thinks he can play left back to a decent standard then I believe him. I personally don't see why he can't fill in there. He works bloody hard when he's on the pitch and he's quick so he'll get up and down the pitch. The only question mark for me is his tackling but that can be worked on in training. It could be a masterstroke for all we know!

 

Livramento can play LB (as Ralph eluded too before he mentioned Djenepo) and Valery has shown in pre season to be an adequate back up RB.

 

I'd rather Livramento stay on the right based on what I saw on Saturday.

 

I heard that too but I think that was a language issue. I think he was trying to discuss the scenario of what we would do if Jannik left.

 

Ralph aiming for a top ten finish. Realises that's ambitious, but that's what he and the players are after.

 

Good forum. Frustrating how many people felt the need to give their own back story before asking questions at times but ah well. Also frustrating that the away fans location came up AGAIN, same question and same answer every season.

 

With the two new signings today I'm feeling fairly positive about the season, yeah they'll almost certainly take time to settle in but this somehow feels different to other transfer windows over the last few years. Given we haven't a pot to piss in, I'm impressed with the business we've done
