A good interview with Sir Ricky, in the Echo. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/2...t-relives-st-marys-journey-10-defining-goals/
Here's something the "pundits" can quote now. From the BBC Southampton have gained seven points from losing positions away from home in the Premier League this season. Only West Ham (10) and Brighton (9) have recovered more such points.
SAINTS’ penultimate game of the 2021-22 season will be broadcast live on television, when title-chasing Liverpool visit St Mary’s on Sunday, May 15. The clash with Jurgen Klopp’s Reds will be viewable on Sky Sports, and has now been handed a later kick-off time of 4:30PM. It will be the last contest played at St Mary’s ahead of the summer, with the final day of the Premier League season ending at Leicester City for Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men. The club have added that this fixture is subject to change, if Liverpool reach the FA Cup final. They play a semi-final tie with Manchester City on Saturday, April 16.

I was wondering whether having a more engaged owner might result in this. I remember doing a Fred on this last year and it didn't look like the club were bothered.
He keeps getting worse and worse. Such a shame. He constantly claims that people/society shouldn't vilify others for a difference of opinion, which is true to an extent. But if you are going to deny war crimes and murder with literally no evidence other than seeing a tweet from a russian bot, then it is okay for people/society to think your opinion is ****ing stupid.
The sad thing for me is I thought for quite a while he was a bit misled- you know the night club with that idiot Osman, the Aussie girlfriend but it really does seem that his brain is in his boots. Thanks for the footie Matt - now go quietly.
An interesting piece on the Salisu long throw in, and whether or not it is working. The case being made is that it IS working because we are setting up to win the second ball, in or on the edge of the area, rather than expecting to win the first header. Case in point, from the Leeds game where Leeds won 6/6 first balls, from Salisu’s throws but Saints won 6/6 second balls. The high looping trajectory makes it difficult for defenders to get much distance on their clearing headers, which is what we are anticipating. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/20048451.analysis-saints-long-throw-in-tactic-not-working/
