    I think you should do a podcast together for discontented Saints fans. Potentially comedy gold.

    Just sent this to Jeff at WF, who is a Rangers fan. 2 weeks ago he was saying, “Give him time”. Now he is saying,” We have a problem with useless manager in the training area”. I did try to warn him when RM got the job, but he said he must be good because he got Saints promoted. Missed off the And relegated in record time and points total.

    Oooh, he’s starting to bite. We saw that, some in Championship & rather more in EPL.

    I know they won, but maybe that horse has bolted.

    Fair play to him. Thinking we’re creating bad karma for Still with this obsession over Russ.

    Interesting article on the bbc site about the trend in direct football. Interview with Sam Allardyce. The highlights for me:

    “You don’t want your centre halves to have more possession than anyone else on the pitch, they’re defenders!”

    “Giving the ball away in your own half leads to giving a goal away more often than the opposition building up from defence and scoring.”

    It’s a shame they didn’t allow away supporters to this match.
