Match Day Thread Saints vs Leicester City - Tuesday, November 25 - 20:00 KO

Leicester are toilet. If our sudden miraculous turnaround in form is real and not an illusion, we'll win tonight. If we don't win, everything will go back to being either total **** (lose), or a bit **** (draw). Which will at least be comfortably familiar; so it's win-win really. Sort of

 

Agreed to the above, when we turn up like Saturday (they can't have forgotten, it was three days ago) we will steamroll a very average Leicester.

 

It wasn’t a dream, was it?

 

There forum, foxes talk is surprisingly balanced and most fear a loss (they do saints based puns as well)

 

Proofreading by the author before posting is a good hobbit. The old adage 'act in haste, repeat at leisure' comes to bind.

 

To sleep, perchance to dream.
Toby or not Toby, that is the question.
We suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
We are Southampton fans.

 

We are such stuff as dreams are made on
And our little lives are rounded with a sleep

 

If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber’d here
While these visions did appear.
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream,
Gentles, do not reprehend:
if you pardon, we will mend:

 

There was once a man named Tonda,
Who gave Sports Republic much to ponder,
He kept winning games,
Make him a permy and they'll be shot down in flames,
But if they don't we will always wonder.

 

Insurance bet placed at 3-1

 

"If you don't have a dream"
"How you gonna have a dream come true?"

 

Is hard to contain the excitement for this one after the weekends shock performance, Leicester have some quality attacking players and much like us it just hasn’t fully clicked for them yet (arguably it did for us on Sat, but I guess this game is the test of whether it was simply a fluke!)

I’ll go for 2-2. Leicester always seem to beat us, so hopefully this can be the start of us beating the hoodoo!!

Same team as Sat - COYS!!!

 

McCarthy
THB Wood Stephens
Fellows Bragg Jander manning
Azaz Scienza
Armstrong

Same team but they might have some shots on target so McCarthy in

 

Feel strange saying it, but think we’ll win.

 

I'm saying nothing.

 

You could say we’ll lose - that might work

 

I remember what Fatuwu did to Manning last time we played them at St.Marys and that was with a terrible attempt at doubling up on him. At least we won't be tasking Fraser with it this time I guess.

 

Yeah, Manning as a defender worries me. Think I’d rather put welly on him.

 

It will be typical for Saints to blow our bubble of positivity following Saturday

 

This is a bit weird after Saturday but I really can't be arsed tonight.

Probably because I know it won't be as good as the weekend. Plus it's gonna be ****ing freezing and I'm knackered.
