Don't often post forcasts but as I had a dream (? nightmare) about this one last night it seems rude to my subconscius not to. 1-1 with Yoshi scoring from a corner. Some git scored for them. We were all over 'em but couldn't get a second.
[QUOTE=lamballana; Forster Clyne Fonte Maya Bertrand Vic Morgan* Tadic JWP Long Pelle Subs KD or Boruc, Jos, Stephens, Davis, Cork,Taider, Isgrove It Looking likely Taider on Subs bench for Saturday?
I'd like to see Taider get some game time. I didn't see him play a bad ball against Leverkeusen and I saw plenty of excellent moves and passes. Everything went where he wanted it to go and he displayed a quite astounding level of awareness of the other Saints players for someone who'd only been here a day or two. I'd love to see if it was beginner's luck or (preferably) that he's utterly awesome. Vin
Just had a quick look and our first seven games last season were (in thousands) 29.6 28.8 30.7 28.5 28.6 30.0 29.8 Only one in August was the first game and was Sunderland and the gate was just higher than the average for the next six (which was 29.4K) - they were all against mid-table sides, same as the first one, so probably comparable. Odd, as I'd expected the result to back you up. Vin
As I posted on the "other" West Brom thread, message #28 - Officials are :- 15:00 Southampton v West Brom Referee Roger East: Assistants R Ganfield & M Scholes: 4th Official C Foy.
Sky saying interview with Koeman is on after 5.00 this evening...presumably his pre-match press conference.
Sulking because you did the match thread and he had one lined up with all the bells and whistles or...he has a life (?...nah!).
Here's the press conference, live in about half an hour: [video=youtube_share;3kRibYbCLkc]http://youtu.be/3kRibYbCLkc[/video] And I won't be able to watch live so please could someone do a summary?
