    Fonte got picked off by another Villan who was Pelle's man.

    I think we can all agree that it was just sodding awful defending.

    Yes, almost as bad as the finishing.

    Thankyou for that kind offer. If I wanted to watch Derby I would without your permission.

    I have been a Saints supporter for nearly 50 years. I think I have a right to air my irritation without your crass comment

    I cannot remember a season where at some point we wouldn't go through what I call a dry period re goals from chances. Mistakes happen all the time during a game and even the best teams make them. Trouble is in the premier a mistake close to goal more than average, results in a goal. You only need one mistake and you are a goal down as happened to us on Saturday.
    I get the feeling that part of our scoring problems is we do not seem to have a forward or mid fielder who does the unexpected, apart possibly Mane. If you watch someone like Vardy he doesn't always do the natural thing, some times you could argue even the wrong things, (in coaches eyes) but it works for him, one reason IMO why he is so successful.

    Football still has a hell of a lot to learn from Rugby.

    From the top of that sport to the very grass roots that football goes on about so much. Rugby seems to do things better.
