Match Day Thread Southampton vs Burnley 16/10/16 KO 4pm

Thanks Whiteley, bit crap that the website isn't working.

 

So Martina and Targett it is then! McQueen/Yoshi as cover.

 

Play 3-5-2. Just for fun.

 

Boufal will be eased in according to Blackmore. Hopefully the bench then.

 

I appreciate the concerns about Yoshi (in that position). Am I imagining it or have JWP and Steve Davis both covered in that position?

 

To go or not to go....that is the question.....would it be too late to go if I purchase tickets in the morning?

 

I hope not, that's my plan too.

If you are not already registered you will need to sign up to watch.

 

So, do Burnley have any injury worries concerns, anything? Not heard a peep from them for two weeks, sounds like a marvelous rest.

 

Well, after watching the press conference, I must say I am really happy to have CP as manager.
When the Argentine bloke came in I was gutted (The "Dons" plans for Nigel), but I was then
gutted when he................left.
Step forward uncle Les, who presents from a top hat......... (The lying Dutchman)....
Not bad, not bad at all, but.
But now we have Claude Puel and the more I watch this guy, the more impressed I've been.
I have feeling He's going to be good for us.
Just my ramblings!

I know it probably doesn't need saying, and I'm sure someone has beat me to it already, but please - raise the roof for Franny on Sunday.

What a bloke. His determination was absolutely striking and he's an incredible person.

I came home from work thinking about just what he's doing on the drive home. It's amazing and I ended up parting with more money as a result.

 

Before I dozed off, did Puel mention some players were ill and had an infection.

 

Guys; well said Conner. I just hope Franny receives the support & adulation he & the charity deserve.

 

Franny already has the adulation at Saints. The roof will be raised for sure.

It's halftime that he's presented. Wouldn't it be nice if our "drinking fans" stayed in their seats to salute this giant of a man amongst men..... if they did and donated the £4 for the beer (or whatever it is) that'd be another 10k in his buckets.

 

MATCHDAY BUZZING!!!!!




(I fooled some of you )

 

Part one done, just text a fiver to go with the £10 I did last week. Staying in my seat at half time as somethings are more important than a half time wine (no doubt I'll still have a whine though )

 

But why are we actually playing on a sunday? Surely they could've left us on saturday, so we can have an extra day to prepare for our europa league clash.

 

Sky have full control. Sky want you on TV, Sky get you on TV. They dont care about what's going on around that day.
