    Ipswich game heading for sell out

    I was thinking along the same lines, but it occurred to me that Ipswich may consider that maintaining a top-two Championship position is more important than a cup run, so Ipswich may not field their strongest side,either. This may be a match where a matchday programme is essential, to try to...

    It's two from four for the Champion's League

    Was this (Man U) a slip of the keyboard/phone, or a default setting for 'good team'?:emoticon-0100-smile

    Saints v Stoke match thread [including League Cup tie]

    Has anyone checked the weather forecast? If there's a strong wind from the Stoke half, Begovic may cause problems. But then, Forster is taller than Boruc...

    Article: Saints v QPR match thread | Southampton FC, Football

    At the moment, the only team level on points with us is Villa, and we've got a +6 better goal difference than them, so winning 1-0 on Saturday will be enough to keep us in second. Unless Villa win, of course, which brings us back to my initial idea, as Villa are playing Chelsea!

    Capital One Cup Thread (Round 3)

    I saw a Stoke Web Site on NewsNow which stated that the Stoke vs Saints cup game would be on Wednesday 29th, with a 7:45 kick off. Nothing (yet) on Official site, so it may not be set in stone

    Article: Saints v QPR match thread | Southampton FC, Football

    I know that this is tempting fate and very unlikely but IF we win by three clear goals against QPR AND Villa beat Chelsea (OK, I'm in dream land, but...) we would be top of the Premier League by 5:00 pm on Saturday. As I'm clearly into the realms of fantasy, an alternative would be that Chelsea...

    Premier League Thread

    It may have been mentioned elsewhere, but how long will it be before Sky (or BT) decide that they want to televise Saints' games live, rather than these mid-table also-ran teams? Will Saints fans soon have to put up with early or late Saturday kick offs, or Sunday matches? I'm sure we'll cope!

    Article: Saints v Newcastle match thread | Southampton FC, football

    Are we up and about, to watch the highlights again on the Sunday morning repeat of MoTD, or still buzzing from yesterday? I have to say that not only was it a brilliant match and result, but I've never got home back up the M3/A30 so quickly. Marcus is being Obi Wan Kenobi to Ronald 'Luke...

    Article: Southampton v Manchester United match thread | Southampton FC, Football

    I've checked other sites, and it would appear that a win for Man U, combined with Spurs losing, would propel them into sixth place, putting them in the Europa League next season. This possible scenario may be enough for their overpaid, overhyped players to deliberately try not to win, as they...
