    Let's hope Man Utd "have committed to decarbonising fuel through the use of sustainable aviation fuel" when they fly to Leicester next time.

    Was very 'meh' about it at the time, but that kit has really aged well. I love it now. Got to be the whole kit though, as the socks are important.

    The gold livery ended up fitting with the swagger that team had. With Cortese's apparent love of red and yellow and his Swiss/Italianess, I always thought this could inspire his ultimate vision

    Hey all. I am flying over to the UK this March. The only game I can make will be the Watford home game, on March 12th.
    When are tickets going to be available for this game? Will I be able to buy 2 online?
    Is there a chance they could reschedule the game?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Cowtownred, with covid there is always the chance it could be postponed but I'd think it would be pretty unlikely at this stage given they've made the rules for postponements more stringent. I'm sure I've heard before (might be via Total Saints Podcast), that if you are a Saints fan from far afield and travelling here for a game, that if you contact the club about it they will make sure you get tickets. Not 100% sure on that, and I'm sure others on here will have better info but no harm contacting the club explaining your situation and asking about the best way to ensure you get tickets.

    Presumably JWPs long range free kick belter didn't win goal of the month in the PL?

    Nope, Kovacic's stunning volley did which was fair enough - that was a worthy winner IMO.

    Hi Cowtownred, as RSS has said above, contacting the club directly is your best bet. Below are a couple of contacts that should be able to help you.
    The supporter services are just a general info department for the fans and will probably direct you to the ticket office but may be able to give you any other advice or info you may need.

    Yes it was a superb goal no doubt and obviously it's all about opinions, but I have never seen a free kick like JWP's in the PL ever. The distance, the swerve and the fact that even though it was 35yds? the keeper was nowhere near it made it unique imo. Quite often these things are decided by which team's scorer has the most fans. In the cup poll the nearest to Stuey is Elliott from Liverpool which I think is no better than any of the others. It's not really that important but I like to see things decided on merit rather than player allegiance. I, on the other hand, am totally impartial.

    Anyway, as Saints fans this season we have been treated to two of the best goals you will see.

    They both showed excellent technique and it was a great strike by JWP. But he had a lot of time to line it up. That Kovacic volley was special IMO. He had to adjust really quickly and both feet were off the ground when he struck the ball. Goal of the season for me so far.

    We all know we need a new first choice, but I would be happy to let Forster and McCarthy both leave, and have Willy as a back up for a year or 2.

    He has bags of experience, still looks good and his wages will be way less the either McCarthy or Forster. Why not?

    Likely to require someone to want to come in and buy McCarthy as I think he has signed a new contract (unannounced for some reason)

    No, thanks for the link. There's a really good shot of the strike - a kind of Stu's eye view - of how he would of see his strike curve and bend in. The initial view doesn't do the goal justice. :1980_boogie_down:
