Match Day Thread Fulham v Saints. This Saturday. FA Cup 6/1/2018 3pm

Not sure if that's tongue in cheek or not but I'm actually very positive in the ground

I'll be trying mate... Not sure an afternoon of protest was what my sister had in mind for her first ever away game though

We'll just have to score a couple of early goals

 

Me too

The fact I'm going probably helps and also because it's a cup match.

 

Got a friendly today to see how unfit I am after the Xmas break. The good news is that it is an 11 kick off so will be back in time to see Saints. The better news is that I am potentially going to see a mate at 3 to go to the gym so will miss the game.

Think we win this one though 2-0, just got a feeling.

 

No tongues! I’ve told you that before.

I know you like a sing song, so expect you to keep Them at it.

 

On a sober one today too as driving. I'll get my sister pissed up and we'll keep the away end going

Yeah, chose a team to support about 10 years ago, and because they were called the saints.... well, there was no other option.

 

Pretty much every season a relegation candidate goes on a good cup run. Maybe this will be our year.

 

Are you sure that wasn't last year?


I mean we were so ****e last year weren't we...

 

Please no. Early goals are our undoing.

 

Not a league match so doesn't carry that anxiety. Good to have a cup match....a win would lift the spirits. COYR

 

2-1 win.

 

FA Cup 3rd round, one of the highlights of the sporting calender. An away trip to one of the nicest old grounds in the country. Who wouldn't be up for that?

Cmon Saints! Let's be in the draw on Monday.

 

Your optimism is killing me.

 

It's not optimism. It's a refusal to treat every setback as a catastrophe.


I fear for the mental health of some of our fans if we get to the end of January without a win. Have The Samaritans still got their number plastered all over the Itchen Bridge?

 

Enjoy the game.

I’ll be at home with a Guinness in hand.

 

Enjoy the Guinness

 

Should let me know if you ever come up to watch them

 

This times a million.

Drive to Richmond took an hour, bit chilly but feels like a proper cup tie already.

Up the ****ing Saints

 

Come on boys. Cup may be a distraction from the league but that doesn’t stop me wanting to get far in the competition! Let’s give this a good go!

 

I feel I should be up for this. FA Cup 3rd round weekend is one of the highlights of the football calendar. But I can't muster any excitement whatsoever. Thanks Pellegrino.
