Match Day Thread Southampton v Man City 7pm, 5th July, BBC One

Nope, don't think we'll miss any of those to be honest.

Be interested to see who makes the bench more than anything

 

Given that the teams above us should win more than they lose, and the teams below us will lose more than they win, I’ll bet my next weeks wages on neither happening

 

Now confirmed as Thursday and Sunday for the Brighton and Bmouth matches. Both on BT.

 

Cancelled my BT sport a week ago.....hey, ho.

 

There is a small part of me that hopes for an 8,9 or 10 nil.

We’d be forever in every sports quiz as “Who lost 9-0 and 10-0 at home I the same season and didn’t get relegated?”



plus the irrelevant melt down would be the best ever and bring all those posters back!

 

I cancelled mine a Couple of years back in a hissy fit. I’ve been with BT forever. Only telephone and internet provider I have had. They wrote to me telling me as I was “out of internet contract” coming up, my BT Sport would jump from £6,99 to £12.99 a month (or similar). I did see the email, but it was in a period of time where I was so busy travelling with work for several weeks and months that I didn’t get round to signing a new deal.... despite the fact I was still using BT for everything they put the price up as indicated. A few weeks later I got a telephone call from them about my contract for internet and sport. I was delighted. They talked me through a good deal on internet and told me I could have sport for £6.99 - I took great delight in telling them to cancel that and where they could shove their sport. I kept the internet with them, it is good. They didn’t understand. I said they wouldn’t because it was called a principle..... how they had the nerve to charge me more for something that cost them no different when they could clearly see that I had been with them for an unbroken period of forever (approx 30 years).

Yes, I cut off my nose a bit but I felt really good.






The finish to this is that about 6 months later my wife wanted to upgrade her mobile with O2. I said let’s look at BT deals as I already spend a fortune with them, so must be a good one on offer. There was. They gave us a good deal on the phone model she wanted with a contract tied to our landline and internet bill.....

.... and it came with free BT Sport for two devices

 

Did Tella injure himself signing his new contract?

 

What did Chris Sutton say about room for improvement after Norwich game?

The site won’t let me read the article which is frustrating when they hooked me with the headline

 

Ahah got it
He says we’re leaky at the back
Not really a revelation
He says he can’t work out why our home and away form differ so much
He’s not alone there

I told them they shouldn’t be charging me when there was no sport on and they gave me a credit for 3 months

Maybe you should go back and tell them that’s why you left. There’s always a deal available

 

We should have a guard of honour for City on Sunday and applaud them onto the pitch..

 

I don't know, with all this subservient behaviour, if we'll have any time to play football.
Shall we just get on with that instead.

 

I saw some odds, from Paddy Power, listing Ings as 8/1 to be the first scorer, making him the 9th favourite behind 8 Man City players.
I don’t gamble, but given his current form and the number of goals he has scored, I thought they were rather generous.
Long was 12th favourite at 13/1, which I don’t think are generous enough.

 

Just had a look at 365 and I'm tempted by that 8/1 on Ings.


No idea who the **** Cole Palmer is though?

 

That one had me beat as well.

 

I'm 70 years old also leaky at the back.

 

Read that whilst eating breakfast and wish I hadn't

 

Sorry Ossy, hour ahead here in The Hague just getting settled down for footy focus. Oh perhaps you can tell me, are farts lumpy?

 

The lovechild of Carlton Palmer and Andy Cole?

 

How's your home and away form?
