    I thought the keeper could move so long as he doesn`t come off his line ? Smallbone has a bad knee injury and won`t be back until next season.

    I know Stu gets around the pitch, but there's only one of him. Sadly.

    Palace fans think JWP is demon spawn :emoticon-0136-giggl Every time we play them they seem to have more fans interested in making sure he gets injured then fans that want them to win the game. They don't care if they lose a player to a red, just so long as someone leaves one on 'Prouse'. So many comments wishing their players to literally punch him, and injure him. Whereas if they took a step back and took off their blue and red tinted specs they might realise that Zaha is a highly strung petulant twat most games. Whereas JWP is only a ****house 5% of the time :angel:

    Only part that worried me really last night, was that was a game that without Danny we probably go on and lose. Or we possibly do. We are so, so reliant on his quality, as has been shown over the course of this season.

    If we hadn't had Danny last night, and lost, the Ralph Out brigade would have been unbearable, and yet what is he meant to do?

    I'm no expert on the rules, but I think the GK is allowed to move side to side, just not allowed to come off their line. Having looked like he might be the next academy product to make it in the first team a few years ago, Slattery seemingly has/had attitude issues. I seem to remember Ralph making comments about it. He is currently on loan at Gillingham. No idea how he is doing there though!? Smallbone I'm quite sure would have featured for us a lot more this season given all our injuries if he hadn't himself picked up a bad injury back in January. He is out for the season.

    Blasphemy I know, but I actually think JWP is being a bit of a dick towards Zaha. Needs to show a bit more class and respect to a fellow professional.

    Fras/Macca
    KWP, Bedders/Vester/Mo, Bertie
    Oriol, JWP
    Stuey, Redders/Teĺla
    Danny, Che

    This XI fully fit and confident are a match for anyone on the right day..if we can have a bit more luck with injuries and the officials and add a few to the squad then there is hope for next season with a full pre-season, injury recovery facilities and a normal fixture list.
    I still think that Danny will sign, Bertie is less clear though.

    I didn’t see him have much to do with Zaha last night. The player he wound up last night was Kouyaté, unless my memory is mistaken.

    I think for 2/3 of the games Walcott has played he has proven that he belongs in and around that team as well, more so than Redmond for me, who has a fantastic game about every 1/10 matches. But is a deadweight the rest of the time, which in fairness makes him a pretty stereotypical Saints PL winger.

    I won’t be too fussed about Bertrand leaving as long as we have a reasonable replacement lined up, he’s heading towards the end of his career and has been fairly poor for us for a few seasons imo. KWPs contrasting performances on the right have shone a light on Bertrand's deficiencies on the left for me.

    There is no denying that at his peak he was invaluable for us, but I think he is long past that now.

    Sidenote: Tella looks VERY promising.

    I do hope those that had us losing and relegated before the ball was kicked are munching on a monster slice of humble pie and are reassessing their pessimistic forecasts. Life is just a bowl of All Bran. Happy daze all.

    Watching that 3rd goal again makes me really happy. It was a quality team goal and that's how we were playing in the first half of the season. More of that please Saints!
