Match Day Thread Arsenal v Southampton Sunday 8th April 14:15

???

 

When we were relegated in '05, a "sympathetic" blue nose git asked me how I felt about playing Crewe. I told him, I don't mind playing them. Losing is a different matter.

Losing in successive seasons to Tranmere was not a fun experience. The bleak outlook called the fixture list when you re relegated is depressing. Norwich, Leeds et al. That's fine. Shrewsbury? Come on

 

That was 2 min from the end they were 2-1 up but then our neighbours helped us out

 

I dunno. Villa Park, Bramall Lane, Portman Road, Loftus Road, The City Ground, all worth a visit.

And I have a particular affection for the ****hole that is Griffin Park.

 

I'll be watching in the Caledonian. Seeing a Saints shirt is probably all I'll have to look forward to. Make my day Lambo!

 

Matchday! Gunning for our opponents!

 

I have invited my sister for Sunday lunch. Her husband is a Gooner.

I mean when things are bad, why not. I’ll try anything.

 

Isn't that called "cannibalism"

 

They’re not the same as us...

 

It's a well-known fact () that only Saints fans feel pain. Or is it just that we feel it on a more regular basis?

 

Match day. Oh dear, not again.

 

My Eldest Son is a Saints Fan..........His eldest is a bloody Arsenal Fan............Gee we are going to be in for some stick if we are beaten!!!

 

Not too optimistic. My prediction is that we will perform better than last week but not enough of an improvement to warrant getting any hopes up. 2-0 win to Arsenal.

 

1-1.

 

Bad parenting on your son’s behalf. The only excuse is, if he lives within a mile of The Emirates. Apart from that, he needs reporting.

 

Nah the little sod lives less than a couple of miles from where I live here in Hedge End.......

 

*rolls eyes

 

Annoyingly/thankfully am in France so I don’t think I’m going to get to see it. But COYR. We can actually do this...

 

I have reached that strange state where I don't know what I'm feeling.
I do suspect I've reached the stage where, if we go 2 goals down after 11mins, I'll retire to the garage for some serious tinkering.

 

I think many of us are in the same boat. My old man comes over each week to watch the match together but since the Newcastle game if we go down 2-0 before half-time the TV goes off and we retreat to play Pool
