We're all upset about losing Lambert, but I suspect most managers in this league would be very happy with that strike partnership.
Richardson travelled but didn't pass his fitness test on the pitch, Lambert didn't travel at all, saw the players get off the bus. Oh and it's cold as **** here. Can hardly feel my fingers.
"Southampton have taken the interesting step of placing a Saints mat outside of the away dressing room. Making themselves right at home." LOL
What was I saying yesterday about Holloway making too changes each week? Apparently they've made SIX changes to their Xi today.
Gilks, Harris, Evatt, Baptiste (c), Eardley, Martinez, Southern, Dobbie, M Phillips, Ince, Taylor-Fletcher Wilson, Basham, Fleck, Lua-Lua, Ormerod. You'll note one name in particular is missing from that squad.
The West Ham-Reading match has turned this into a bit of a freeroll. We win, the chase is over. We lose or draw, we're still six or seven points + goal differential up with six to play, which is a rather enviable position. Good to be able to relax and enjoy for once.
Exactly. It's why I always wanted West Ham to lose (or at the very least draw). Takes the pressure completely off us, by giving us the buffer of allowing us a third slip up.
Lambert did travel with the squad, he flew back today though. I know this as my friend saw him at eastleigh airport this afternoon and i ignored my friend as he can be a wind up merchant!!! Also, I doubt very much that he is out for season as i saw video footage of him training through the saints web site on thursday and he was moving around fine. More than likely precautionary.. Save him for poopey next week.
Had a very tidy bulge added to my bet 365 account this afternoon. A cheeky accumulator and a 3-3 at the Etihad. What has this got to do with the game? Well I've just chucked a bit of it on a Sharp hat-trick..... COYR!
