    You're being generous. I was thinking about suggesting we leave the name out when its a bore 4 team e.g The Team in Blue v Southampton.

    It would be nice if the English media would stop obsessing over Mourinho for five ****ing minutes.

    Let me guess... that is in fact a trick question... Coventry City have never won the FA Cup..!

    A trick question that went out of date in the late 1980s, IIRC. :)

    A have the whole Live at Drury Lane LP in my collection somewhere. I think it too is available on Youtube. All the classic sketches are there and not toned down for TV.

    Personally I would go for the trapeze artiste he could swing the game their way and I am not clowning around. He could run rings around us.

    Virgil tamed the lion of Swansea last week, so I'm sure he'll quell any hazards he sees this week.

    I think the big question for this game is will Ivanovic be dropped? If not, Saints have the players to target him and I can see us getting an unlikely win from this game.

    And while I am thinking optimistically, could a Saints victory be the end of the Special One?

    I used to find Jose mildly amusing, but since his return to the Premier League I have found him deeply irritating, and if Saints were to have a hand in the downfall of the contemptible **** I would be absolutely delighted.

    I lost patience with Jose last season. He managed to out-Wenger Wenger. Just moaned non-stop after one of our games last year about the "campaign" against him and Chelsea. The sexist rant this year just confirmed to me how unspecial he really is. I would just love a win without any excuses over ref decisions, or a ball boy being in the FBI etc. Tough call though, Chelsea are a ruddy good team and will, even when playing poorly, be a threat. So 0-1 to Saints for me. Just don't score too early lads and give 'em 84mins to find a goal.

    These two stats caught my eye;
    • They (Southampton) are without a win in 10 away league games (D4, L6), the joint-longest current top-flight run along with Newcastle.
    • Jay Rodriguez has scored in two of his last three Premier League appearances against Chelsea.

    I'll get told off by Fats and TSS for this, but I'd take a point if offered it right now. All day long.

    I find him frustrating. How can someone so arrogant be so incredibly boring?

    No no, you can have your point. I'm not a gambler, so I'll just take a 1-0 Saints win. :)
