Yes indeed he did and left it to me to win the day at Wembley. What the **** happened after that? We failed to appease the football gods, sacrifices were not made and it's all turned to ****.
You might have to come to Stanton Drew, I have a better relationship with those stones. Bring Pompey shirts/memorabilia/fans to sacrifice.
So what’s the plan for next season? Have Loading start the match day threads from game 1, or keep him in reserve in case we get off to a slow start and lose a game or two? Big decision needed.
I think we'll be ok with Loading next year as he is the Adam Armstrong of posters - A cut above in the Championship, but a bit lost and lacking the confidence to do more than one game in the Premier League. I think though we should maybe try a few new posters in pre season, and then only bring out the big guns when needed.
The good news is it doesn’t matter any more whether we get there or not Man City will take the record with their final points total of -1000 at the end of the season
The week before we play Leicester (GW35), they play Wolves. I think it's unlikely that Leicester will be relegated before they play Wolves, because that would require Wolves to be at least 16 points ahead of them. And I'm not convinced that Wolves are good enough for that. However, that match between Wolves and Leicester could very easily be when Leicester's relegation is confirmed. Because if Wolves were to be at least 10 points ahead of Leicester - which is very possible - then a victory for Wolves would send Leicester down. Even a draw might do it The reason why I bring this up is because our trip to the King Power the following week is looking increasingly likely to be our best chance of beating Derby's record. But if Leicester go into that game with survival to fight for, I wouldn't even back to us to win that one.
I think we’ll smash it. One win and a spawny draw. 4 more points and finish the season on a lofty 13 points.
I will be honestly very upset if people start saying how happy they are if we beat the record. I don’t care if we finish on 10 or 13 points they are still by far and away the worst squad in Southampton’s history and deserve just as much mocking and outrage either way. Beating the record isn’t anything to be happy about, the fact we’ve been in the conversation the whole season just shows how truly dire it has been.
I care. And therefore you're probably not going to like me very much should we do it. Open top bus parade and pitch invasion I reckon.
We all know we are the worst PL team in history, but we don’t need to get the record with statistics to prove it. Just beat the record by 0.1 points Please!
The roar from the crowd if we are able to do it will be absolutely superb, I reckon. Might as well stick Freed From Desire over the tannoy again
