    Yeah, i dont have much hope for tonight at all.

    Between playing west ham, michail Antonio and losing Ralph, I feel the stars are aligning against us.

    1-0 Saints. I’d have engine 2-0 but Ralph can’t come off the bench to get the second.

    Oh balls. No Ralph at the game against our reserves on Monday, I presume?

    I would have thought he’ll be delegating encouragement etc and communicating via radio.

    bleeding hell Chilcs, you’re a mod. I thought speaking gobbledygook was a requirement.

    More concerned that he may get it and infect players...we’re short as we are.

    Ralph is a leader. True leadership is very difficult to define, and it’s incredibly rare in any walk of life. A good leader can get 20% more out of a team than they might otherwise be capable of.

    I would be a lot happier if the team had their leader on the touch line, personally. But since we don’t, let’s hope they all know exactly what’s expected of them, and give that extra 20%, for Ralph. And for the fans, who also won’t be there.

    Over 53,000 new infections, I can see the league being paused.

    They won't unless multiple teams go down with Covid at the same time.

    18 positive in the latest round of testing, only going to go up IMO.

    Given the Euros are going to played in the summer they have to finish the season in May. Therefore pausing the season will only happen if they have absolutely no alternative.

    I agree but it would be my XI in whatever formation. Diallo has come on as a sub briefly on the left.

    Yea good point, don’t want to see a pause, but with everyone meeting up for Xmas and new year ....inevitably infections will go through the roof next month.
