Match Day Thread Continuing adventures of Granny: a Saturday Afternoon bus ride at 3 on Souness TV

Ht

 

Had hoped for a second before half time. Glad for Che to get a good second goal of the week.

 

Good half. Granny is riding that bus all the way into town!

(I avoided the Minamino bashing last time out, but he is so lightweight I think he might blow away second half)

 

Maybe Ralph is using today's game to confirm his opinions of several players, including Minamino and Redmond.

 

Well, that's bus passes for you...

 

We are at halftime and winning 1-0 yet only page 5 of the match thread. I knew a lot of people had me blocked!

 

If mini metro is going back, which he should, not sure why we are bothering playing him. Would much rather Tells or weird al get more game time.

 

Cos every minute he does not play it costs us money...

 

I've worked out what frustrates me about Redmond. When he needs to pass the ball he takes forever to work out who to pass to. He is great a running with the ball and taking defenders on but when he runs out of space he takes an age to pass the ball to a team mate.

Goals from Che and Ings in the 2nd half.

 

I am feeling line things are getting back to normal.

Home game, half time I go for a pee and have a glass of red.

nice.

 

Next season, Oriol back, Nathan Tella on, Mini Minor gone, Redmond gone, Saints look good.

 

Yes, but compare that to one higher league position which is at least £1mm. It becomes s stupid selection

 

Can we please have a ban on references to drinking alcohol on this board please. It is lowering my resistance to the demon drink at a time when I mustn't imbibe.

 

We're winning.

 

Despite him!

 

I think it is a combo of this £ we get off for time played and wanting to keep Liverpool happy so we can loan another of their players in the future.

 

We shouldn't be "keeping Liverpool happy". It's utter bollocks, they're our rival in the league, we shouldn't be playing and developing their players for us if they're not up to it (of which Minamino doesn't appear to be)

 

Well both been mentioned now so I feel vindicated in my drink.

 

Lovely ball in from Prowsie there.

 

We are in the same league but they aren't our rivals. Makes sense to me to play him in nothing games like this one if it means we can get someone else in in the future. Giving minutes to someone like Tella is fine but I don't think youngsters learn all that much in dead rubber games like this one
