Match Day Thread Southampton v Sheffield United, 26th July, 4pm

It’s on sky sports mix.

 

Just the the the thing for those boring games, MOTD, Talk sport and similar.

 

Odd, I notice lots of shots showing-off the secondary sponsor's emblem. Danny's almost hiding/distracting us from our esoteric primary sponsor's name with his arm/tatoo sleeve. Is there some kind of existential anxiety at play

Weird isn't it, almost like they don't want to show the main shirt sponser because they've changed it...and actually have a real sponsor and it's to be a surprise.
Hope so anyway as it's **** being sponsored by these clowns.

I particularly enjoyed the page about Danny Ince's season and I'm looking forward to seeing Pete Kyle Walker alongside Cedric

 

Just checked the odds for first goal scorer and it’s a tale of the two Nathan’s... Tella is 11/1 and Redmond is 12/1. I think that says it all with regard to how often Redmond doesn’t score. Would love him to prove me wrong with a hat trick tomorrow though!

 

Decent odds for Redders I think.

 

I'm assuming Ings is 1/100.

 

The 2019 season

Last August was the start of the journey
With a disappointing 3-0 defeat to Burnley
Next up were the champions elect
Defeat at home was all we could expect

Playing away there was no need to frighten
Especially with our 1st win 0-2 at Brighton
Fast forward to the game against Leicester
Fast forward again, we will leave that to fester

A loss to Everton, again at home
Into the. bottom 3, we began to moan
Then a great Christmas and happy new year
Wins against Tottenham and Chelsea to cheer

We get better, bottom 3 don't see us for dust
Saints climb the table, in Ralph we trust
Like a wrecking ball in the words of Miley Cyrus
the games were stopped for coronavirus

After the restart our performances are gritty
in the beautiful game we beat Manchester City
Another win at. Bompey in front of no crowd
Whatever against Sheffield, you've done us real proud

A mention for Ings who has been on song
Next season's round the corner, WE MARCH ON

Matchday... all a bit “meh” really.

4-3 Saints. Ings and Sharp Hat-tricks. JWP free kick for the winner

 

No, no, it's really important that we move up one place in the league. The crowd will be really up for this and I can feel the excitement building. Or is that a different issue? I've packed my sandwiches and lashings of White Lightning, and I'm setting off for the ground in a few minutes. Want to avoid the matchday traffic.

The most tension will be around trying to find a live stream, on Sky MagiMix, or similar.

 

....and for those that don't subscribe to the Murdoch Emprire???

NOW TV

 

We don’t pay for it either, got it free on virgin.

 

Why does it matter whose logo we have on the front? I could understand if people had ethical concerns about certain companies, but so long as they were the highest bidder, why does it matter that no one has heard of LD Sports?

 

Matchday .........last one for a bit.

 

I'll be out all afternoon, and there doesn't seem to be any means of setting up a NOW TV recording in advance. At least, it has defeated my technical wizardry. Oh well, last on MoTD it is.

It occurs to me that if we have a 6-6 draw with Sheffield United, and every other match finishes 0-0, with no shots recorded for any team, we still wouldn't be first on MoTD, bacause all of the other games have so much more riding on them. Cynical? Moi?

 

1 point would be nice, to take us up to the magic half century
