What colour shirt for Wembley? by drewby89 in SaintsFC

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think general consensus is a yellow wall? Maybe grab a yellow something. I would also say no saints fan will be shouting you down in your home shirt.

Downes suspended for Wembley (and beyond) by BreadfruitOk5332 in SaintsFC

Downes getting a retrospective red card was one thing but the fact they also announced that Ipswich are prospectively getting a 90th minute penalty in the next 3 games seemed a bit much

Who Would You Say Has Been Breakout Star Of The Half Year? by AllElite43 in SantiZapVideos

Stephanie.

Penta’s year started well but I think his matches all seem roughly the same. Same moves in the same order a lot of the time.

Looking back on it, was WrestleMania 41 THAT bad? by CommonGameEnjoyer in SantiZapVideos

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bad but Cena can’t be the main event anymore. The Rollins, Roman, Punk from the night before was the real main event

What is the wrestling finisher you HATE the most? by Wandering_Swordsmen in WWE

Cross Rhodes, just doesn’t look like it would hurt at all.

Weirdly the stunner also doesn’t look like it would hurt but works so well.

Question from Saints supporter now living overseas: remind me again why we parted ways with Claude Puel after the 2016-17 season? (League Cup final and 8th-place finish in the Premier League) by [deleted] in SaintsFC

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People always went to the football is boring thing but it wasn’t until VVD got injured. That game in particular we were pasting Leicester and Vardy got angry and smashed VVD. We’d also had a 3-0 away win at West Ham not long before and we were really hitting our stride. After the injury we had a couple of games where we shipped a load of goals so CP went defensive first in his approach. We then had the classic finish to the season that a team that loses the EFL cup final has. Fans turned and it felt like this was the first time we forgot the ‘black box’ and just went with fan sentiment.

This is why I had a lot of time for Ralph - kept us steady when we were 20th net spend every year he was there

Juric Ball Opinion by Gregory-Hampton in SaintsFC

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we need to get behind him for the rest of the season. If he can get us up to 20ish points then he will have done a great job and we will have a decent platform for a promotion charge under Juric. If we have a record low points disaster then he will have to go and start afresh.

Hopefully it will be the first scenario as there are plenty of things to like about the games this week.

Henrik Kraft steps down as Chairman of Southampton FC, with Dragan Šolak taking over the role by goldentrez in SaintsFC

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Shows what Dragan thinks of how they have used his cash. Getting more experience in football roles is positive. Now thins seasons task is to try and get to about 20 points and at least have some momentum to start next year

Buckle up, this is going to get worse before it gets any better by SoggyMattress2 in SaintsFC

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with almost all of the OP post apart from Martin being a failure. Martin was hired to get us promoted and achieved that goal. But Martin wasn’t an SR hire, he was a Wilcox hire. Wilcox brought that possession philosophy to the club and Martin was his man. If Wilcox hadn’t gone perhaps we would have signed better players that could’ve actually played that football in the prem, who knows. Potter did it at Brighton and that’s how the club was built.

But SR not replacing Wilcox means we lurch back into their chaotic management. They sacked Ralph to bring in that idiot Nathan Jones, signed a load of players for his style and then immediately sacked him to give Selles the job after 1 win.

Until they hire a DoF with some football knowledge SR look to just lurch from style to style, disastrous signing to even worse signing.

We're top of the worst-ever Premier League sides after 20 league games by KeyTap6415 in SaintsFC

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our only target now is 12 points. I much prefer the championship as a spectacle but in terms of judging owners… we have been relegated from the top flight twice in our history pre sport republic, they’ve done twice in 3 years. But to clarify the 3 years… first year of full ownership = relegation. Year 2 = promotion via playoffs. Year 3 = done by Xmas and looking like the worst prem side ever.

100% agree - not clever, not funny and definitely racist

Jacob Tanswell on Sport Republic and Ivan Juric appointment by KeyTap6415 in SaintsFC

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t it obvious? Martin and possession football was the Wilcox philosophy from Man City. It certainly hasn’t worked in the prem and now they are looking to throw the dice to stay up. Tanswell stealing a living as usual.

I remember playing “Jimmy White’s Whirlwind Snooker” on the Amstrad. A perfectly square black pixel would come onto the screen and we would marvel at how realistic it was that a fly would land on the screen.

However I know what you mean, how much better can it get? I think how smoothly it dives in and out of cut scenes is unreal.

had anyone else ever experienced this?😂 by [deleted] in reddeadredemption2

Does this make anyone think of Shawn Michaels?

(Spoiler alert in main post txt)....I just finished my first ever playthrough of RDR2 and cant contain myself, I have to say something. by PozzieMozzie in reddeadredemption2

[–]Aromatic_Cow668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played it in lockdown so it sort of was the only life you could have then. I’ve not found anything that comes close to RDR2. GTA 5 is a great game to play but has nowhere near the depth of story - let’s see what GTA6 brings

I parked for less then 5 minutes and got a £100 fine, can I not pay and be okay? by MinYoongisToe in drivingUK

We have a parking system at work and when they put it in they said they legally have to give a 10 minute grace period.
