Tottenham Hotspur Home lost 1 – 4
Saints made an ideal start against Tottenham when Van Dijk headed home Ward-Prowse’s free kick after just 70 seconds. They looked comfortable with the lead too, with a pressing game denying the visitors any control, but that all changed when they got unlucky in the 19th minute: Sissoko’s cross took a deflection and fell perfectly […]
Postcards from Group K
You could forgive our welcome visitors from Europa League Group K for being a bit disappointed with our city: with due respect to The Bargate and Mayflower Park, Southampton doesn’t have the same attractions as the sights of the Holy Land, Milan’s chic or baroque Prague. Stuck away at the northern edge of the […]
Bournemouth Away Won 3 – 1
The game at Bournemouth completed an intense run of fixtures, but with eleven days before the next match, surely Saints would field their strongest team for what one side at least regarded as a ‘South Coast Derby?’ If that was indeed the case, then overlooked senior players like Fonte and Davis may have used their […]
Problems With Tickets
Please can you all be aware that for the second occasion this week, one of the London Saints members has been denied access to the ground, because the ticket has been cancelled and a duplicate ticket issued, fortunately both managed to get into the games, but both had to pay for an additional ticket. Due […]
Stoke City Away Dew 0 – 0
The December round of midweek Premier League fixtures was unwanted by anyone, especially all associated with Southampton and their Europa and League Cup commitments; at least the insubstantial away following at Stoke meant you could sit down through the entire game – the downside was there was nothing to stand up for. The game’s only […]
Middlesborough Home Won 1 – 0
The day after a Saturday when the Premier League just rained goals, Southampton and Middlesbrough showed the world how the modern game should be played. At least there was a rare sub-29,000 attendance to witness a dreadful game, although the number of empty seats suggest less than the published number turned up – and you […]
Europa League Be’er Sheva Home Drew 1 – 1
By placing Southampton in pot 3 for the Europa League draw, UEFA at least didn’t expect them to qualify from Group K, but Inter’s poor form upset all the seedings – as we all know, Saints had a great chance to go through by keeping a home clean sheet against Hapoel Be’er Sheva, the only […]
Crystal Palace Away Lost 3 – 0
It was all going so well: a strong starting XI at Crystal Palace with only Davis rested out of those you’d like to see playing, and the team were duly passing their way around Selhurst Park – no-one was too surprised that they didn’t much look like scoring as that might have been asking too […]
Arsenal Away EFL Cup – Quarter-Final Won 2 – 0
As November slips into December, it’s usually time for Southampton to bow out of the League Cup at the quarter final stage – they’ve done so for the last two seasons and seven times in total since progressing to the 1987 semis. Drawn away to Arsenal, the bookmakers thought this time would be no different, […]
Everton Home Won 1 – 0
Inevitably there were jeers as Ronald Koeman returned to St. Mary’s with Everton, but of course RK was responsible for jetting us off to Israel, Milan and Prague, plus Arnhem and that pokey little place in Denmark. I don’t see anyone to blame particularly for the divorce; the Koemans have a career plan that involves […]
