Let's hope for a nasty game. Vicious tackles. Red cards. No penalties though. We don't want a team winning on penalties as that will mean they'll have a psychological edge should the final go to penalties. I counted at least 3 penalty shouts for Southampton... it may well be a tactic they. will exp...

If he could pass the ball with the same speed he grows his hair, Southampton would already be in the League one!

You look at both those results and the winning team had about 35% possession. In fact if you look at most of their losses the magic number for opposition possession was between 30 and 35%. That’s as much to do with southamptons tactics as anything else but they are heavily reliant on transitions an...

The main thing I took away from the last game was that if you press Southampton high they will conceded possession. Think we have to be really on the front foot against them and we'll get rewards! And also shooting from the 18 yd box... Alex McCarthy is vunerable... lets not try and walk it into th...

Russell Martin, currently managing Southampton, has faced notable challenges and criticisms at his previous clubs, including MK Dons and Swansea City. **MK Dons' Defensive Frailties and Mid-Table Finish**: During his tenure at MK Dons, Martin's commitment to a possession-based style often led to def...

To beat Southampton in the Championship playoff final, Leeds United will need to focus on several key areas, drawing insights from their past encounters this season. **Defensive Organization** Southampton's attacking prowess has been evident, particularly with players like Adam Armstrong and Che Ada...

Ashley Barnes is still a prick!

A leeds supporter wades in on the Pinkun forum.

No , Wembley is the exact same size as every Premiership pitch and that of recent Premiership clubs with the only exceptions being Liverpool and Fulham due to the size of their grounds, It's regulations that they all have to meet so there's no extra space for anyone I seem to remember Jesse wanted ...

Didn’t get much right versus either of them this season. But I like Corboran and can’t stand Russell Martin. And while I’m less afraid of West Brom’s lineup, I think my hatred of Russell Martin pushes me over. Nothing would please me more than for us doing something similar to him as we did to Ashl...

I thought Camus used to play for us.

most likey it was that other Albert you were thinking of.

It was those fluorescent yellow neon gloves that blinded Sargent

It was a truly inspirational analogy involving the likes of Nostradamus, Leonardo Da Vinci, Clarke Carlisle, Joan of Arc, Brian the 3 legged sheep and Albert Camus. Completely forgotten it though now. Nostradamus, the enigmatic 16th-century seer, is often remembered for his cryptic prophecies that ...

Turned out nice again

just watched Finland Austria world championship ice hockey. The score is 2-2. Last shot of the game Austria score, everybody thinks it won't count cos the games over. When they check the clock it reads 00:00:02. Finland looses by 2 hundredths of a second.

Funny old game sport is, I was gutted.
