Scamp!
 
Saints v Toon today, what do you reckon mate?

Have to say as much as we need a win a draw wouldn't be so bad, we've hardly got enough players to put a full team out, horrible injury list..

The Toon fans are for travelling about a zillion miles only to see a dreadful game of football...

Did you watch the Aston Villa 0-0 Arsenal game yesterday evening? That was truly dreadful, although the non-stop rain/sleet probably didn't help. Almost as monotonous as the England rugby match. Simply bulldozers versus a brick wall.

God knows mate. If either Ba / Cisse are fit then they will have a field day with our defence.

Jack Cork is blinding for us now he's fit again.

So I'm a bit cautious about this one to be honest mate. On that basis I'll say 3-1 Saints.

That does a disservice to bulldozers and brick walls - butterflies and wet paper bags might be more appropriate metaphors (that's for Arse and the Villans - didn't watch the rugger and wouldn't have wanted to since that was the pairing that gave us the most tedious final of any major sporting championship ever in the 2007 WC).

Gave up after the first half, Villa stink to the high heavens this season. Did very much enjoy WBA smashing the filthy mackems mind.

Could have been 5.

First was error from Krul
Second was unlucky for Krul

Out the bottom three. Up the Saints!

...and we played you at the right time.

Also: Cisse and Ba looked awful and uninterested.

Yeah, and then you've got Ameobi on the bench....big change to the others.

You'll be alright, Cabaye / Ben Arfa back and you'll be laughing.
