Football touches so many aspects of so many people around the world. It strengthens our connections with our friends and family, it divides cities and separates countries. It can both pull us out of and drive us into depression, and it can embody the best and worst of humanity.

Football can be a force for good. This week we spoke with FC Not Alone co-founder Matt Legg about his mental health, starting FC Not Alone and working to help young men better address and care for their mental health through football. Dave Champ deserves special thanks for helping to set this interview up.

Follow FC Not Alone on Instagram - Twitter - and visit their website (fcnotalone.com) to get the latest articles and to find out more about how to get involved. They have been supported by CALM since the beginning, which you can find on Twitter here. Their website is here.

Dave stayed on the line after Matt exited and we discussed the Burnley match for a short while You can follow Dave on Instagram here.

Lastly, I was joined by Stephen of St. Mary’s Statbase on Instagram to discuss the success and focus of the page, including interviewing members of the women’s team. We also discuss the Burnley match further.

It was an episode with a full range of emotions. Something we are all familiar with as Saints Fans.

Thanks for everything!

This week we are dipping back into the show archive to replay a conversation I had with Kiko Rodriguez back in the summer of 2017. Kiko, on Twitter @KikoRod9, is, among other things, a founding member of @DRNSport and JRod’s dad.

JRod isn’t the focus of the episode, though the links to Burnley and the upcoming match pair nicely. Kiko had struggled with his mental health for a period and he agreed to discuss it a little bit with me on the show. With so many people struggling with their mental health right now, including myself, I felt it was a good time to put it back in the feed. Hopefully, you find it uplifting and encouraging.

Also, a special thanks to Robbie @_SaintsinFrance for originally connecting Kiko and I and arranging for him to come on the show.

The cup success continues for Saints who made easy work of a poor Bournemouth side on Saturday afternoon. There wasn’t much Vitality from the hosts as Nathan Redmond ran riot and had it not been for a few VAR decisions (correct ones, we should note) Saints would have embarrassed the Championship side even more.

Saints will now take on Leicester City in their semi-final at Wembley in April, but Tom Leach of Hampshire Live and I did not know that at the time we recorded. Tom has been covering Saints for Hampshire Live this season and has put up a number of impressive articles and interviews. In addition to discussing Saints, we talk about his career, Journalism, and more. You can follow Tom on Twitter @TomLeachHL

I also jumped on the Oh When the Saints Podcast this week. You can get the show here and follow them on Twitter if you don’t already! Jack and Pat do a great job with their show and newsletter!

Jack runs the Saints News and Views page on Twitter @SaintsFCViews and has done so since he created the account several years ago. Jack has been on the show several times, but unfortunately this time he got stuck with one of the worst performances of the year.

This week he’s here to discuss the losses to City and Brighton. One of them expected, one of them not, and both of them disappointing in their own unique way. If you don’t already follow Jack be sure to do so you are on Twitter and get involved with the discussion about Saints! And, thanks again to Jack for coming on and putting up with my audio issues this week!

Jake Huges gets up earlier for MMA than I do for Saints. The difference is, it’s not him getting punched in the face or kicked in the stomach when the action starts, which is what every match since January 4th has felt like, at least up until now.

Jake is always a pleasure to speak with and I hope you enjoy the little bit we actually put on the show. It’s a tough test for Saints midweek against Manchester City, but hopefully, we can take some momentum into the fixtures that follow.

I’ll be honest. We didn’t wait for the Everton match to record this week’s show. Partially it’s because of it being on a Monday night. Partially it’s because the things Chris Rann and I wanted to discuss don’t hinge on any ONE match- not even on the two matches where we lost a combined 18-0. So, it seemed like a good chance to just sit down and talk about Saints And that’s what we did.

Chris isn’t afraid to say what he thinks, which makes him a lot of fun to talk to. It was nice to get more than a tweet’s worth of info from him at a time, and I hope you enjoy the conversation. If you have comments, let us know. We are both pretty receptive and open-minded… And, for the record, we both want what’s best for the football club. Just like you do.

Saints made some changes this week. They changed formations, changed player positions, changed their recent run in the league (it no longer just has LLLLL) and so we changed up the matchday routine too.

This week I jumped on Mike Smales YouTube Channel to watch the match with him and Jack (You can get the channel here). It was a 4:30am kickoff for me, so I hadn’t even had a sip of coffee before kickoff. But, as I injected the caffeine, Taki injected some life into our performance and put us ahead. Chelsea leveled the score from the penalty spot, but overall it was a wonderful match to watch, especially with the company of Mike, Jack, and the people in the comments saying I look like Johnny Sins.

Anyway, getting to actually see and watch a match with other humans was great, even if it was via YouTube, and it was also a lot of fun to get to chat with Mike about the match afterward and give some praise to Minamino, Djenepo, Salisu, and Ralph.

As always, thanks for listening, and be sure to check out Mike and MAtchday Vlogs on YouTube and Social Media.. and when we are back in stadiums, seek him out to take part in the show!

The good news is there were no 9-0 losses this week. The Bad news… well, there’s still plenty. A KWP injury, a record 6th straight league loss for the club, a lack of response from the team, and VAR decisions (you know how those go these days). We can still smile about Stuart Armstrong, moving through in the cup, and I smiled when I spoke with this week’s guest Aydin Osman (on Twitter and Instagram @aydinosman96).

Let us know how you are feeling heading into next weekend!

If you asked a P*mpey fan to plan a birthday week for a Southampton fan last week would have been it. Losses 4 and 5 in a row in the league, a 9-0 defeat with 9 men, and a 3-2 loss to a team with 9 men. Add to it lockdowns, torrential rains, and a job predicated on people being able to actually see you, and you have Tom Deacon.

Tom is a comedian, host, presenter, Instagram Chef, a coffee connoisseur, and this week’s guest. If you don’t already follow Tom on Instagram (@tomdeaconcomedy) or Twitter (@TomHDeacon) I suggest you do. For the Saints content and because there are times when you just want to smile and he’ll help.

We walk through the matches, make jokes that probably don’t actually relate, and generally have a good time. I hope you enjoy it more than any 60-minute stretch of Saints in the last month.

Saints were rather predictable this week. A thin lineup, limited goals, more injuries, A deal sheet to get a transfer over the line, letting fullback (who Ralph doesn’t really truest) leave even though we don’t have cover, and us being snubbed in the transfer market for one reason or another. We’ve all been here before, but we keep coming back. If you keep coming back here, then thank you. I appreciate it!

Joining me this week to discuss Arsenal and Villa is Lucy Highett (on Twitter @lucyhighnett). Lucy is one of my favorite guests to have on (I’m probably not supposed to have those, but I do). She keeps me honest, challenges my thinking, and helps me out with FPL decisions when I’m stuck. I struggled to be as positive as normal this week, and I apologize for that. As I write this post-transfer window, I'm not sure exactly how to feel. But, I know I enjoyed making this episode, and I hope you enjoy it too!

Saints managed two wins in the FA Cup since the last episode was released. A Tuesday night victory over Shrewsbury and a Saturday afternoon win against Arsenal means a few things for Saints in the coming weeks. 5th round FA Cup Clash with Wolves is set for February 10th, the 5th of 6 matches in 3 weeks for Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side.

Saints have further injury concerns with KWP out of action for Tuesday as well. How Ralph manages the minutes over the next couple of weeks will be interesting, to say the least.

Joining me this week to recap the past week, answer your questions and look forward it Tom Mason, writer and reporter for Prost International (website here) You can find Tom on Twitter @tommason18 and Instagram @tom_mason19.

A depleted Saints squad failed to take anything from Leicester City on Saturday night. But we lost more than just points. With the schedule jammed, further injuries and suspensions mean Saints will look to bring youth into the mix in future matches. In addition to the Leicester City match, Saints released their 2020/2021 accounts and announced a new kit deal with Hummel. Joining me to discuss it all is OneFootball editor Blaise Bourgeois. Blaise is an American living in Mexico and someone whose life could not be less like mine. We have common ground, though in our love of Saints. I enjoyed getting to know Blaise a bit better and I hope you enjoy the show. Follow Blaise on Twitter and Instagram @BlaiseBourgeois.

2021 is supposed to be better than 2020. It’s not like the bar was particularly high but we’ve definitely stumbled out of the blocks this January. With COVID infection rates rising, and Saints’ 3rd Round FA Cup match postponed, for now, Chris Hutchings (@hutchfm on Twitter) joined the show to peel back the layers to the onion Ralph cut last week against LFC, as well as the impact of COVID, the youngsters, and the transfer window. As always, let us know what you think.

It’s not everyday Saints knock off Liverpool in the League. In fact, it’s not even every year or every other. In fact, it hadn’t happened since a 3-2 come from behind win under Ronal Koeman’s watch. There were a number of reasons Saints should not have won on Monday night, but none of them matter. The squad depth, the injuries, illnesses, and other calamities that reduced the squad to what it was, Hasenhuttl’s record against Klopp. But, none of those mattered. Saints took 3 points from the defending champions and current league leaders, shooting themselves to 6th in the table, and putting in a performance that brought the big man to tears.

Joining me this week to discuss the match and address your questions is Prost International’s, Jacob Tanswell. Jacob is a longtime Saints fan and journalist and it was a real pleasure to have him on the show. Because of the Monday night fixture we spoke on two occasions. During part 1 we looked at listener questions and discuss the disappointing end to Saints 2020 calendar year, and in part 2 we look back at Saints 1-0 victory over Liverpool on Monday night.

Be sure to give Jacob a follow on Twitter @J_Tanswell and get his writing at Prost International.

The holiday period is a busy time for people in English football. Managing training, matches, family, and your personal mental and physical health becomes even more difficult when the schedule bunches up around the holidays. Dean Hammond knows that, and that’s why we recorded this episode over a month ago. Between his role analyzing Saints matches for the Final Whistle, running Dean Hammond Elite Fitness, raising his kids, being a husband, commentating, and staying in shape, Dean is beyond busy and Leon and I were blessed to be able to sit down with him for over an hour to discuss his career at Saints, lifting a trophy at Wembley, making it to the Premier League, goal setting, answering your questions and more.

A huge thank you also goes out to Will and Leon of Saints Archive. Their patience and passion really help episodes like this come together and it’s a pleasure to work with them!

Saints welcomed Manchester City to St. Mary’s for a 3:00pm kickoff on Saturday. Despite playing with City for 90+ minutes, losing Danny Ings in the first half, and pinning City back for portions of the match, the visitors left the south coast with all 3 points and Saints saw themselves fall to 7th in the table by the time the week’s matches concluded.

There is a balance between performances and points. Saints won ugly against Brighton, dispatched Sheffield United, let Arsenal off the hook, and went at City with everything Ralph would have expected. The result just didn’t come off. But, at least there’s still Christmas… oh, wait.

Jay Grant, the man behind @Southamptonpage and a partner of the show, joins this week’s show. We’ll discuss the City match and your questions, and consider the impact of Mike Dean and Oriol Romeu’s inevitable coming together, and look ahead briefly to Fulham.

As always, let us know what you think, and thank you again for all of your support over a year that’s treated us all pretty badly.

Last week Saints won ugly. This week they welcomed fans back to St. Mary’s with a dominant, beautiful performance that made all of us smile at least a few times during the 90 minutes. It was an emotional day for many, including the manager himself, and although not everyone could be there, it obviously meant a lot to have fans back behind the team in person. If you were one of the lucky ones to be there in person, congratulations. The other 30,000 hope to join you soon, including Dan from Saints Brass, who joins the show this week. They were not allowed to join in at the stadium this week, and we discuss what the pandemic has been like for them and how football has gone as well. We also chat the Fan Forum and answer your questions. I hope you enjoy it.

If you’d like to hear them before then, you can give them a follow on Social Media. They are @saintsbrass on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook and you can also find them at saintsbrass.com. If you missed Dan's first appearance on the show, you can find it here.

We’ll keep this pretty short and sweet. Saints did not play well on Monday night. The second half was better than the first, but neither was very impressive, especially going forward. But, we took 3 points from the AMEX and saw the return of the king. So, we can celebrate those and learn from the rest.

Matt Neuhausen, a Saints fan living in Florida, joins me this week to discuss the match and address your questions. Follow him on Twitter @neuhausenmatt and on Instagram @neuhausen_matt.

Saints lost to Manchester United at St. Mary’s after holding a 2-0 lead going into halftime. It was the first loss since Spurs torched Saints’ high backline for 5 goals in September, bringing an end to an undefeated run that stretched 7 matches (5 wins and 2 draws).

On the day it was disappointing to lose, given the halftime scoreline. But, on the balance of play, I don’t think it was totally unfair. United were better for much of the match, and Cavani’s movement gave our defense a tough time.

Still, there’s plenty to celebrate, including yet another JWP free-kick that was all but perfect and the fact that if VAR wasn’t ruining football we’d be in the top 5. Joining me to discuss the match and his newest project, Lawrie and The Boy’s of 76, is Michael Kurn. We’ll discuss his new documentary which looks back at the 1976 FA Cup Final, developments around the football, and, of course, the United match.

To get in touch with Michael and learn more about Lawrie and The Boy’s of 76, visit lifeofasaint.co.uk. You can also follow Michael on Twitter and Instagram @michaelkurn. You can also follow Sholing FC by visiting sholingfc.co.uk or by going to @sholingfc on Twitter.

Saints managed a point away to Wolves, Theo got his goal, and Alex McCarthy saved almost everything. It’s a point to be proud of, and probably a fair result. With Thanksgiving just days away, I think I’ll just take the point.

Joining me this week is the host of Serie A Sitdown (Twitter, YouTube) and SchalkeMerica (Twitter, YouTube), Richard Kharman @r_kharman on Twitter and Instagram). Kharman is a longtime Saints fan, podcaster and writer, and is always a pleasure to talk to. Last time he was on the show we discussed hotel gate and Gabbiadini’s late winner at Swansea. This time, we talk the draw, fouls, Romeu, McCarthy and more.

I just want to start by saying thank you. To all of you. If you have been a guest, a listener, or a Patron, if you’ve asked a question, written a review, left a comment or shared the show over the past 200 weeks, thank you. When I started the show I never really thought about what it would be like getting to 50, 100, or 200 episodes. It’s been so many different things. I’d rather just keep my head down and move to 201, but the support for the show is a tad overwhelming. So, thank you. I’m proud of the show, not because I’m doing it, but because it’s a little spark of joy in my life and hopefully yours too, and because it’s brought me closer to so many of you and the football team we love. (Enough of this).

This week I’m joined by Dan James to discuss our respective streaks. 259 straight matches for him, 200 straight weeks for me. The highs, the lows, the ridiculous decisions, and our favorite memories. It’s a little more “down memory road” than normal, but it was a fun conversation to have. I hope you enjoy it. If you’d like to follow Dan you can do that @thedanjames on Twitter and Instagram.

A Southampton team missing its talisman and its veteran left-back put on a show on Friday night. The team completely swept Newcastle aside and did so in a way that Steve Bruce’s next detective mystery novel could be all about how a man from Austria came to England and slew all in his path.

Saints finished the night on top of the Premier League table and will spend the international break in a Champions League place. There’s still way too much of the season left for us to become fixated on table position, but we really are playing some impressive football, and, as Freddie says in the show, we need to enjoy it.

Southampton Football Club dismantled Aston Villa for the first 60 minutes of Sunday’s match at Villa Park scoring four beautiful goals and playing some fantastic football as well. The final 30 minutes were an absolute nightmare. From injuries to conceding 3 goals, 2 in stoppage time. However, Saints took the points and gave themselves a chance to go top of the table for at least 1 night with a win this Friday at home to Newcastle. Who knew we would be here after losing 0-9 just a year ago.

Joining me to discuss the match and the impact are the guys from the In That Number Podcast. You can get the In That Number Podcast each week wherever you listen to podcasts and you can get in touch with them on Twitter and Instagram. Their artwork is done by @saintsnewsnow.

We spoke directly after the match, so we knew less about the injuries than we do now. But, hopefully, you enjoy the show. Let us know what you think!

Saints knocked off Everton on Sunday afternoon, protecting Arsenal’s Invincibles for yet another year, and yet somehow failing to avoid the “they lost 0-9 a year ago. They’ve come a long way since then…” tropes from pundits and commentators alike. It was one of the best performances I can remember from a Saints team. From creating chances to defending set-pieces to controlling the game up by two goals and, eventually, with a man advantage. I expect Saints to press everyone we play, to disrupt the flow of the game, to put it maximal effort. But I didn’t expect Saints to show some other sides of the game. The team is growing, Ralph is molding them, and they are a lot of fun to watch.

Matt Beling joined me after the match this week to talk through the main points including both goals, the red card, and Nathan Redmond’s MOTM performance (I don’t know about that one, honestly). We also discuss Matt’s new podcast, the 3PL Podcast (Google Podcasts and Spotify), and, as always, you can follow Matt on Instagram @wearesouthampton for more great coverage of the team and fantastic edits and graphics.

Saints went to London and, with Chelsea, put on a show… for the 0 fans in attendance, the international audiences who watched for almost nothing, those in the pubs down the street from the stadium and around England, those who listened on the radio, and the few who decided to pay up the £14.95 to watch from home.

and the few who decided to pay up the £14.95 to watch from home.

It wasn’t a match you’d show your kids and say “go do that.” Especially if said kid is a defender or goalkeeper, but it was entertaining for most of the 90 minutes. Of course, it’s a bit sweeter given we scored the stoppage-time equalizer, but it was an extremely exciting point for Saints complete with debuts, returns, late goals, and more.

Joining me to discuss it all is Alex Hammond (on Twitter @alxhmnd21) who has spent time covering Eastleigh and other sporting events around England. Alex joined me some time ago after Abdoulaye Doucouré punched us all in the nether regions when he handled the ball into the goal to earn Watford a draw a few years back… (pre VAR).

This week I am proud to present the first-ever collaboration between the Saints Archive and this show, as we team up to continue the work they started with the Total Saints Podcast and bring you Total Recall. In our first edition of Total Recall, we spoke with former Saint Malcolm Waldron, who played his football for Saints in the late 1970s and early 1980s, before moving on and eventually being forced to retire due to a knee injury.

It’s always exciting to try something a little bit different, but the best part about doing this show (and part of the reason I started the podcast) is meeting, listening to, and learning from so many great people. Malcolm, Leon, and Will all deserve a lot of credit for this one, I just recorded it… and it’s an honor to have done so.

With that said, I hope you enjoy the show. Please let us know who else you would like to hear from in the future, and, most importantly, thanks for listening!

We’re all about positivity this week. The only negative is my COVID19 test results so there’s no need to quarantine, and with Saints getting a 2-0 win this weekend, there’s no need to socially distance myself from the result either.

Saints managed a fully competent performance on Sunday afternoon. Aside from a 15-minute spell to start the second half, Saints controlled the game in its entirety. They created chances, took 1 nicely, karate kicked another, and had a few more chances to add to the total. In the end, a fairly comfortable performance, albeit one that can still be improved on.

Joining me to discuss the match on this week’s show is Steve Forbes on Twitter (@forbesypresents) and Instagram (@forbesypresents). Steve is one of the matchday presenters at Southampton FC. He left the live pre-game show and the Final Whistle Podcast recording to come join me for this show, and for that I thank him. He went from sitting across from Kenzie Benalie and chatting with Joe Prince-Wright and Dean Hammond to looking at my bald, up-since-4:00am, bags under my eyes having self. He’s basically a Saint.

We talk about the match and a bunch of unrelated stuff, but I’ll take the blame for that. I had plenty of medicine before, during, and after the recording, so things got a little loopy. If you would like to listen to the Final Whistle Podcast put out by the club, you can do so on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Saints finally did it. There is no substitution for a win, under any circumstances. Do the dirty work off the ball, take your chance, put in the hard yards, and whatever other cliches you’d like to add in, because they add up to 3 points, on the road, at a place, and against a team, that’s been a nightmare for us in recent seasons.

Yes, Burnley were far from full-strength, and, no, they aren’t exactly having a nice time, but I don’t care. A goal for Ings, a win for Saints, and some hope that we finally may be starting to play a little bit of the football we saw at the end of last season (that is probably going too far, I know).

Joining me on this week’s show is the man behind St. Mary’s Musings and a lot of MMA content as well, Jake Hughes. Jake has a new podcast out called 3 F’s, all about Fifa, Football, and Football Manager. You can get it on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts (more links here).

Saints were cut open by the Son/Kane combo as Hojberg and José Mourinho took all 3 points from the south coast in what was a second-half I would like to forget (and that I woke up at 4:00am to see).

Christian Candler joins me this week to discuss the loss and try to put together how Saints have fallen from grace over the short break, and how they might look to get out of it! Give Christian a follow on Twitter (@candlerneuro) and on Instagram (@c.ndler), and you can read some of his writing at candler.us

The Southampton Dellivery Podcast is proud to support the work of kick it out as they work to tackle racism and discrimination in the game we all love. See how you can get involved at kickitout.org.

We were all very excited about the start of the Premier League season. And with good reason. Ralph was here, we got KWP permanently, we hadn’t lost at Selhurst Park in several years, and with that, more than 98% of Saints fans who voted on the Athletic’s poll said they were optimistic about the start of the season. But, when the season kicked off Saints didn’t, and they failed to win again on opening day. But, it’s not all doom and gloom, and Tom Murray and I try to take some positives out of a disappointing day against the Eagles.

Lucy Highnett (@lucyhighnett on Twitter) joined me on Sunday to help get me (and you) ready for the fast-approaching 2020/2021 Premier League season. From JWP’s penalty spot groundskeeping in Reykjavík to shirt sponsors, TV deals, and transfers, Lucy and I discuss the ongoings, and the hopeful outgoings, of everything around the team. I also admit some pretty embarrassing things and insult Burnley midfielders (that one is for you, Dan), all because we were having a good time.

I always enjoy having Lucy on the show and I look forward to having her back on when the season gets underway. Also, I know there will be people who, after listening to this episode, say “you don’t know anything about this team either.” Fair play to all of you in advance. Also, I promise, I really do love this team.

Lastly, I also appeared on the In That Number podcast this week, if you need some extra Saints FC chat in your life. You get subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

A busy week for Saints means a packed show for you. Rob Maddox (@robmaddox_ on Instagram) joins the show. From new numbers to changed front of shirt sponsors, England call-ups and more, Rob and I roll through the week that was around Saints. I definitely made some mistakes, and circumstances have changed since we recorded, but here is the conversation that we had. I hope you enjoy it, and most importantly, thanks for listening!

Joining me this week to briefly discuss the release of the fixture list and introduce this week’s show is Will Dawe, owner of Saints Archive. We are teaming up to continue the tradition of the Total Recall segment which formerly appeared on the Total Saints Podcast for the past few seasons. This week we are bringing you the original Total Recall interview with a very special guest. Will, Ben, and Leon chatted to the man who played the pass for Bobby Stokes in 76 (and he did a lot of other things as well). Jim McCalliog is held in high regard around Southampton, Wolverhampton, and elsewhere, and he also loves to chat. We’re working on more episodes, and we wanted to bring you this one to whet your appetite. Make sure to follow the Saints Archive on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and at saintsarchive.com

*Note- thanks for all of the birthday and well wishes. The fires in California are serious, but they are several hours away from us and all of my family is safe- we're hoping their houses will be too. Thanks to everyone who checked in! Take care of yourselves!

So much happened this week in the world of Saints, and most of it happened after we recorded this episode. But that’s fine because this week was never supposed to be about Saints. This week we’re focusing on the Southampton Women’s Football Club (Soton Women’s FC) and we’re joined by first-team coach Lee Hurrell and new signing Jodie Burchell.

Between the two of them, we walk through the end of last season, learning from hard times, moving, reaching for goals (and scoring them), and much more. They got their preseason underway in a friendly on Sunday, so be sure to check in with them on their new website and stay up-to-date with them on their push for promotion.

As always, get in touch with the club using the links below. The club and players rely on sponsorships to keep them on the field and their season would be impossible without them. You can also get in touch with Hayley for any media inquires. All links are below.

This week we are back with more conversation about last season. We’ll follow roughly the same format with one major difference. In addition to talking about moments and players that stood out over the last 11 months, I/we have a major announcement. Will, the Saints Archive, and I are teaming up to help make sure the “Total Recall” segment of Total Saints Podcast continues. After speaking with Ben from TSP and working it out with Will, it’s an honor to be able to partner with the Archive and help make sure the interviews and reflections keep going.

For the next two weeks (Ep. 185 and 186) we'll chat with several fans of the team and the show and get their thoughts and assessments on the season that just ended, and ask them what they think needs to happen in order to make sure we keep moving forward next year. I spoke with Luke Millard and Justin Woodward in the normal podcast recording space early last week before having to make the drive north to Washington state to deal with some family stuff. While I was there I had to delay a couple of recordings because we were busy, but I did manage to speak with Graham Copp and Tim Bisantz... I spoke to them from the passenger seat of the car. I have no regrets other than I wish the coffee shop would have been open before we started.

The 2019/2020 season is finally over. A lot of bad things we never imagined could happen actually happened. Liverpool won the league, we got beat 0-9 at home (in case you missed it) we’re in the middle of a world-wide pandemic, there are continued instances of racial injustice all around, and Total Saints Podcast called it quits. But, there are some positive signs as well. Saints had their best finish to a season in several years, the club look to be addressing issues in the squad already, Bournemouth are relegated, we beat them, P*mpey, and Brighton in their own backyards, took 18 points from the promoted teams over the course of the season and we have RALPH HASENHUTTL as our manager.

To help recap the Sheffield match and discuss the season I’m joined by Jake Hughes of St. Mary’s Musings. It’s always great to chat with Jake, even if he doesn’t like Oriol Romeu as much as some of us do. Then, after that, I’m joined by Zach Lowy to discuss Mohammed Salisu, who is rumored to have already signed but has yet to be announced by the club. I’m truly thankful to both of them for sharing their time, and you for listening. I look forward to speaking with them again, and I hope you enjoy the show!

Che Adams’ late strike put the nail in a Saints FC shaped nail in Bournemouth’s coffin, but the death blow came just moments earlier when VAR ruled out their late equalizer for offside.

Honestly, it wasn’t very pretty. Bournemouth were more direct than THAT overconfident guy in the bar around 1:45 am after 16 drinks. We didn’t really press Bournemouth in their own half, mostly because they sent it upfield as soon as they had it at their feet. Still, Danny Ings managed a goal (we’ll forget the saved penalty), Saints kept a clean sheet, made it 31 points on the road this season (second only to Liverpool), eclipsed Puel’s point total of 46, and have a chance to finish as high as 11th… and all that despite losing 0-9 to Leicester City in October. Can you believe it!

Joining me on the show this week to discuss the match and chat about the team and the season is Ben Stroud, author of a few horror stories and the Archers Road End blog, which I love and miss.

I wouldn’t say Saints surprised us in the last two matches, and they shouldn’t have surprised Manchester United on Monday night either. The gameplan was, at its core, the same. Press. Force Mistakes. Take Chances. Make them beat you. And, it worked. The hottest team in the Premier League since the Project Re-Start kicked off was forced to drop points for just the second time since football came back. Star players were held in check, pockets were picked, and Saints left with a well-deserved point after taking an early lead and then clawing back a late equalizer.

Joining me to discuss the match this week is Alex Hart (Twitter @hartgarfunkel), a US-based Saints fan that I met (virtually) after Carl Anka captured our shared love of Saints in THIS article in The Athletic. It was fantastic to get to chat with Alex and get his thoughts on how Saints have been playing in recent weeks, and assess what might happen going forward, in this season’s remaining fixtures and into next season.

Alex has also been a guest on the Total Saints Podcast (Ep. 70 and Ep. 106) where he shared his story of becoming a fan of the club in more detail that we go into here. So if you would like to know more about that side of the story, check out those episodes!

Saints managed to do what only checks notes 6 other teams had managed this season, beat Manchester City in the Premier League. We aren’t going to go full Bournemouth and start claiming a trophy for winning a football match- we’ll also defer the trophy for most viewed Premier League match- but we should take the time to recognize the victory and realize the impact a win over the defending Champions could have going forward. After all, it was Stuart Armstrong’s pressure that produced the Che Adams chance which, in case you missed it, he put away brilliantly.

Sure, we sat deeper and deeper as the match went on, and on most other days at least one or two of City’s shots deflect off of a defender and find their way into the net, or a cross finds the head of an attacker at the back post, but not this time. Saints managed to do it at home for only the 14th time in 3 years. And, in case you missed it, Che Adams scored his first Saints goal. It truly was a wonderful day.

To make it even better, Lucy Highnett (@lucyhighnett on Twitter) joins the show. We recorded on the final whistle, which means we’re both on a bit of a high. Hopefully it all makes sense… if you need to put yourself in the mindset before you listen, just watch this short video.

As always, thanks for listening and any feedback you have!

The football season is most definitely back. The rollercoaster ride that is following Saints is here, and we experienced it all this week. Our emotions followed the team up and down as Saints lost to Arsenal in disappointing fashion, keeping the home form intact, and then went on the road to HAND Watford a defeat and take all three points back to St. Mary’s.

Saints now sit on 40 points. Closer to 7th than 17th (though other teams have games to come later this week), and we can be relatively confident in how the team responded to the performance against Arsenal.

This week I am joined by two guests, Chris Hutchings spoke with me on Friday morning to relive Arsenal and talk about the experience of being in the ground when then doors are closed and seeing Premier League football without a crowd. We also discuss the match, which wasn’t that great. Luckily, Chris is. You can follow him on Twitter @HutchFM.

I then caught up with Jay Grant who runs the partner page of the show, the Southampton Page, on Twitter and Instagram. We had the pleasure of reliving the win at Watford, the performance of some of the rotated players, and we also discussed what we expect to see against City. We recorded on the final whistle and were, understandably, excited. At least we finished on a high!

A three-month layoff might have been just what Danny Ings and company needed as Saints began Project Restart with an emphatic 0-3 win at Carrow Road. Southampton began slowly but grew into the game, and from the first hydration break on it was all Saints.

Joining me this week to recap the match, the team selection, the performances, and address your questions is Bene Holley, a Saints fan from Italy who also blogs about the club and helps run the Saints World Twitter account. Bene has a connection to Southampton and I really enjoyed getting to hear his thoughts on the match, getting to know him a bit, and learning more about his blog and writing.

We made it, mostly. Only a few more days until Saints return to action, albeit in an empty stadium and in different circumstances than normal. To help get us ready for the return of football I’m joined by The Athletic’s Carl Anka. For those of you who don’t know Carl covers Saints for the Athletic, as well as appearing on various podcasts from The Totally Football Show to TIFO and also Talk of the Devils. He has also been kind enough to share his time with us here. It’s always a pleasure to speak with Carl and I hope you enjoy the show!

So, since we recorded this week’s show a lot has happened. Ralph’s due to sign a new contract extension and project restart is inching ever closer to bringing football back to us. In larger news, We saw demonstrations by players in the Bundesliga, and protests have gone on for days around the US, with things turning violent in several instances.

Steve Forbes, matchday presenter at Southampton FC, joins me this week. We discuss, among other things, his journey to the job, what it looks like, how he went from selling mobile phones and working in call centers to quarreling with Sammy and taking charge of the halftime relay, while still making time to cook, present the news, and entertain us all while he’s doing it.

You can find Steve on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook @forbesypresents, and you can get him in your ears on Global’s breakfast show. You can also visit his website forbesypresents.com.

*This week’s notes: Jay, who runs the Southampton Page on Twitter, and who is the official partner of the show, was due to be on this week. We had the recording time set pretty late and then he got ill. I’ve been meaning to find a way to get this episode back out, and now seems like the perfect time, especially since Jay was the one who set it up in the first place.

It’s not very often that most of us get to speak to former professionals. Some are public figures in broadcasting or coaching, some move on to other careers, and some slip away from the crowds and make a life for themselves with their families. Those that are public often seem, at least to me, unreachable. You can see them, you may even say hello, but to actually sit down and have a chat is not something most of us will get the chance to do.

John, of the Saints FC Podcast, has managed to track down several former pros for the podcast, and I truly enjoy those episodes because I learn so much about the team and the players of the time, a time before I began following the red and white stripes, before I began singing “Oh When the Saints” at 4:00am most Saturdays before I began calling it football. For that reason, I feel especially honored to have had the chance to speak with former Saints and Finland goalkeeper Antti Niemi. If you have been a fan of Saints since the early 2000s then you will know Antti. The blonde-haired shot-stopper is a fan favorite remembered for his cat-like reflexes and acrobatic saves in goal.

But, prior to doing this interview with him, I didn’t really know him at all. So, in the very short time between learning about the opportunity and actually speaking with him, I enjoyed learning about him and his career, watching highlight videos, and reading up on other interviews he had done. My hope is that the interview is slightly different than what he would have been asked elsewhere. I didn’t want to do the same old interview, but I hope the interview I did is enjoyed by whoever listens. There are so many other people out there probably better suited to do this interview, but I am grateful for the chance to speak to such a thoughtful, talented, kind and hardworking person.

Antti is still active in football. In addition to coaching for Finland he likes to spend time fishing and with his family.

He is on Instagram @anttimniemi.

Special thanks to Jamie Grant for setting this interview up. Thanks also to Lee Calendar and Michael Kurn for helping with some of the question ideas.

Chris Hutchings joins me this week to chat about Saints. We look back on how he became a fan, how he began commentating, escorting fans from around the world around St. Mary’s, and working for OPTA. We also discuss the likelihood of Hojbjerg leaving, what that means for the team, Project Restart, football without fans, and more. More than anything, it was just a fantastic opportunity to spend some time learning about Chris and his connection with the club. I’m finding more and more during this COVID19 break that the people who support and work around the club, and their stories, are, at least to me, more interesting, rewarding, and engaging than complaining about a misplaced pass or Cedric’s lack of back-post defending. I hope you enjoy the show. You can get in touch with Chris to talk football, stats, or anything else, @hutchfm on Twitter.

For the last few weeks, it’s been a mixture of confusion and uncertainty, and even with the PL’s announcement of potentially resuming on June 1st, it’s still largely that way. Until we know more, we’ll just stay alert.

This week we’re avoiding most of that and diving into trips to the Dell, Ferry rides, keeping up with Saints from abroad before the internet was a thing, cup finals won and lost, and more with Graham Copp. Graham is a lifelong Saints fan from the Isle of Wight and who now lives near Washington DC. He’s written for the Ugly Inside and seen Saints up and down England and in the US. It was a real pleasure to be able to chat with him about his memories of the team, and just reflect and reminisce on some of the moments he’s enjoyed (and some of those he didn’t) for a while.

I hope you enjoy the chat. If you’d like to get in touch with Graham just send me a message and I’ll forward it on to him.

I saddled Tom with the unattractive prospect of discussing league and club finances along with Post-Brexit work permits and more, all with an eye on how Saints will be impacted going forward. Tom also walks us through the moments that stood out to him during the season and we do answer some listener questions as well, from midfielders to Italian Stallions.

Let us know what you think, and be sure to get in touch with Tom and me!

This week the Coronavirus took one of our SaintsFC family members. Mark Channon lost his life to the disease just days ago. Our thoughts go out to his partner, child and the rest of his family and loved ones. Additionally, his family has asked that any donations you wish to make go to the NHS.

Tom Mason spent a lot of this year covering Bristol Rovers while at University. With in-person sessions at school being called off, and football not taking place, he was able to come on the show this week and chat about everything from League 1 finances to the 4-0 pasting Saints lead on the team down the road. We also discuss the future of some of the squad and answer several listener questions. You can follow Tom on Twitter (@tom_mason18) and Instagram @tmaso19.

This week we roll through the Yan Valery Twitter storm that erupted on Friday (with no comment from him or the team or any reporter), the potential return of the PL, Rahdi Jahidi’s coaching in the USL, take some listener questions and more. As always it was great to catch up with Zach and chat Saints even though we didn’t get the chance to do it in person a few weeks ago at the Saints FC event in Chicago.

I’ve joked in the past, both to the Saints FC podcast guys and Total Saints Podcast crew, and perhaps publically, that when we started our respective shows Saints’ form took a turn for the worse. The second half of Puel’s season, followed by Pellegrino and Hughes. For a time, it seemed like the more podcasts we had the worse the team did. With Saints seeming to turn it around somewhat recently, Patrick Surlis and his brother Jack went about setting up their show (Oh When The Saints and on Twitter @OWTSaintspod). There wasn’t a downturn in form when they did, though. Instead, the world almost stopped turning, a Global Pandemic froze life as we know it and football basically became something we wish we could see again. Still, Patrick and Jack continued with their passion, and now the first three episodes are out for all of us to enjoy with our added downtime. So far Patrick and Jack have hosted 3 former members of the SaintsFC team and will be bringing in a range of guests from all around football to round out the show.

This week we get to know Jack and a bit more about the show, in addition to discussing the Saints As One program and the decision made by Southampton FC players and first-team staff to defer a percentage of their wages, the impact that will have, and what it feels like to have a club that is making all the right decisions regarding their community and employees.

Be sure to follow Oh When the Saints and check out the show by following them on Twitter or visiting their show website where you can find the links to subscribe using whatever podcast app you wish.

When I did that, we weren’t anywhere near the indefinite postponing of the Premier League season, and so now, instead of talking about a match we might have won, Rob joins to me to discuss handballs, finances, furloughs, 1-v-1 defending and attacking, and more.

Also, Kyle Walker is an idiot.

The Southampton Women’s FC season might be over, and the records for the season may be expunged, but it doesn’t mean we have to throw out everything that happened this season. To help us relive some of the moments we don’t want to forget, Club Media Officer Hayley Newman stops by (virtually) to discuss her role at the club, plans for moving forward, some memorable moments on and off the pitch and she even answers some of your questions.

As always, get in touch with the club using the links below. The club and players rely on sponsorships to keep them on the field and their season would be impossible without them. You can also get in touch with Hayley for any media inquires. All links are below.

This week I’m joined by a voice familiar to many of the nearly 30,000 Saints fans that show up each and every home matchday to support the team. Jon Weeks (Twitter @jonweeks5 and Instagram @jonweeks) is the voice of Saints in the ground. As the PA announcer, he gets to be involved in the match while also still getting to support the team during the matches. It’s a different perspective than many of us have, and with the addition of his job on the radio and doing voiceover work, his voice helps give life to so many stories, and so many moments of the football season that we won’t forget… but not that Leicester City match. He wasn’t there for that one.

Things change quickly. Sometimes too quickly. We’ve gone from having matches as normal to having matches with no fans, to not having matches at all. We’re self-quarantining and social distancing, and it’s really left me with a weird feeling. I’m sitting in a classroom with no students. It doesn’t really work.

We do have an episode for you this week, though. I’m joined by Dave Champ (@awayfromhomesaint on Instagram) to discuss the response to the spread of the Coronavirus through our communities and the Premier League, and it impacts on us as fans and the clubs up and down the football pyramid. It’s a little topical, sure, but we do also discuss the refunds given by the club, the financial situation the club is in, the potential sale of the club and we try to find a silver lining in there somewhere.

Lastly, we talk about how we are spending our time and some books that might help keep you company during the layoff. I’m going for The Brothers Karamazov- (For Free Here), but there are several links below to Saints’ related books by authors who have been on the show, and, perhaps most importantly, who are fans of the team.

Some will say Saints dug in and played 10 v 13 on Saturday, and whether you think Graham Scott supports P*rtsmouth or not, or if you think the guys at Stockley Park are out to take back any love we had for VAR, the truth is, we have 9 more matches to get the points we need to be safe. It won’t be easy, but I’m not sure we would want it to be that way.

To discuss the loss to Newcastle and his new book Life of a Saint on this week’s episode is Micheal Kurn (also on episode 116). You may have seen him on matchday in the Southampton FC Fanzone or on Indonesian TV presenting Premier League matches from all over England or heard him on TalkSport, read his previous book Desire Dream Vision or just run into him around town. Even if you’ve never heard from him before, now is your chance. The new book is set for pre-sale on March 27 and will be out, launch party and all, May 9, 2020.

Things don’t always work out the way we’d like. Saints’ most recent visit to West Ham (and seemingly every time we’ve played them recently) is a case in point. But, sometimes things do go the right way. And when that happens, it’s cause for celebration.

Curt Supple had things mostly work out for him on his visit to see Saints over the Christmas period. He managed to get tickets away at Chelsea and at home vs. Crystal Palace, he saw us win at a top 4 side, and manage a point at home (we don’t get all that many, honestly). Once the vacation was over and he was back in the US, we chatted through his trip. That’s this week’s episode. I hope you enjoy it, and if you are a fan of the team and live abroad, feel free to take some advice from hoe Curt did it…. after all, I’ve only seen us lose at West Ham.

A special thanks for Curt for coming on the show and sharing his time. I enjoyed chatting everything from baseball to football to American football and look forward to doing it again in the future1 You can follow Curt on Twitter and Instagram, he’s @CurtSupple on both platforms.

Christian Candler (@candlerneuro on Twitter and @c.ndler on Instagram and his website candler.us) joins me yet again to chat about Saints’ win over Villa last weekend. Saints were dominant for most of the afternoon as Villa very much looked like a side focused on next week’s EFL Cup Final and not their current relegation battles.

It’s always a pleasure to chat with Christian, who's become a great friend over the last several years, and who has achieved so much in the world of both writing and sports coverage and now neuroscience. The conversation is especially sweet when there’s a win to discuss and Shane Long scores with his Smallbone. I hope you enjoy the show, sorry about the sickness in my voice… I tried.

Burnley came to St. Mary’s and brought with them the weather and a bit of misery as Saints’ fans fought the wind and rain to watch what amounted to a very forgettable match. Other than Danny Ings scoring again (to make it 18 in all comps this year and 15 in the PL), nothing good happened. Redmond was injured in training, Boufal went off early, we let in a goal directly from a corner and had all kinds of possession but no real chances. Burnley had a higher Xg than we did, and even Carl Anka will tell you that’s not supposed to happen.

Anyway, Dan was kind enough to join me to fill me in on all that he and his father have been up to recently. From doing the 92 to being interviewed by the Guardian and raising money for a couple of local charities along the way. It’s a pleasure and an honor to have Dan back on the show, and, as I state in the show, that episode- Ep. 75- with Steve and Dan, is one of my all-time favorite episodes.

If you’d like to follow their journey, you can. Links are below to their Twitter and Instagram handles, and there are also links to the charities they are raising money for and the just giving page where you can donate if you wish.

Saints failed to progress in the FA Cup and now fins themselves on their shortened winter break with just 1 competition to focus on over the rest of the season. The better team on the day lost according to Jose Mourinho (and just about everyone else). It was tough to take, and even tougher given the injury to JWP, and the Son penalty decision, but Jake Hughes, editor of St. Mary’s Musings, joins me to try to pull some positives out of the whole thing. You can get more from Jake the St. Mary’s Musings team by visiting https://stmarysmusings.sbnation.com/.

Enjoy the last few days of the Winter Break. Try to stay safe in the weather wherever you are and let us know what you think about the show (also, leave a review on iTunes or wherever you listen).

A trip to the league leaders, a return to Anfield for Danny Ings, and Kevin Freind out for a kickabout with 11 of his mates. It didn’t end the way we wanted it to, and the final scoreline didn’t necessarily tell the full story. The match showed a few things, though. The team has come a long way since the beginning of their time under Ralph. In recent weeks it’s given us results and helped propel us up the table. There were very few supporters who would have been expecting a result on Saturday, but I think a lot of people walked away (not alone) with the feeling that the team gave it everything. It’s not worth any points, but confidence in what Ralph wants in the coming weeks may prove to be worth a lot against lesser opposition.

Joining me to discuss the match and answer your questions this week is Dave Champ. Dave is a Southampton native who now lives in Ohio. Dave is on Instagram @therealdavechamp. You can get in touch with him there if you’d like. Special thanks to Dave for joining me this week and thanks again to all of you for listening!

When you head to a football ground you expect to hear certain sounds. The fans cheering, the chatter in the concourse, chants back and forth between sets of rival fans, etc. They let you know where you are when you are at a match. If you’ve ever been outside of St. Mary’s on a matchday over the last 4 years then you know the added sound that fills the air. Saints Brass welcomes fans to St. Mary’s each and every matchday and have become an integral part of the matchday culture at Saints.

It was a real pleasure to speak with Dan about the origins of Saints Brass, their duties and rituals on matchday, and the 1-1 against Spurs we were all treated to on Saturday afternoon. If you haven’t had the opportunity to hear Saints Brass, be sure to check them out at the next home match you attend.

If you’d like to hear them before then, you can give them a follow on Social Media. They are @saintsbrass on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook and you can also find them at saintsbrass.com.

Carl’s Interview- 5:10
Mike’s Interview- 49:10

This week’s show only has one intro (sorry about that last week), but two guests! I had the chance to meet Mike Smale of the MatchdayVlogs YouTube channel down in LA on Saturday afternoon, so we sat and chatted for a bit and recorded some stuff for both channels. Be sure to check out all of his stuff using the links below.

Then, Monday afternoon, Carl Anka used good old fashioned Skype to join me to discuss the match and what’s happening with Saints during the window.

There’s a lot here, and you may not get to it before Palace, but listen anyway. It’s worth it (in my opinion). Be sure to check out Carl at all the links below and let him know you appreciate his work.

Website,

Saints put in a wonderful performance at the King Power Stadium on Saturday. They won the match. Whatever Leicester were, they were second best. Ralph and company deserve all the credit for how things have gone since the last international break. It’s been a lot of fun to watch the last several weeks… and that hasn’t always been the case, at least for as long as I’ve been doing the podcast.

I’m a little long-winded this week to open the show, and I’m sorry. This episode, episode 157, marks the start of the 4th year of the show, something I am both extremely proud of and truly thankful for. Thank you to the guests, and the listeners and the Patrons and everyone else who has made this show possible over the last few years. That includes the newest Patron of the show, Chris Thomas. I’m a bad person and didn’t read it in the show this week. That’s not great from me, honestly. Next week you’ll hear his name.

Anyway, this week I’m joined by Jay Grant, the man behind @southamptonpage on Twitter and Instagram and the official partner page of the show. We chat about the result, answer some questions and more. Thanks as always for the support, and here’s to another year!

The FA Cup is a magical thing. It definitely has it’s problems, as does any competition, but the idea of giant-killing, a new or unique away day, or eventually playing at Wembley means there’s something special about it. This past weekend was the FA Cup third round. Saints progressed (thankfully), but they weren’t the only team in town hosting an FA Cup match.

Southampton Women’s FC hosted West Bromwich Albion Women on Sunday afternoon and progressed via a 3-1 win over higher-league opposition. After Monday’s draw, the team will play host to Crystal Palace Ladies on the weekend of January 26th. Crystal Palace, currently playing in the second tier of English Women’s football, will prove a tough test for Southampton. If you are around the area, please consider attending the match and supporting the team.

Before the team took to the field and beat WBA Women, two of their players, Lauren Clark and Erin Bloomfield, joined me to talk about their careers, their past and future playing careers in America, how their families came to support such crap teams and more. It was a pleasure to chat with them both and although I stumble over some questions, I think you’ll enjoy hearing from each of them.

You can follow Erin on Twitter. @ErinBloomfield9 and Lauren @laurenclark51. Lastly, there wouldn’t be a season at Southampton Women’s FC without the sponsors of the club and personnel. Lauren and Erin both have gracious sponsors which allow them to train, travel and compete in the team. Lauren is sponsored by Rob and Chloe Kerr and Erin is sponsored by One of a Kind Custom Design. If you are interested in sponsoring a player, member of the coaching staff or the team in general, please get in touch with the club secretary (email below). Do not tell them I sent you (they will charge you double

Saints have hit their best run of form in some time, collecting almost 2 points per match since the last week of November after managing less than .7 ppg up until then. There are lots of reasons for the turnaround. A solidified lineup and formation, a better understanding of the system, fitness levels and more. Tom Murray (@T214Murray on Twitter) joins me this week to discuss the matches against Chelsea and Palace, answer your questions and round out the year and the decade.

Tom is part of the team that provides commentary for blind and visually impaired fans at Saints matches through Alan March Sport. You can get more information on the service by visiting the links below. Please spread the word to those who could benefit from the service as Alan March Sport looks to make football accessible to more fans all across the UK.

First off, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. It’s the happiest time of the year or something. The truth is, it’s happier because Saints went to Villa Park and put three past a pretty terrible Villa. Jack Grealish scored a worldie that shouldn’t count because his socks are a disgrace.

Danny Ings scored a goal either side of Jack Stephens heading home a JWP corner and the game was never really in doubt, though the last 15 minutes or so saw Villa get as into the game as they ever did.

Saints left Birmingham well-deserved winners and leaped Villa in the standings, putting Saints out of the relegation zone ahead of the festive fixtures to come later this week. It was by far the best performance of the season. It had everything except a clean sheet for Saints fans to enjoy. Tougher tests lay ahead, but Saints can enjoy their Christmas outside the drop zone.

Joining me to discuss the match and look a bit ahead to Chelsea and Crystal Palace is Tom Mason. Tom was on the show just 364 days ago, when Saints were coming off a similar result heading into Christmas. This time he joins me after returning to the south coast from Villa Park. You can follow him on Twitter @tom_mason18 and on Instagram @tmaso19.

Though it’s far from my favorite holiday, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, from my family to my Saints FC family…. Alright… now it’s time for my wife’s work Christmas Party.

This week I’m joined by Tom Deacon Tom is a comedian, presenter (the pretty one), Saints’ Fan, Vlogger, and Virgin (according to the YouTube comments… I only report what I find). Tom was in the tunnel and on the pitch with Saints ahead of Saturday’s match against West Ham. Tom was tasked with hosting the live show before the match and revealing the Saints’ team ahead of the match. They gave him 12 men on the team sheet, drenched him with the sprinklers and yet nothing could prepare him for what Saints had in store for him over the 90 minutes that followed.

I’m running out of ways to accurately and uniquely describe lackluster, slow, stunted, toothless, and inconsistent performances by Saints. I guess we can say Saints were in the Christmas spirit early this week., gifting a goal to out of form striker Sebastian Haller, and giving Antonio exactly what he’s always wanted, an unphysical, short of pace defensive partnership playing a uniquely high line. The man had himself a great time.

At the end of the day, Saints dropped points. It leaves the team with another crucial match this coming weekend, and a lot of things to improve on between now and then.

Even with all of that, and everything else Tom will fill you in on during our chat, Tom was a real champ, and he is always a pleasure to talk to. I’m not sure either of us was really happy by the end of the recording, but I was smiling. So, I owe Tom a lot, for his time, but also for making the time we spent on Skype a lot of fun.

You can follow Tom on Twitter @TomHDeacon, on Instagram @tomdeaconcomedy, and on Facebook. You can also catch up with Tom and all of his upcoming shows on his website at tomdeacon.co.uk. Special thanks again to Tom for coming on again. I look forward to speaking with him again soon, about Saints and everything else.

Saints seem to enjoy staying predictable. The same scoreline, a similar storyline, with the same heroes and villains each and every time. Saints picked up 6 points, but it really should have been at least 7, and the failure to get that all-important 7th point sees the team stay in the drop-zone for another week, but still somehow closer to 12th than 19th (it was 11th before Arsenal dispatched West Ham on Monday evening).

Joining me this week is Arron Sanders of saintsworld.co.uk, a fan website dedicated to giving fans of Saints a voice and being a fun, family-friendly place to get your SaintsFC opinions. Arron does some of the media-editing around the place and joins me this week to talk Norwich, Newcastle and answer your questions.

This week I’m joined by Allen “I swear I’m not related to Angus” Gunn (@a_gunzy) from St. Mary’s Musings (@stmarysmusings). We have the pleasure of discussing Saints’ most recent home PL win, something that hasn’t happened in months, or at all this season. However, it’s not all roses. There are a number of issues that still stand out and need addressing, and there’s a big mid-week match against Norwich to think about as well. We chat, we analyze, we make mistakes and we proselytize. I just hope you enjoy it.

Be sure to visit stmarysmusings.sbnation.com to keep up to date with Saints through Allen and the rest of the team.

Also, I had the pleasure of joining the Total Saints Podcast this week. You can find them on Twitter or SoundCloud if you wish (and you should wish).

Support The Ugly Inside’s Movember Campaign at mobro.co/theuglyinside

Saints went to the Emirates to face a struggling Arsenal team on Saturday. Saints really only failed in two areas. They failed to finish. They failed to finish their chances, which would have put the game out of sight and they failed to finish the game.

The point taken from Arsenal feels like two dropped instead. A point away against a perennial top-6 contender should be seen as a good thing, but the win was there for Saints to take. To claim as their own, and instead, they blew it in the end.

Joining me to discuss the match this week is Rob Maddox. Rob is no stranger to the show and it was a pleasure to speak with him about Saints near win, even if we did it so soon after the match we can’t help but feel it was points lost.

You can follow Rob on Twitter (@jameslordprowse) and Instagram (@robmaddox_), and get in touch with the Ugly Inside’s Movember Campaign by clicking on the links.

Thanks for all of your support over the last 150 episodes (150 weeks) of the show. It’s been a wild ride- ok, mostly just steep drops, but hey- and I’m looking forward to more. Hopefully, you are too!

This has been a wonderful break, although it’s been of the International variety. England qualified for the Euros, Davo missed a penalty, Tadic suffered a last-minute heartache equalizer against Ukraine, though he scored his penalty, and the US redeemed itself against Canada. A lot has happened, but only glancing at scores and watching highlights has been a welcomed reprieve from what Saints have put me (and us) through the past few weeks. Now, I think I’m ready to get back to it. Dare I say I’m looking forward to Arsenal this coming weekend in the under-achieving, should be better than we are but can’t figure out a coherent system manager derby.

Over the break, I had the chance to speak once again with the Atheltic’s Carl Anka. With no specific match to talk about we had plenty of time to discuss some listener questions, in addition to the few I had lined up for Carl. One of the things I wanted to make sure and address was what, if any, changes had Carl noticed since arriving to cover the club. Since he’s new to the scene (sort of, I guess) and focused on the club for his work, how have moods and things shifted since the start? Who, if anyone, has been vocal or has had a somewhat noticeable change in demeanor?

After that, Carl and I run through your questions, have a laugh so we don’t cry and the hour+ we spent on Skype flew by. I hope you enjoy the show this week, and if you aren’t familiar with Carl’s work there are a few links below to get you caught up with what he’s been doing around for the Athletic recently. If Carl’s voice sounds familiar, he’s a regular panelist on the Totally Football Show and is one of the hosts of the Parts Unknown Wrestling Podcast. Links are below for those as well.

Saints failed, for the 4th time running, to avoid a loss at St.Mary’s. It wasn’t 0-9 this time, but in all honesty, it wasn’t that much better. After going down early Saints simply meandered, seemingly directionless and without much passion, towards halftime. Saints started with a back 3. The same back 3 that stood so firmly for so long against Manchester City just a week ago, but by allowing the early goal, and with Stuart Armstrong stuck in as a Right Wing-Back, it was all going wrong for Saints.

Halftime brought changes and the Boufal created Saints first shot just moments after coming on. He then provided the assist for Danny Ings. After that, Saints settled back into the all-to-familiar and slowly let the game slip away from them. Richarlison eventually gave the visitors the lead, and Everton secured their first away win of the season. The result has left Saints in the relegation zone and Saints fans particularly flummoxed.

That’s the context for this week’s show. Another poor performance, another relegation fight, another match where the players seem to be coasting, another season where the manager doesn’t seem to know his best side. It’s crushing to all of us, and it definitely makes doing things like this show harder.

This week, though, I’m joined by a familiar voice. Not to this show, but around the Saints FC community. He’s appeared on the Saints FC Podcast, The Ugly Inside, on this week’s Total Saints Podcast and here. He writes and talks he gardens and he’s all around just pretty great. We spend a lot of this week talking about his new film, The Name, written by William and shot in a single day in three locations in England. It’s a lot of fun and well worth 20 minutes of your time. William and his team have more coming and we discuss that as well. We discuss pretty much everything because I did not want to talk about the match, but we eventually did.

Saints’ schedule this past week is exactly what Halloween Nightmares are made of. Two trips to the defending champions in less than a week just after a 0-9 thrashing at the hands of the Leicester City. Seems like Saints were in for a beatdown of epic proportions. The midweek match came and went, with City moving on in a match that left much to be desired on most accounts. Saturday, however, was a different story. Solid, resilient, and efficient with their shots, Saints held City scoreless for 70 minutes. With Pep absolutely fuming to the point he was running sprints and warming up on the sidelines, City broke through to go level and eventually found a winner from Kyle Walker. Heartbreak for Saints, but there are a lot of different things we can (and do) say about the week. Joining me to do that are Jake Hughes (@JJHughes_) and Allen “I swear I’m not related to Angus” Gunn (@a_gunzy) from St. Mary’s Musings (@stmarysmusings). We talk shop, Saints, have a laugh and answer a couple of questions. If it’s possible, I’m perhaps too comfortable chatting with them, but oh well.

Be sure to visit stmarysmusings.sbnation.com to keep up to date with Saints through Jake, Allen and the rest of the team.

Getting beat by 9 goals is something I’ve struggled to recover from in Fifa, let alone in real life. There are times when you get knocked down, and you get up again, we all do. But, when you lay down and allow things to happen to you, that’s different. It’s harder to come back from. There is going to be shame and guilt and a ton of other things that are harder to shake off.

And, unfortunately, that’s about where we find ourselves this week. Perhaps the poorest performance I’ve ever witnessed. Abject, unacceptable, embarrassing, however, you want to say it. All of those emotions are in the show this week. But, the good news is that Chris Rann (@crstig on Twitter and writing @saintsworld.co.uk) and I were forced to wait a day to record due to some issues with the internet. But, we regrouped and came again, exactly what we hope Saints will do this week.

Chris and I run through the game and the general happenings around the club, answer your questions, laugh, cry and end up having a pretty good time. I hope you enjoy it.

One thing: I was (still am) pretty sick during this…also, very hungover. Go Astros.

Sorry.

A point on the road isn’t bad in the Premier League. Take a point against a team who just beat Manchester City, maybe a bit better. Saints were far from perfect, with VAR perhaps getting the MOTM award for us in the first half as the seemingly normal defensive frailties showed themselves again.

With both teams netting in the second half the sides split the points. But, was that a fair result? Freddie, the face of The Ugly Inside YouTube Channel, joins me to discuss the match and everything going on over at TUI Enterprises.

I’d be willing to say that the majority of Saints fans who are on Twitter, read about Saints online or listen to Saints related podcasts know, at least vaguely, who Carl Anka is. In the past two months, Carl has emerged as the newest, full-time professional writer covering Saints. Carl writes for theathletic.com and is exclusively writing about Southampton FC. The Athletic has compiled an elite group of journalists who cover all of the top flight and select teams in the Championship. They provide top-notch coverage and unique insight on all aspects of the club and sport. The opportunity to speak with Carl was an honor. And I took the opportunity to (hopefully) ask some questions that others have not, hopefully giving some of the same insight to Carl as Carl gives to the team (I likely failed, but anyway).

Our conversation covers everything from life in Southampton to reporting for The Athletic, working with editors, covering uncomfortable topics, video games and more. I had a blast, even though I was definitely showing the early signs of a sore throat and Skype was being Skype. Hopefully, it’s an enjoyable insightful episode…

If you want to get in touch with Carl or see more of him there are some links below. The Free Trial link is just that… the link titled “My Link” is a referral link from the Athletic. I am a paying subscriber and if you use that I get a kickback once you sign up. Both plans are offering 40% off for the year if you sign up annually. I should also say the Athletic covers a wide range of other sports and I’ve found the coverage all around to be great… I’m also really uncomfortable putting my own link in here, but whatever.

Website,

Sunday’s game against an in-form Chelsea was about as far from perfect as Saints have been under Ralph Hasenhuttl. In fact, it’s a reminder of what the team has looked like on the pitch under several previous managers. There’s no denying that we have plenty of things that need addressing, from the defense to a plan B. But, there’s also no way to look at the team and think Saints have not improved under Ralph at all. He’s far from a miracle worker, but there’s something about him that makes us (well, at least me) happy he’s here and somewhat happy with the job he’s doing. Sure, I’d love for us to be further along, but that’s not always realistic given the different constraints and things we are dealing with as a club.

Tom Murray (@T214Murray on Twitter) joins me this week to discuss the loss. He’s seen a fair few of them during his time as a commentator for Alan March Sport, as he's’ covered almost every home match since Saints introduced the Audio Description Commentary service last season. Tom as I discuss his duties, England vs Kosovo, I make a lot of bad jokes, we talk about Chelsea and answer your questions, all on this week’s show. Get in touch and let us know what you think!

We went from 4 goals against a pretty crap 11 men in an old stadium in front of a hostile crowd to 1 goal against 10 pretty good men in a stadium so fresh it still smells like new and was built for the acoustics but turns out the atmosphere wasn’t all that great… that was what Saints have been up to since the last episode. It’s been quite a ride, to say the least, and several fans have been along for it.

One of those fans is Luke Millard and he joins me this week to discuss the trip to Fratton Park and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the decisions, the chances, the euphoria and the frustration that so many of us experience in one way or another each week. You can find Luke on Instagram @millard505.

Special thanks to Luke for taking so much of his time to share with me (and you), and thank you for taking the time to listen! I hope you enjoy it!

Let’s just say it, Friday night wasn’t great. Team selection, execution, performance, in the first half especially, was just plain bad. We’ve been living on the edge for some time, and, of all teams, Bournemouth were the ones to make us pay. Now, though, our focus turns to THE derby. P*mpey away on Tuesday night in the 3rd round of the EFL/Carabao Cup. The strongest team is a must (at least to us) and Ralph has stated he and the players are aware of the significance of the match.

Joining me to discuss the loss to the Cherries and preview tonight’s clash with P*rtsmouth, is the man who ran @WeAreSouthampton (on Instagram) for so many years. Matt does the logo for the show and has graciously given me advice on everything from Photoshop (he’s very kind) to show structure and everything else. I celebrated episode 100 by having him on, and it’s been great to catch up with him for episode 141.

If you’d like to contact Matt on Twitter, you can do it @wesouthampton. Matt is a great guy and, as you’ll hear in the intro, I can’t thank him enough for lending me his expertise on more than one occasion. I hope you enjoy the chat.

Warning: the only thing longer than this episode is the time it takes for Vestergaard to turn and try to cover a right-winger bursting down the channel… I hope you enjoy it.

Saints secured their third successive away win (and our 3rd league match with one team ending the match with only 10 players on the pitch), away at Bramall Lane on Saturday. The game had it all. It was open, entertaining, and almost nobody would have thought it would finish with only a single goal. Djenepo went from wayward left wing-back to Malian Messi in the space of 1 change of formation, and gave us all a moment we won’t forget when he gave a kid in the crowd his shirt after the match, producing one of the most passionate fist shakes since my mom caught my brother and I blowing up lemons with firecrackers (like 2 years ago).

The in-game management from Hasenhuttl was brilliant. The starting lineup, maybe not so much. Trying to put the game in perspective was difficult for me. I was so enthralled with the contest that I was afraid I missed some critical points of the match. Luckily, I had Lucy Highnett on the show to join me. Lucy lives in Sheffield and was at Bramall Lane to take in the match.

Lucy (@lucyhighnett on Twitter) is a panel member on the Total Saints Podcast (@totalsaintspod on Twitter), and you can more of her and the guys by subscribing on iTunes, Soundcloud, or wherever you listen. Special thanks to Lucy as always. Truly a pleasure to chat again.

The international break might be in full effect, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t any club football being played. The FA Women’s Super League kicked off this weekend with a number of derbies spread around the country, some being played in the men’s stadiums and almost all drawing big crowds. Building on the back of the World Cup this past summer, the FAWSL is looking to keep the interest in the sport growing, and the weekend wasn’t a bad start.

The interest in the Women’s game doesn’t stop at the top tier. The Southampton Women’s Football Club has noticed the swell in support as well. As Southampton’s longest-running women’s club, they’re happy to see people come out and support them as they battle for promotion this season against, among others, the women of the Southampton Football Club.

This week I’m lucky to be joined by two members of the team. Hayley Newman is the media manager for Soton Women’ and Philippa Holden in a midfielder for the club who’s rise to the first team started more than 4 years ago. Hayley, Philippa and I all discuss the start of the season, matchday routines, take a couple of listener questions and throw around some light-hearted jokes about postcodes and such. Hayley and Philippa were both lovely to speak with and I hope you enjoy the episode.

Philippa is still looking for a sponsor for the season. You can get in touch with her @philippaholden on Twitter, or email the club secretary below. Hayley doesn’t need sponsorship, but your support is always welcome. You can follow her on Twitter @NewmanHay. More links for the club are below.

The first international break has arrived. The first 4 matches done. The opening home matches were never going to be easy. With both the reigning European Champions and, well, a team that used to be really good, a point or two would have accepted by most of the fan-base. After a disappointing opening day, doubt may have crept into the minds of some, but with 4 points through 4 matches entering the break, having advanced in the Carabao Cup, and having a couple of weeks to get guys healthy, overall things are not looking too bad. Could they be better? Absolutely. But we seem to be moving in the right direction.

The club sent a number of players out on loan just before the close of the European window, but I didn’t talk about that with this week’s guest, Rob Maddox. Rob joins the show again having arrived back on the UK just in time to attend the Fulham match, try to shake the jet lag, and them discuss the United match with me. It’s always a pleasure to catch up with Rob and get his feelings on Saints and more. You can follow Rob on Twitter @jameslordprowse and o Instagram @RobMaddox_ (I can’t stress enough how much I enjoy Rob’s photography. It’s not Saints related but it’s totally worth a follow if you just need to see some beautiful images… and not of models or anything like that. If you want to see that just look at yourself in the mirror because you are beautiful, and you need to believe that).

Anyway, Rob is a great guest, as always. Give him a follow and let us know what you think of the episode. Don’t miss the newsletter out next Friday. Be sure to subscribe below.

First clean sheet of the season. First goal for Djenepo. A debut for Danso. A back post tap in for Redmond. An assist for Boufal and a win for Hasenhuttl.

Saints made difficult work against 10 man Brighton on Saturday. But, at the end of the day, a win is a win and 3 points on the road is nothing to sneeze at. Joining me to discuss the match, the arrival of the new opposition video analyst/assistant coach, Forster’s return to Celtic and more, is Ben Hernandez-Stroud of the Archers Road End. Ben is on Twitter @archersroadend as well as on Instagram and Facebook. Ben is currently taking a break from writing the blog, but when he comes back, you’ll want to make sure you are in touch with the blog. Until then, Twitter will have to suffice.

Saints fell to Liverpool at St. Mary’s over the weekend, a result that will come as a shock to absolutely no one in the football world. It leaves Saints with no points and only one goal scored through two Premier League matches, with two more fixtures coming before the first international break of the season. Saints, however, did play well for large parts of the match, dictating the game for long periods, and looking on par with Liverpool (even if they weren’t at their best). The game featured a lot of missed chances by both sides and Saints eventually walked away with positives to build on but no share of the points.

Joining me this week to discuss the match and some new developments in coverage is Jay from the Southampton Page. The Southampton Page is the official partner of the show and just launched its YouTube Channel earlier this week. The first Matchday Experience will be up late on Saturday night after the Brighton match, but you can subscribe right now to make sure you don’t miss it (plus there’s an intro video there for you already).

As always, thanks to Jay for all the support and for joining the show once again! And, thank you for listening! Your support is most important and it truly means a lot!

The best laid plans…

After a pre-season that couldn’t have gone any better in many respects. The style of football developed greatly, the team seemed to jell. Players worked their way into and out of the team (Hi Charlie, Mario… and wherever you are Guido). The training trips, the warm weather, the pre-season matches, everything seemed to point towards Saints being better than they showed on Saturday. But, Saints are also much the same team (in terms of squad composition) as they were last year, and Saturday’s performance at Burnley showed it.

Luke Osman joins me this week to discuss the disappointing start to the season, as well as look at some changes happening around Read Southampton. We also answer some of your questions (thanks for sending them in) and more.

If you don’t do so already, give Luke and Read Southampton a follow on Twitter, or send him an email if you are looking to potentially write for Read Southampton.

The 2019/2020 season is almost here. Saints have had their first pre-season under Ralph Hasenhuttl, they’ve brought in a few attacking options, they’ve looked, for the most part, good during pre-season. But, at the time of recording (July 29, 30, and August 1), there were no additions in defense, which is something several of this week’s guests key in on.

For this episode, I’m joined by 4 guests, Lucy Highnett, Jake Hughes, Bob Brown, and Luke Osman. We run through a range of questions from the assessment of pre-season and the transfer window to predictions for a number of categories for the coming season. Be sure to give this week’s guests a follow and give their various projects a follow and/or listen when you get the chance. Also, let us know what you think of the episode and what your predictions are for the coming season.

When life comes at you fast, you call on your friends. That’s what I did this week. My plans for Ep. 133 fell apart late Sunday, but a quick message to the Group Chat and Jay(@CXEAdams), who runs the @southamptonpage, the official partner of the show, was ready to go. Fast forward to Monday morning and away we went.

We quickly-ish recap some major moments of the preseason and then dive into listener questions- so many questions, thank you! We get to as many as we can and really enjoy ourselves. Probably too much, honestly. Top scorer predictions, league predictions, who should leave, who should stay, who is about as much use as a chocolate teapot? Listen and find out our thoughts and be sure to let us know yours. Thanks for everything, you are all wonderful.

This week Saints are off to China and Ireland to continue their preseason, but while the boys are away, the ladies will play… and they’ll play Spurs. If you are unaware, the Southampton Women’s Football Club is also preparing for their season and they are ramping things up by playing Spurs of the Women’s Super League this coming Sunday. There is more information about the match on all the Southampton Women’s FC social media channels, so be sure to check it out and get down to the ground to see just how good Southampton Women’s FC is. Beautiful football, (hopefully) beautiful weather and a good day out for you and the family.

This week on the show I had the chance to chat with Aaron Smith and Lee Hurrell (@westspice and @LHfutebol) about their new roles at the team, some of the changes they’ve made since coming in, how the team is kicking on and what they hope to achieve this year. It’s always a pleasure to be able to chat with representatives from the club and get an idea of how things are going, and I am extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to do so. I hope you enjoy the show.

If you are interested in getting involved with the Southampton Women’s Football Club, the links below will help you get started. Those interested in sponsoring a member of the squad or advertising in general, please contact Amanda Boroughs the club secretary directly at secretary@southamptonwfc.co.uk.

Website,

Pre-season match #1 is done. A 1-1 draw in Austria against a team that is at the end of the pre-season and ready to play competitive football. I will not say I am enjoyed watching the match, but that’s because I couldn’t due to legal restrictions and rights and all of that. No big deal, though. From the highlights, it looked like the guys were running and played well enough, created some good chances, made a few mistakes and it’s all to be expected. Live, learn and move on.

This week has been a roller coaster so far. Been to LA and back on Sunday to view a live podcast with my very best Arsenal Friend Josh. Got back after 11:00pm Sunday evening and then woke up ready to record this episode, only to have my dad call me in a semi-emergency, which lead to he and I spending the next 5 or so hours at the hospital. Eventually, we got him home and settled and Aydin (Twitter- @aydin_osman96 and Instagram- @aydinosman96) was waiting on the other end of a Skype call to do the episode. Now, here it is… we have a lot to discuss, from the friendly to your questions and even some social media type stuff.

As always, I hope you enjoy the show.

This week was basically the opposite of last week. The boys are back, but there isn’t really all that much going on with the club.

What a fantastic start to the week. Before I was even awake on Monday morning, Saints had taken care of some serious business in the transfer market, bringing in Che Adams from Birmingham and shipping Matt Targett off to Aston Villa. Not long after that, Danny Ings was officially announced as a Saint after his loan spell from LFC ended.

That makes two signings under Hasenhuttl and two attacking options added to the team. It’s also the first major departure of Ralph’s tenure. Targett played a significant role last season when Bertrand was out, but was going to be short of the first team football he craves and was coveted by several clubs according to rumors on the internet (where everything is true).

Joining my this week to discuss all the movement, on and off the pitch, is Jay of @southamptonpage (Instagram). From Adams to Targett to the backroom shuffle, and social media mishaps, we break down what’s going on at Saints. If you don’t follow the @southamptonpage (Twitter), go do that. We’ll be back with a newsletter on Friday.

Note- this week's episode contains language I would not use around my grandmother or my children. If you are listening with kids or aloud at work, I'd recommend waiting until you are alone or putting some headphones on... ps. It's totally worth it.

Glen de la Cour had a 5 year plan. It didn’t involve industrialization or collectivization. Or restructuring of the board or improvements to the training facilities. It was, mostly, document what was happening as Saints aimed to get back to the Premier League.

Five years came and went, Saints got back to the Premier League, we sold players to Liverpool, lost managers, qualified for Europe, and Glen simply kept writing. We fell from Europe, more players left the club, and still, made some shocking moves at the top of the food chain, and still Glen kept writing. It’s been 10 full seasons, over 645 posts, since Glen started League One Minus 10. The play on the field hasn’t always been pretty, but Glen has been giving it to readers straight since the day he started. The blog is full of opinion, insight, curse words and reactions, and can be counted on to deliver an honest and open opinion of what’s happening on the pitch through the eyes of a man who has been attending matches with his father (and now his father and son) since 1975.

If you don’t follow Glen on Twitter you can do that @L1Minus10, and please be sure to add League One Minus 10 to your reading list. You won’t regret it. Special thanks to Glen for coming on the show this week to discuss 10 years of writing the blog, some team news, and answer some listener questions.

Look at this!!!- If you have a special story about spending time with your father or father figure around football (especially Saints), and would like to share it with me for next week's episode, please do! You can record it right on your phone and email it to me, or we can get on Skype and do it if that's easier for you. It's just way to recognize some of the ways sports have helped some of us come together (or how your dad, uncle or whoever, got you into supporting the only team on the south coast that really matters). Anyway, the email your clips to southamtpondellivery@gmail.com or just get in touch however you think is easiest, there is a contact form on the website that gets my attention as well. Thanks- Matt

The Saints News and Views Twitter account can always be counted on to deliver some good conversation. A debate is always likely, news is always there, and views are often expressed. When I first spoke with Jack a almost two years ago (and again just before Christmas of 2017), it was a whirlwind of learning, at a time when Saints were really struggling to produce on and off the pitch.

This time, the season is over, and Jack and I focus first on running the accounts and podcasts during those tough times on the pitch, and how he approaches the growing support for the page and some of the other things that come with it. From there we move to the Financial Times article that came out this week regarding Gao and investment and such, and move on finally to transfers and your questions.

If you don’t already follow Saints News and Views you should, they are @SaintsfcViews on Twitter and I promise you will be in for a good time when you do!

This was my first official day of summer vacation and I can’t think of a better way to start it off. Special thanks to Jack for coming on (especially with his work schedule) and thanks again to all of you for listening!

*Quick note- I stated in the intro that Maya Yoshida would be playing in the Copa America. That isn't true. Sorry.

This week Christian Candler joins me to bring in the summer. We discuss everything from Charlie Austin in a LFC uniform to the Saints FC players out on international duty this summer. We also talk Women’s World Cup, transfer rumors, Saints pre-season tour and more.

It’s a bit more casual than normal, and that’s because I’m away this week grading exams for AP World History. It’s pretty great.

It’s a special week this week. Generally at the end of the season I take the chance to speak with fans from around the world about the season and get their thoughts. This year, since we’ve added patreon.com/sfcdellivery to the mix, I thought it would be nice to get to hear from some of the Patrons and get their thoughts. Don’t worry if you are not a Patron, though. We’re doing it again next week and if you’d like to be on the show, just get in touch and I’ll send you the link to book your time! I’m looking forward to hearing from you!

Also, special thanks to the Patrons. None of this happens without you.

The 2018/2019 Premier League season is over. A 16th place finish, some wins against the top 6, 29 points dropped from winning positions (if my counting is correct), a new coach, a load of players out on loan, 2 executive openings, and a second place trophy for LFC.

Was it successful? I’m not sure I’d call it that, but it’s definitely on something to build on. This week I’m joined Jay Grant (@fataljaay), who owns the partner account to the show, @southamptonpage. Because he was at the match on Sunday, and Sunday was also Mother’s Day here in the US, we recorded on Monday morning, shortly after the club announced the new main sponsorship deal with LD Sports (so that’s fun). We also discuss Saints’ 1-1 draw with Huddersfield on the final day of the season, the looming transfer window and more.

Last year I was blessed to be able to travel across the Atlantic Ocean (and the continental United States) and attend a match. Unfortunately, it was West Ham away. A 3-0 defeat, a poor showing, and a real problem when you consider the path to safety. That day I spent a lot of time (like almost 12 hours) with Freddie from The Ugly Inside. He made sure I got to the match, helped on the tube, in the pub and just made the whole thing work. After the match, we sat and recorded a podcast celebrating 30 years of the The Ugly Inside (You can find that episode here, if you are interested). And, after speaking over the course of the season, we decided to speak again after West Ham this year… because it couldn’t possibly get any worse.... Yeah.

So, that is where we pick up this week. Freddie joins me to discuss the loss away at West Ham, answer some listener questions and look ahead to who could stay and who we probably won’t see around Staplewood next year. If you don’t already follow The Ugly Inside use the links below to get in touch with all of the fantastic work they do.

Jake Hughes is a lot of fun to talk to. He is super honest, informed, hilarious, and this week we went deep. Jake and I spent the better part of two hours on Skype catching up on life, Saints, safety, writing and podcasting, home ownership, parenthood and more.

We discuss Jake’s MMA freelance writing, as well as his Saints’ website St. Mary’s Musings, which you can also follow on Twitter at @StMarysMusings. If you’d like to follow Jake himself, he’s @JJHughes_. As I said previously, he’s fantastic, the site is fantastic, and you should definitely follow along if you are not already.

In more pressing (and impressive) news, Franny Benali is making us all look like we’re lazy. He’s doing 7 Iron Man Triathlons in 7 days. He’s doing it to raise money for Cancer Research. You can support him. Visit https://www.ironfran.co.uk/ to learn more, or text FRAN5 or FRAN10 to 70200 to donate 5 or 10 pounds. T&Cs apply, be sure to check the website for more details.

I’m gone this week. We’re camping and it’s going to be great. I tried to set a few things up so we’d have a normal-ish length episode for the week, but a couple of things fell through and only one of them actually got done. That one thing was my conversation with Aydin Osman (@Aydin_Osman96 on Twitter) about his dissertation work on ticket pricing and the impact it has on fans and engagement. So, with Saints releasing their season ticket prices for the upcoming 2019/2020 season it felt like a good conversation to have. Hopefully you enjoy it. No matter what, it’s better than a mosquito bite in the eye (or anywhere, I guess).

We’ll be back later this week with a Special Dellivery for Patreon supporters after the team play Watford on Tuesday. If you’d like to get that and the rest of the benefits and support the show, you can do that by visiting patreon.com/sfcdellivery.

Inviting Wolves into your home is always risky... Just writing that brings back memories of news stories from my childhood, where ordinary people somehow decided having a Tiger or a Lion or a Wolf as a pet. Not to mention Little Red Riding Hood or any of the other fairy tales where Wolves represented danger or a threat. But, if I had to pick a fairy tale equivalent for last weekend’s match, it would have to be the Three Little Pigs. Wolves huffed and puffed, but could not blow the house down, as Saints defended well, stood up to the test, and came out 3-1 winners over the newly promoted, top half side.

Whether they were distracted or not, the performance and the result were, dare I say, what we’ve come to expect. An organized, aggressive performance, with a lot of work done without the ball, a strong performance from an academy product, a Shane Long goal, and an enthusiastic manager who celebrated every goal with us. It’s a beautiful thing. As is seeing us go 8 points clear of the drop zone.

Joining me to discuss the match and his new YouTube Channel is Mike Smale. His new project is MatchDaylogs, and I had a great time discussing how he got started, what changes it’s made to his matchday experience and how he has made sure doing the vlog doesn’t get in the way of supporting the team, enjoying the match, or teaching your kids proper fan/referee interaction.

You can get in touch and follow along on Mike’s journey on all of the major social media channels. You’ll be in for a treat, with high production value, entertaining episodes and a real show of the emotion that goes with each and every Saints’ match.

Website,

Saints vs Liverpool.

We are two years removed from the EFL Cup run that saw us deny Klopp’s LFC even one goal during the 2016/2017 season. I remember the tense night, under the lights, when, after missing several half chances, and after Forster clawed the ball off the line to keep the score at 1-0 to Saints, Sims broke from an LFC corner and Shane Long made himself available for a pass to finish off Liverpool and send Saints through to Wembley. There was, at that moment, no better feeling. In a season of dour football, that was the light, the spark of joy in an otherwise miserable year.

Unfortunately, this week didn’t pan out that way. Although the match was played at high intensity, and it was a respectable and entertaining watch for the neutral, ultimately Saints failed to take anything away from the match other than, perhaps, the belief that they can indeed play their game against almost anyone. Sure, the switch to a back five was defensive in a way, but there’s believing in your system and then there’s being naive. Saints chose a formation that was defensively solid and yet gave themselves width to attack Liverpool. Overall, I enjoyed the heck out of it.

What I enjoyed more than that, though, was my conversation with Lucy Highnett (@lucyhighnett). Lucy brings the perfect blend of fan of the team and student of the game. I always learn something when I speak with her for an episode and even this time, off record, she clarified some of the differences in the US and UK higher education system. But, for the show, over Skype, we cover the LFC match, go on some tangents, and finish by answering some of your questions- only some because there were a lot and I was booked to be a guest on the In That Number Podcast and I was already keeping them waiting… but, don’t worry, I’ll answer a few more in this week’s newsletter, which you can sign up for here. I hope you enjoy the show and be sure to follow Lucy, as she drops knowledge, hot takes, and words of wisdom from time to time.

Congratulations to Ordinary Mike who won a copy of “Desire Dream Vision.” Get in contact with me and I’ll send a copy. Sorry if you didn’t win, but you can purchase a copy of the book at desiredreamvision.com

Inspiration comes from all around us. It’s different for each of us. It could be nature, a harrowing comeback late in a game, or a personal story of struggle. Inspiration sometimes it finds us when we least expect it, or when we need it most. People often spend time trying to find inspiration, and some go as far as taking time to try and inspire others. And that is where we find Michael Kurn.

Michael Kurn is a motivational speaker, Premier League TV presenter, Mint Yard gym goer, England Hockey announcer, and, now, a published author. His book Desire, Dream, Vision, is out now and available at desiredreamvision.com. I’ve been lucky enough to get to know him over the past 18 months, and am fortunate to have him join the podcast for the second time this week. Plus, as an added bonus, we’re giving a copy of the book away this week! All you have to do is head over to one of our social media channels and like the episode post and make sure you are following Michael Kurn and you’ll be entered for a chance to win. If you’d like an extra chance, be sure you are subscribed to the show newsletter and we’ll give you an extra shot at getting your hands on a a free copy of the book.

You can get in touch with Michael using the links below, and if you are outside the UK, be sure to tune in to FanZone and send him some love when he’s hosting!

Quick note- the call quality this week isn’t great. I’m not sure why it is, and I’m not necessarily happy about it, but it’s nothing Chris or I did, it just is. So, I’ll likely spend too much time trying to figure out why it was so bad, but I hope you enjoy it. I’ll do better because you, and guests like Chris, deserve it. Sorry

The international break means no top-flight football for us to enjoy, but it doesn’t mean football itself has stopped. In addition to having the international action, of which Southampton sent several players out to take part, lower league and non-league matches were in full swing.

Given that, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to chat with Chris Tuck, who runs the Non-League Programmes and the Saints Programmes accounts on Twitter. It something fairly foreign to me. I used to save a lot of stuff, but I never really collected much of anything, and I still don’t. So, to hear what inspires Chris to collect, capture, and share his programmes and the programmes sent in by other fans is truly amazing.

Additionally, Chris is attempting to do some charity work around programmes and teaching English, so if you or anyone you know might be interested in that, please get in contact with him @NonLgeProgs or @SaintsProgs. You can also check out all the programs by visiting Chris’ Filckr.

It’s always a pleasure to be able to meet other Saints fans and record an episode face to face. I love almost every aspect of doing the podcast but the people are the best part, and getting to see and meet people who love the same things I do really sets the experience apart.

Dave Lee lives in Bakersfield, CA and is about the closest thing to Saints supporting neighbor I have. We were both looking forward to meeting, watching a match and recording an episode this weekend, but because of the FA Cup, it wasn’t in the cards. So, we sat down in the press room and had a chat… and went out for beers afterwards. Dave is truly a good friend, a fantastic podcaster, and hugh help and influence to me. I’m truly inspired by him and the work he and his family put into their shows and projects. You can follow Dave on Twitter and Instagram. The links are below.

Spurs stole our song, got (most of) the calls from our most recent enemy referee, and controlled the first half. But, we took all three points in a dramatic and impressive second half display. We did it with no striker on the pitch, relying on a teenage right back to crash the back post and poke home the equalizer before JWP beat the World Cup winning goalkeeper from a dead ball.

It was truly a rollercoaster of emotions, but it was so nice to finish on a high. So often we’ve conceded late and lost some of the momentum or (more importantly after 38 weeks) the points. This week, though, we turned it around and we now walk into the three week break with our heads held high.

Joining me to breakdown the match, JWP’s right foot, Josh Sims face, and Hasenhuttl’s adjustments is Rob Maddox. Rob is a photographer, sport enthusiast, and Saints fan from Bath. In addition to analyzing the match, we discuss how Rob became a fan of the team, his photography process, some memorable moments from his time supporting Saints and more.

_________________________________________________________

All things considered, this week was a good week. Saints took three points from Fulham, pulled themselves out of the drop zone, and pushed one of the hottest teams in the league to the brink away from home, and were unlucky not to come away with at least a point. The goals, the grit, a bit of glamour, and some questionable refereeing, and you basically have the week in a nutshell.

Joining me this week to talk about his coaching journey, his love of Saints, and the match against United (we did the Fulham match during the week for Patreon members) is Jody Rovers. Jody is the director of coaches at Matt Le Tissier Natural Coaching (Web, Twitter) as well as his newest coaching venture, Jody Rivers Coaching. Jody’s passion for youth and the sport of football are undeniable, and I really enjoyed getting to hear his perspective on football, coaching, and the turnaround in the team since Hasenhuttl took over.

I hope you enjoy the episode and give Jody a follow on Twitter @riversjodycoach.

Arsenal is a big match for me. My son and my best friend both support the Gunners. We’ve given them fits in the past, and took three points off them earlier this season. Sunday didn’t go that way, and after going 2-0 down early, I decided 6:22am was the appropriate time to open up my good friend Mr. Guinness…fast forward, through the second half and past the Sunday school lesson I assisted with, by the podcast recording and homework, and you wind up with me taking NyQuil and attempting to edit. There’s a few minutes in the middle of the episode I don’t remember editing, so it should be a surprise to everyone.

What wasn’t a surprise, though, was my guest, Christan Candler (on Twitter @candlerneuro and his writing is available at candler.us). Christian was, as always, level-headed and calm in his approach to the match, and it was exactly what was needed as we tried to deal with the Arsenal result (and him having to deal with me).

We discuss everything from the Arsenal result to the board’s spending in recent windows, the role of social media, #PuelOut, your questions and more.

We’ll be back with a Patreon only episode after Fulham and a free Newsletter will be in your email inbox on Friday morning, all you have to do is sign up).

The Premier League took a break this weekend while the fifth round of the FA Cup took place. Due to Saints exit from the competition against Derby County in the third round, Saints spent a week training in Tenerife where, by all accounts, they worked hard everywhere from the training pitch to the film room to the gym. I, and I’m sure almost everyone reading this, hope that Saints can take a good week of training into, yet another, important run of fixture, with three matches coming in the space of seven days beginning with Arsenal away on Sunday.

With that all said, this week I caught up with Tom Murray (on Twitter @T214Murray), who is part of the team of commentators that provide audio commentary for blind and partially sighted fans at all Southampton home matches. Tom and the rest of the team are all trained volunteers who do each game under the guidance and planning of Alan March Sport (Twitter) who provide a range of similar services across many sporting grounds in the UK.

Tom, who is a Southampton fan, discuss getting involved with the program, how he goes about his work, discuss some memorable moments, answer some listener questions and more. It was truly a pleasure to speak with someone who was as passionate about Saints and his volunteer work as Tom. If you haven’t connected with him yet I would encourage you to do so!

If you or someone you know are interested in the audio description service provided by Alan March Sport for Saints FC home matches, please visit the website HERE and reserve your audio receiver for the next home fixture.

*News: The show has a new website as a result of the support of the Patrons at patreon.com/sfcdellivery. Their support helped launch southamptondellivery.com, where you can find past and present episodes of the show, sign up for the weekly email newsletter- with one featured article per week, guest and show updates and more, delivered to your email inbox once a week. I’m really excited about both of these additions to the show, and hope you both enjoy them and get some value out of using them. Let me know what you think, please… okay, now for the rest of the stuff...

Question: What do you get when you play a relegation rival in front of your home crowd, have ⅔’s of the possession, and have more attempts on target than the other team has total attempts, and score in the first minute of stoppage time?

Answer: A statistically dominant, yet unconvincing, performance… oh, and 0 points.

Saints failed to impress at the weekend, looking bereft of ideas and lacking creativity and spark at St. Mary’s on Saturday. The lackluster performance was made worse by a late giveaway, followed by a poor headed clearance and a goalmouth scramble, that saw Saints drop 3 points at home to Cardiff, who did the double AND jumped Saints in the table. Saints now sit in the relegation zone on goal difference, but only 3 points from 13th… it’s not all bad, but it’s far from good, and the rest of the season is going to be wild.

Joining me to talk about the match, his podcast, take listener questions and more, is Kurt Zottl. Kurt is on Twitter @kurtzottl, and his podcast is on Twitter and Instagram @thebsoshow.

Hopefully the show leaves you feeling better than the ending of the match.

Saints had a busy week (incoming transfers on deadline day aside) this week with the team hosting Crystal Palace midweek before traveling to Burnley for a 3:00pm GMT kickoff on Saturday. Saints entered the week even on points with both teams, and although the team drew both games, in the end the results were probably fair, all things considered. The team took two points from the matches, inching away from the relegation zone, remaining unbeaten in 2019, and somehow fans are still a little worried and found time to criticize some of the players, mainly Jack Stephens for a handball late on Saturday.

All of that takes center stage on this week’s show when I spoke with Dan Adam, a Saints’ fan living in Malaysia (on Twitter @TwentyTwoRole and owner/admin of @PremWorldWide on Instagram).Given the time difference, we recorded the episode while about 60% of you were sleeping (That’s you, UK listeners), and I put together the rest of it before the “big game” here in the US so I could spend some time with my family, who really love American Football. Until the late touchdown I had more beers than there were points scored, and my attempt to continue the streak has made this writing a tad bit more difficult than normal.

Anyway, if you don’t follow Prem Worldwide, you should. Dan does a great job and it’s a lot of fun to interact with the account and see some of the stuff he posts. Here→https://www.instagram.com/premworldwide/

Enjoy the show, and thanks as always for taking the time to listen!

Saints were out of action this week but there was still plenty to talk about. We covered a bit of the transfer window with Dan from Prem Worldwide on Instagram (available to $5.00/month listeners on the Patreon page) and it was the perfect time for me to chat with Issy Foster of the Southampton Women’s Football Club. Issy is new to the club this season and it was nice to get a fresh perspective from someone new to both the south coast and the club. We discussed her move, playing in the US, the state of women’s football in the US and UK and more.

If you’d like to help sponsor the football club, you can do so by visiting their website and contacting the club secretary. Links are below. Also, you can follow Issy on Twitter @IssyFoster93.

I also spoke with Matt Neuhausen, a Florida based Saints’ fan about his recent trip to Southampton. He has a great girlfriend who booked the tickets, and who also let him talk to me shortly after they got back. We spoke about the trip and getting to finally see the club he’s supported for so long in person.

A busy week for the club, a disappointing result midweek against Derby County, but a valiant performance against Everton on the weekend means Saints picked up back-to-back Premier League wins, moved a bit up the tablet and played an attractive brand of football on top of it all.

Joining me this week to discuss the matches, their dive into the Saints’ Podcasting pond and more, are the hosts of the In That Number Podcast, Ray and Kevin. They are both lifelong Saints supporters and friends, and it was fantastic to chat with them over the course of a few hours.

The Southampton Page is the longtime partner of the show. Jamie, who runs the page on Instagram and oversees the Twitter account, though he has some help from some wonderful guys on Twitter, has been a fantastic help to me over the time I’ve done the show. From setting me up with guests such as Antti Niemi and Tom Deacon, to helping get the show in front of the page’s 20,000 Instagram followers, I can’t really explain how much of a help he has been.

This week, Jamie joins me to discuss the match against Leicester City… last time Jamie was on, we also played Leicester City. This week, a member of the team was shown a red card. Last time Jamie was on, a player on the team was shown a red card… however, this time, the result was different (thank goodness).

The performance of the team this week was admirable to say the least. The organization, the effort, the refusal to fold under the pressure of playing with 10 men for so much of the match. It really was an extremely impressive performance, and one that sees the team climb out of the relegation zone. From here, the team hosts Derby on Wednesday night, about which manager Ralph Hasenhuttl has claimed he intends to play a stronger side than what some originally thought.

The festival fixtures are truly over, the initial matches of the FA Cup 3rd played, and, for the most part, normal day-to-day, week-to-week schedules are back for the foreseeable future…just ignore that replay at home to Frank Lampard’s Derby County.

Saints came through the festival fixtures with a mixed results, but I, and I’m sure many other fans as well, are feeling pretty good about the direction things are going. The manager has a plan, and I actually agree with that plan. It’s simple, but ultimately that’s all it has taken. The youth are around the squad, the players are working hard during matches, and the club seem intent on thinning the squad and seeing where they stand in the transfer market.

This week I’m joined by Aydin Osman (Twitter- @Aydin_Osman96, Instagram- @aydinosman96) of the Southampton Page (links- Twitter, Instagram and Facebook). We discuss the draw at the two draws, the debuts of academy products, and the departure of Steven Davis, which didn’t actually happen until after we were done recording… which was pretty great.

Chris Macchi’s story isn’t something he makes a lot of. But, from the outside, it’s a story of someone who loved soccer from an early age, and who found a way to make it a part of his life. Football and soccer go far beyond the lines on the pitch, the dugouts, the film rooms or the technical areas. Football has the ability to connect so many of us, no matter where we are, and Chris’ work has gone a long way to help spread the love that football can bring. I can’t explain to you how truly humbled I am to have him on the show. My only regret is that we were unable to have the conversation face to face. Luckily Skype is wonderful for that sort of thing.

My first ever interaction with Chris Macchi came after I saw him on the Premier League in USA’s Instagram Story on a random Saturday about 18 months or so ago. The segment itself intrigued me. Here’s an American guy, living in London, and bringing me (and viewers throughout the US) along to each of the matches he attended. From tube station to train car, to pub beer garden to local eatery, “On the Ground” became something I looked forward to each weekend. As I migrated over to Chris’ personal account, I got little glimpses of someone who was doing amazing work every day, but instead of telling everyone exactly how cool the things he was doing were, he just did them, and every once in a while he would give you a little glimpse of what was going on behind the scenes.

As the algorithms did their work I began to see more and more from Chris. He made Arsenal home matches fun again with Arsenal Fan Fan TV- if you don’t know, you are missing out. He popped up at Fulham matches, and cheered Tim Ream on, while sitting next to Heather O’Reilly. He taught us all how to do the Dele hand thing, he took us to “The Darts and let us all fly with him, his dad and his brother in a B17 Bomber. Not to mention some of the biggest names in US soccer media went out for beers with him or wound up in his flat watching matches or having dinner. Seeing all of that, I wanted to know what made him go. I wanted to know how he got there, what his story was, and I set out to learn more and, eventually, get him on the show.

This episode doesn’t fit the normal format of the show. Chris isn’t a Saints’ fan, we don’t talk about Saints’ matches, and, even with cutting something like 45 minutes from the conversation, it’s far too long. But, it is a story of someone who’s passion and work ethic made the difference. I admire so much about what Chris has done, what he’s continuing to do, and I’m eagerly anticipating what he’ll do in the future.

Chris and I take a walk through his journey, from moving as a kid, to playing in college, to an early Vine that helped land him at Kick TV (see Vine here), to the struggles of telling stories in 15 second clips and making life work in the midst of all of that. So, whether you are set in your career, looking for a job, still in school or waiting for your parent to pick you up or make dinner, I’d encourage you to give this episode a listen and remember all the steps that went into putting Chris Macchi on the ground where he is today. I could not think of a better way to start 2019 than by releasing this episode.

Follow Chris on Twitter and Instagram, both @mxcchi. You can find out more by going→ https://tap.bio/@mxcchi

As always, thanks for listening.

Christmas is here and it is, really, one of the most wonderful times of the year. It’s far from my favorite holiday, but I do love seeing my family.This year it’s especially hard to be a Scrooge with the way things are going on the pitch for Saints, who have won back to back Premier League matches for the first time since they last did it 20 months ago, 2017 under Claude Puel.

The tactics are easier on the eye, the players look inspired, and it all got even better with both Redmond and Obafemi getting their first goals of the season (Obafemi becoming Saints youngest PL goal scorer ever).

In all, it was a great time to talk to Tom Mason of Read Southampton. The combination of time with family and the improvement in Saints put us in good spirits, and the rest pretty much takes care of itself.

Thanks to Tom for joining me this week, be sure to give him a follow on Twitter and Instagram below.

From my family to yours, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday season!

Welcome to the second ever installment of the Total Saints FC Dellivery Podcast, Christmas Edition.

Ben, John and I got together (and by got together I mean I sat in the California sun on a Skype call) to answer your questions, talk a little bit about the podcasts and discuss Saints, with a side of Christmas cheer.... I really enjoy hosting the show, but I feel like I'm a very bad guest.

As always, thanks for listening to and supporting the show. It really is a pleasure and an honor to be able to do the show each and every week.

We'll have a regular episode next Tuesday (yes, I know it's Christmas day, but my OCD won't let it go) and we'll be back on schedule after that- hopefully with Saints giving it a go as well!

Be sure to follow John and Ben and their shows, and remember that together, we march on!

Imagine not having access to Saints for 4 months. You go away, don’t have a lot of time for the internet, or TV, or the Premier League or anything like that. Now, tune in on Sunday and see the manner of the performance against Arsenal. It would be completely mind blowing. You would think the changes to the squad must have been a slow evolution over that four months…

That’s not exactly how Zach Coopersmith’s (@moamfanzachary - Instagram) journey was, but he was on a boat for 4 months, and now he’s off the boat, been to the MLS Cup Final, watched Saints get their second league win of the season, and their first win at home since my kids were born (slight exaggeration, maybe). Join us and give his pages a follow!

This is episode 100. 100 straight weeks of planning, arranging, recording, editing, mixing, producing and distributing an episode of the show. When all the math is done, it comes out to just over 20 full days of work. Almost a month of my life, 1/24 of my time over the last two years has been spent doing this thing I love so very much.

This COULD NOT and WOULD NOT happen without the support of so many of you. So I’d just like to say thank you to all of you who have listened and shared, reviewed and rated, and provided feedback. To all the guests who have come on, somewhere in the neighborhood of 90 different people, this is as much about you as it is me. So, in short, thank you!

For this milestone episode I’m joined by Matt Beling of the We Are Southampton page on Instagram (@wearesouthampton). Matt was one of the first people to be made aware of the podcast when it was being put together. He’s done the logos for the show (including the new Patreon only podcast feed logo), he’s given my feedback and he’s been on the show a few times as well. It only seemed fitting that he would be the one to come on for this episode, two years after it started. To make things even better, Matt has a bit of announcement of his own. He’s now set to take a job at the Southampton Football Club in the media department. So, thank you, Matt, and congratulations on having your wonderful work recognized and getting the job you’ve been talking about for more than two years! Good luck

One more thing. I’ve launched a Patreon page for the podcast at https://www.patreon.com/sfcdellivery where you can help support the show. It is NOT required or expected, but if you are willing and able, I would truly appreciate your support and you’ll get a little extra in return. If you are interested in learning more about how you can help, or why would do this, head over to https://www.patreon.com/sfcdellivery and check it out. And don’t worry, this show, the Tuesday show, will always be here, until my wife says otherwise.

Sweet Dream, or a beautiful nightmare… really depends on how you view it. Hughes is out… announced, conveniently, after the show was recorded. But, it’s all part of what happens. Dan Hargraves joined me to discuss the matches against Leicester and United, and to look ahead to some of the fixtures coming between now and January. Also, we fired the manager…. After we recorded, did I mention that? Did I mention I stated he would be safe? Yeah, things went well.

Anyway, Dan was great and you should get involved with some of the projects he is involved with. They are below.

Dan James is, in my eyes at least, pretty remarkable. I first contacted him over the summer of 2017, while walking around the backyard of my in-laws trying to find guests for the show without my wife realizing that the real reason I wasn’t in the pool with the kids was because I wanted the next 6 guests lined up before I “enjoyed” myself (after writing that I realize, nobody needs to know that… and in reality nobody cares). But, from that one message, he agreed to come on the show in September and I was blown away by his commitment to the cause.

Fast forward to April, when I was over in London, and after a battering at the London Stadium, Dan met Freddie (from the Ugly Inside) and I for a few beers after the match near Waterloo Station… It may not sound like a lot to you, but it meant a lot to me and it’s something I will forever associate with Dan… that and the fact he’s attended almost 200 consecutive competitive Saints matches (and still made time to chat with me about Fulham).

This week we talk about the loss to Fulham, the positives in Armstrong and the team really dominating play for the majority of the game, but we also discuss the poor defending, the attitudes of some of the players, and the team’s inability to hold on to a lead, and more. I also ask about the stadium and the pubs, but that’s mostly because I’m American and I’d like to have a good day out next time I’m over.

Anyway, if you don’t already follow @thedanjames on Twitter or Instagram you should. You’ll see lots of Saints stuff and some other endeavors as well. He’s always up to talk football, so if you see him, whether he’s out or working, don’t be afraid to have a chat.

It’s almost Thanksgiving here in the USA. It’s my favorite time of year, it’s better than Christmas or Halloween, or even Easter. It’s a time to reflect, a time to remind ourselves of all that we have that is good, and a chance to surround ourselves with those people we love the most.

When I spoke with Becky Harris, senior player for the Southampton Women’s Football Club and current reserves player, the way she spoke about the team and how they were there for each other when the club was going through tough times, how the pushed each other to get better, and encouraged one another to get better, it just reminded me of exactly what a team should be, and who we should surround ourselves with. Becky and I spoke about a lot of things, from her family and sports growing up, to playing football, the gym, work, life, and more, but the one thing that stood out, the one thing I really took away from the time we spent on Skype, was just how special the club is.

I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did, amd a special thanks to Becky (@becky4h) and the club for making it happen! Also, shoutout to @EliteFootballDC who sponsors (end employs) Becky!

Full disclosure, I sponsor a coach of the team and as a result have a small advertisement with the club. If you are interested in sponsoring a player, coach, or advertising, you can visit the contact page on the website, or email the club secretary (email below).

A special thank you to the Southampton Women’s Football Club, Amanda Burroughs, Simon Parker, Lee Calendar, and Becky for making this happen. It’s a pleasure and an honor to have to opportunity to work with such a fantastic organization and such amazing people.

This week Tim Marshall joins me to reflect on the past week at Saints. Tim, who’s been on the show before, kindly joined me last minute, when my scheduled guest woke up ill (ps. Hope you get better soon, very much looking forward to having you on soon)!

Tim jumped in and we recorded a show that had a lot to break down. Considering the week that was with Les Reed departing, Martin Hunter leaving, Ralph Krueger’s interview with Adam Leitch and more. Then, we get to the actual match against Watford, where some sort of Sunday League Referee wound up on the pitch and made a mess of it all.

Tim and I also discussed the events that took place ahead of Remembrance Sunday, with the enhanced focus on WWI and the contribution of Southampton as a city, as the day of recording marked 100 years since the end of hostilities.

In all, I hope you enjoy the show, despite the long length, and we’ll be back next week with more. Follow Tim on Twitter @timjmarshall and on Instagram at the same handle.

First things first, this week’s episode contains some adult language. I’ve beeped it (at least most of it), but be warned.

Moving on...I’m not really a “win at all costs” type of person. But I am, without a doubt, someone who believes in working your absolute tail off, day in and day out, putting in extra time to improve and get better each and every day. To the point where I find it easier to criticize someone like Pogba over Shane Long. In fact, I’d take Long on my team over Pogba all day. I know it doesn’t make any sense at all, and it might be petty and stupid and short sighted, but there are some things I respect and some things I can’t and won’t tolerate… with that said, my goodness do we need to score some goals, and play defence, and really just get things sorted out. The display at the Etihad was atrocious, and the team desperately need to turn things around.

This week I spoke with Aydin Osman who was at the match, and we discuss it, take some questions, regarding the team, and the management, and everything else. You can follow Aydin on Twitter @Aydin_Osman96 and on Instagram @aydinosman96.

This week I talked with Playmakers FC Podcast host, and Prost Amerika writer, Conor Dunford. We spoke just after a disappointing draw at home to Newcastle. The 5th consecutive match in which Saints failed to score. A match where the team denied him press access and dropped points to the side entering the day on the bottom of the table. It was, in part due to other circumstances in my life at the time, a hard podcast to record. And, none of it matters. Not the result, not Saints’ table position. Nothing. We recorded all of this before he or I knew anything of the tragic helicopter crash that claimed the lives of 5 people after Leicester City’s draw at home to West Ham. It put things into perspective, but that perspective doesn’t exactly show up on the podcast, and I just want to be very clear that we recorded the podcast without any knowledge of the crash.

Since then, I’ve had the wonderful opportunity to take my dad and my so to game 5 of the World Series, where the Red Sox clinched the title over the Dodgers. My son and my dad are both huge Dodger fans. He and I spent a lot of time in Dodger Stadium when I was a kid, so to be able to take him there for the pinnacle of the sport was truly special. To have my son be a part of it as well, and with the reminder that life is short and fragile fresh on my mind, I can say it was one of the best experiences of my life. Perspective is important.

To the family of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, and the supporters of Leicester City, and to all the people that are hurting from a loss, I’m sorry. I hope we can continue to come together and support those who need it, whenever they need it.

You can follow Conor Dunford, Playmakers FC and Prost Amerika below. We also discussed grief and sport and there is a specific piece mentioned by Conor. The link to that piece, written by Ryan Conway is here.

Note: I beeped out a word towards the end of the show. It led to a longer conversation, but I cut it entirely. Blame it on me being American. Cheers, I mean bye, I mean enjoy the show.*

Saints got a point on the road, and the debate over whether it’s a point gained or two dropped is still up for debate. I know how I feel, but I got mixed messages from fans and listeners on social media following Saturday’s match at the Vitality Stadium. Feel free to let us know your feelings, by the way. Still interested in your perspective, even as focu shifts a bit to Newcastle.

Joining me on the podcast this week to discuss the match, the team selection, its impact, writing and more is Sam Cox of Fresh Saints. You probably know Fresh Saints and will likely have seen their match reviews in The Daily Mail and have visited their site freshsaints.com. Sam contributes and writes and edits and all of that for Fresh Saints and other sites, and is a longtime Saints’ fan.

He brings a good deal of perspective to the podcast and it was wonderful to chat about the point earned on the road and more. We didn’t go into detail about Charlie Austin’s tweet, so don’t expect a ton on it. Neither of us saw it until it was too late. Oh well.

Give Sam a follow @MrSamECox and that way you can get his writing wherever it is published, whenever it happens. Give @FreshSaints a follow as well for more high quality writing about Saints.

It’s always a pleasure to chat with anyone associated with Fresh Saints. The site, in my opinion, has a

The thought of not having club football for one weekend seems to send most fans into a bit of fit. I’ll be honest, when that weekend comes, it does feel like something is missing. It drags on a bit, especially when you are playing well. But, that feeling of missing something, of not being able to have something you enjoy and look forward to is so much greater for an athlete who is forced to miss multiple months through injury.

That helps frame just some of the conversation I had this week with Amie Barnett. Amie has been a member of Southampton Women’s for 10 years. Over that time she’s seen the club struggle and thrive. She’s worked with a number of dedicated managers and teammates, all of whom she admires and spoke highly of. The club has seen success in recent years, and we discussed that, her early career, the role football played in her life while growing up, and her plans for the future. We also discuss our collective fear of crossing the halfway line. It’s really, really scary, and we discuss why neither of us do it.

There is also, this week more so than normal, some personal anecdotes from me. I usually try to cut them out, but I left more of them in here this week. Not because I think I’m important or that you desperately want to hear about them, but because they reflect the type of conversation Amie and I had. It really did feel like we were just talking, not like I was interviewing someone. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad, but I’m happy with the result and I hope you are too.

Amie is on Twitter and Instagram @amie_barnett and @amiebarnett and the links to the club’s contact info is below.

Thank you. Amie, for taking the time to chat. Between your family, wedding planning, training, rehab on the knee, work and everything else, you could have easily said no to this. I, and I’m sure the listeners, appreciate it very much.

Full disclosure, I sponsor a coach of the team and as a result have a small advertisement with the club. If you are interested in sponsoring a player, coach, or advertising, you can visit the contact page on the website, or email the club secretary (email below). My Amie is sponsored Doswell Projects and you can find out more about them at https://doswellprojects.co.uk/.

A special thank you to the Southampton Women’s Football Club, Amanda Burroughs, Simon Parker, Lee Calendar, and Amie for making this happen. It’s a pleasure and an honor to have to opportunity to work with such a fantastic organization and such amazing people.

There are some opportunities that may only come once in a lifetime. I’ve had the wonderful pleasure of hosting and speaking with a number of people on this show. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 80-90 different voices on the club have been aired on this show. Some happy, others sad, some critical, others full of praise. From former players to public figures to people I now consider friends, it’s been great. Speaking to other fans is the best part of doing this.

And with all that said, this week is special. I had the opportunity to speak with Tom Deacon, comedian, presenter, podcast host and pretty much just all around amazing guy. I can honestly say I wish I had more time with him. I wish I could have gotten more into his comedy and life, but we were here to talk about Saints, and about his work with them and being a fan, and what it’s like when those two things overlap. That’s what we have here. I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks to Tom for making time for us to chat and sorry you had bus replacement home.

This week on this show I’m joined by Yasmin Wiseman, a long-time, dedicated Saints fan and a member of the Saints Voice Panel. So, the day after Wolves, after the long ride, the disappointment of the match, the late arrival home and despite not feeling well, she joined me. And it was great. It was great just to talk to her about her life supporting Saints, the team, the good times and the bad. I asked about a lot of things, I forgot to ask about others, and I’m sure next time I’ll a better job. As for Yasmin, she was great, and I think you’ll enjoy the chat.

Be sure to give her a follow @MissYjw1 on Twitter and Instagram @MissYjw1.

Also, there may be a few curse words in this week’s episode (beeped out, of course), but just know they are in there.

Richard Brereton, you have won a copy of "Being a Saint" from last week's guest.... DM me your address and we'll get it shipped out ASAP! Thanks to everyone who participated!

Saints made the long trip to Anfield and back with nothing to show. A mistake-filled performance against a supremely talented Liverpool side showed why each are where they are in the table. Liverpool have more wins than Saints have points. Saints failed to close down a cross, mark their opposite number on a corner, and help their goalkeeper by coming to clean a shot off the crossbar. We’ve seen these types of things before, and now we’re left with familiar questions from previous years. The mentality of the team, the quality in the squad, the leadership capabilities of management, and more.

Joining me to discuss all of that and more on this week’s show is JJ Hughes, editor of St. Mary’s Musings. JJ’s been here before and will be back on again, and he also writes about MMA, if you are into that sort of thing. Luckily he wasn’t sat ringside for the early knockout of Saints at Anfield, we had the benefit of replay but in the end I think we agree, the judges got it right.

You can get in touch with JJ on Twitter @JJHughes_ and follow @StMary’sMusings, SB Nation’s Southampton Site, for all of your Saints’ news from a fantastic team of writers and a hilarious social media team. You can also visit the website at stmarysmusings.sbnation.com.

As always, thanks for the questions and support, and a special thanks to JJ for chatting with me for 2.5 hour, because dudes can talk on the phone about life and music and sports and it’s totally fine.

Alright, alright, we’re up 2-0… okay, 2-1 now, but it’s only stoppage time left… and there’s a penalty… Oh… oh! Oh nooooo! We drew 2-2, at home to Brighton. Cool. That’s all I have to say about that for now.

But, as far as this week’s episode goes, we had plenty to talk about. I spoke with Richard Walters, author, businessman, and life-long follower of Saints, about his new book Being a Saint: The Pain, Passion and Pleasure of being a Southampton FC Fan. The book is brand new and is the latest in a long line of books Walters has authored. It may be his first book dedicated to Saints, but it’s a long time in the making and packed full of history, stories, insight and more.

To get your copy of the book head over to richardwaltersauthor.co.uk and get your copy, and if you’d like the chance to win a free copy of the book, head over to Twitter, like the tweet pinned on my page (from 1:30pm BEST Tuesday, 9/18), and give Richard a follow (@RWaltersauthor). We’ll announce the winner on next week’s show.

As always, let us know what you think of the show and how we can improve, and we look forward to hearing from all of you.

This week I am happy to bring you my conversation with Emma Pinner (@EPinner7), a striker for the Southampton Women’s Football Club. If you have been around and listening to the podcast for a while, you will know that from time to time I get the chance to chat with the players and coaches of the Southampton Women’s Football Club. I’m fortunate to have the chance to learn about the players, their careers, their habits and goals, and it brings me great pleasure to be able to share some of those conversations with you on the podcast. If you do not already support a women’s team in the Southampton area, I encourage you to take some time on a Sunday (or midweek sometimes) and watch the girls play. They are passionate, talented, organized and a joy to support!

Emma and I talked about her career, her goals for the season, her injury last year and we also took some questions from her teammates and others on Twitter. We were also interrupted about 100 times, by the dog, and my daughter, and the recorder running low on batteries and more. So, some of that makes it in there and I hope you enjoy a little of the behind the scenes that is in this conversation. Real life was happening right alongside me while I spoke to Emma. If you hate it, that’s fine. Next week will probably be back to normal.

Full disclosure, I sponsor a coach of the team and as a result have a small advertisement with the club. If you are interested in sponsoring a player, coach, or advertising, you can visit the contact page on the website, or email the club secretary (email below).

A special thank you to the Southampton Women’s Football Club, Amanda Burroughs, Simon Parker, Lee Calendar, and Emma for making this happen. It’s a pleasure and an honor to have to opportunity to work with such a fantastic organization and such amazing people.

Saints had quite a bit to celebrate this week, with two wins and two clean sheets in two chances, a number of members called up for international duty, and what seems some budding partnerships on the pitch, the mood and feeling are about as positive as they have been in over a year (maybe excluding the win of Swansea, but that was more relief, I think).

Another week, another instance of Cedric being out jumped at the back post, another late goal allowed takes points from Saints, and once again we drop points at home, to a team that we would expect to beat given that they were Vardy and Mahrez-less.

Nonetheless, we are here with an episode and this week I’m joined by Jamie Grant (@strangerIngs) who runs the @SuthamptonPage on Twitter and Instagram. We break down the match, discuss the good and the bad and, eventually, get to a brief preview of the Carabao Cup Match with Brighton.

I recorded this show on the road (actually just off of a road, down by the river) because I have an awesome wife and fantastic friends who plan cool stuff for us to do when it’s around our birthdays, etc.). Thanks to Mondo and Karin, and Biscuit and Luz… and mostly my wife, Amanda… I’ll talk to you when you are done watching that KU Volleyball match.

As always, I hope you enjoy the show, and I look forward to hearing from you!

Saints are coming off another loss at Goodison park. Once again, the team started slowly and was on the back foot for much of the first half, and went into halftime down 2-0. Many aspects of the match were similar to those we saw last season. A slow start, Cedric left along and losing a header, an inability to control the game. But, there were also some positives as well. Saints did create some clear chances and Mark Hughes made some attacking changes, at one point going 4-2-4, with three strikers on the pitch. In all, it wasn’t a total loss. No points, but the first of what we all hope will be many Danny Ings goals this season.

The loss, however, does put more pressure on Saints for the return of Claude Puel to St. Mary’s as he brings his Leicester City side, who will be without Jamie Vardy, for a Premier League clash next weekend.

I talk all of that with my guest this week, Daniel Adams. He’s on Twitter @Dan23SFC, and he runs the @TheSaintsFCPage on Instagram. He joined me from Malaysia, where he follows Saints and runs the page. It was a pleasure getting to chat with him, and the page offers a lot to anyone not already following. So, click the links and get over to him now!

Additionally, I had the chance to meet with Neil Crespin, host of the Six-O-Saints Podcast on Sunday. We met while he and his wife were visiting southern California and it was great to sit and chat with both of them, about life, the team, podcasting and everything in between. If you haven’t given the podcat a try yet I encourage you to both listen AND give your input. You can call in and give your opinion on anything Saints related and Neil will have a short chat with you and it will be put on the show. Text 07583 830606 to get started. Also, listen here.

The first match of the season has come and gone, and Saints get out of it with a 0-0 draw against at home to a Burnley side that was coming off a Thursday night Europa League qualifier in Turkey. The team looked lost during the early going, and it we seemed unable to really control the match in the middle of the park. However, some personnel and formation changes in the second half saw Saints get on the front foot, and the new signings who got in the match all made an impact on the pitch.

I discuss all of that, plus listener questions with Christin Candler (@thecandler on Twitter). Plus, we take your questions and Jay give us a page from the Southampton Page.

Be sure to get in touch with the show and give Christian and the Southampton Page a follow.

Parts of the squad spent time in Russia, most have gone to China and back, been to France, and finally Staplewood and St. Mary’s. As fans, we’ve analyzed transfers and rumors, watched dodgy streams, called for action, and probably gotten our hopes all too high, while at the same time causing scenes in various corners of the internet when the team didn’t perform as well as we would have liked.

With all of that out of the way, the season is here. Finally.

This week on the show I’m joined by a number of guests to help give us some insight into what we think will happen this season. This show wouldn’t be anything without the guests who so willingly contribute their time and the listeners who listen and give feedback as often as they do. This is truly the best thing about the show. Interacting with you, talking to people, getting to hear their reasoning, talking about the club we all love.

Give this week’s guests a follow on Twitter if you are not doing so already.

We spoke before the end of the transfer window, and before the final (somewhat depressing) pre-season match. So, if we seem a bit more cheerful than you think is appropriate, just keep that in mind.

TWO NEW Saints FC PODCASTS:

Yes, this episode is long. I apologize. Also, I said Mike Murphy lives on the Isle of White, and that’s a lie. Mike Russell lives there. Mike Murphy lives in Florida. Both do podcast stuff. I follow them both. I apologize for making the mistake.

Talk about your all-time backfires. Get a guy who loves and produces podcasts and who happens to be a Saints fan and who also happens to be a lifelong resident of Southampton, then have him on your show and then make sure you mess up the audio worse than you have in at least 6 months. Super. Great job, Matt.

But, Chris Huskins is my guest this week, and he’s amazing. From Podcast production to digital marketing and speaking, he does a fantastic job. He’s been someone I’ve sought out time and time again to get feedback and advice on the podcast, and he’s truly been invaluable in the development of this show. All of the links to his stuff are below and I highly recommend you look him up, give him and follow and check out his website, no matter what stage of podcast/project production you are at.

So, this week we talk his history with the club, from the days at the Dell to the coming season, we talk podcasting, and we have a good time doing it. I hope you have a good time listening to it, and we always welcome your feedback.

Follow Chris Huskins, yo.

This week I chatted with Blake Hampton (@BlakeAHampton on Twitter) about the most recent week for Saints. With four new signings in, we’ll discuss the overall performance of the squad in the friendly against Derby, the business that’s been done thus far, and answer a load of questions sent in via Twitter, Instagram and Facebook (thank you, by the way).

As always, I hope you enjoy the episode. Please be sure to share, rate, and review the show wherever you listen.

The World Cup is over. The trophy goes to France and if N’Golo Kante’s sheepish grin can’t cheer you up, maybe some talk about Saints’ newest signings can. So, that’s what we have this week. I spoke with two podcast hosts this week to get their perspective on Angus Gunn and Jaanik Vestergaard.

First, I spoke with Jon Punt from alongcomenorwich.com about Angus Gunn. Although Saints signed Gunn from Manchester City, he was on loan at Norwich last season and grew up a fan of the club. His father, Bryan Gunn was also a goalkeeper and manager at Norwich. We discuss Angus’ attributes, his ceiling, he motivation and more. We also check in on Harrison Reed and get Jon’s view on his loan spell at Norwich last season.

Jon and the rest of the Along Come Norwich crew spoke with Angus’ father Bryan on an episode of their podcast a few months ago. In it, Bryan gave some more insight into Angus’s development and aspirations. The link is below if you are interested in giving it a listen.

Secondly, I spoke with Manuel Breuer of the Vollraute Abroad Podcast. Manuel (now living in London) and his colleagues (still in Mönchengladbach) present the podcast in both German and English and focus on all things Borussia Mönchengladbach. I spoke with Manuel about Vestergaard’s time at the club, what we can expect from him and what his future might look like. I look forward to keeping in touch with Manuel over the next few weeks as our friendly with the club gets closer.

So, hopefully you enjoy the episode. Feel free to check out the information on each of the guests below and give the Bryan Gunn interview on Along Come Norwich a listen.

Saints are once again adding to the crew. Just hours after @Toddrick33 and I sat down to record this episode, Saints’ pursuit of Jannik Vestergaard intensified as the move now seems imminent. Meanwhile, back here in the US there is another Crew, in Columbus, that is being threatened.

Todd joins me to discuss becoming a fan of Saints, his trip to St. Mary’s, the current situation surrounding the Columbus Crew, Saints transfer window, a bit on the World Cup and even some listener questions.

Todd also does a podcast focused on the Columbus Crew. You can find them on Twitter @Podcast4Cbus.

As always, let us know how we did.

Saints have been busy this week. From signing a new attacker, to welcoming back the majority of the squad for the beginning of training to getting on a plane over the China for the first few friendlies ahead of the new campaign. We discussed Stuart Armstrong and his potential impact last week with Stephen Brandt, and this week we turn our focus to newly signed Norwegian international, Mohamed Elyounoussi. The attacker comes to Saints from FC Basel, and lucky for us, there is a Saints fan who holds a season ticket at FC Basel. He’s former Saints Podcast host, Andrew Walker (on Twitter @SaintsPodcast and on Instagram @andydubya84). We discuss Elyounoussi, the trip to China, our defenders, and what we think the club needs to do the rest of the window… and a bit of the World Cup as well.

Hope you enjoy it! Let us know what you think!

Note There's a little bit of clicking coming from the Skype connection during Mark's interview. Sorry about that. Hopefully you can ignore it.

Stories play a huge role in our lives. We listened to them as children, we pass on tales of adventure both true and embellished to our kids, for centuries before there was writing, the entire history of humankind and of earth was passed down orally. So, it only seems natural that, in this age of advanced technology, more and more people who enjoy telling stories are coming to audio (to podcasts, specifically) to share their stories with the world.

Mark Sanderson is an author, a PR guy, a dad, a husband, a Saints fan, and a storyteller. His articles are entertaining, and his book both intriguing and inspiring. He’s been on this show before to talk about his book Bobby Stokes: The Man from Portsmouth who Scored Southampton’s Most Famous Goal, and now he’s back to talk a little bit about his new show, “Behind the Story: A Podcast Mostly About Football.” Join us as we talk stories, football, Saints, the World Cup and more.

Also joining my this week is another writer and podcaster from the USA. Stephen Brandt is the Host of Yellow Card Podcast, a general football podcast and a show on MLS’s list of 50 Podcasts you should listen to. Stephen supports Celtic (and LFC) so he joins me briefly to discuss Stuart Armstrong and fill me in on what we’re getting in the Scottish midfielder.

Yellow Card Podcast will be on this Tuesday at 7:30PM EST and available everywhere listen to podcasts after that. They’re talking with @InsideAthletic this week, so if you have any questions about Athletic Bilbao be sure to tune in.

Father’s day has just passed, and on that day, and hopefully others as well, we remember the connection and relationship we have with our dad’s. Additionally, for those of us fortunate enough to have children, it’s a chance to spend some time with them, and gives them a chance to tell us what they think.

Not all homes are happy ones, and not all relationships are good ones, but often there is some bond, something that draws the best out of all involved. For my dad and I it was baseball. He coached, I played, I watched his softball games, we went to professional games together, we watched at home, he taught me all about the game, about the intricacies and subtleties of it, and for most of my life I loved baseball more than anything else.

I was lucky to have that. No matter what else happened in our relationship, we had that, and that won’t change.

This week on the show I spoke with Steve and Dan Jarvis about their relationship and supporting Saints. Steve was in an accident over 30 years ago that left him with limited vision. He and Dan discuss the impact of his impaired vision affected their relationship, supporting Saints home and away, the team and more.

You can follow Dan and Steve on Twitter @danjarvisSFC91 and @SteveJarvisSFC, and don’t be afraid to say hello to them at a game or in a pub, they are both very friendly and I’m very honored to be able to talk to them in this manner, and grateful that they agreed to open up a bit about their relationship.

Steve and Dan talked about a website they use to help make sure Steve has a radio in order to be sure Steve could hear the radio commentary. The website is http://www.levelplayingfield.org.uk/ so if you know of anyone who may be able to take advantage of the services offered please pass it on. They are there to help make sure everyone can enjoy the events as much as everyone else.

The World Cup kicks off this week in Russia, but if won’t be in the land of borscht and vodka this summer, don’t worry. You are far from alone. Virgil Van Dyke, Ryan Bertrand, Radja Nainggolan, Leroy Sane, all of the USMNT and Italy, and many more are missing out on the trip.

But, Saints are sending four players to represent the club in Russia this summer, and though we’ve covered Jan Bednarek’s Poland already (link here if you missed it), we’re taking a some time this week to make sure we get at least a brief look at the other players making the trip.

Jay Grant of the @southamptonpage joins me to talk Yoshida and Japan, and George Rebbeck (@polishmaldini )

and Harry Holder(@Nadalesque) of the @SaintsCentre stop by to take a look at Cedric’s Portugal and Tadic’s Serbia.

Join us as we take a look at the clubs and the players, and help get our set our expectations just high enough so it hurts really badly when they are crushed.

Be sure to give Jay, George, and Harry a follow on Twitter and/or Instagram and follow the Saints Centre and The Southampton Page for your Saints FC news and updates.

The Southampton Women’s Football Club has had quite a run of late. Earning promotion in successive seasons the past two years and only narrowly missing out on an undefeated season and promotion this year. The club has undergone changes in its structure and coaching staff and have come through it all brilliantly. I’ve had the enormous pleasure of being semi-involved with the club over the course of this season. I sponsored one of the coaches, I was able to interview players and coaches, and I have come to love the club just as I love Saints.

The opportunity to speak with Tash Angel, a defender at the club, was amazing. She was easy to talk to, willing to answer almost every question I had, and I can genuinely say I enjoyed the entire thing, from the preparation to the interview to the editing. We were originally scheduled to speak a few months ago, in the buildup to the Hampshire FA Cup Final. However, after the team was disqualified for, according to the allegation and the Hampshire FA’s interpretation of the rule, fielding an ineligible player. The impending appeals process meant Tash and I had to delay our conversation until the matter was settled.

Remnants of the conversation and discussion over the teams disqualification and subsequent appeals are on Twitter, and Tash and I do talk a bit about it during the interview. The disappointment and frustration associated with the situation are clearly visible in many people who follow the club, myself included. If you’d like to read the statement provided by the club after their unsuccessful appeal you can do so here.

Tash and I discuss a number of things aside from the situation surrounding the FA Cup. We talk training and fitness, game day routines, expectations and take some questions from a few listeners. I hope you enjoy listening to the show as much as I enjoyed my conversation with Tash.

If you are interested in sponsoring a player, coach, or advertising, you can visit the contact page on the website, or email the club secretary (email below).

A special thank you to the Southampton Women’s Football Club, Amanda Burroughs, Simon Parker, Lee Calendar, and Tash for making this happen. It’s a pleasure to be able to work with such a fantastic organization.

We are officially done with top flight domestic seasons. The promotion finals are over, the Champions League Final is done, and International Friendlies have already begun. It’s not that Saints aren’t in the news at all, with Mark Hughes and the first team coaching staff signing new three-year contracts last week, but aside from that, there isn’t all that much going on.

So, for this week,we’ve teamed up with a bunch of other podcasts and in conjunction with @Tactics_FC to help bring you a World Cup preview podcast for each team at the tournament. My part in this is to bring a preview of the Poland squad. This is partially driven by the fact that my country of birth (USA) and the two countries my family comes from (Italy and Norway) failed to make the tournament, leaving me without a country to truly pull for in the finals. Plus, add to it I find Poland’s history, both on and off the pitch, to be interesting, and I kinda know a guy (or at least I’ve spoken with one before) that can help shed some light on the squad. Oh, and Bednarek is potentially going to make the final roster, so that’s also pretty cool too.

This is where Chris Lash (@rightbankwarsaw and also rightbankwarsaw.com) come in. He lives and breathes Poland’s Ekstraklasa and has his own website, podcast, has done TV, etc. So, when I saw the opportunity to get to speak with him again and learn about the history of the squad and the expectations that they take with them into their first WC Finals appearance in 12 years.

The season is over, the super pod is done and the transfer window is not yet open. So, it was the perfect time to get the opinions and thoughts from some familiar voices and some new friends on the 2017/2018 season, the manager, where we’re going next and more.

The voicemails are raw, the calls are pretty much as I took them, with very little editing done. I wanted to both make sure and capture the thoughts of the callers, and also preserve some time with my family, as both of my kids had “the football” all weekend… oh, and then my neighbor tried to hit someone with a Louisville Slugger, so that was also pretty cool, because who needs sleep?

I wish I could have talked to everyone for a lot longer, but I really enjoy listening to the messages and chatting with those of you I was able to chat with. If you couldn't make the time work you can always try again in the future.

Quick Note a few audio issues this week, still don’t have all the bugs worked out just yet but everything should be back to normal by next week.

What A Feeling! Tuesday was a rollercoaster of emotions to say the least. The anticipation of the match, the nerves as Swansea attacked and threw men forward, the worry when all of our shots seemed to be going wide or hitting the keeper, and the relief when Gabbiadini put in the net, when McCarthy made that save, and when the referee finally blew the final whistle.

Baring some catastrophic turn of events on Sunday, WE ARE STAYING UP, say WE ARE STAYING UP! And I could not be happier about it!

For this episode I had two calls, my good friend Jamie Grant and Freddie from The Ugly Inside each left me a voice memo (and you can too!) so you’ll hear those, along with a long-winded intro (sorry) and my conversation with fellow Saints FC fan, podcaster, and writer Richard Kharman. We recap the match nd how we’re feeling about the team just moments after it all ended, and Richard helps fill me in on the parts of the match I missed due to work (seriously, I know).

Saints were painfully close to taking all three points on Saturday at Goodison Park. After taking the lead through a well worked team goal finished off by Nathan Redmond at the back post, Saints took the 1-0 lead into stoppage time, though they were light a man after Yoshida was sent off for picking up a second yellow in the 85th minute.

Even after McCarthy made a spectacular save to deny Leighton Baines from a central free kick, John Moss let stoppage time enter the 6th minute of the 4 (no, that’s not an error), and, with the last kick of the match, Tom Davies’ effort from the top of the box took a deflection off of Wesley Hoedt and past an already committed McCarthy.

The draw pulled Saints out of the relegation zone and puts all the pressure and focus on Tuesday night’s clash with Swansea and the Liberty Stadium. Harry Holder (@nadaIesque on Twitter), admin for @TheSaintsReport, joined me to discuss the match and how the other results affect Saints standing in the table.

Harry is also on Instagram and I regularly use his photos from the match on my Instagram page, so please make sure to check him out @hholderphoto and @hholder16.

Alex- “Dusan Tadic, Mario Lemina, Nathan Redmond”

Contestant- “Who are Southampton FC players who have underachieved for nearly all of the 2017/2018 but were instrumental in the club’s April 2018 victory over Bournemouth which left them in the relegation zone that gave the club and the fans some much needed hope and a chance to stay in the Premier League… also, Alex McCarthy is amazing.”

Alex-”... you may have only answered one question correctly today, but that was brilliant. It is your selection now”

Contestant- "I'll take #pompey sucks for $1,000, Alex. UTS."

Saints took a huge step towards securing a place in England’s top flight last weekend with a hard-fought victory over fellow south coast team Bournemouth. The game, at times, was intense. It took a huge amount of effort and organization from the entire team, and a few moments of excellence from Alex McCarthy and Dusan Tadic to secure the win for the Saints, who’s hopes of survival would have been all but buried had the team not managed to take all three points.

Joining me to discuss the match and all the build up to it, is George Galpin (@GGalpin95 on both Twitter and Instagram). George works for Sky Sports and is a well-rounded football fan. It was a pleasure to sit down and chat with him about the season, the match, and what it means for Saints going forward. Be sure to give him a follow and let us know what you think of the episode!

I hate the color blue. I know it sounds like something a 7-year-old might say, but I’m 32 and I’ll stand by it. Football shirts are divided into to major categories, red shirts and blue shirts… there are the occasional teams with other colors, I realize this, but they are the exception to the rule. Anyway, I’ve disliked Chelsea for sometime, given my best friend is an Arsenal fan it’s not hard to image my disdain for the blues. To be honest, I was shocked when Giroud went from Arsenal to Chelsea. He looks better in red, that’s all I’m saying.

Anway, Chelsea x2 and Leicester City (both blue) combined to remove Saints from the FA Cup and push us closer to the Championship in the past week. The team’s performance has varied from silky smooth, free flowing moves, to incisive counter attacks, to calamitous defending and 10 minutes of not knowing which way was up. It’s been a testing week, but also a week in which some Saints’ fans traveled from around the world to witness the FA Cup Semi-final in hopes of seeing us lift a major trophy for only the second time in club history. We all know now it was not to be, but to recap the match, the day, and discuss what it means going forward I have 4 separate guests joining the show.

I talk with Ben, from England, living in the US, who made the trip to London for the match. My good friend Alf. Jay, who runs the Saints Report, and another friend Jem who does a lot of things including a YouTube channel with good, though infrequent matchday Vlogs. You can follow the guests on their social media profiles below, if you wish, and I want to be sure they know how much I appreciate them taking the time to chat with me. Thank you!

Hope you enjoy the episode. As always, let us know what you think!

I, and am sure we, went through a range of emotions on Saturday. From anticipation and excitement, to elation, to euphoria, and then doubt, moving towards despair, until, finally, I settled on hopelessness.

Saturday hurt me, as a fan. It was the first time in a while, perhaps since the cup final last year, I had been truly gutted. No, we aren’t mathematically relegated, but the manner of the defeat crushed me. I’ve said in the past that giving it your all and losing is better than not trying, and I believe that. But, when we finally see the team put their best foot forward, and still fall short, I can’t see us recovering from that.

But, joining me this week to discuss the 3-2 loss to Chelsea and more is Hasan Tariq. Hasan is a frequent contributor to The Ugly Inside and is active in Saints related chat rooms and forums across the internet. He’s joined the show before on call-in shows, but this is his first start, shall we say. It’s not all doom and gloom… it’s not as bad as that 10 minute stretch on Saturday, but it’s probably not as good as Bednarek at the back post either. But, I hope you enjoy it.

Give Hasan a follow on Twitter Instagram, and Facebook. The links are below.

It’s not very often that most of us get to speak to former professionals. Some are public figures in broadcasting or coaching, some move on to other careers, and some slip away from the crowds and make a life for themselves with their families. Those that are public often seem, at least to me, unreachable. You can see them, you may even say hello, but to actually sit down and have a chat is not something most of us will get the chance to do.

John, of the Saints FC Podcast, has managed to track down several former pros for the podcast, and I truly enjoy those episodes because I learn so much about the team and the players of the time, a time before I began following the red and white stripes, before I began singing “Oh When the Saints” at 4:00am most Saturdays, before I began calling it football. For that reason, I feel especially honored have had the chance to speak with former Saints’ and Finland goalkeeper Antti Niemi. If you have been a fan of Saints since the early 2000s then you will know Antti. The blonde haired shot stopper is a fan favorite remembered for his cat like reflexes and acrobatic saves in goal.

But, prior to doing this interview with him, I didn’t really know him at all. So, in the very short time between learning about the opportunity and actually speaking with him, I enjoyed learning about him and his career, watching highlight videos and reading up on other interviews he had done. My hope is that the interview is slightly different than what he would have been asked elsewhere. I didn’t want to do the same old interview, but I hope the interview I did is enjoyed by whoever listens. There are so many other people out there probably better suited to do this interview, but I am grateful for the chance to speak to such a thoughtful, talented, kind and hardworking person.

Antti is still active in football. In addition to coaching for Finland he likes to spend time fishing and with his family.

He is on Instagram @udde72.

Special thanks to Jamie Grant for setting this interview up. Thanks also to Lee Calendar and Michael Kurn for helping with some of the question ideas.

Episode 65 marks a couple of firsts for me. It was after my first ever match, on my first ever trip outside the USA, and recorded a live episode for the first time ever. The podcast has allowed me to speak to so many great people over the time it's been running. From former players, to aspiring journalists and everyone in between. Almost everyone has been super supporting over the time, and to have the opportunity to speak to Nick, Clive, and Freddie of The Ugly Inside was truly a pleasure. Freddie and Clive have been on the show before, way back on episode 9 or so, but this was the first time I had ever been able to sit down and just focus on how Nick and Clive got together to produce the early versions of the Ugly Inside and how it's grown over the past 3 years is truly and honor. What started off as something being produced in a living room over 30 years ago has grown into something heard, seen and known all over the world. The Ugly Inside was one of my very first interactions with any fan site or channel and I can't explain to you how influential it was in getting the courage to start this podcast.

The Ugly Inside is available on many different platforms and they are all listed below. I suggest you follow along on the platforms you use and make sure to subscribe to the YouTube Channel, which will get you access to the FanCams, match previews, opposition previews, predicted 11's and more, along with videos from their partner podcast, The Saints FC Podcast with John Bailey and Tom Parker.

In addition to being able to chat with the guys from the Ugly Inside, I had the pleasure to speak to two long-time members of the London Saints, a group of fans who have worked together to support Saints through the ups and downs for 40 years. From the lower leagues to Europe and Wembley, they have been there and have a number of fantastic stories (most of which are shared off the record only).

The chance to sit down with Robbie and Gary, kinda on the spot for them so special thanks, was not something I was expecting. I have so many questions, and we definitely didn't have a chance to answer them all here, but this was about them and the history of London Saints and what they stand for.

We’re coming to the end of the last international break of the season, and it’s driven me to new lows. We were asked about the most attractive Saints’ manager of all time, and I took that and decided to make a “March Manager Madness Bracket” to find out who the sexiest manager in the Premier League is… If you are reading this sometime before 5:00pm on Tuesday then you should still be able to vote in round 3, otherwise be on the lookout for the business end of the competition and have your say.

Before I could come up with anything less spectacular than that, Aidan Small grabbed me and we had a chat about everything from the appointment of Mark Hughes, to the importance of Charlie Austin coming back from injury and the symptoms of Pellegrino that are still plaguing the squad. We also find out why I love Ryan Bertrand and much more on this episode of the show.

Aidan Small is on Twitter @MrAidanSmall and @FreshSaints, and you can read writing from him and others on his talented writing team by visiting freshsaints.com. I strongly encourage you to check it out, you’ll be supporting a Southampton local, an aspiring journalist, and a fantastic person with each visit to the site and every time you share an article.

This is the last show before I head off to London and Southampton over the next week+. I’ll bring you a special show next week from London, and a very special interview the week after when I’ll be flying home and suffering the worst Jet Lag I’ve very experienced (at least I think that’s what it will be).

Lastly, if you haven’t listened to the Saints FC Podcast for this week, you need to. Matt Le Tissier on stage answering questions… here’s the link to the tweet containing the episode. And don’t forget about the Total Saints Podcast either… alright, enough from me.

Episode 63 went from being completely planned (twice) to over-crowded, to a bit shorter than normal, all within the space of a week. In the end, though, I’m more than happy with how it came together and thrilled to have gotten the chance to connect with so many wonderful people in such a short time.

The span of the last 7 days (I’m writing this about 7 days and 3 hours after Pellegrino was sacked), I’ve done more guest podcasts and TV appearances than in the past 2 years combined. Add to that I was on the road for work, and sharing a room with a friend of mine (who loves me plenty, but has little patience for me getting up at 4:00am to edit or stay up until midnight to record). Nonetheless, this week we have two separate, shorter interviews, and 4 voicemail messages sent in from listeners reacting to the hiring of Hughes and the win in FA Cup Quarter-final clash against Wigan.

The way the show is structured this week is a bit different. First we’ll have a listen to some fan opinions on the hiring of Hughes, then speak with Saints’ fan and fellow Podcaster Dave Lee (on Twitter @AODavelee) about how he became a fan, the season and the hiring of Hughes. Originally Dave and I were supposed to watch the Swansea City match and record a full episode with all the normal stuff while we were at a conference in Southern California. But, when the Swansea match was postponed and our cup match moved to Sunday, we had to settle for an abbreviated chat. We talked for much longer, with no mics around, and enjoyed a few beverages as well (getting ready for the trip to England, in my opinion).

I also had the chance to chat with a podcaster and presenter I respect very much. Jim Salveson hosts and writers “On the Left Side: The Alternative Football Show” along with Ant McGinley, for Abrupt Audio.I spoke with Jim a bit about his show (iTunes link here) and about his thoughts on our new manager Mark Hughes. Lastly, I was lucky enough to get a voicemail from Dan Jarvis (I won’t lie, I actually asked him to send it in) with his thoughts on the Wigan match… it’s perhaps the most concise and on-point any guest has ever been.. Maybe it’s because I wasn’t there asking him a ton of questions. Whatever, though, he and his dad will be on at some point in the future, and I’m truly looking forward to it!

I also joined The Independent Republic of Soccer Podcast, with Conal McCourt (Twitter at @Conall_Mcc) to discuss Hughes, Pellegrino, the season and more. Check it out here.

Overall, this week has been a blast, but

This week was a weird one. We were absolutely torn apart at Newcastle, as Saints conceded more goals than they had shots on target. The performance was gutless and it caused the likes of Freddie from The Ugly Inside, Adam Leitch of the Southern Daily Echo, and Adam Blackmore of BBC Radio Solent to begin to turn on the entire situation. All three have tried to remain neutral in their analysis and judgment, and although they have been critical in the past, this match really did it.

The same goes for me. I generally try not to be as harsh or critical as some, but this weekend put me over the edge. The manager had to go, and he did! But, Pellegrino didn’t make his way out until my guest and I were done recording, the episode had been edited, and was pretty much set to go out. Nevermind, that, though, I don’t mind doing a little extra work in this case.

My guest this week is Josh, who runs @thesaintsfcpage on Instagram and @SaintsFcPage on Twitter. Josh has the distinct disadvantage of speaking to me after a terrible performance from the squad and the day before Mauricio Pellegrino was sacked. This means that we were at peak frustration levels and as a result the mood can seem a bit dour. But, despite my spirits being lifted by the prospect of a new manager keeping Saints in the Premier League, I know that there are many aspects of the club that are still in trouble and need addressing. Since Josh and I talk about some of them as well, we keep most of the conversation in the episode.

So, as always, be sure to follow along, with us and the Josh, and enjoy and share the show.

This week I’m joined by Rob Adam Evans to discuss the scoreless draw that took place at St. Mary’s against relegation rivals Stoke City on Saturday. Despite the storm that blew in and brought snow to much of England in the days leading up to the match, volunteers and the staff at Saints gave it their all to make sure fans could get safely to and from the stadium.

Rob and I didn’t talk all that much about the snow or the walkways, but we did look at the match and discuss the few positives that were there, the impact it had on our standing in the table, and what we need to do going forward in order to remain in the Premier League.

Rob was fantastic to chat with, and I hope you enjoy the hour or so of our two hour conversation about the team and life in general that made it into the podcast. Rob is on Twitter @RobAdamEvans and writes for @FreshSaints. You can find his articles and many more at freshsaints.com, and if you haven’t done so yet I encourage you to check it out. The articles there are top notch.

Michael Kurn is Southampton born and bred. He always wanted a career in professional football and he’s created one for himself as a presenter and reporter for the Premier League, working on studio shows such as Premier League FanZone and bringing pre and post match interviews with players and managers to many of our TV screens. Michael also does a lot of work with charities and other sporting organizations. From Hampshire Cricket, to England Hockey and the Olympic and Paralympic games, Michael has been around world doing what he loves.

Michael and I discuss his journey and career, as well as his current speaking engagements and upcoming book by the same title “Desire Dream Vision.” Michael is truly a motivated and inspirational character. From his positive attitude to his work with charitable organizations, just listening to him will inspire you. We also talk about Saints, the draw at Burnley, and what the rest of the season looks like for Saints as the club strive to stay in the Premier League and make a cup run.

You can get in touch with Michael on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, or visit his website michaelkurn.com and get a better idea about the book at the Desire Dream Vision website at desiredreamvision.com.

It was truly an honor for me to get to know Michael a bit better, to help share his story and to get the perspective on Saints of someone who constantly talks with ex-players, coaches, pundits, and fans around the globe.

I hope you enjoy it. Links to Michael’s social media and websites are below, just in case the embedded links above don’t work for you. Also, be on the lookout for Michael’s book when it is released in September of 2018.

This weekend I had the pleasure of speaking with Kirsty Whitton(@Whitton_8), midfielder and Captain of the Southampton Women’s Football Club. After Kirsty helped lead her side to a 4-0 victory on Sunday afternoon in the semi-final of the Fa Hampshire Cup she sat back and chatted with me about her career, coming to the South Coast, her goals for the season, and more. We also took some listener questions (thank you to everyone who sent them in!).

Kirsty is sponsored by Keila Tucker (@keilatucker), but the club is always looking for new sponsors, as the players and coaches often have to pay their own way to the matches, for training, etc. If you are interested in sponsoring a player, coach, or advertising, you can visit the contact page on the website, or email the club secretary (email below).

A special thank you to the Southampton Women’s Football Club, Lee Calendar, and Kirsty for making this happen. It’s a pleasure to be able to work with such a fantastic organization.

I had the pleasure of chatting with Lucy Highnett (@lucyhighnett on Twitter and Instagram) for this week’s podcast. To be completely honest, I’ve wanted to have Lucy on the show for some time, but we couldn’t find a time that worked for both of us. But, finally, with her PhD studies wrapping up, this weekend worked. I was excited to hear her perspective on the team and what I thought was some momentum being built, and then we played Liverpool, with 5 ex-Saints in the squad (all of whom played in the match). Even after going into the break down 2-0, but having played a decent 45 minutes, I was feeling okay. Then the team came out flat in the second half and rarely looked as though they were going to threaten LFC’s lead.

At the end of the weekend Saints are back in 18th place. 18th. Relegation Zone. The board is silent. Pellegrino still employed. No matter, though, because the conversation I had with Lucy was by far the highpoint of my weekend where Saints are concerned. Even though the message may be grimm, I think it’ll come across well. So, I hope you enjoy the episode, and if you do please let us know be getting in contact and/or sharing the show with others.

This week I’m joined by a wide variety of guests from around the world to help cover a range of topics related to the sport of football and the Southampton Football Club.

First up I spoke with Andrew Coulton, a Baggies fan originally from Burton-on-Trent but now living in New Hampshire in the USA, about our most recent match against West Brom, his history with the club, coaching a former Saint, writing, the legacy left by Cyrille Regis, and more. We easily could have spent more than a full episode talking about all of it, but we kept it to a reasonable time given we still had more to cover. Andy is a passionate, caring, and knowledgeable man who understands the connection fans share and what makes the relationship between us and the football so special. I am truly grateful for the time I was able to spend with him. The link to one of his recent articles on Cyrille Regis is below. If you haven’t read it yet, I highly recommend it!

As we have done previously, after the transfer window closes, it’s nice to get a range opinions on what’s gone on at the club. So, I took some calls from fans around the world and asked for their opinions on the window, the current state of the club, and what needs to change moving forward. I was overwhelmed with the number of people willing to call in to talk, but I was only able to fit 5 interviews on the show. I appreciate everyone's willingness to chat and share their time with me. The links to the Twitter handles of each caller, along with Andy and his article, are directly below. I hope you enjoy the episode and thank you for listening!

Ben Hernandez-Stroud, the man behind The Archers Road End blog joined me this week to discuss our FA Cup 4th Round victory over Watford. The win pushes Southampton’s unbeaten run to 4, but we’re still in the relegation zone and I personally am somewhat unconvinced. The team looked good for large parts of the match, but some of the decisions made by the manager cause me to question what’s going on, even after I heard his explanation of tactics.

Ben and I talk tactics, social media, writing, life, and the outlook for Saints FC over the next few matches. Ben provides some true insight and clarity into what is a murky and somewhat bleak outlook. I hope you enjoy it, and please be sure to share the episode on Social Media, if you are into that sort of thing.

We got a point, against Tottenham no less. The same team that absolutely trashed Saints just a few weeks ago was held largely at bay by Saints on Sunday in a hard fought match which saw each team walk away with a point.

That point is about the only positive thing to come out of Southampton this week. No new signings, we fell into the relegation zone, and things seemed to be getting more bleak by the minute. But, with the performance on Sunday, maybe there is more than just a little hope that we could be playing Premier League football come next August.

Joining me to discuss the match and try and put it all in context this week is Allen Gunn, who’s on Twitter @a_gunzy and who often writes and Tweets for @StMarysMusings. Gunzy also writes and does media for Myerscough Basketball Academy (@My_bball on Twitter), so feel free to check it out if you are into that sort of thing.

Allen was nice enough to speak with me immediately after the Tottenham match, before I left town for work for the week.... I think I fell asleep editing the podcast, so hopefully it’s all good, but if not, it’s all my fault. I always enjoy talking to Allen, and I hope you enjoy the show.

Intro Song-

I feel like we’ve seen this, heard this, said this, and written this before, several times, and I’m afraid we’re going to run out of new ways to say, “we sat too deep once we had the lead,” and “where is our leadership on the pitch?” And, “what is Pellegrino doing with his substitutions?”

Luckily, my guest for this week’s show, Alex Hammond (@sainthammond on Twitter), writer for Read Southampton and La Liga News), speaks 3 languages, so at the very least he brought some variety.

Alex and I break down the woeful second half performance against Watford, the manager’s decision making, take listener questions, discuss Alex’s writing and fan history, look at how Saints will HANDle that last minute goal from Watford, and more.I hope you enjoy the conversation, and ple ase be sure to check out Alex’s writing- links to the sites are above, and his match report for the Watford match can be found here.

Quick note this episode is long. It’s my fault and I apologize. My illness caused me to lose track of what was happening, so please excuse the meandering questioning at times during the interviews. 2018 is beginning a lot like 2017 ended.

Episode 53 marks the beginning of the second year of the podcast. We made it 52 straight weeks with an episode. I’m proud of that, but it wouldn’t be a thing, or mean anything, without all of you taking part in, listening to and/or giving feedback about the show. Still a lot to learn and improve on, but this journey has been fantastic so far and I’ve learned a ton from so many of you. Thanks for all of it, and hopefully the team and the podcasts continue to improve (and learn from our mistakes).

This week I’m joined by Cameran Alavi, a Saints fan based on the East Coast of the United States. Cameran is a coach and football (yes, we call it soccer) enthusiast. From MLS, to the USMNT to Saints and even a Manchester United connection, he’s in it and on it. We chatted for way too long about the holiday fixtures and what’s going on at the club, and Cameran provided some valuable insight into his chat with Ralph Krueger a few years ago. If you don’t already follow Cameran on Twitter you should be sure to do so @camtotheyams.

I’m also joined by Harry Holder (@harryhsfc) of The Saints Report to discuss Saints’ 1-0 win over Fulham at Craven Cottage in the 3rd Round of the Fa Cup. Wechat the outstanding numbers of traveling fans, the chants, the play, the win and more.

With all that said, I hope you enjoy the episode and I look forward to next week. Watford away in the Premier League, and we need points.

Episode 52 marks the end of the first year of the podcast. 52 weeks, 52 episodes, more than 60 guests and countless hours of audio. It’s been a fantastic experience for more than one reason. Thank you to everyone who has supported in one way or another. This wouldn’t be anything without you.

For episode 52 I am away with family. This episode was recorded a few weeks ago with Simon Parker, head coach of the Southampton Women’s Football Club. We talk about Simon’s journey to being the manager, his philosophy on managing the club, the struggles associated with earning promotion in two straight season and fighting for the league lead, and we take some questions from his players (which he didn’t know was happening). I hope you enjoy the chat, and I look forward to speaking with you all again in the new year.

A Special thanks to Simon Parker for giving me his time, and to the club for allowing me access to their players and coaches this season. You can follow Simon on Twitter @1swparker. Give him some encouragement as he leads the club into battle each week.

First off, if you are listening to this instead of being with those you love, for whatever reason, consider pausing the episode and calling them, or going in the other room to see them, or texting them or whatever you can do to let them know you love them. That’s what this time of year is all about.

Before Jack and I went on our respective holiday shenanigans, we decided to discuss Southampton, our current form, and the issues we are having at the moment. We discuss everything from poor player performances to manager, the board, recruiting and more. I think you’ll enjoy it, and I’d love to hear about it if you do.

If you re a Twitter user and don’t follow Saints News and Views, you should. It’s @SaintsfcViews and it is well worth a follow to keep up on all things Saints.

We spoke about a Saints fan, Mark Taylor, at the end of the episode. Give him a follow and send him a messge of suport on Twitter. You can find him @Saint_Mark_211.

What a week for the club...2 losses, 0 points, and a -4 goal difference after Claude Puel’s Foxes came to St. Mary’s and ran us ragged, and then we made the trip to Stamford Bridge, only to lose on a cheaply given free kick that Forster failed to get down and block.

There’s truthfully not a lot to say, other than the performance against Leicester was unacceptable, and we need to start getting some points, now. The manger shook up the lineup against Chelsea, and spoke of player commitment to the club. It will be interesting to see who gets gametime and who finds themselves on the bench or completely left out going forward.

Joining me this week, for episode 50, is Chris Rann (@crstig). Chris runs the website http://georgeweahscousin.com/ and you should make sure to visit from time to time, just to check out the funny and interesting takes he has on the club. It’s worth a visit, even if it’s just for a laugh or two. Additionally, make sure to check back towards the end of the season for the Ali Dia awards. Possibly the best thing on the internet. Special thanks for Chris for joining me again to talk Saints and give his take and opinion on what’s going on at the club.

Phil Drake, author of To Be A Saint, joined me this week to talk about writing, his new book and the recent happenings with the club. It was a real honor to have him on the show and to get the chance to talk about the history of the club through the eyes of a fan from 1976 to present. This book is almost 20 years in the making, and you can tell. It’s a fantastic story, and it’s beautifully told.

Phil has written a bunch of other books as well, both fiction and nonfiction, so do be sure to check them out!

If you’d like to get a copy of To Be A Saint you can do so on Amazon. If you’d like a shot at a free copy, make sure to retweet the pinned tweet on my page (here as of 2:00pm Tuesday, 12/12) and follow both Phil (@pdrakeofficial) and I for a chance to win.

Oh, and I also had a conversation with my very best Arsenal Friend Josh on this episode. He’s been my best friend since Kindergarten and most of this is his fault. Not the highest level football conversation we’ve ever had, but I still enjoyed it, and I hope you do too… I caught him and his son recording some stuff as well, and I left some of it in there, even though the kid doesn’t agree with me being a Saints’ fan. Anyway, special thanks to Josh for being there for me for the past 25 years and always providing the encouragement I needed… and also, screw you, Josh, for introducing my to what it’s like to suffer heartache and devastation on a seemingly infinite basis… Josh tweets utter shite, so I’m not posting his account.

To Be A Saint

In a week where Saints’ fans had both one of their longest and shortest away trips if the season, I’m joined by Aydin Osman to help sort out what to make of our performances against Manchester City and Bournemouth. It was a pleasure to speak with Aydin, and although the technology and Skype gods did their absolute best to foil our plans, we managed to talk about a range of things, from our recent team and individual performances, to Pep’s pep talk with Nathan Redmond, a Sterling strike, the possible penalty at Bournemouth and much more (don’t worry, I did cut out the 15 minutes or so we spend talking about internet providers and TV licenses… which I didn’t even know existed). Anyway, I think you’ll enjoy it… and don’t worry, there isn’t an overwhelming amount of stoppage time on this episode. Enjoy it.

About a month ago Aydin wrote an article looking back at the year since we played at Inter. It’s a worthwhile read, and the link to it, and the Read Southampton Facebook, Twitter, and Website are all below. Be sure to like, follow, etc, to keep up on your Saints’ news.

Well how about that? We all know Everton are garbage, and it’s not just former Captain Ron that thinks so. But, no matter what you think of the blue side of Merseyside, you have to give some credit to Saints for their performance on the pitch on Sunday. In the immediate aftermath of that bare-bottom spanking we gave Everton, I spoke with Jamie Grant of @TheSaintsReport about the match, mental health, and the upcoming trips to Manchester City and Bournemouth. It’s not often that Jamie steps out from behind the Instagram filter, but it’s always a pleasure when he does.

Special thanks to Jamie for having the courage to speak about his ongoing battle with depression and mental health. I know it’s hard to speak about, but the only way we can change the stigma surrounding mental illness is to speak out about it.

This week is pretty special. I got to see a few of my good friends for the weekend, and, currently, my family and I are at Disneyland, the happiest place on earth. It’s a good thing, too. I consumed so much alcohol Friday night and Saturday that I remember very little of the Saints performance against LFC. And, what little I do remember is being replaced by memories of my kids screaming with excitement at the sight of princesses, wild rides, or spinning teacups. I also know that this episode is pretty special.

This weekend I spoke with Millie Peak, #1 for the Southampton Women’s Football Club. Millie and I spoke on Friday evening (pre-alcohol) about her career, being a goalkeeper, the team’s recent form and more. It was a pleasure to get to pick her brain about the game and get her thoughts on it all. I think you’ll enjoy it.

Millie is sponsored by Dosanjh Convenience Stores (link), but the club is always looking for new sponsors, as they players and coaches often have to pay their own way to the matches, for training, etc. If you are interested in sponsoring a player, coach, or advertising, you can visit the contact page on the website, or email the club secretary (email below).

A special thank you to the Southampton Women’s Football Club, Lee Calendar, and Millie for making this happen. It’s a pleasure to be able to work with such a fantastic organization.

This week I had the opportunity to speak with Greg Baker, head of the Saints Foundation about serving the communities in and around Southampton through his work at the Saints Foundation. As always, we start with being a fan and work towards his current position as head of the Foundation. From there we look at the different projects the Foundation are currently focused on, how it’s changed since its inception in 2001, how new and current projects are developed, how you can get involved, and, most importantly, why he and his team do the work they do. If you didn’t already think the Saints Foundation was doing wonderful things in the city, I think you will after listening to this.

The links to get involved and follow the Saints Foundation are below, so be sure to check them out, whether you thought you heard of a program that would benefit you or someone you know, or there is some way you would like to help.

Well, well, well. Here we are again, slightly bitter, disappointed, frustrated, yet somehow very happy to be here, talking with yet another great guest for this week’s podcast.

This week, after a disappointing match against Burley, where one of our own fans, Sam Vokes, scored against us to take all three points, I’m joined by Jake Hughes (@JJHughes_ on Twitter). Jake is the editor of St. Mary’s Musings (you can also find them on Twitter @StMarysMusings) in addition to writing about MMA for various outlets. From his story of becoming a Saints’ fan, to writing about the club, listening to metal and interviewing some of the biggest names in MMA, I think you will enjoy our chat. Be sure to give both Jake and St. Mary’s Musings a follow on Twitter and check out the website, both are well worth your time!

This week I am delighted to be joined by Matt Beling of the WeAreSouthampton Page on Instagram. You hear me talk about him every week but this week I got to talk to him, not just about him. It’s always a pleasure to chat with Matt and, as always, he was great. We talk about his page and some of the changes that have gone on since last February, as well as his trip down to Brighton to catch Saints’ 1-1 draw against the newest south coast team to join the Premier League. It’s not all rainbows, as Matt and I give an honest opinion of the match, the manager, and the team.

I hope you enjoy the show and, as always, thank you for listening. Be sure to check out Matt’s page- https://www.instagram.com/wearesouthampton/?hl=en if you haven’t done so already.

This week some pretty good things happened. Saints got three points, we scored from open play, The Astros made the World Series for the first time since 2005, and the Dynamo got a home playoff match by finishing 4th in the conference. Overall a pretty good sporting weekend from my perspective.

It was made even better by getting to chat with Owen Hawes, @Owen_TheSaints on Twitter. Owen writes a blog- owenthesaintsblog.wordpress.com- and contributes to the 90min football YouTube Channel (his most recent video can be found here). In addition to blogging and vlogging, he’s a creative writing and drama student in Kingston. I very much enjoyed getting his perspective on the match and the team, and also appreciate him giving me so much of his time. We talk Southampton vs. West Brom, the Boufal goal, his reaction, team selection and more. I hope you enjoy the show! Be sure give Owen and 90min a follow on Twitter and visit owenthesaintsblog.wordpress.com for more of Owen’s writing.

What to make of the return of football to St. Mary’s after the international break… we changed the system, we scored, we equalized twice and came away with a point, but we also fell behind twice to newly promoted, tight-wad Newcastle. There are definitely cracks in the team that need addressing, and supporters are becoming increasingly more worried about the lack of points on the board given the schedule we’ve had to this point.

To help me break down the match against Newcastle this week is Richard Brereton, editor of the @Saints_Panel. He was a joy to have on the show again and I wish we could have talked for longer. But, there is more to life than recording the podcast… at least that’s what my wife tells me. You can reach Richard on Twitter @RichardBrer and you can follow the Southampton Panel @Saints_Panel.

I think I made the most of my international break. I spent some time with family, ruined a family picture, jumped from a moving vehicle, and a bunch of other things I’m not willing to commit to writing. If you followed my Instagram story I’d like to apologize for what you may have seen.

I also used the break as an opportunity to talk with three different podcast hosts about their podcasts, Saints, and our upcoming match against Newcastle. First off, I spoke with James George (@mrjamesgeorge on Twitter), who hosts the the @saintsfanspod along with Marc Higgins (@MarcTR4). We talked about James and his family moving to California, what his life was like growing up playing football, doing reality TV, working at TalkSport, and winding up running two podcasts here in the US. If you haven’t listened to them yet you really should give them a shot. Links to iTunes -->SaintsFansPodcast, Sports Gambling Podcast- Twitter is @eplshow

After that I spoke with James Nash (@james1nash), one of the hosts of the @Post2Post_Pod, a new football podcast based in Southampton. He along with Connor Dunford and 2 other co-hosts, bring you a weekly football discussion touching almost all the Premier League teams, with a focus on Southampton, West Ham, Chelsea and Manchester United (the hosts' supported teams). It’s the general football discussion you want without the mainstream media influence. Give them a follow on Twitter and Facebook, check out http://www.post2post.co.uk/ and listen and subscribe today! iTunes

Lastly, I was joined by Alex (@alexpicc6), 1/2 of The Exiled Geordies Podcast (@NUFC_podcast) to talk about our upcoming match with NUFC. He and his co-host Brad bring a lively podcast covering all things NUFC to listeners each week. If there’s a Geordie in your life please turn them on to the show, it’s of high quality and I really enjoyed chatting with Alex about their nightmare owner, our recent history and the upcoming match. Find them wherever you get your podcasts. iTunes Facebook.

This week I am joined by TWO, yes TWO guests. The first is Chris Hughes, site expert at Saints Marching. He is a Saint loving journalist who brings passion and professionalism to his job and the team. I enjoyed chatting with him and, at least partly because the Stoke match was what it was, we don’t really go play-by through the game, but we cover it all and I think you’ll enjoy it. Links to Chris’ personal Twitter account, the Saints Marching account, and the Saints Marching website are all below. I encourage you to check them out when you have a chance (or now, now is also good). *Note- I recorded this interview on Sunday morning, as signs of illness were becoming apparent. I was drinking a large amount of tea during the interview to try and keep my voice from cracking, but it’s fairly obvious I was sick… I apologize for that. Also,I’m more sick today.

My second guest this week is Kirsty Bell. We’re talking with her because she is the Captain of the Southampton Women’s Football Club, but she’s really so much more than that. Kirsty was kind enough to give me some of her time to talk about her career and life, as well as the double-winning season of last year at the SWFC. After recording she and the rest of SWFC squad went on to beat their Southampton rivals (Southampton Girls and Ladies) by a score of 3-1, with Kirsty scoring 2 goals after coming on as a substitute. We wish her and the rest of the squad continued success and look forward to speaking with other members of the team in the months to come. Links for the team and Kirsty are below. They are worth checking out and I encourage anyone in the area to check out a match if you are around on a Sunday afternoon. The ladies truly appreciate your support. Also, if you are interested in sponsoring a player or coach, or purchasing an advertisement to help support the club, please contact the club secretary, Amanda Burroughs at secretary@southamptonwfc.co.uk and let her know. Next match: Sunday, October 8, Away to Winchester City Flyers in the FA Cup 3rd Round.

Dan James (@TheDanJames) is a regular guy… if by regular guy you mean an absolute stud who hasn’t missed an away day in 3 years, who coaches and works for the Saints Foundation and who appears almost every week on the Ugly Inside Fan Cams. Dan was kind enough to find time to chat with me after the ManU match about all sorts of things. We kept the recorded conversation to Dan's background and work, Saints’ latest match, the issues we are facing, listener questions and a bit more. I think you'll enjoy it. Dan is involved in lots of things, and those things are really good. So, links to those really good things are below. Check them out!

This week Saints went to Selhurst Park and refused to go Dutch, taking all three points from a Crystal Palace side playing their first match under new manager Roy Hodgson. Saints played well for most of the match, with good performances all the way up the spine of the team. I’m joined by Blake Hampton to discuss the match and take some listener questions. You can find Blake on Twitter @SFCBlake and you can get his writing @TheSaintsReport and @EIFsoccer. Blake is fantastic follow, and his writing often takes an interesting angle on what goes in within and around teams… he might even coach an academy team, but that’s none of my business. Anyway, we discuss our match against Palace, from the Davis goal to the Lemina challenges, from Forster’s reaction saves to Hoedt’s long, raking, beautiful passes and we also take some listener questions.

Finally, the international break is over. I was anxiously awaiting the end of the break and very much looking forward to the return of the Southampton Football Club… and then we played Watford. I read about it online before I actually saw it, and man was it tough to watch…I spoke with Dan Hargraves, who’s on Twitter @dhargravessfc and who’s YouTube Channel can be found here about it all. If you haven’t subscribed to his channel yet be sure to do so. You won’t be disappointed. Dan and I talked about his Vlogging and writing, as well as Watford, the manager, the transfer window and more. I really enjoyed chatting with Dan and I hope you find our conversation to be both pleasant and intriguing.

The international break can be a time of boredom, but, luckily for us, the first half of it was filled with the final week of the summer transfer window. Depending on your perspective, that could make it better or worse. I, for one, am glad the window is over. VVD is ours, we’ve reinforced the backline and added to the midfield. However, we didn’t add to the attacking third. The initial results are in and, for this episode, we’re going to talk to 5 different people and get their grades on the Saints’ summer transfer business.

I’d like to thank all of my guests for their time and effort. It’s not always easy for people to do this, and I’m truly blessed to have had the opportunity to speak with each of them. Give them a follow on their various social media platforms.

This week I had the pleasure of speaking with Nashville SC’s newest intern… he also goes to Belmont University, writes for The Saints Report, EIF Soccer, Breaking the Lines and SB Nation and answers all of the my texts. His name is Christian Candler and you can find him @_candler on Twitter. We discussed the Huddersfield match, which might possibly be the best 0-0 you’ve seen in some time. We also discuss the players we think will be here at the end of the transfer market, the international break, and talk about animals, Emma Watson and more.

I was also joined by Harry Holder, @harryhsfc on Twitter. We talked about the Wolves match and our disappointing exit in our first test in the EFL Cup. Harry writes for @TheSaintsReport and was gracious enough to come on the show semi-last minute to fill me/you/us in on the match.

As always, the guests make the show, and both Christian and Harry are great. Be sure to give them a follow and read their stuff.

The two articles discussed in this episode are linked below. Enjoy.

Harry- Wolves Match Report

Christian- Jogo Bonito: Can Soccer Unite a Divided World

My guest this week is Jack from Saints News and Views, on Twitter @SaintsfcViews. Jack has been running the account since its creation in November of 2012. Jack and talked about numerous aspects of the team, from our performance in the season opener against Swansea City, to our needs, wants, and desires in the transfer window. We also took some listener questions (thank you all, by the way) and, after all was said and done (even though I’m not sure all was actually said), after we called it a day and I edited and got the podcast ready for distribution… KL sold the club, we made a signing, and a bunch of other stuff happened… oh well!

I’d like to thank Jack for taking the time to chat with me and share his news and views on all things Saints FC. I really enjoyed and I hope you do too!

Don’t forget to like, subscribe, follow, review, rate, hope, pray and hit the target… or something.

My guest this week is Ewan Campbell, on Twitter @EwanCampbell1NI. I first saw him/heard him on @TheUglyInside’s year-end season review last year. Since then we’ve been working to try and find a time to get him on the podcast. He put up with a ton of crap from me, from audio issues to my general lack of any ability to actually host a podcast...Anyway, Ewan deserves a lot of credit for this episode and I promise that next time he is on I will do better. I really enjoyed our chat about the team, VVD, pre-season and the board, and I hope you do as well.

This week I had the opportunity to speak with Ben Hernandez-Stroud who owns and writes The Archers Road End blog, which you can also find on Twitter (@ArchersRoadEnd), and Facebook (facebook.com/archersroadend/). Ben works in social media, lives in London, and has been a fan of the Southampton Football club since childhood.

Ben’s blog is a bit different than some in that it isn’t updated with every rumor or even with each passing week. He takes on large swaths of time with each post, which means he has to balance length and detail with readability. Something he does with great deftness, in my opinion. I encourage you to give him a follow and give his writing a read each time it comes out.

On this episode Ben and I discuss Ben’s history with the club, his blog, the questions surrounding Southampton’s potential ownership sale, the current transfer window, the match against St. Etienne and more.

I spoke with Tayo Adetoye in mid-June, right around the time Claude Pue was released. When we spoke, I was most interested in his story and experience. I wanted to know more about how he became a fan of the Southampton Football Club, what drew him to pick the Saints over all of the other possibilities in World Football. What became clear as we spoke was Tayo’s passion for the club. I hope you enjoy the interview, and I hope that in this time of relative uncertainty with our captain, the board, and so on, you can take some solace in knowing that we, as fans, can support one another, and that we can share in Tayo’s passion for the club.

This week I had the pleasure of chatting with Lee Callender- @stateofplaylee- Assistant Manager and Goalkeeping Coach for Southampton Women’s FC @SotonWomensFC about a number of things, from his role at SWFC, their double winning season last year, Women’s football in the UK and Hampshire area, Saints FC and more. I really enjoyed the time I got to spend with Lee via Skype and hope you enjoy the conversation as well.

This week’s show is a bit different. There is no talk of tactics, formations, or transfers. Instead I had the opportunity to speak with Kiko Rodriguez, @KikoRod9, who is, among other things, a founding member of @DRNSport (he also happens to be JRod’s dad, so, yeah). In light of the article on Steven Caulker a few weeks ago, Kiko and I spoke about mental health, mostly about how it is viewed in sport, specifically football, and how our battles with depression impacted our lives. I also asked a bit about JRod, but that’s not the focus of the episode.

If you are looking for a more football/Saints focused episode, we’ll have that next week (or last week, if you missed it). There wasn’t much happening this week, and some things are just bigger than what goes on inside the lines or on the training ground. I hope you understand.

This week I had the opportunity to again speak with Aidan Small of Fresh Saints, you can find him online at @MrAidanSmall, @FreshSaints or his website, freshsaints.com. We talked about the manager, the departure of JRod, the signing of Bednarek and answered some listener questions. I was also joined by Christopher Lash, on Twitter @rightbankwarsaw, to talk more about Bednarek and see what someone who lives in Poland and engages with Polish football sees and expects from him. Chris runs a website (rightbankwarsaw.com), so be sure to check it out. Also, be sure to give his podcast “Right Bank Warsaw” a listen, available on iTunes and Soundcloud. On this episode, about 38-39 minutes in, he and his co-hosts discuss Bednarek and how he fits into their team of the season.

I really enjoyed chatting with him a great deal and I think you’ll find our conversation interesting and informative. Jem was a fantastic guest and went along with whatever I threw his way. We talked about the manager, the Polish defender we’re rumored to be signing, the schedule and answered some listener questions as well.

Be sure to give them both a follow so you don’t miss out. Aydin and I talked everything from pondering Virgil and LFC’s tapping, to Claud napping and a possible sacking, it’s all here. We even have a bit of a takeover talk and a new theme song thanks to the suggesting of one Chris Rann.

Southampton is becoming a truly global club (this has been happening for some time, but I'm slow to this, as I am to most things). A quick check of Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook reveals accounts claiming to support the club from all around the globe. Accounts from Nigeria, Argentina, USA, and Mexico all boast hundreds or even thousands of followers. This week I spoke with Bastian who manages the @Saints_Chile accounts on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. With little more than speculation on issues surrounding the manger and potential replacements, we focused more on him, the accounts and the personal side of things. We discussed the season and what it’s like to support from Chile, and other issues surrounding the club. I hope you enjoy our conversation and be sure to give Bastian and @Saints_Chile a follow on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. All the links are below.

I was joined this week by Josh Kingdom, @JoshuaKingdom02 on Twitter, who, among other things, writes for @SaintsMarching_. This time of year is a bit weird for fans, myself included. The season is over, we’re uncertain as to who else will be leaving, staying, coming, or going around the club, and yet we’re trying to keep everyone up-to-date with what’s happening. That’s part of what makes Josh’s article so interesting. Amid all the speculation, he’s put together a “wishlist” of players who would fit our system if we lose players and would strengthen our squad if, as Les Reed suggested, we don’t sell everyone this summer. Be sure to check out his articles here and here, give him a follow on Twitter, and enjoy the show.

Also, if you haven’t checked out the player reviews on the Ugly Inside YouTube channel, be sure to do so by clicking here and subscribing… they even have Pablo Zabaleta on an episode (the Jack Stephens episode).

It’s been some years since I graduated from college (9.5, if you’re wondering). I still remember the feeling of completing my degree while also knowing I had another year and half of school ahead of me in another part of the state. Knowing there was life after college, and that I was going to have live it, scared me a little. All of that came rushing back to me this week when I talked with Harry Stack -on Twitter @Harrry1994. We talked about Saints, how he became a fan even though he lived in Luton, the manager, the changes, and the future of many players at the club. Overall, a fairly lengthy, enjoyable discussion. Be sure to check out Harry’s work on, and give a follow to, the @SOTON_PLPanel, if you haven’t done so already.

Tim Marshall- @timjmarshall- on Twitter, joined me from London to talk about Saints vs LFC, what it’s like to follow Saints from London, the season in general, and much more. I'm always honored to chat with people who are passionate about the club, and I can honestly say, that I am impressed each and every week with what my guests bring to the conversation. Tim took time to educate me on a number of things about London, football, and more, but some of it didn't make it into the show. That being said, I enoyed all aspects of our conversation, and I hope you enjoy the portion that made it on the podcast.

Our chat came the morning of a 5:30am kickoff for me here on the West Coast, and the morning after my wife’s 29th birthday (she’s forever 29, just ask her). So, couple the tantalizing first half with about 45 minutes of sleep and no coffee and you can only imagine how I was feeling coming off the match. Luckily Tim brought his A-game to the show and we had a good chat and I left feeling good about the point and our defensive performance. I hope you enjoy it!

I read a ton of writing from kids...teenagers. Most of it is atrocious. It’s the same mistakes, the same analogies, the same evidence, over and over and over again. I can say, honestly, I don’t enjoy most of what I read from teenagers. But, Ed Carter may have changed my mind. Reading his writing over the past month or so, I had no idea Ed was under the age of 21. But, he is. The fact you can’t tell that from his writing, though, is why he is on the podcast. Ed Carter (@EdCarterRS on Twitter) is a new writer for @ReadSouthampton. We talked on Sunday, after the Hull match, but before the rumors of CP’s exit became rampant. We had some fun and I hope you enjoy our chat. Be sure to give Ed a follow and give his work(s) a read. We talk about one of his articles specifically, and that link is here.

L1minus10, otherwise known as Glen de la Cour, joined me on this week's episode to talk about his blog, his history as a fan, what's it's like to be a part of 3 generations of Saints' season ticket holders, and much more. Glen was fantastic to talk to and the most difficult part about this episode was cutting out some of our conversation. We talked for 2 hours, like you might do with a friend down at the pub when things are going really well... or not so well. We simply talked, and when I finally checked the recorder for time, I knew I was in for a long editing session. I hope you enjoy the show as much as I enjoyed talking with Glen. His blog, by the way, is leagueoneminus10.blogspot.co.uk (be sure to check it out) and you can find him on Twitter @L1minus10. This is by far the longest episode of the show as of yet. Let me know what you think by contacting me on Twitter, Facebook or via email.

Not exactly the best circumstances under which to talk, but Conor Dunford and I both had interesting weekends. While he was sitting in his seat in Itchen North watching City put on a Pep masterclass, I was attending a funeral and had to rely on Twitter to tell me whether or not Forster brought Sane down in the area… thanks Sky and BT for muddling that up for me. Anyway, Conor and I talked on Monday about his writing, the match, and we even tried to predict where we will finish the season. We’ll see how it goes. I’ll probably owe him a few pints by the time all is said and done. You can find and follow Conor on Twitter @ConorDunford1, and you can get his writing on @Soton_PLPanel and @SaintsMarching. Really enjoyed the chat with him and I think you will too. You can find the article we discussed on this episode here.

If you'd like to predict the points we'll get the rest of the season as Conor and I attempted do so by clicking --->here. I'll publish the results and keep everyone updated!

What a week! 7points from 9, 4 goals, 2 clean sheets, and some really good individual and team performances. Coming off a week like that, I was super excited to talk with Jamie Grant, @ManLikeGranty on Twitter. Jamie does a lot on social media, and in what I believe to be typical English fashion, he doesn’t really boast about it… the guy has almost 17,000 followers on his Instagram page dedicated to the club (@SouthamptonPage- Twitter, Instagram, Facebook) and has worked on social media for several different media outlets. He’s currently running social media for @12thManSport.

I can’t say enough how awesome it was to talk with Jamie about a range of topics. Lots of things aren’t on the episode because they simply don’t belong here, but Jamie is a class act, a good human, and a joy to work with. I hope you enjoy our conversation!

Sometimes life is frustrating... I mean it. I've made some serious life choices over the past 2 or 3 years, and a lot of them have centered around me not allowing myself to get frustrated with things I can't control... I'm not perfect, although I'd like to be, and neither is this episode... I had serious audio issues, my guest, Chris, had to record from work (thank you, Chris) and I was on a time limit that was imposed on me from above... top it off with the fact that I didn't get to watch the match against Bournemouth and I'm sitting in a hotel room right now, means I am frustrated. But, I'm done with that now.

My guest this week is Chris Rann, and he's fantastic! If you haven't seen his website, be sure to check it in the link below. We talk the non-darby, the website, life in Dubai, and the rest of the season.

You can get in touch with Chris on Twitter @crstig and be sure to check out his website , georgeweahscousin.com.

There are a lot of aspects of training and sport, from physicality to tactics, to speed and technique. Every sport is different, but all have some common traits. One thing that this week's guest, Blake Hampton, argues, is that the psychological side of football is being neglected, and it can be the difference between being really good, and being elite.

Blake and I talk about his latest article, "Understanding the Un-teachables: A Psychological Approach to the Game," published by Top Flight Talk and avaliabele on topflighttalk.co.uk or by clicking the link --> https://topflighttalk.co.uk/psychological-approach-to-the-game. After that we run down the latest Saints' news on the international front.

You can get in touch with Blake on Twitter @SFC_Blake and you can find all of his work @ReadSouthampton, @TopFlightTalk and @12thManSport

We've all done it. Made plans, checked them out and ensured that everything is in order, only to have it all fall apart in the final minutes. But, you know what, it isn't that bad, really... so what if a Spurs' fan pulled a knife, I got my Gunzy (no, I didn't actually get a gun), but the knife story is true, which is why the bar where I watched the match against Spurs was devoid of Tottenham fans. They simply aren't allowed there any more after some incidents involving switchblades and such... well, don't bring a knife to a gun fight... enter Allen Gunn to save the day.

I talk with Gunzy about the Spurs match and the international break. You can find him on Twitter @a_gunzy and you can also get his take by following @StMarysMusings. Special thanks to Allen for saving me this week.
I also finish off my interview with Mark Sanderson. We talk about the club and the season to this point. It was really a honor chatting with him. He's also running for a good cause. Links are below.

Bobby Stokes: The Man from Portsmouth Who Scored Southampton's Most Famous Goal

I was lucky enough to have a long conversation with Mark Sanderson (@BobbyStokesBook), Author of Bobby Stokes: The Man from Portsmouth Who Scored Southampton's Most Famous Goal. Mark is so much more than an author. Besides that fact that he's married, has kids, and loves Saints, he has a regular job, just like most of us. I found a lot of parallels between his writing of the book and me doing this podcast, which is part of the reason I enjoyed talking to him so much. This is part ONE of my interview with Mark. We'll be back with Part Two next week!

The show this week focuses on Mark and the book, and also some history around the Southampton/Portsmouth rivalry. I constantly try to make sense of it as he explains is to me in detail... we have one insider, and one outsider, and the view is totally different. I hope you enjoy the coversation as much as I enjoyed my chat with Mark.
Mark is also running in the ABP Southampton Half Marathon, and is raising money for the Saints Foundation. You can sign up to support him through his Just Giving page here.

Bobby Stokes: The Man from Portsmouth Who Scored Southampton's Most Famous Goal

For the first time on the podcast I had 2 guests on 1 mic. Freddie and Clive from the Ugly Inside were kind enough to make time to talk to me on Sunday afternoon(ish). Clive was there in 1988 when the Ugly Inside started, making copies by hand and distrubiting almost 3,000 fanzines at each home game. Clive, Freddie and I talk about how it's all changed and adapted and we take a look at how Southampton have changed in recent weeks. We talk about the Watford match and look ahead to the rest of the season too.

Christian Candler and I connected over Skype on both Sunday and Monday to talk about the EFL Cup Final. Sunday was weird. I watched the match in a pub, which changed my viewing experience. I lost my voice, so the first half of the interview sounds like a croaking frog. I recored in my hotel room, not my home, so there is some street noise... and despite some things not turning out for the best, I am still proud of what I'm putting out here, in the same way I'm proud of our team for the way they played at Wembley.
You can follow Christian on Twitter @AmericxnSaint, he's the one with the sweet JWP icon. You can also view his writing here, or on the @ReadSouthampton page on Twitter.

This week I am joined by the one and only Matt Beling (on Twitter @mattz182). He runs the wearesouthampton page on Instagram and I talk about him each and every week because he designed the artwork for the show. He also designed my phone case, which I talk about too many times during this episode. Sorry about that, but I really do like it. We talk Caceres, training camp, life in Barcelona, Puel, the EFL Cup Final and more.
If you have questions or comments about the show, I'd love to hear them, please contact me via Twitter or email.

This week I had the pleasure of chatting with Allen Gunn, who, in addition to loving the Patriots and a bit of banter, runs the social media account and writes for @StMarysMusings. We talked at length about the club, our defense, our strikers and matches past and future. I even put some of our conversation on the podcast.
You can find Allen and all of his fun loving ways @a_gunzy on Twitter, and don't be afraid to give him a verbal jab or two. He can take it, he's a big boy.

This week Luke Osman stopped by to help me work through what's going on at the club. We cover new signings, non-signings, and the perils of finding a Center Back outside the transfer window. We also look at two poor performances from Saints over the past week, and briefly look ahead to Sunderland, who suddenly look like they know how to play football.
Luke Osman is on Twitter @LukeOsmanRS. He's the co-editor for Read Southampton (@ReadSouthampton) and if you haven't come across one of his articles by now then you are probably actively avoiding them. If you are interested in writing about Southampton FC you can contact Luke on his Twitter account, @LukeOsmanRS.
In addition to his other work, Luke is the host of a new podcast all about Saints. You can find the Red and White podcast on Twitter @RedAndWhitePC. The first episode was recently released and the panel talks all about Claude Puel's reign at the club. You can listen to them on Soundcloud.
