RE: The Owls v Southampton SBC Match Thread - Statesideowl - 05-08-2023
We should be okay this season.
The first half was awful we looked nailed on for a battering but managed to ride it out.
Southampton pass the ball very well as you'd expect an EPL team to do.
Their finishing isn't great and you could see why they were relegated..
Our new signings. Delgado and Musaba looked sharp for me in their debuts, Fletcher didn't get much going
They could be the missing pieces we've been desperately waiting for.
Again, I just can't with these teams blatantly flopping about trying to get the opposition carded or sent off
The mentality of a manager to stoop so low, to adopt this tactic disgusts me.
It wasn't just one player being dramatic, their whole team flopped and rolled about, looking for the contact.
A couple of them even made audible screams... Screaming like bitches now, that's the elite footballer is it?
Utterly pathetic and any real Southampton fan should be embarrassed by that. Flopping around the box against a Div 3 team then giving it the large one like they won a trophy.
Fk me it was shameful
As for the uncircumcised penis that officiated the game.
Well, he just couldn't give Southampton enough,could he?
And the carding? Lmao We are going to see some very, dodgy officiating throughout this season.
I can almost guarantee that Leicester, Leeds and Southampton won't be on the shit end of the stick as much as we will be.
Never countersue the EFL. They will make an example of you

Next up Stockport which will give xisco and the players more time to gel although he really doesn't or shouldn't be risking his best players.
Hull away Preston at home 4pts ? Or 2pts ? It's going to be a long pre season this august month and it will be even harder if we are in the bottom 3 and chasing I think xisco has to decide on more stringent tactics at the back to give us a chance of sneeking win away at Hull and Cardiff !!
Delgado really impressed me tonight you can tell he's a natural who isn't in the business of shirking or being caught in the headlights like a frightened Windass and while Pato was my MOM I think Delgado needs a better footballing partner out there on the right or he's going to get isolated to just Bannan crab passing .. hopefully Valentino will be this come the Hull game ?
Backinson Windass and vaulks where my worst players while neither played bad neither actually brought anything going forward Backinson also turned what should have been attack on Southamptons goal into a throwing which in turn led to a goal ..small mistakes like this are going to bite you in the arse all day long in the championship especially against premiership opposition!
Hats off to Gregory for the goal as well may that continue because goals arnt cheap either at this level and it takes pressure of the team if you're number 9 scores not you're number 2
Musabong could go either way for me we'll see I suppose after a few months I just hope he doesn't go down the JJ route because I really don't want to buy another laptop .

BML Update
Owlkev gets a
for goal timeI would expect most of the new signings to get a run out against Stockport
RE: The Owls v Southampton SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 05-08-2023
Table looks much better now everyone's favourites for relegation all took a hiding today !
Dull lost away at Norwich after taking the lead .
Stateside looking for a man city win to take a point from the predictions with 3 correct should city win in normal time ?
RE: The Owls v Southampton SBC Match Thread - Owlkev71 - 05-08-2023
Stateside has only 1 right, everybody else is on 2.
RE: The Owls v Southampton SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 05-08-2023
Correct I missed Chesterpigs winning in injury time.
And I may be wrong but nobody can win as everybody will draw with either city winning or city drawing putting all on 3 correct .
RE: The Owls v Southampton SBC Match Thread - Owlkev71 - 05-08-2023
No thread for the Stockport game, just put your score/scorer and goaltime in this thread.
RE: The Owls v Southampton SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 05-08-2023
Predictions don't count till the 3rd round ?
