I believe that we might have an obligation to buy Philips. I'm also thinking that there is likely a deal to keep Hemming I read that he was looking to move his wife and kids down and looking for a house to get them in to the school they were in last year, you would only do that if you were here longer.

If trump lifts sanctions on Russia and continues to lob tariffs elsewhere we could be looking at very different dynamics, especially if Russia are not held to account for the last 3 years.

I'm going for a saints win here. I know Hibs are on form, however I think we will do the job 2-1. Two goals either side of the half for us and an 80th minute from Hibs to make it squeaky.

With a full staring line up out of contract this summer it's going to be a major rebuild needed. Out of contract we have: Denis Adeniran, Elvis Bwomono, Luke Kenny, Conor McMenamin, Scott Tanser, Richard Taylor, Ayunga, Olusanya, Mandron and Declan John. I believe that Conor and Luke have one year extension options with the club and Hemming is obviously still on loan. Question is do we see any of these guys signing on ? I personally don't and what should we be doing next season? I think Robo is the man for the job, however I can't remember a time since his first season when we have had to start with so many changes. We tend to start the season well as we have had a settled squad. Realistically it's going to take time to integrate and I expect a slow start next year which won't go well with our fickle fans.

I'm talking about 4 years time for all this once Trump does all the damage he can. He's giving them an out to save face and rebuild.

Worrying developments at the moment. He's about to set foundations for Russia to invade Europe and he doesn't know it. Ukraine give up some land against their will. Putin then goes and celebrates in Moscow with military parades to look like a hero. Over the next 4 years Russia rebuilds it's military capability. 4 years time Trump finishes his presidency and Democrats get back into office. 76 year old Putin attacks Ukraine again and has aspirations on other parts of Europe to rebuild russian empire as a final throw to secure his legacy NATO are powerless as Trump has decimated funding.

We can't be dangerous if we aren't scoring or making the opposition keeper work.

I do wonder if losing Diarmuid O'Carroll has impacted us more than we might think. I believe he was instrumental in a lot of set piece training and he was clearly a talented coach in a very small team. As well as players in summer we also need a good look at specialist coaches for fitness and set pieces. With some big lads in the team we should be making keepers work when we get a corner.

I thought we played well first half, however if you can't score more than one you have a problem. I thought we looked a lot more balanced with Alebiosiu giving more on attack. Problem at the moment is lack of depth on the bench. No natural replacement for Mandron who played well. One Central midfielder on the bench to see us through extra time. Mooney coming on did brilliantly but by then everyone around him were dead on their feet. We also made one sub on 70 with Elvis then waited till 90 minutes to bring on two others then 92 minutes to bring on Mooney before leaving last two till 110 minutes. We needed that bench to have been used about the 70th minute and we could have been fresher before their goal, no idea why Robo didn't at least bring on Symth for CBM and Kiltie possibly for John to give us some extra energy earlier.

Failed to see the point in the long balls today that just hung in the wind. We never utilise Olusanya by getting the ball in front of his feet instead he is chasing lost causes. We need to be replacing our 3 criminals ex players in January as we need another option up front. We also need to sort out our set pieces we offered nothing yesterday, free kick we had was similar to one they scored and I have seen stronger pass backs. Orfford should stay rest of the season in Ireland for his development bring him back in next year as it looks like he's benefitting from the move. Mooney needs to get game time I would be giving him a loan move too.

What happens for folk that turned up at 2.30 to get in. They out in the cold till 3 pm.

For f**ks sake. Don't they get that there is a lot of folk travelling and now need to plan for traveling later when it's still shit weather. It's a shambles. There is a weather warning and authoritys saying do not travel but it's fine for football.

Heard he tried to pose as a team mate!!

I do hope it is true. We need stability and Robo offers that. He's not got it right in a few areas this transfer window. Main issue for me is Balcombe who just doesn't communicate with his defense. I think it will come good soon.

How old are your kids? Unfortunately if they are under 18 they can only get in if it's for food. De Beers and Bull inn are good for saints fans.
