Total Saints Podcast

Bill Shankley once said “Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that.”In reality – despite losing 2-1 to Cardiff City this past weekend – paying respect to Emiliano Sala, who tragically lost his life recently, was the far more serious matter for those in attendance at St. Mary’s.Yes, the defeat Saints ultimately suffered to the Bluebirds hurt, but, at the end of the day, it was only a football match! To review all the post-match reaction and feeling, Ben Stanfield (Host) is joined by fellow fans, Simon Peach (Press Association), Glen de la Cour (LeagueoneMinus10) and Freddie Hunt (The Ugly Inside).The Podcast covers poor defending, frustrating tactics, dropped points and relegation struggle - an all too familiar set of topics if you’ve followed Saints the last few seasons!
