6 at a rough count.Thinking of the kids coming out after the game - how many kids has Josh McEachran got? It looked like that might be the reason for him running out of energy in games...
Just imagine when Bournemouth eventually drop down again!Remarkable chutzpah from a supporter of a club that, as recently as 2011, were playing L1 matches against Hartlepool, Rochdale and Dagenham & Redbridge.
Southampton aren't even a big club at this level FFS.
Just another in a long list of kids who, having seen their side play some Premier League football at some point, has lost all sense of reality and of their own (modest) club's standing in English football.
I'm clearly missing something, but what part of "messing about" do you think happened before the game?
The pre-match routine was EXACTLY the same as every other game. The preparation, warm-up, team talk, everything. The one difference was that rather than having 11 "random" children lined up in the tunnel to come out with the players, you had the players wives and girlfriends waiting with their kids to be handed across in the seconds between leaving the changing room and entering the pitch. Immediately after, the children went back to their parents and the game began EXACTLY the same as it always does.
The same thing happened in dozens of games across the country this weekend and will happen at many more next weekend. It's happened across several seasons too.
I genuinely find it weird that this is even being mentioned as a thing, other than those who acknowledged that it was a nice touch and a good thing.
Yes.So if it's last game, do or die, winner takes all, v Luton, relegation or staying up, packed crowd, simmering white hot atmosphere, tension like never before, you're OK with players cradling their babies as they stare down their opponent trying to gain any tiny margin they can ?

I'd want a much more dead eyed, focussed, approach. I'm a dad of four, all close in age, it's not like I'm some party pooper who doesn't want to indulge kids and babies !!!! However, I respect your view, I just don't agree with it.
No one is questioning his entitlement but as a forum, he should be expected to be picked up on the perpetual negativity (‘we’re not going up/ staying up’ delete as applicable) and wilful trolling.Brackley town on Radox, cradling babies before big games. Yes please.
Another ten pages of this drivel.
BTW, Great Uncle Kip is entitled to support this club in any way he sees fit (unless he wears a Newcastle shirt in our end).

Six children, though. Six children!Some of our lot are unbelievable, aren’t they?
We’ve just seen one of the best occasions at the Kassam, to secure our Championship status, no less. Yet we have people arguing the toss over cradling babies, mascots and how many children Josh Mac has.
Get a grip fellas, Jesus!
He borrows the Positive Bus between games for the school run! Always tops up the fuel and leaves it spotless.Six children, though. Six children!
Yes where is it OUTV I didnt do my superstitious not listening or watching thing without assuming I could eventually watch the whole glorious afternoon in the comfort of my own home! Also I have been paying for a service that was frequently provided for by sky which I also pay for. Where is it?Are we going to get a full match replay on OUTV?

Is anyone else mostly overwhelmed that @Big Ron is arguing with @Big Ronaldo . I’m in a parallel universe at this point where we never let Jack go but we are a professional tennis team

Extra cheese on mine please?It's like the Chester v Chesterfield derby but with go-karts, cheese and MDMA.
Think there could be a lot of Mackems crying at the end of the gameSunderland sold out their allocation/ Bit of drama also as teh KO time was still TBC as a few days ago considering both clubs coming from the north

Or at the end of next season if they should beat Sheff Utd, which I doubt.Think there could be a lot of Mackems crying at the end of the game
Personally rubbing my hands together at the prospect of Wrexham going knee deep in wages for Bamford and Cairney. 2 players made out of glass at the one level you can’t afford it.Leeds will be alright provided then can get a decent goalkeeper, replace Manor Solomon with someone equally as good, ditch Bamford and buy a proper striker and add a couple of players for depth
I’d love West Ham to go down! Recent high achievers like Brentford might run out of road too. I hope Leeds can make a go of it.Personally rubbing my hands together at the prospect of Wrexham going knee deep in wages for Bamford and Cairney. 2 players made out of glass at the one level you can’t afford it.
I think Leeds will compete in the premier league. Can’t see them struggling for the 35 points they’re going to need - suspect they’ll get a reborn Kalvin Phillips back and spend a further £100m wisely. Burnley, the play off winner and West Ham are my bets to come down.

Whoever goes up out of the two of them will really struggle I’d imagine.
All 3 who went up last season were arguably better than the sides going up this year, and they’ve barley won a handful of games between them and all coming straight back down with barely a whimper.
