His convoy arrived at about 4pm cutting the queues up the inside slip road off the A27. There nice and early to get on the beer and pies.

4pints of harveys and a veggie pie (the sweet potato and coconut curry one) will be perfect for him given he is a vegetarian.

Now if Angela Rayner was there she would have been taking on all comers following a session of wkd blue.

Not sure why he bothered with our game as only one English player started!

Exactly. The only player Tuchel could have been watching was Rice, and yet it’s an Arsenal fan who gets criticised for watching his team

It's a shame people can't allow Starmer the chance to go to a football game when he wishes.
Plenty of politicians from both sides of the divide have previously attended events.
It's been covered multiple times why he's not in with the general public. Unfortunately the cost of looking after VIP's is always a sensitive subject.
Any public official who wants to attend a football match shouldn't be prevented from doing so due to fear for their personal security.

I've no problem with him attending a match (as long as he pays his way).
I do have a problem being forced to sit in my coach an extra 15 minutes whilst we had to wait for him to be escorted away.

Sunak was regularly on the Directors Box at Southampton as Chancellor and also as PM. Don't recall much said about that in the papers

But he got to see 30 minutes of Webdini. Worth it.

We left the coach park between 5 and 10mins later than we normally do.

How do you define 'pay his way'

The young lad who scored doesn't count?

As he was in the West does that make him 3 tier Keir?

I hope Sir Freebie was nice and warm and cosy in the chilly conditions.

Rice and Nwaneri make two though I would only rate one as good enough for the national team ;-)

I don't recall you criticising Johnson or Sunak for freebies

Are you two tier PoTG?

Pat Rice was also there.

He`s a selfish prick who would hold up the infirm and elderly to grab another freebie , thought he might be doing something to help dig the country out of the sh1t - silly me .

Fifteen minutes? Fifteen whole minutes? FIFTEEN?

What were you planning on doing, boiling five eggs?

That’s what I thought. And that one player was the 17 year old Arsenal guy who had only played 1 game up until yesterday.

Hold up the infirm or elderly? Get a grip man. There is nothing wrong with sitting on a bus or coach which is dry for between 5 and 10 mins. It regularly happens when we play a) palace b) teams who bring most by coach due to train strikes etc

Not a big issue

Is it the 1st time we have had a sitting Prime Minster at a game of ours? We've had a deputy prime minister (prescott)

I imagine Sunak may have attended a Saints game at the Amex but it seems he mixed with the rif raf when he went to games

Was regularly in the directors box after becoming Chancellor and then all the games he attended after becoming PM
