Total Saints Podcast is back for a new season with a safe pair of hands at the helm. At the end of last season, you may have heard regular host and TSP founder Ben tease a potential break to enjoy some family time this season and that's exactly what he's done. But rest assured, Ben is still involved behind the scenes and lifelong Saints fan and radio presenter Martin Starke is joined by Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) to discuss...

Total Saints Podcast brings down the curtain on another Premier League campaign. In truth, it’s been very disappointing for Saints – culminating in a predictable 3-0 defeat at West Ham United. Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) get together for one final time in 2020/21, assessing both the performance at the London Stadium and the season in general (31:50).

It’s been a great week for everyone who loves/supports/follows Southampton Football Club, thanks to back-to-back 3-1 wins over Crystal Palace and Fulham. With a heck of a lot to chew over, Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) reflect on Danny Ings’ 100th senior goal, penalty saves, Wilfried Zaha’s traditional ‘tears at St. Mary’s’, Che Adams impact and Nathan Tella, a talented (and incredibly smiley!) 21-year-old,...

It wasn't necessarily a surprise to see Saints lose at Liverpool on Saturday night, but it did once again reiterate the lack of belief and cutting edge currently running throughout the side. Given Danny Ings’ continued absence, you got the feeling Saints could have played until the next UK Bank Holiday and still not score! Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) reflect on a thirteenth loss in seventeen Premier...

One thing Southampton Football Club will never be is predictable…. Expect them to win? They’ll often let you down. Expect them to get turned over? They’ll produce a spirited, ‘against the odds’ display, just like they did against Leicester City. After showing lots of effort and commitment, Saints did well to secure a 1-1 draw. Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) reflect on a game that oozed determination,...

Saints suffered FA Cup Semi-Final heartache at Wembley, after a thoroughly lacklustre showing against Leicester City. Despite Ralph Hasenhüttl saying his team ‘left everything out on the pitch’, Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) discuss, amongst other post-match reaction, whether they agree with that opinion…..or not! TSP158 also includes conversation about the proposed (..../disgraceful!) European Super League...

Cup fever is starting to intensify in and around Southampton (well…..it was pre-West Brom anyway!), with Saints set to take on Leicester City in next weekend’s FA Cup semi-final at Wembley. Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) are joined by Simon Peach (PA Media) to preview another pivotal match in the Club’s history (50:15).

A quiet, uneventful return to Premier League action for Saints? When have they ever been known to do that?! Instead, after an end-to-end, rollercoaster of a match, Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side secured a fantastic 3-2 win over Burnley. Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and regular guest Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) work their way through the key moments, players and decisions from another tough – and emotionally draining – Premier League battle....

Saints cruised through to the FA Cup Semi-finals thanks to a comfortable 3-0 win over Bournemouth. Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) look back at a dominant showing from Hampshire’s premier football team, including standout performances by Nathan Redmond and Stuart Armstrong.

Saints did their best to ruin Mother’s Day by putting in an excruciating performance against Brighton & Hove Albion. With Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side showing little desire or urgency, it was no surprise to see The Seagulls eventually win 2-1. Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) try to dissect what is (or isn’t…..!) going on with the St. Mary’s outfit at the moment.

It was another 'game of two halves’ for Saints at Elland Road during the week. Despite playing pretty well in the first 45 minutes – but yet again not taking their chances – Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side eventually lost 3-0 to Leeds. Worryingly, the Austrian even called his players out publicly for ‘giving up’! Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) chat about a dodgy pitch, dodgy result and even dodgier run of form!...

“What’s that in the rear-view mirror?” “That, my friend, is 29 points!!” Yes, after a loooong 48 days, Saints finally moved on to 30 Premier League points, courtesy of a hard-fought 1-1 draw with Chelsea. Ben Stanfield (Host), Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Dan Sheldon (The Athletic) discuss a resolute Saints performance, some Minamino magic, possession stats and Alex McCarthy’s ‘penalty-saving record’.

TSP celebrate their 150th episode in true Saints style! During the course of Southampton Football Club’s 135-year history, one moment still stands out above any other – the 1st May 1976.

In true Saints style, it’s been a week of two halves! Having beaten Wolves in the FA Cup on Thursday – which set-up a Quarter-Final tie with Bournemouth – the Midlands side then got their revenge in the Premier League. The latter was Saints sixth league defeat in a row (an unwanted Club record!).

As Britney Spears once said….."Oops!...I(/we!) did it again!" Yes, sadly, for the second time in two seasons, Saints succumbed to an embarrassing *-0 loss. This time it was Manchester United who basked in the glory of a record-equalling score line. With a number of mitigating factors at play – including an early (but fully justified!) red card, numerous injuries to the squad and an inept refereeing performance by Mike Dean (quelle surprise!) – it didn’t feel as much of a shock as it might...
