Episode 334: Dispirited Away

Ray Hunt — Mon, 09 Nov 2026 07:38:00 GMT

One minute we're taking a decent point away at West Brom, the next we're suffering what could well be the worst result of the season at Preston. Welcome to the wonderful world of Southampton Football Club, where hope goes to die and expectations are best left at home.

On this week's episode of In That Number, Ray and Kevin dissect the contrasting fortunes of the two away trips. Was the point at The Hawthorns a decent result, or were we simply setting ourselves up for another almighty disappointment at Deepdale.

They also have some unwelcome injury news, with key defender Keven Schlotterbeck suffering a dislocated shoulder. How long could we be without out him? And, more importantly, do we actually have adequate cover, or are we about to discover the defensive equivalent of a dodgy spare tire?

As always, there's the usual predictions to go through, Fantasy Football chat and plenty of other questionable nonsence that probably shouldn't be broadcast in public.

Two away games, one point, one absolute stinker and an injury headache. It's all getting a bit spirited away from us....

Episode 333: Halloween 4-1

Ray Hunt — Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:30:00 GMT

It was a Halloween horror show for QPR as Saints turned St. Mary's into a house of horrors, smashing the Hoops 4-1 and sending the travelling fans home with more tricks than treats.

On this week's episode of In That Number, the guys celebrate the Saints performance that had plenty of bite, dissect the goals, the key points that keep the unbeaten run at home alive.

But there's no time to rest on our broomsticks, because a double game week is coming.

They look ahead to two tricky trips on the road. Can Saints cause a fright at West Bromwich Albion. Can we make it a double helping of away-day treats at Deepdale?

Are there any spooky surprises waiting around the corner?

All that plus the usual Saints chat, opinions, predictions and nonsence.

Happy Halloween Saints fans

Episode 332: Rain Man

Ray Hunt — Mon, 26 Oct 2026 11:30:00 GMT

The Saints have blown into the capital, weathered the storm and left West Ham all wet behind the ears.

On the latest edition if ITN, the boys are basking in the glory of Southampton's 3-2 victory over the Hammers in the London Stadium. Five goals, plenty of drama and enough rain to make Noah consider a second ark. It was a proper stormer from the Saints, and Rain Man James Bree stepped up to the task.

But while the weather was doing it's worst, they've got a few questions of their own. What's going on with Divin Mubama and his lack of minutes? Is he left out in the cold, or is there more to come from the young forward?

And with the London skies behind them, attention turns back home to St. Mary's, where QPR are next up in what promises to be a massive game for both. Can Saints keep the storm clouds away and make it bacl-to-back reasons to celebrate?

Grab a brolly, batten down the hatches and join Ray, Kevin and Tim as they put the Hammers to bed and look ahead to the next showdown.

Episode 330: FanCast VII

Ray Hunt — Thu, 01 Oct 2026 15:47:00 GMT

It's international break, Southampton aren't playing, and.... there's still no Tonda news.

But fear not, because In That Number has you covered to cure your matchday blues.

This week, Tom rides solo and swaps match reports for match shirts and welcomes a special guest: Kit Chat Matt

Matt joins Tom to talk all things kits - from his love of classics, stories behind them, to his brilliant content and what makes a kit go from "That's nice" to "I absolutely need that in my wardrobe."

But it's not all kit-centric, they can't go the entire episode without taking Saints, they also take a step back and look at Saints' season so far.

Are they happy with what they've seen? Who's impressed? If the season so far were a football shirt, would we be buying it, wearing it proudly, or sending it straight back to the club shop?

No fixtures. No Tonda news. No problem.

Just another episode of In That Number - now available in several different sizes.

Episode 329: Die Another Away Day

Ray Hunt — Mon, 21 Sep 2026 06:20:00 GMT

It's another away day, another defeat and another opportunity to ask.... what the bloody hell is going on on the road?

Saints travelled to Wrexham and returned empty-handed after a frustrating 2-1 defeat, despite dominating large part of the game and created enough chances to take all three points.

So is there an actual problem with Saints away from home?

Why can we look so convincing at St. Mary's but struggle to turn performances into points on the road? Is it concentration, mentality, game management, defending set pieces, finishing chances.... or are we just cursed to spend the season travelling around the country throwing away points?

With no match to preview, Ray, Kevin and Tom turn their attentions to the Tonda situation, with the boss expected to learn the outcome of the FA's investigation during the international break. What punishment could be coming his way, and what could it mean for the club moving forward?

All that, plus the usual nonsense, arguments, overreactions and attempts to work out how Saints can go from home superheroes to away day villains.

At least James Ward-Prowse is back!

Episode 328: To Kill a Soccerbird

Ray Hunt — Mon, 14 Sep 2026 09:55:00 GMT

Saints have gone full Attenborough this week, putting two of the Championship's feathered friends firmly on the endangered species list!

First up, the Swans were well and truly plucked as Saints put table-topping Swansea City to the sword with a superb 3-1 victory at St. Mary's. Finn Azaz, Cyle Larin and Léo Scienza got amongst the goals as we turned the Swans into sitting ducks.

And just when we thought the aviary might have been spared, along came Bristol City's Robins. They didn't chirp for long.

A rampant Saints followed up the Swansea win with a thumping 4-1 victory over Bristol City, with Larin helping himself to another two goals before Kuryu Matsuki and Finn Azaz completed the bird massacre.

That's two birds down in four days. The Saints have gone from panic over throwing away leads to apparently deciding that anything with wings is fair game.

Elsewhere, the trio of Ray, Kevin and the returning Tom look at Cyle Larin's Golden Boot charge, Saints' home form and from Welsh birds to Welsh dragons (they have wings) - as Saints head to The Racecourse Ground.

Wrexham will be desperate for a response after a brutal 6-0 defeat at West Ham, while Saints arrive with confidence sky-high after putting seven goals past Swansea and Bristol City across their last two games.

Can the Saints now slay the dragon? Or will Wrexham breathe fire and bring us crashing back down?

All that, plus the usual ITN nonsence, arguments, overreactions and probably at least one completely unnecessary bird pun.

Episode 328 - To Kill a Soccerbird. Two birds down. One dragon to go.
