Theresa May is a terrible prime minister, but things could be worse, it could be Gove.

Quote:
Michael Gove has apologised "unreservedly" after making a joke about Harvey Weinstein on BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
The environment secretary compared being interviewed by presenter John Humphrys with going into Harvey Weinstein's bedroom.
He added: "You just hope you emerge with your dignity intact."
Mr Gove faced a backlash, including from fellow MPs, before tweeting it had been a "clumsy attempt at humour".
He added: "It wasn't appropriate. I'm sorry and apologise unreservedly."

Just bumping this up in case izzythepush wants to have a wee gloat about Southanpton's success in reaching the last four. I'll listen if no-one else will (except perhaps Walter).

@lmur,
I really do appreciate this, I really do. We may be in the last four but we're also in the bottom three so now's not the time for gloating.

Perhaps a bit of cautious optimism. I'm really pleased Pellegrino has gone, we should never have sacked Claude Puel, but that's another story.

Wigan ran rings around us in the first half, and we were really lucky, but it was Mark Hughes' first game in charge, and sometimes you need a lucky manager.

@izzythepush,
Had a quick look at your remaining fixtures. A tough run-in including Arsenal, Leicester away and Chelsea. Plus Man City in the last game of the season. West Ham away is the next game. Think you'll need to win that to stand any chance of staying up.

@lmur,
Fortunately West Ham are troubled and we're on a bounce, but it's a very important game and nothing to be complacent about.

@izzythepush,
Huddersfield have Chelsea away, Everton at home, Man City away and Arsenal at home as their final four fixtures. Can't see them picking up any points from those games. Apart from that, they have Newcastle and Brighton away and Watford at home. Not as bleak for Southampton as I thought. 36 points could be enough!

@lmur,
Fingers crossed. After a couple of successive seasons in 8th place I thought we'd left relegation battles behind us.

We should never have sacked Claude Puel. For his first season in charge he did a decent job.

@izzythepush,
I guess it is still possible for Swansea - just need to beat Stoke 5-0 and have Man City beat your boys by a similar score. What are the odds in the bookies for that scenario?

@lmur,
Probably very good. Huddersfield aren't out of the woods yet.
