Installed Sopcast but trying to find a feed on it is harder than a hard thing in a hard tree!!!! Non of it makes any sense? Anyone got a sopcast link?

Fox has made some gaff's this season but generally has done OK going forwards. Dont think there are any defenders of ours this season that havent made any gaffs though. Fox has also been injured so prob why he didnt last the 90 mjins yesterday. Reeves came on and did OK I thought. He seemed to be fairly high up the pitch at times and I thought he was going to get caught out leaving Lennon so much space but it didnt happen. Shaw has been injured too but I reckon he would of got a break before Reeves would had he been fit. He was sat up with the players that didnt play in the directors bit. Lee, Seaborne, DeRidder and Shaw and a few others were all there at the start.

Youve got that down to a T! Something with Pompey in thats a nicer place to visit kinda makes me be a little bit sick in my mouth though.

Dam copy and paste!!!! somehoe missed off your magnificent number and must of moved everyone elses numbers up one!!!!

Best help it along then.

Ryan was the best player on the pitch in the pre-season game against Exeter. Really encourages the youngens too. Despite not being in the 1st team frame on the pitch it looks like he is putting the right effort in and is a good influence. Fitness would be the only part I would say he was lacking. Seemed to be blowing a fair bit even in the first half. Still managed to run his guts out second half and get 2 assists though. I think its fair to say the club dont see him in the first team and will carry on paying him a wage until someone else tempts him away. The club dont have to help that situation along and as with Puncheon if a bad attitude has anything to do with it then he will drop even further away from the first team.

I thought some of the positivity in the first half was due to some seriously rose tinted glasses. We looked like a league 1 team against the prem champions at times and I thought we could do better. Never for 1 minute did I think we could beat Man City or play like Barcalona. But I knew we could play better than we were and I was frustrated with what I was seeing. JRod was lost out of position and Guly is no target man as he cant hold onto the ball on his own when up against such class defence. The changes produced a performance that far exceeded what I thought we were capable of against such a good squad. We showed the type of football we are capable of and scored 2 goals against the prems best that made themselves look lost at times. Rickie caused trouble as the target man and that brought Guly into the game, Davis in the middle gave a bit of bite that Ward-Prowse is yet to learn and the whole team lost some of the sloppyness in the passing from the first half. Fox will be kicking himself for his header and I doubt he will be making the same mistake any time soon and I doubt we will be on the wrong side of too many wrong off side decissions but both of those show the small margins we now have to deal with. In the Championship you could maybe have 3 or 4 mistakes and get punished for 1. In the prem 1 mistake is enough to get punished. can our defence learn that lesson quickly? Or will we be adding some real quality to the back line? Man U pinching the LB we were after shows the level of quality we are trying to get so on a whole I am really pleased with where we are going. Plenty of mixed feelings yesterday but I can see a really bright future without possible targets, so if we manage to bring in one or two players that we are after then I think we can do fantasticly well compared to what most of us probably expect. If we can learn from that and take the positives into the following games then I fancy us to give most teams a run for thier money.

He blocked me when I said the club was shameless when it went on about pre-season trips abroad when its fleaced so many. He doesnt like a ballenced argument does he?

Ah of course, cant doc points off a club that has gone pop!!!

On that basis getting a new CVA agreed that effectivly fails the previous CVA is meaningless while the club remain in Admin as the new CVA doesnt take effect until they exit Admin. So the FL cant realy argue the points to start at the beginining of the season. But I cant see how the club can argue the points shouldnt stand at all when the new CVA starts and basically bin's the previous CVA. Unless a new CVA has been drawn up to include the previous CVA at 100% of its worth? Im starting to get confused as to which Admins they have had points for and which ones they havent!!!!

Haha trousers gets my vote. Im not on here enough anymore to check reply's to my posts so no point in offering to monitor everyone else's. Good luck to the chosen one or two.

I thought I would give the news page a go as that has always been my default page. It only took 26 seconds to load!!! It does look better than the home page for sure but by todays standards its still a pile of sh*te for performance. I dont usually like Mobile versions so usually go for full site when im on my phone. Anyone who try's it with the OS will soon form a similar opinion to me. I always thought that you make stuff to work on the crappyest bits of kit you can rather than assume everyone has blade servers running under their desks. hey ho, if they freeze people out then there will be less people who see their constant push to sell saints player and so on. Good marketing ploy that!

If they manage to start and finish the season and end up relegated....... would there be another dose of parachute payments that BC will be happy to hoover up?
