Yes I saw the end of that too, I think it was Maeda they were talking about.

Dexter Blackstock, Dean Richards, Ken Monkou, David McGoldrick ........

Oh yeah, my mistake, that's why I don't post much as I forget the forum rules.

Although from a completely neutral view at the Birmingham Mail on their commentary link: 'Van Dijk dominating You wouldn’t think that this was Van Dijk’s first outing of the season. He’s won everything in the air and has led by example. The centre-half is a monster of a defender and the sooner he’s back for the Saints the better.'

This is an excellent read.

Great, can you drop me an email on pdobbo@sky.com ?

I'll have that UvG if it's still going?

OK, potentially one for those who remember Graham Taylor's England. To the 'infamous' Balotelli song: Oohh Ronald Koeman, he's f*cking class, When he played for Holland he put Platty on his ass, Then he took a free kick and just flicked it like a pass oohh Ronald Koeman, he's f*cking class, When he played...blah blah blah..

This is Andrew's email now, still running Midland Saints. andrew-bartlett@sky.com

Claridge has been top drawer when commenting on Saints to be fair. I wanted to hate him, but found he was being really nice and complimentary every week. I actually started to think he was becoming red and white.

I see the bench has been extended as well, maybe one day we'll have Recaro seats and be truly Premier League

He did die 10 years ago, 'hatred' might be a bit strong now i think.

We kicked off against Bournemouth, so it was them who chose ends. Possibly trying to upset our usual routine, but inadvertently giving us a new one.

I doubt it will be on Sky, they will be saturated with coverage of teams believing they have a right to be in the Champions League that night, even though they are not actually champions of their respective leagues.
