  1. In the 30 plus years that there has been a single final to reach the top division the only derby games have been Leicester v Derby in 94 and Palace v West Ham in 2004. So they have never had to deal with the ferocity this game would bring. But there would be so much alignment of the stars needed - Saints and Pompey to finish in top six, both to avoid each other in the semis, both to win their semis - that it is not really a prospect I am worried about.
  2. Think its a little unfair on Shearer that the goals he scored in the First Division don't seem to count.
  3. Not sure that the police would actually allow the game to be played at Wembley. It might end up as two-legs for security reasons. But so many factors would have to align that it is an unlikely scenario
  4. Terrible design confirmed then. Puma's designers are about the most talentless out there, and that's saying something.
  5. They had a record attendance of 2205, with a large away following. It threatened to kick off at the final whistle. The trip was worth it to dine at the Spudman
  6. However, I went to Tamworth v Chester on Saturday. The home team was 15 points clear at the top of the table and managed not a single shot on goal in the 0-0 draw.
  7. Just suppose he had scored with that first touch? I get a lot of questions from supporters of other clubs about Ali Dia, and when I tell them the truth as recounted here they don't want to hear. As the newspaperman says in the Man who shot Liberty Valance "when the legend becomes fact print the legend".
  8. I think we would have a decent prospect of beating Ipswich or Leicester. My issue is that I don't have a great deal of confidence in us winning the semis, especially if we meet Norwich
  9. I would agree with those predictions apart from Cardiff. Historically we struggle away against them and I think a draw is optimistic
  10. Where was the tribute to Chris Nicholl yesterday? I guess they had it planned for the Preston game. But to forget one of our longest serving managers and a great player is shocking.
  11. It could be that finishing 4th and likely to play West Brom in the semis is best for us, because I would not want to have to go to Hull or Norwich.
  12. The referee seemed to be under the impression that kicking the ball away from freekicks is no longer a yellow card offence. Birmingham did that a number of times and on at least one occasion blocked a freekick being taken, all with no punishment
  13. no. If only I was remotely ITK. But I love speculation about football kits
  14. This would make a lovely Saints shirt
  15. When is the Leicester game likely to move to - is it possible they could move it forward in the week it is currently scheduled for from the Friday to Tuesday or Wednesday?
