Thanks to that cheating Arsenal git - refs are gonna think long & hard now when it comes to awarding a penalty...

Pards goes from the stands down to the technical area. Obviously not enjoying what he's seeing.

ANOTHER Stockport corner ffs...

None...

We've got a Polish international striker up front - and a proven goal-scoring machine in Lambo. Surely...SURELY - we can manage a couple (at least) here today?!?!

Saints "switching off at the back there"... Some things never change then!

Agreed. This will never ever happen.

Yeah. I don't think anyone ever found the key to open it though!

As if by magic... http://www.independent.ie/sport/soccer/premier-league/mcshane-heads-for-hull-as--black-cats-drop-green-card-1869097.html

We got £300,000 for him according to this http://www.getreading.co.uk/sport/football/readingfc/s/2056336_reading_fc_sign_grzegorz_rasiak_and_jobi_mcanuff In the warchest for Pards I hope.

If Schneiderlin was as 'classy' and talented as he is made out to be - then he would stand out & simply shine each & every game - just about. But I don't see that...

"Undisclosed fee". In other words - for next to nothing. Not that I mind. If he (or anyone else) doesn't want the honour to pull on the red & white stripes - then f@ck off.

Rasiak's gone to Reading today - apparently - and will be in their side on saturday: http://www.getreading.co.uk/sport/football/readingfc/s/2056336_breaking_news_reading_fc_to_sign_grzegorz_rasiak_and_jobi_mcanuff

He (Murty) will be 35-years old this November. I would say that (sadly) it looks as though his career has all but finished.

O/S report it as Knee ligament damage...in other words - his season is just about over I'd say. http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/Suspensions/0,,10280,00.html

Pardew confirms 2 bids from English clubs: http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~1768785,00.html

Yes - t'was on Solent. Interviewed Pardew after the game & he was asked if there will be comings & goings between now & the transfer window. He was asked if Rasiak was going because he wasn't in the squad tonight. Pardew said we've had 2 bids for him - and that's about all he said on the matter. It looks like Rasiak will be gone within the next 48 hours then. My guess is possibly to Watford?

Pardew says we've had 2 bids for Rasiak. Looks like he's as good as gone.

Oops - Carsley with the 2nd...

Lallana celebrating scoring tonight...

Perhaps it was race-related - who knows. Either way he sounds a nasty little basturd indeed.

Bugger and double bugger then.

So - is that correct; no Trotman or Hammond tomorrow - due to being cup-tied? Bugger if it is.

Following the snippet in The Echo this morning regarding the complete lack of any scouting system at the club - let alone the non-existence of any set-up in place to deal with in formation/tactical knowledge regarding that weeks' opposition - it's only then that you realise just how bare & stripped of resources the club had previously become. At least Pardew (a shocked Pardew - it has to be said) is doing something about it and will now have no less than 5 full-time scouts working alongside him. No wonder there isn't the normal crop of very talented youngsters coming through the academy. At least we should now be able to construct side sort of scouting/talent-spotting system once again. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4560122.Pardew_aims_to_improve_Saints__scouting/?ref=rss
