Can understand why some may feel its harsh, at least the club is consistent in it's approach. No freebies, no scope for potential abuse of privilege.

Independent but nationally affiliated journalist.

No idea. Looked ok in that friendly. Andreas Jakobsson was no better.

With respect to Simon, maybe it's better he talk to people without a certain preconception. He will be damned if he does, damned if he doesn't right now. Any public interview will be a reaction to recent events, no wonder he will be picky in terms of the outlet.

Be honest, who had forgotten about Chris Perry?

He went downhill quickly. Played for Kettering against our youth team a year and a half ago in a pre-season friendly. Was entirely ordinary. Too much too young.... again.

It was always a rather gross assumption. As proven on here twitter is 99.9% b*llocks.

On the assumption this is true.... I'd take him!

One way or another back in Hampshire.

Yep, that would do me.

Deported in 12 months time during the second Falkland's War? Hey, we'll never know so hopefully he'll win us our first league title! Why not.

Brilliant. An unwanted record now taken from my home city. Now come on Hartlepool!!

Bottom of the table Hartlepool beating them 2-0 at Fratton Park. Even a draw would be an embarrassment to them.

Now, that IS significant, a chance for the first non league side to beat someone from the top flight since 1989. (Sutton United beating Coventry.)

Well, maybe a bit weaker up front.... But behind that not second choice. 01 Green 03 Traore 05 Ferdinand 20 Fabio Booked 21 Ben-Haim 07 Park Ji-sung (Zamora - 67' ) 14 Granero 32 Faurlin Booked 12 Mackie 37 Bothroyd 39 Campbell

The does make me smile.

True. However, with the ages of the players we have I would expect one or two to leave and be sold on one way or another. That should offset things a bit, assuming we stay up of course.

Stoke above Villa. Ouch. Puts our spending into context.

Looking forward to this one. Staying the friday night at 'The Crown at Worthington,' near Standish, just north of Wigan. Great inn and real ale pub. Only 40 quid or so a night as well! No idea of Pubs close to the DW Mind.....

Butterfield and Forte

Sorry, my sarcasm was a bit vague. These rumours are entirely forum generated i'm afraid. As the above link will show. Twitter and social media simply cannot be trusted, there are too many people wanting to make a name for themselves.... and lazier aspects of the media prey on it.

Yes, extremely firm rumours.

Now captain of Bangkok United FC! According to the oracle of Wikipedia: 32 goals in 53 appearances. Alaeddine Yahia anyone?

Saints forever. That feels a long time ago now.

When you need to eeeeerr tackle.... you follow through..... not like Puncheon..... He follow through diff-a-rent.
