Maybe not. But better to ask for 1 million and get slightly less in cash then start low to begin with.

He'll still be off. We are testing team's resolve right now... we don't need to blink just yet. Punch has shown that he can be useful at Premiership level, that will appeal to the likes of QPR, Swansea... and even Newcastle (Pardew connection.) He will be off by the end of the transfer window, for cash.

Looking forward to it mate. Would be good to see any other Saints who have bothered making the trip, Will hopefully be there for about 6.15 or so.

Here's my own prediction. 1. West ham 2. Leicester ------------ 3. Cardiff 4. Middlesborough 5. Nottingham Forest 6. Leeds ------------ 7. Saints 8. Hull 9. Reading 10. Blackpool 11. Burnley 12. Millwall 13. Birmingham 14. Portsmouth 15. Barnsley 16. Ipswich 17. Derby 18. Doncaster 19. Brighton 20. Crystal Palace 21. Watford ---------------- 22. Bristol City 23. Coventry City 24. Peterborough Worked out using a predictive formula coupled with my own judgement on how strong each club is in four key areas, namely: First 11 strength Squad Depth Team Stability and Manager Ability

It's been confirmed at Rockingham Road. (The Elgoods Brewery Stadium....) We may also be seeing a familiar face tomorrow night. It seems that Phil Ifil, who played for us on loan back in 2007 is currently on trial at Kettering after he was released by Dagenham and Redbridge.

I really wouldn't worry about the need for segregation. Having said that they pulled in 1,600 for a game against a Leicester City XI.... although 900 of those were Leicester fans.

Well, i've managed to sway my work day to ensure I have some time in Kettering in the afternoon, so i'm definitely in!

It's something that Coventry absloutely have failed to do since the Ricoh was built. Unless the upwards momentum can be maintained at Falmer they will struggle to maintain the numbers.

I'm currently working on a preview blog of my own, will be sure to post it in here on completion. I look forward to everyone elses.

Anyone going? No idea what team we'll be putting out but should be a nice chance to see how the youngsters (and maybe Puncheon?) fare against a not dreadful Kettering Town side. £10 a ticket for adults at Rockingham Road.

Not biographies, but I found 'A Season With Verona' to be a superb holiday read. The same for 'The Miracle of Castel di Sangro.' Both following teams in Italy for a season with differing perspectives.

For any side from outside of the bigger players to reach a cup final would seem to be something of a curse. Us, Millwall, West Ham, The Skates, Cardiff, Brum. All toying with financial issues after the main event.

Any concrete source on this or just heavy rumour based on their ownership 'issues?'

It's like that desire for one last night with an ex. If it ever happened you know it would never be as good as you remember yet it doesn't stop you wanting it.

A top ten finish in the Championship this coming season would be enough for me to agree with you.

Lets see what he says to mine. Your french is a little more expansive then mine mind!!!

Really should be put into the bracket of 'He should never have left in the first place.)

It's a bit 'Cock rock' but I do enjoy it.

Not sure about that to be honest. It felt like there was more of us there though, they were so, so quiet.

1) Sign him. 2) Dispose of Danny Seabourne. 3) Sign the 'Ammer anyway. Kaspars Gorkss would be a fantastic signing.

Holy sh*t we're signing David Beckham

No, you're not missing a thing, just me being thick.... you cannot add your e-mails into your profiles apparently. E-mail sent.

Mate, I am interested but can't PM you because you are only a registered user. E-mail me at the address in me profile. Cheers.

I sincerely hope he goes to QPR, purely so that he cannot come back to haunt us...... this season at least, anyway.

The scarf was a reference point for the striker. Schoolboy error.
