Yeah, first time i've ever done this. Seems it only says 'on air' once kick off time comes around. Live and learn.

Hmmmm, still 'Off air' here. Hmmm, it was LYING. Just click on 'match schedule' and then 'play' on the player. Even if it says 'off air' it's not.

Yep, nothing yet. Just re-watching Lee Barnard's pre match interview.

We could really go nuts by scoring a few too. We might want to do that, but let's not go nuts. In seriousness, if we can hold firm in a game like this we can do it anywhere.

Yes. Next question.

Judging from his tweets probably 'illin''

Family stand. Note to Nicola: For the love of god please re-open the bottle bar!!!!

A battling 1-0 to us I think. Oldham will make it very difficult for us. Chamberlain with a solo stunner.

Sadly, at a wedding reception in York. Otherwise it would have been my usual in the family enclosure.

Dover Athletic's Adam Birchall? Or do you mean Trinidad and Tobago international Chris Birchall who is at the Laaaaa Galaxy?

Can't argue with that.

From my seat in the Family section you can ALWAYS hear the Northam even when they are half throttle. If you cannot hear them you ned your ears checking, even my half deaf father can distinctly pick it up.

I need the same kind of idea for Mrs Colinjb's 27th. Just a relaxing restaurant that's not too pricey but equally not an utter dive. And yes, we will be in Southampton for it.

Even Matt Le Tiss agreed terms with Spurs....

Possible that he could be the rarest of things, a loyal manager? I actually respect him a lot for resisting the move.

Ha, they won't be saying that for a while!

Quite right. In terms of a) How much has the addition of Richard Chaplow influenced that? When he came in and started putting himself about and really challenging the opposition in midfield it came as quite a shock, showed us how much 'fight' we lacked in there. Schneiderlin in particular is now really following his lead. b) Our main weakness. Right now, although the obvious example of Chamberlain in injury time can be put down to youthful exuberance. In Adkins we trust on this one! Confidence/Generosity is a delicate tightrope to walk.

I think you hit the nail on the head when you say: "Why did everyone think the "singing area" needed to be near the away fans." It just seems to be a tradition at Saints to have this in recent years. The location of the Archers road end to the right of the East Stand away section just carried over to St Mary's and now it has become ingrained with a lot of the fanbase. Logistically it would just be easier to move it lock stock to the Chapel as the away end can only be easily expanded into the Northam... it would cost a lot to reverse that and get the away end expandable into the Itchen stand. It would also allow for easier seperation of home/away fans for more 'sensitive' fixtures. Logically, makes sense to move it, emotionally..... many will resist.

If he doesn't succeed and gets paid off..... yes.

It doesn't help that it's on ITV now. The most awful dumbed down lowest common denominator b*llocks you could ever expect. A lot of people prefer to watch these games in a pub atmosphere too. So less viewers at home.

It's all relative. A broke club on their scale will still pay him a couple of grand a week. Manage that properly and he will have better financial security then he has ever known since leaving the Skates as a player.

A further clue that Avram and his coaching team's days are numbered?

In the mean time they sold their 'star player' McQoid.... And they still cannot bring a replacement in. He now realises he cannot progress that side any further.

A shame in it's way. Just didn't have the charisma for TV in the end. Would much rather David Croft had a chance to step up. Coulthard is very knowledgable but not exactly enthusiastic, him and Brundle could be quite a dour partnership.

Paul Jewell would be a bit shocked by that i'm sure.
