#Sigh# Population Density and Over Population are not the same thing.

Over population and population density are seperate issues. Malta, the only other nation mentioned there and is more densely populated (the measure that the Daily Mail is using....) and is not over populated. Note they have put 'The United Kingdom' in the list as well.... They are just playing with statistics to try and spin a story.

Could there have been anything different about the pitch re-seeding methods that where undertaken in the summer?

More if's buts and maybes. Surely a postmortem should be held after the window shuts? Not while it is in progress. While we wait the more my excitement builds to be fair. Pardew and Cortese are not stupid and a pragmatic view is often far more effective then an instantaneous one.

Glorious. And it would be one of their dubious loaners, Sonko, applying the finish. Double agent?

Sounds as though he had a better day today.

Coleman: "It's all Southampton." COME ON YOU SAINTS!!!!!!!!

I'm tempted to WOOT for victory. F**k it WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTT!!!

Patience young padawan.

Hardly a surprise. Wonder how Do Prado would have done tonight? (No, I refuse to call him Guly, it's just stupid.)

Monty Python reference.

Ha. Bloody typical.

Don't forget the atmospheric pressure reading. Let's not cut corners now.

But it is working superbly. I doubt it'll be too difficult to tweak graffically.

Chris Coleman - 'Saints are the better team...'

Looking at about 3/4 of their squad, they would more or less walk into our team.

They're only there to see Edgar Davids.

Both Adam and Rickie have had efforts on target.

Live text commentary here... as already linked at the top of the forum. http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/liveupdates/live.html

Hopefully with a f**king rocket up their ars*s.

Some interesting games. Franchise v Blackpool Hartlepool v Wigan (Must win for Martinez) Skates v Palace (With Burley staring Edgar Davids despite him having two years out of football.) West 'Am v Oxford (Ex Non-league v Top flight.... ok, barrel scrapping.)

A big night for Aaron Martin too. COYS!!!

Perhaps showing them an example of how 'powerful' their vetting process is.

You do understand that the formalised list of venues included Bristol and Plymouth as southern options outside of London, right? We are not in it, the Skates are not in it, Reading are not in it. 'Tis done and dusted. http://www.england2018bid.com/hostcity/
