I think patience is very much the word here. The lack of progress in strengthening the team is a worry but there is a good month before the window shuts.

I would be dribbling in fury. Either that or suicidal.

They should start selling that in the club shop. The old non league paper is a great read too, deserving of far wider circulation.

Only audio highlights then. No, won't be bothering with that. If live video of all home games could be sorted then I would sign up in a heartbeat, as things stand though, no.

Can you watch games live on it?

Thats what Pardew is for smartarse.

A man who knows League 1 and with experience of keeping a team in it, a good person to have. Lets hope he has a few players in mind.

An interesting take on it. A view i'm sure some would have shied away from for fear of being seen as harsh.

Regardless of what others may think, he will always be held in the highest regard by me, he saved us, he paid up when we where about to fold...... I am eternally grateful for that.

We will be on 0 exactly after three wins, a draw and a loss. Saga will be gone, Rasiak will still be here but is on fire as he tries to play for a move. Patterson and Lallana perform admirably and Thomas has a new lease of life alongside Murty. Spiderman starts to show his class (at last) and we do rather well.

I'm hoping to train mine into forming walrus like tusks.

Ultraviolet Director Kurt Wimmer's follow up to his entertaining if brainless film Equilibrium, this film follows the story of Violet Song Jat Sherriff, a woman infected with a vampire type condition in a totalitarian future who fights against the humans who wish to exterminate her and her kind. The special effects are dreadful (if imaginative) the story poor, shallow and difficult to follow and the action scenes seem to be needlessly complex to try and make up for it. It's obviously been tried to be a live action comic in a similar fashion to Sin City but with more of an action emphasis and in colour, but it's just so poorly done that you should realy avoid it. 2/10 (1 point added for the gun based martial arts scene that happens towards the end, but even that is nearly screwed up.)

Nah, unless we sign anyone short of either: a) Lucio b) John Terry or c) Matt Upson then it shows we are still not a serious outfit.
-
He was good for us once he got into his stride. I'm sure Pardew has his sights on a few of his own though.

Footballers live in cloud cuckoo land, bet they don't even know what a recession is.

We are in League 1, we have players here who feel they are better then that and are not willing to stay unless they are on silly money. A lot of what is wrong with the game is due to over spending on wages on generally dissinterested journeymen, the term 'professional' footballer is very much a contradiction in terms these days. If they want to go, let them. We don't need to be a selling club anymore but neither should we be a final payday for a mercenary. We need hungry and determined players to get out of this league, and we should be able to attract ones of half decent quality. Let the players who don't want to carry their weight go.

No real point as such. I just find it fascinating that the issue of climate change can be so totally polarising. Many intelligent and high profile individuals have very readily allied themselves to the 'Oh sh*t we are causing climate change' bandwagon even though there are findings going both ways, anything to seem responsible and caring I guess.

First Griffit, now Smith. Coming soon, Federico Arias? Crystal Palace, the home for rejected Saints wingers.

I sincerely doubt he will be up to speed straight away, but once he readjusts to the rigours of racing he should be ok and up the sharp end in a few races. He may not be up to full fitness and he may be 40, but he was one of the first drivers to be a pro athlete as part of his remit, that will put him in excellent stead. As an aside, how old was Mansell when he won in Adelaide 1994? I know a refew drivers won races in their 50's during the 50's, but if he could win on his return where would that but him in the all time list of 'oldest' winners?

To be fair, it does still feel too good to be true.

I accept that my phrasing was incorrect, but I have essentially said what you have put there in my preceeding statements, just you feel that we don't know. Considering Nicola Cortese's statement though I think it's safe to assume they are clear, Leibherr is a pro, he would let things like that be said unless they are true. Nonethelss I have altered my post accordingly.

We where in Administration, the business had failed. As such there where two options. 1) Liquidate the clubs assets, sell them on and break up the failed byusiness with the money from this partly paying off the creditors, ensuring they recoup at least some of their loses. 2) Get someone to buy the lot, satisfying all creditors that it's the best they are going to get ensuring they get some of their money back, if not all. '2' happened. Leibherr bought the freakin' lot, meaning that all debts where satisfied. The ten point deduction however still applies as the club (f*ck all the holding company balls, the company existed as a front to support the club....) was insolvent in the first place.

It's like watching a fish flap about on dry land.
