"There is no such thing as a free lunch" ! (change lunch to 'holiday' and forget it !).

The league authorities are a joke ! I'm no fan of the muppet (Holloway) but he has a point ! Should Saints be fined also for making 8 changes in the same match ? There seems to be one law for the rich and another for the poor which is why Arsenal and Man U have never been censored but Wolves and Blackpool have ! The whole subject stinks and (as had already been mentioned!) you should be entitled to pick whoever you like from your 25 man squad !! Grrr.........

Ask him if he liked the nickname 'bambi' and if it took a stiff breeze to knock him over or just heavy breathing ???

Seems that Gray had an indiscretion in December which has just come to light and was even worse than the recent one ! I'd be surprised if Sky Sports would have sacked their 'leading pundit' without good reason ?? Also seems that Keys apologised to the lino and that AG refused to do so (on air at least!).

Actually that is one thing we seem to have right now !!

You have to laugh that they "took advice from the civil servants" on abolishing tax relief in the 'private sector' ! How to create a two tier society in one easy lesson ! On top of that you add another million public employees over 13 years and 'bingo' we have a pension blackhole to die for ! Congratulations Mr Balls, great to see you back !

Seems the chief 't**t' has banned all twitting !

How gay would you like him to look ??

See post 35, nice to know that we both spotted his potential, but if he signs and does well, I said it first

Maybe when Alan Johnson finishes his book on 'basic economics' he would make a great chancellor ? In the meantime I reckon that they would take us even closer to the bankruptcy that they almost achieved after 13 years of government !!!

I just wish that one of the Solent interviewers would actually put the question directly : "Your stated club policy is 'quality over quantity' so why are you now complaining about the lack of numbers, surely a team working on a sensible budget has to compromise and strive to live within it's means?".

I watched the Colchester game last night and the only Bompey player that caught my eye was Liam Feeney on the left wing! Thought he was pacy and put over some nice crosses ! Not a defender mind, so he doesn't fit with this particular rumour !

The worst decision was when he didn't book Harley for going through the back of Oxo in the 1st half (minutes later Richardson was booked for exactly the same offence, probably in retribution TBF) ! Had Harley been carded the first time, he would have walked when he did it again in the 2nd half ! Having said that, I've seen worse than him this season for sure !

Don't we have any surgeons on here with proper medical knowledge ? I was under the impression that we covered all key areas on this site !!!

Pretty much as I saw it also, except I think you are being a little harsh on Chaplow. He got his knock fairly early on and it looked to me as if he was trying to play through it before they whacked him again just to make sure !

Whoopee, would have missed the 25th Jan but can do the 5th April ! Good for some, not for others, as per usual !!

I would be a bit concerned if Barnard were to be detained at 'her majesty's pleasure' ! If this were to happen I feel that a real pacy forward needs to be added to the mix ! Anyone know when he is next up before the beak ??

Surely the Liebherr family are feeling positive at the moment, even if only on a purely investment perspective ? Having bought the club for (allegedly) around 12-15 million, they could sell AOC for (maybe) 10 million ! That means that they are on the way to getting their money back in less than 2 years and still have the value of the stadium, training ground, players like Lallana etc, etc.... I would be amazed if they opted out even if they do not have the emotional ties that Markus clearly had !!

Guly - F#ck me Ricky, looks like someone's nicking my hubcaps ! Ricky - Don't worry mate, we're a good 40 miles from Liverpool !

To be fair, they don't really have to try that hard

I can understand his decision. There is a good chance of Bournemouth getting promotion this season and if that happens, his CV is enhanced big time ! Nobody can accuse him of being disloyal or greedy so he stands out from the normal money grabbing mob of usual suspects whenever a vacancy occurs (which is just about every other week !). He is young and still has a lot to learn so why not do this in a place where expectations are low and you are already popular ? He will get a bigger job somewhere, sometime soon and personally I think that he is going the right way about it ! The only thing that worries me is that this decision will further galvanise BFC and make the competition even more intense for us !

IMHO Oxo is the only one of those with blistering pace and has effectively replaced Antonio from last season ! Guly and Punch are not slow but cannot be considered 'explosive', whereas Adam's lack of pace is his only real weakness ! I consider that we only need one more player in the current squad and the overriding priority is that he should be like 'sh#t off a shovel' !

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_2/table/default.stm They've won 5 out of 11 which is not great, but with 5 draws also, they will no doubt be difficult to beat ! NO game from now on in should be taken for granted and (as you say) we need to win the battle first !

I think that we should bump the prices as high as possible for this game, say about £50 minimum ! With the extra revenue we could fund a new player to help us get out of this sh#tty league ! Ps. I am out of the country then and unable to attend but it just seems to make sense to me !

We could through in Pulis as a sort of 'Buy One Get One Free' ! BOGOF would be quite appropriate IMO !
