Ball in from Thomas, all the defenders miss it and Lallana heads it but it's well saved low down to the keepers left.

FFS, Saganowski in behind the defence but the defender falls over and the ref gives a foul. Pardew furious, commentators think we've got a home-favouring ref here.

Throw in from Thomas, flicked on dangerously by Lambert with the keeper off his line but no-one attacking it.

Hammond driving forward well, got to the byline a couple of times now.

Davis thinks he was fouled and had to settle for punching the ball out for a corner......cleared at the back post for a throw in.

Stockport corner again......Thomas cleared well.

Lallanas corner deliveries looking poor again. Mellis fouled in the area, Pardew and Saints fans going absolutely beserk.

Corner to Saints, after great work from Hammond down to the byline.........Perrys flick on out for a goal kick.

Pilkington shot, Davis with an excellent save.

Another corner off of Mellis.....Saints clear, on the break but Saganowski dives when it's 3 on 2 and doesn't get the free kick. Nob.

Corner to Stockport......Thomas cleared for another one. Second one comes in.....Saints player fouled, but ref gives another corner. Third one comes in......Davis punches out for a throw.

Wayne Thomas with a long range, left footed shot...................WTF do you think happened? I'll give you a hint - the corner of the net didn't ripple.

How long did you wait on "please wait"?

Why can't our commentator speak like the Eastleigh one? Then we can actually hear him.

w00t!!

Whilst funny I still find stuff like that disgusting. I hope those who threw punches (there were at least 4 different players) get banned for 10 matches, and the subs who ran on the pitch get fined. And the coaches/managers who ran on the pitch get touchline bans.

This commentary is sh*t, do they not know how to block out background noise?

Early chance for Stockport, out for a goal kick.

Why not? Don't like the new commentator.

Of course. Silly me. Well, let's hope it comes about then.

And leaving Itchen (the so called main stand) looking pretty pathetic. Although I suppose it would be better for players coming out to see the three stands in front of them towering into the sky.

To be fair he is correct. The Liebherrs made their first billion without taking on a single penny of debt.

I see. I still stand by my point though; let's say the grant is £10million, and the expansion costs £20million, then ML might only want to expand the stadium when only having to pay half the money. Does anyone have details of how SMS can be expanded? Isn't it just a case of the pitch being dug in and another tier being dropped on top?

I thought the money you get when participating in a World Cup bid was a grant, not a loan?

But without the World Cup bid we would have to pay construction costs ourselves.
