On the preview video for the game on sunday he does a lot of completely unnecessary hand movements...just seems to try too hard all round.

Same, same and I know. Just grates after the amount of fawning they did over Brighton when they confirmed promotion.

That's that solved...

On a related note, the stewards in the northam kept telling us that they knew we were all going on the pitch, but wanted us to wait so the other three stands stewards would look worse than the northams

Once again, pathetic coverage from FL show. What have they got against us?

Just noticed Jason Roberts starting and scoring for Blackburn - maybe not as realistic as some people thought.

He's said he's staying, his mothers said he's staying, Adkins has said he's staying and Cortese has said he's staying. Perhaps we should listen to them rather than a few posters on here and journalists trying to appease the majority of their audience (fans of the top 4).

Had there been an announcement asking fans to head back to the stands so the players could do a lap of honour I think the pitch would have been clear in 5 minutes. They did it a few seasons ago and it worked fine.

Applauded yes, but chanting "you are staying up" is OTT.

Not sure about that, from last season alone i'd say MK Dons JPT and Pompey were better.

I was seconds behind this guy, and you make it sound like he clotheslined him - he jumped on his back, Kelvin tried to keep going but fell over and everyone piled on. I was very worried to be honest But he emerged with a massive grin on his face, so it's all good.

Stephens will probably look back at this for the rest of his career as a missed opportunity.

The "you are staying up, say you are staying up" made me cringe like f*ck. I'm all for fans getting on - still have a massive soft spot for Southend - but that was embarrassing and patronising when you think about it.

F*cking hope not.

Heard someone say that the Kingsland, Itchen and most of the Northam were gone. Somehow doubt that's true, although I reckon there'll be a lot of people getting tickets and then deciding whether to go tomorrow morning.

Anyone with a hi-res desktop pic, would be much appreciated

Not too sure about Norris and Halford...the other two, HELL yes.

Two mediocre players from a mediocre team in the league we just got promoted from? No thanks.

...but you'll be grumbling the whole time those two aren't touching the ball?

This. For a long, long time the McCanns defended their repeated public appearances with "anything that helps locate Maddy, we'll do. It's not about us". In no way, shape or form will this help find her. I'm also sure the parents of children who have since gone missing/passed away are also mightily p*ssed off with her attention seeking.

This sprung to mind when I saw Jones and Lundekvam were going to be playing. Hopefully we can get a chant going for him.

Jesus H christ Don't go then!

Who knows. Perhaps he was invited but refused to play because of the previous friction between himself and Cortese? It's easy making assumptions, isn't it...

Right, I cound at least 5 CBs playing on sunday for the all stars then
