Fan The Flames

good on ya mate, really good read and great dedication

Arsenal could win the prem this year without beating Liverpool, Man U or Chelsea. Next.

Yes thanks, had a lay in, finished of a bit of nagging DIY, the Saints got a great win, a tea of spicy chicken wings and chips and then a few beers. All in all an OK day.

plus 1 I'm really looking forward to the sash kit. Its our 125th year not really a year to get so upset over imo.

Very good result, Norwich had to lose (at home) soon and I chuffed it was us that did it. Win those games in had and go on a Norwich style run and who knows where it will take us.

A surprise win is the best type.

Well done Barnard, it was going to happen in the end.

At the moment you have to start to build within 3 years of being issued planning consent, there was talk of changing it back to 5 years. Another point didn't Lowe want to build a 25000 capacity stadium, until fans groups complained.

Anyhow the players might have been bought with bad credit but they were not illegible to play, the only grounds for any appeal I would have thought.

The long ball produced one effort that game and Barnard missed. Brentford played us of the pitch, they played like us in the mid part of the season. We were great going forward, getting the ball wide, playing down channels, Antonio taking people on along with the quick ball over the top. Recently we seem to have reverted to the ball over the top all the time and results were better in the mid part of the season. At Brentford we started composed and scored and then hit the bar, then the long ball came, maybe because the pitch was so poor, but our chances dried up, imo we were lucky not to lose that night. Hopefully AP we build a team to do it next season.

I don't mind the hoof as part of a suite of tactics, but when its the default or main tactic like it was at Brentford it hasn't been fruitful. We are meant to be building for the future so we should be better than this.

Yes we have improved since AP took over, but so we should with the cash input we have had. My worry at the moment is that we the improvment has tailed off; we were playing some realy good football for a while but recently we have resorted to being a bit of a hoof side. I wouldn't mind the hoof if it was winning games, we have to be more inventive again.

Lowly Brighton nearly beat them on Saturday, my mate reckons they had them in the bag until the manager brought on two subs, unbalanced the side and changed the game. Saying that Brighton thrashed us, so we are fooked.

boooooooooo

West Malling in Kent, braking my long journey up with a stop over in Worthing.

I think you are probably right.

Its more pertinant to us if it affects the relegation places rather the promotion spots. If we lose to Pompey and they go bust do we get reinstated in the FA cup or does the next team get a bye.

I don't know the motivation of these people but it happens, just look at West Ham; with the accusition costs and the accuired debt it valued the club at £110m.

Makes good reading.

This is the thing I really don't get, why is ginger hair funny. Its bordering on the pathetic grown men finding ginger jokes funny. The way you lot are going on you would have thought its the first time you have heard it. No I'm not ginger or havn't got ginger kids, yes I am barrel of laughs down the pub, yes I snig#er when someone farts, but I still cant find anything slightly amusing about hair colour.

Fu#k me, ginger jokes are hardly original or funny, I can't believe people still get tittilated by them.

My mate has just taken home his new born who was born at 29 weeks and she is thriving well after a few weeks in ICU, the technology is there and the staff are dedicated. Best wishes to you all.

On 5Live now, talks with Pompey and Inland Revenue broken down, Pompey to go to the courts to tomorrow and could be wound up.

Congratulations Saints & Mr Liebherr, first of many we hope. Should be a great day out.

Do you have to reply in such a c#ntish manner.
