It turns out there was a good reason for that... @pn_neil_allen: Bah! My two-year-old hijacked my phone! My apologies. Not quite sure how he did it though considering Twitter was not on!!

I was wondering about that - i.e. why do Companies House show it as two charges on the details page but 5 charges on the summary page? It seems misleading for Companies House to say there a 5 outstanding charges on the summary when there are only 2 charges actually in play.

The bit I'm not quite getting is why one entity (the PFA) would need 3 separate charges to cover their potential losses. Why not just one charge to cover the whole lot? Unless they are acting on behalf of three separate players or groups of players? Does anyone with access to the records know how much each charge is for? Maybe Mr Hall could help us out here in his next investigative blog on the financial going on at Fratton Park?

More pertinently perhaps, isn't this simply the PFA saying to the Football League: "By allowing Pompey to defer millions of pounds worth of payments due to players, (having already intimidated them to accept compromise upon compromise), you've specatcularly failed to uphold the spirit of the Football Creditors rules that you hold in such high esteem. As such, we're going to have to protect our players going forward by agreeing to several charges on the club as we've no faith in the protection you purport to offer the players that play in your league". It looks like a pretty scathing indictment of the Football League by the PFA to me.

Adam Blackmore ‏@bigadamsport3m Fascinating morning I've had at #saintsfc - some great stuff from Pochettino on UEFA Cup, AVB, Bale, all for tomorrow's show

@solentsport: #saintsfc will NOT accept a place in UEFA Cup through Fair Play league , boss Pochettino confirms to us this morning

Unless he was being wrong on purpose of course...

Press conference being held in a broom cupboard today I see... Southampton FC ‏@SouthamptonFC4m PHOTO: Mauricio Pochettino is in early speaking to the national press. #saintsfc pic.twitter.com/BElErQnD93

@solentsport: #saintsfc boss Mauricio Pochettino reveals that Luke Shaw has trained all week and is fit to face Spurs tomorrow

Cheers - so he pledged not to have a pointless reorganisations. Therefore leaving the door open for less pointless ones I assume? What is Cameron's defence when presented with this allegation?

On reflection, I agree

Dig out the exact quotes ( in context) and I'll discuss them with you. I said last week that I wasn't gonna shave my arse this weekend but now it looks like we could be in for a warm spell of weather I might change my mind and do something different to what I thought was a good idea at the time I said it. Doesn't make me an arse shaving liar.
