It's not obvious at all, is it...? (I made it 87% btw)

@SouthamptonFC: Mauricio Pochettino's pre-#CPFC press conference will take place this afternoon, live on our @YouTube channel. Link to follow. #saintsfc

Arsenal go through on penalties

@kristemple: Sunderland play Newcastle on the Sunday before League Cup tie v #Saintsfc, and both Sund & Newc can't play their home cup ties on same night

Sounds like we should raise the upper tax band to 80+ % in that case. Squeeze as much as we can out of them so they end up with as much money as an ordinary person...

I don't think those two scenarios are mutually exclusive, are they...?

Why do we want to take even more from "the rich" when they already pay a disproportionately large amount of tax?

Maybe list the things they got wrong then we can talk it through...

You saved me having to type out my thoughts NickG - cheers!

@SouthamptonFC: .@gasramirez10: "I am very happy with how the #BristolCity game went. We played good football with quality for much of the game." #saintsfc @SouthamptonFC: .@gasramirez10: "These games are important for me to get my confidence. Now I have to keep working for my chance in the league." #saintsfc @SouthamptonFC: .@gasramirez10: "We know that only 11 players can start each game, so everybody is fighting hard to get into the team." #saintsfc

Turkish to the match build up thread please. Too many people are leaving Lambert out of their starting line-up.

Or...."Always play the team you think is best suited to beating the opposition on a case by case basis"

The same thought occurred to me after I posted it. You can probably swap Cork for Reed but I guess my subconscious thinking was that Reed (from the little I've seen/heard) gives us a more 'dynamic' midfield option off the bench than Cork, coupled with the fact that its "only" Crystal Palace (yes, I know...arrogant and complacent...guilty as charged!), so it should in theory be a good game to blood one or two of the new youngsters. Cork will be a shoe-in if/when Wanyama or Schneiderlin get injured or suspended, but when he's not making the starting 11 I don't think he automatically warrants a place on the bench as he's not really an impact player which is what you want on the bench (predominantly).

Corner created by some good play by Reed too. The 'next big thing' at Saints me thinks

Yay 2-0 Hooiveld
