Depends what you mean by 'broke'. It was first reported on a Spanish website a week before it first appeared in the British media.

I'm struggling so much I've started therapy sessions to overcome it. Its touch and go as to whether I'll ever fully recover. Wish me well. #prayforPTSdivs

Cheers Deano. Forever etched in Southampton's history...

I have wondered from time to time why Pochettino's arrival didn't trigger a trickle down of 'his people' into the management and coaching side of things for the U21s and U18s. I can see why things were left alone until the end of the season but am slightly surprised that MP and his team haven't seemingly got directly involved in the day to day running of the younger sides. Of course they'll be involved in an overseeing capacity but I can see where the OP is coming from.

I've not read the treaties so don't know what the wording is that we've committed to.

In that case, the UK needs to opt out of the various treaties it has signed up to over the years (in particular the 1925 Geneva Protocol) whereby we have committed as a country to upholding international law across the planet as and when required.

Full time: 0-3

0-3 The future's bright...

0-2

Lamela signing now confirmed by Spurs.

Another good read.... (IMO).... http://blogs.spectator.co.uk/alex-massie/2013/08/on-syria-parliament-has-voted-to-have-no-policy-at-all/

What's the best way of deciding which countries get involved and when? Maybe there should be a UN and/or NATO rota...?
