Someone was buying cups before Pompey did it? Well I never...

I've just had a chat with my nan about this and she says she has no desire to go back to school.

No, just an observation. Just seems a little odd to dwell on a player that's unlikely to feature, IMO. Agree.

Koeman: "Ankle ligaments. 2 - 4 weeks"

The camera seemed to linger on Ramirez more than usual in that footage.

Obviously gutting for Ings but with our Saints tinted glasses on it probably improves Jrod's chances of an England recall and making the squad for Euro 2016. Assuming he becomes a regular in the Saints starting 11 again of course...

Out for the rest of the season. ACL injury.

I'm sure we'd have all thought the same had the roles been reversed....

So, does the starting 11 pretty much pick itself this weekend (subject to no injuries)? Steklenberg Cedric - Fonte - DvD - Bertrand Wanyama - JWP Mane - Davis - Tadic Pelle Subs: K.Davis or Gazza, Targett or Martina, Yoshida or Caulker, [3 of 4: Romeu, Jaunmi, Clasie, Long (injured?)], JRod Edit: initially forgot Juanmi. Competition for the bench is hotting up!

Anyway, we shouldn't fear losing the manager given recent history. We know that the next one will always be a decent replacement.

Apart from their stories about pigs...

I've genuinely no idea which way I'll vote. Heart probably leaning towards 'out' but head probably leaning towards 'in'.

Normality? Celebrating a win vs Cambridge? In League Two? Don't think you'll get many nutjobs on here disagreeing with you there...
