Unlucky Pelle!

Or, for the more pragmatic and rational amongst us, how about we wait until Christmas before losing our rag? Just a wacky idea

Good start by Romeu

Will be interesting to see how many crutches Koeman comes out with after half time and which player's arse one of them ends up in

They probably wouldn't have known, to be fair. Saints only announced it last night. But, yep, Everton's protest will unfortunately overshadow proceedings somewhat and not sure why they have chosen an away game. Probably because its live on TV thinking about it...

Seeing as Pompey bought their last trophy (with money they didn't have), perhaps they'll have a whip round to buy one of these too... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33936146

Southampton FC ‏@SouthamptonFC As a new home campaign gets under way, it's time to say #ThankYouMarkus. See you tomorrow. #saintsfc

correct

Comparing history? I thought Portsmouth Community Football Club was founded in 2013...

I see what you did there...

Yes, as far as the football league were concerned. Legally, it never happened (to the football club).... Might be better to compare CVAs. Now, we definitely didn't have one of those

No, Southampton Football Club never went into administration

Yep, it does go against most people's instinct somewhat, but I feel the mutual benefits would outweigh the concerns.

It's a shame this idea was shelved last year.... http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/vieira-wants-u21s-in-lower-leagues-31219526.html Would work well IMO
