If we get into Europe (either CL or EL) then I'd expect Koeman to get the accolade

I'll take that as a 'no' then

It's human nature that people will turn Cameron's "reluctance" into a personal attack but, as you say, the opposition will always come across better in these presidential-esque debates because it's always easier to sell change than it is to defend the status quo (hence why Nick "promise the world" Clegg came out top last time). Take the Scottish separation referendum for example...."Yes, let's create utopia" is always going to have a more positive vibe to it than "No, lets stay the same, it's worked OK for 300 years" regardless of the merits of each sides's policies. Blair didn't want the debates (and succeeded in avoiding them) and neither did Brown (who didn't). And you can bet your bottom dollar that Miliband won't be clamouring for them in 5 years time, should he get into number 10 on 7th May (*shudders*)

Can you rustle me up a retrospective one of those for Tony Blair and Gordon Brown too? Cheers

Yep, vs Palace in the FA Cup and Swansea in the PL. Obviously an unlucky mascot....

It is now...

Easy one.... Fonte

I thought Gazza looked very self-assured in goal. Looks like this stint in the U21s is doing his confidence levels a world of good. That said, it's still a massive step up from the U21s to the first team from a goalkeeping perspective.

@paulbelvers Unusual & entertaining preparations for @ChelseaFC away - Florin Gardos scores for @SouthamptonFC in Switzerland. http://t.co/8G5NQ76A8n

They seem to be upping the ante now....

Dear Mr.Grant, Any chance you could add a vine bb code to t' forum? i.e. http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=300215 Yours, Lord Trousers

It does have the potential to be a somewhat misjudged activity

Posted by JWP yesterday...

Possibly worth having a separate thread for snippets from the Switzerland trip.... Koeman just posted this group shot....

...

I would advise against posting Groundhog Day movie screen shots. That only encourages them....

I'm fairly sure that the interview the club did with him after signing specifically mentioned that he'll be able to play against Chelsea
