I don't know why but I've got a feeling Jaunmi will start this one. I don't have a very good success rate with my hunches though...

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

Isn't that what distinguishes us from them though? They do indeed bang on about insignificant 'victories' (and even 2-2 draws) but we don't because we're a tad more intelligent and sophisticated than that. I'd rather not lower ourselves to their level personally.

Matt Le Favourite deja vu based film?

Cheers Monk. Assume the bid for VvD was put in very recently (last 24 hours maybe) given the various reports yesterday that an actual bid hadn't been made yet? Is there any possible scenario whereby Celtic sell him to us before the next CL games or is that a non-negotiable position as far as they're concerned? Apologies for all the questions!

@ Today's press conference... Journo: "Has the club made a bid for VvD?" Koeman (in a cagey trying not to give anything away kinda way): "I don't know"
