Isn't Herman Hreiðarsson out of contract and technically not a Pompey player until dispensation is given?

The first one is a bug which I have been trying to get them to fix and have reported it. I'm not sure what you mean by the second one, I've never seen anything like that. But that doesn't constitute a "buggy" game. This is a buggy game... or this

All the parachute money in the first year is going straight to the football creditors.

But players under the age of 21 are exempt from the 25 man squads, so it is irrelevant.

How are those two statements connected?

I'd guess HMRC would be interested in this if Lampitt did use this phrase... http://www.pompeyonline.com/2010/07/details-of-the-meeting-with-david-lampitt/ AT LAST An admission of guilt?

I wonder if the taxman monitors this thread in case the internet detectives on Saints Web find anything?

You used the phrase "no matter how we are doing". Surely if Saints were 10 points clear at the top at Christmas he wouldn't leave? I can see him being sacked IF automatic promotion isn't looking likely in Nov/Dec. But to say he'll go even if top of the League doesn't make sense.

Maybe his lawyers have told him to stay away because he does have a history of foot in mouth moments.

Ali Dia >>> Anthony Pulis Ali Dia had a shot on target iirc

I think he means the club hasn't paid the £45 million in image rights to the players that would bring about a £13 million tax bill on it.

Apart from earning only 3 fewer points than 2nd place?

You can get FM10 for under £15. FM11 will likely be out in Oct or Nov. No-one knows for certain yet. Gives you 3 or 4 months of play for £15 until FM11 so not bad value for money. Best thing to do would be try the free demo of FM10 and see if you like it... http://www.footballmanager.com/index.php?p=demo

The game ended with this as the Saints team... Davis Butterfield Reeves Tafazoli Martin Oxlade-Chamberlain Pulis Wotton Hammond Dickson Doble Only those 3 players bold/underlined will start against Plymouth next weekend. Anyone that reads anything into the last 30 minutes is an idiot.

I'd disagree with that. They were 3rd in the Championship form charts I think for the last 23 games of 2009/10.

Today will the usual chants from the Northam of "We've got Antonio" be replaced with chants of... "You've got Antonio" or "We want Antonio" ???

Mirror thinks Saints want to bring Dexter Blackstock back. http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Southampton-want-to-bring-Dexter-Blackstock-back-to-the-club-from-Nottingham-Forrest-article542195.html

Wasn't me. Even I'm not that sad.

Saint_Lamden, Just think it through yourself, it makes no sense... Why does it matter if the away team are at the stadium or not before 1:30pm? Most away teams turn up at that sort of time anyway. Kick off is at 3pm. Gates will probably open at 1:30pm. The attendance tomorrow won't be large and most won't be in the bowl until 2:30pm or later. Any player unveilings would be in the last 20 minutes before the game starts. If Reading are warming up it doesn't matter. All it takes is the player, match announcer and a guy with a camera on some part of the pitch. If a player does sign and appear on the pitch tomorrow this also doesn't make you right. Throw enough vague rumours around and some will "happen".

That all makes no sense what so ever.

Things getting desperate? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/sheff_wed/8873036.stm
