After earning 83 points last season with a squad that only properly took shape after the January transfer window, I'd be disappointed if Saints only got in the 80's again in 2010/11.

No he doesn't.

Because no two injuries are exactly the same.

A trialist that has an illegible twitter account. He has played in the Saints XI games.

They can only get another points deduction if they exit administration without a CVA. The outcome of the HMRC appeal can itself be appealed by the losing party, be it HMRC or Pompey, dragging it out further. As I understand it, if they finally lose the appeal it will either end in a new CVA being made and presented to creditors, or HMRC/administrator may press ahead for the liquidation of the company.

Yes, there is. They have gone on a massive recruitment drive in the summer with a host of jobs in youth coaching, youth scouting, youth fitness and conditioning and youth medical team. What did you expect to see?

Not really because the starting line up for the Farnborough game only contain probably two players (Butterfield and Barnard or Connolly) that will be in the XI that play Plymouth on 7th August. This game is not a full first team friendly. It is a mix of youth(look at the bench) and fringe players.

I really don't see how you can forget about renewing a season ticket. It is quite obvious you buy new season tickets in the summer. You also commit a significant part of 23 days of your life to a season ticket. Unlike for example a subscription for Sky which could expire at any point during the year and thus quite easy to forget when it expires.

I'm more concerned about David Bick. He looks like a mafia hitman with those sunglasses. btw who gets interviewed wearing sunglasses ffs

I said "under 40%". 10% is under 40%.

Poor docker-p You do realise red and white stripes will return next year don't you? Also red and white stripes, black shorts and white socks have been worn for under 40% of Saints history and not the... ...you claim!

Not whilst under a transfer embargo from the Football League they don't.

Five days ago the Sonko loan deal was announced, yet still not confirmed as going through. This may suggest the Football League aren't happy with it and the embargo remains in place, despite deliberately lowering the playing squad below 20 players. I don't think it is a work permit problem as he was brought up in France and probably has a French passport, plus has lived in Britain for 8 years.

At no point have I denied Antonio and Papa Waigo played important roles. I was just showing how little they started and that even if they were still here, Lallana and Puncheon would remain first choice.

Antonio - started 14 League game and came on as sub 14 times Papa Waigo - started 11 League games and came on as sub 24 times

Lallana and Puncheon were first choice wide midfielders last season and started every game when available as the wide players. I see no reason why losing two fringe players means a change in style is required. Lallana and Puncheon will remain the first choice wide players in 2010/11. New signing Ryan Dickson is pacy and can play left wing. Alot of people seem to have forgotten this. Also Jason Puncheon is hardly slow! Nor is Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who although very young, will likely be used as an impact sub over the next couple of seasons.

That may be a thread in the lounge in a few weeks...

You only need to read the quotes from the Rochdale manager to see it is because of the Middlesborough interest. http://www.rochdaleafc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10441~2097147,00.html

So only 2 more points than last season.

It isn't more than 14k or else they would have said "sold more than 14k". Thus it is between 13k and 14k. Probably 13,400 to 13,999.

You really do like digging a whole for yourself! You said... Half of 15,000 is 7,500. 7,500 is NOT "slightly down" on last season. Over 13,000 is significantly more than the "struggle to make 7,500" that you predicted. :D Yet you still won't concede you were very wrong...

They were also free last season.

What was his reasoning for making such a claim?

It was built 16 years ago!
