tbh that is quite pathetic. If it was a someone that couldn't stand easily at the drop of a hat or a small child you obstruct their view and force them to stand. By standing you cause a domino effect going backwards up the stand and people that have paid good money to see their team at Wembley miss it because for no real reason you want to stand. It is ok in theory doing it in the Northam end at St Mary's because people know that it will be like that. People don't have to go in the Northam. But at Wembley it is pointless and extremly selfish.

Lloyd James has been fit enough to be on the bench for the last two games so he is likely only missing match fitness/sharpness.

Not in a million years is he better than Puncheon. I'd still sign both Antonio and Papa Waigo in the summer. Both useful squad players.

Jose Fonte Was awesome as usual and imo should have beaten Lambert to the man of the match. As usual for things like this they gave it to the striker/most "famous" player. Not that lambert wasn't very good, but I view Fonte as Saints best player and Lambert second best.

This is the earliest I've been awake on a Sunday in ages. Plus my body clock still thinks it is 6am.

4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42

I'm sure Matt Le Tiss will be there. Surprised you left him out.

I'm not saying I want Leeds to stay down. I just think if both Saints and Leeds are in League One next year, Saints would be favourites and Leeds 2nd. So of course it is better they go up.

Bookies set odds based on the money the public place on teams. They are out to make money themselves. They don't set odds based on the perceived size of a club. Saints currently have a better starting 11 as the match at St Mary's showed. Leeds if they don't go up will lose a number of players and wouldn't strengthen like Saints would and have done.

Bristol aren't really a threat, they won't be near 6th by the end of the season. It is two out of Huddersfield, Colchester, Saints and Charlton for 5th and 6th place imo

If Leeds and Saints don't go up, Saints will still be favourites to win the League next year.

Actually turning out to be quite a good day of results.

Yes!!! 90th minute goal Wycombe 1-1 Colchester

Yep, but Huddersfield could just end up being the team that replace them. A draw is probably the best result in that game as it keeps them both catchable.

Yes, 6th place is the one Saints are aiming for but all the teams currently in the playoffs are very close on points and you don't know which will drop out so worth keeping an eye on all of them.

Would be good to see this... Brentford v Leyton Orient N/A Brighton v Tranmere N/A Bristol Rovers v Southend - SOUTHEND WIN or DRAW Colchester v Wycombe - WYCOMBE WIN or DRAW Exeter v Walsall N/A Gillingham v MK Dons - GILLINGHAM WIN or DRAW Hartlepool v Swindon - HARTLEPOOL WIN or DRAW Huddersfield v Charlton - DRAW (a Charlton win if not) Millwall v Stockport - STOCKPORT WIN or DRAW Norwich v Leeds United - NORWICH WIN or DRAW

Don't mock it, you'll most likely be in it in 2011/12!

Which rules out O'Hara as he signed in January.

O'Hara isn't on a long term loan. He signed in January.

http://www.thefa.com/TheFACup/FACompetitions/TheFACup/Rules The Mirror have made the story up!

You have confused the FA with the Premier League like many do. They are two different governing bodies.

Because Saints had a bye. You can't have a cup competition with 48 teams (24 League One and 24 League Two) and not have teams getting byes. 48 teams - 24 teams - 12 teams - 6 teams - 3 teams in the final just doesn't work!

If this is true real questions need to be asked.... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1260734/Portsmouth-offered-250-000-Spartak-Moscow-terminate-Quincy-Owusu-Abeyies-loan.html?ITO=1490 This ties in with Spartak offering £250k to get him back from loan. Pompey have paid the £500k and have a deal to keep him for the season. The £250k is their compensation for the loss of a player that they paid £500k to loan for X weeks. The transfer embargo was only lifted for the last few days of January for loan or free transfers in order to stop large amounts of debt being added to an already large amount. What is the point in saying we are only lifting it but you can only do frees and loans if they pay a £500,000 loan fee? Two weeks after signing Tosic, Rocha and Quincy and paying their wages, Pompey ask for dispensation to sell players and make 85 staff redundant!

A story in the Times a few days ago which was posted in this thread where Mr Andronikou is accused of vote rigging an insolvency agreement so they get the 75% needed. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/portsmouth/article7069905.ece With the news today that he now claims the debt is £100m and not the £78m of the Statement of Affairs by Vantis it raises the question is he up to his old tricks again?
