The next international break is in March, it is the FA Cup 4th round weekend after the Newcastle game.

What is your definition of a "block"? What if the block by the defender happens 5 yards from the goal-line? Is that not an on target shot? Its very much a grey area in football statistics and analysis.

If its heading towards the goal then why isn't it a shot on target? I'm guessing you'd treat it as on target if it was going it and the keeper saved it, why should it be different for a blocked shot on target by a defender?

Kristof Terreur @HLNinEngeland · 2m2 minutes ago Toby Alderweireld will be out between 3 and 4 weeks with a muscle injury. #saintsfc

The last time Southampton had the same kit for two seasons was in 2008/09 and 2009/10.

Koeman said in the build up to the Man Utd game that Jack Cork might play for the under 21's twice this week to build up match fitness. He starts tonight... Southampton FC ‏@SouthamptonFC 2 minutes ago #SaintsFCU21s team vs @FulhamFC: Cropper, Flannigan, McCarthy ©, Mugabi, Debayo, Gape, Cork, Hesketh, Sims, McQueen, Seager. #saintsfc The under 21's also play on Thursday at St Mary's in the cup against Norwich, so I doubt he'll be with the first team on Wednesday.

From his Liverpool days...

It was the equivalent of that, as you well know.

Between Sammy Lee and the Koeman brothers, the Saints coaching team has a playing career of... - 2x European Championships - 4x European Cups - 7x La Liga/Premier League titles - 123 caps for England/Holland

Yoshida will be back in 2 or 3 league games at most, until then we have Fonte and Gardos, with McCarthy on the bench.

Jason McCarthy will probably be back on the bench until Yoshida returns.

Elia can't play, in order to play in an FA Cup replay you need to have been registered in time for the original game... which he wasn't.

Try something like this...

I ignore it because it is fundamentality flawed. Why would Holy scripture require hermeneutics if it was divinely inspired by an all powerful Deity? Why leave open the possibility for his word to be misunderstood? If he exists he is inept at revealing his word to the world's population throughout time. Are you a Christian? Do you believe the 10 commandments (and the other 600+ often overlooked commandments) are the law of your God? Should they be carried out in full? If not, why not? What hermeneutics have you used to decide that? I'm yet to have someone explain why that thread gave me a "hiding". They avoid the question, as you have done.

Can you name an example of suicide bomber that wasn't motivated by a religious cause? It is largely entirely due to religion that someone acts in such a way and they do so because they take the scripture literally rather than cherry pick it like religious moderates do. Good people do good things, bad people to do bad things, in order to get a "good" person to do a bad thing it often takes religion.

Time after time after time after time after time I put a rebuttal to you and you ignore it and instead go for a petty personal argument or quit the debate. Its almost as if you have no real foundation of any substance to you view, but it couldn't be that could it... surely...?

As I said in response to you saying religious schools shouldn't be banned and you ignored.. Religious schools make it an Us vs Them situation for impressionable youngsters. It isn't at all helpful in the slightest and allows means children are labeled as "Catholic", "Protestant", "Christian", "Muslim" etc simply for fluke of birth being born into a family and culture. Schools should be secular, children should make up their own minds based on evidence and not have labels put upon them.

Care to explain what I said that was wrong? I didn't bother posting in this thread as people such as yourself go off on tangents in debates and don't answer the points you make.

Suicide bombers and genital mutliation are pretty much exclusively carried out for religious purposes. Religious schools label children with the religion of their parents (through fluke of birth), indoctrinate them and create an Us vs Them mentality. They aren't healthy for society and create a breeding ground for the thinking that leads to suicide bombers and religious killing sprees.

Why do you keep quoting me as if you disagree with the post but then make no comment about why or what you disagree with? Instead you have bring up the Clarke Carlisle thread and claimed I "embarrassed myself", and AGAIN offer no explanation as to what I said that was embarrassing.

Religious schools make it an Us vs Them situation for impressionable youngsters. It helps breed brainwash kids into a potential path towards actions of terror if they take the scriptures word. It isn't at all helpful in the slightest and allows means children are labeled as "Catholic", "Protestant", "Christian", "Muslim" etc simply for fluke of birth being born into a family and culture. Schools should be secular, children should make up their own minds and not have labels put upon them.

I haven't seen anything close to a good rebuttal of anything I've said about religion. You insult me, say I've "embarrassed myself", but don't offer a rebuttal. What in the post you've quoted do you disagree with and why?

A cherry picked version of Christianity or Islam allows for the "quiet life" as you put it. But the "moderate" Christians and Muslims are going against scripture and their Deity. If you cherry pick the bit of whichever Holy Book you follow that you like and discard the bits you don't then you are creating your own morality and in which case why do you need the scripture at all as you can do it all yourself?

Really? It is hardly equal rights in the Bible... Timothy 2:11-15 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. Peter 3:1 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands. Colossians 3:18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Titus 2:4-5 Teach the young women to be obedient to their own husbands ......... There are hundreds of other examples of some bizarre "morality" in the Bible.

Such as...? So far you've named one. You've made a statement there is "no chance" he'll be the player he was, I'm not sure how you can be so confident of that. There aren't many English clubs that could offer Rodriguez a higher level of football and better wages than Saints can.
