Matthew Le God

He is a bit. Very one footed, has little pace and his positioning at times is appalling.

It looked like Sharp was behind Tadanari Lee in the pecking order until Tadanari Lee's injury.

If you take squad selection, team selection and tactics for the finals this summer in isolation he looks clueless. Yes, I know he was successful in the past, but he is no longer the Dutch manager for a reason.

I didn't say he was on a level with Taylor, just that you can't judge Buttner on the views of one international manager who has now quit due to mistakes he made this summer.

Ask Bert van Marwijk, the clueless (now former) manager of the Netherlands. Le Tissier didn't get many England caps, doesn't mean he was bad, just that the likes of Graham Taylor didn't pick him.

Yep, Neville's ability as a pundit has come as a shock to everyone.

The two keepers for the under 18's in 2012/13 (Will Britt and Chris Johns) are 2nd year scholars.

Dan Harding and Ryan Dickson to leave. Buttner and Fox to compete for left back, with 16 year old Shaw to bring through in future years. I doubt Hammond's position in the squad is effected too much by Buttner signing.

Why does signing a left back/left midfielder mean a central midfielder will be off? If anyone's place in the Saints 25 man squad is under threat, it will be Dan Harding.

He has hosted Saints end of season awards for the last two years, I'd imagine he has some good contacts at the club.

I'd imagine Alan Shearer will be quite nice about us on Match of the Day as well.

Sounds like he was doing the "what does the view look like from your season ticket seat" photos for the ticketing website.

Crystal Palace now with the same design as Barnsley's... http://www.cpfc.co.uk/page/Home Saints to change soon?

Late July probably.

The article says 4m EURO, not £. "vier miljoen euro"

He could indeed. Even I think it is a tad unlikely though!

Are you being serious? It is Robin Van Persie's head photoshopped onto Rickie Lambert's body.

Do you think I'm wrong then?

Yep, he might. But he may want to keep it quiet. I doubt his teammates are clued up on world affairs, but you never know.

Most of them probably think this is a documentary... Saints even employ 6 teachers to work with them at Staplewood. I think they have their minds on things other than academia.

Considering we have been in the 2nd and 3rd tiers for the past 7 years, it isn't much of a drop.

I doubt Saints academy players are up on their world politics.
