From when he left Liverpool in January 2011... "Jakob Friis-Hansen, along with five other scouts were terminated in Liverpool. The 43-year-old Dane will now leverage its strong network in a role as a scout or possibly sports director. In 2008, Jakob Friis-Hansen under Rafa Benitez 'management employed as a scout for Liverpool FC, but after two-and-a-half years in the job he has now finished. Together with a further five scouts, he has been terminated. - I have just signed the papers and finish at the club. It has been in the air that would happen, since Comolli (sporting director Damien Comolli, ed) was employed, so it does not come as a great surprise, says Jakob Friis-Hansen bold.dk and adds: - Virtually everyone who has been employed under Benitez, has now finished at the club. This is also a couple of Spanish coaches. It is very natural that it happens when a new manager or sporting director to a club. We did never actually meet Comolli, but he has some other ideas, and it is basically fair enough. I've got a nice severance scheme and is free to start a new job. The 43-year-old Dane looks confidently into the future. The time at Liverpool has equipped him with new challenges. - I have built an enormously powerful network in my time at Liverpool. I worked regularly in Italy, Germany, Spain, Holland and France over the last few years, like I've got contacts in countries like Cameroon and Ghana. - I'd really like to strengthen the network even more in the future with a job as a scout for a few years and I have also already received the first complaints from a couple of foreign clubs, "says Friis-Hansen, however, does not reject other positions. - A job as sports director where it really affects what happens on the pitch and the players that are retrieved in, could well be interesting for me. I will not reject anything - not even in Denmark, says Friis Hansen, who has enjoyed his experience in England. - I almost felt like playing again. You will travel around and meet many of the same people you played with and against that asset and it has been fantastic. Besides you do not lace the boots, it has almost been like back then, and I would still like to be a part of ending Friis-Hansen. Jakob Friis-Hansen played as active in the B1903, Lyngby, Bordeaux, Lille and HSV, as he reached 19 games on the Danish national team. As a trainer, he has headed the HIK and Wexford Youths.

Jacob Friis-Hansen joined Liverpool in 2008. Hypia signed in 1999 from a Dutch team, Riise in 2002 and was signed from Monaco, Henchoz in 1999 (is Swiss, not Scandiavian and was signed from Blackburn Rovers) and Jari Litmanen signed in 2001 from Barcelona!

It isn't just going to be him scouting Europe either, he will have his own department... "I am responsible for finding players and create a scouting department with full-and part-time employees." The club already has a number of scouts in England at both senior and academy level, this is the next level.

They aren't free at all. They would all require very large signing on fees and agent fees.

Theo Walcott - Swindon Town Adam Lallana - Bournmeouth Dexter Blackstock - Oxford United Leon Best - Notts County etc etc Saints, like every other club in England does exactly the same to those smaller or less fortunate than themselves. Doesn't make it right, but if you tarnish one club as doing something "morally wrong", Saints have done the same to countless others. Saints have also taken advantage in the last two seasons of major financial problems at Southend to sign Barnard, Oldham to sign Stephens and Charlton to sign Richardson.

I didn't, I stayed in the Kingsland and enjoyed the celebrations from there. What I did see was a lot of people after the initial buzz of being on the pitch have an anti-climax and milling around not knowing what to do. Everyone could have quite easily stayed in the stands and still enjoyed the post match celebrations and a lap of honour (which the pitch invasions ruined the chances of happening).

Yes, but not for the reason you gave in this thread.

You didn't post before I said this in post #27 in this thread... The wink shows I wasn't being serious ffs!

Very selective quoting you used there. I was clearly joking and said..."Throw the book at them I say! :D" afterwards which you cut out.

Nope, they were drinking in the disabled area in front of the directors box. Throw the book at them I say! It really is silly that you can drink in the stands at cricket and rugby but not football. Bloody hooligans ruining it for the rest of us.

It is in the stands at St Mary's.

Apart from the the aqueduct, sanitation, roads, irrigation, medicine, education, wine, public baths, keeping order and bringing peace?

The minimum drinking age in Las Vegas is 21, and the minimum gambling age is 21. Minors are not allowed in the casino gaming areas. A few of them could be facing a dull holiday. Although, all of them were illegally drinking in the St Mary's stands on Saturday (including 17 year old Chamberlain). So who knows, maybe they'll get away with it , but is Vegas really the best idea for a company with young employees?

Here is what you can expect to see...

You'll just have to take my word for it then, because it has happened.

Adkins uses a number of formations throughout games. In a few, (towards the end of a game) Lambert has been put in central midfield.

5 of the 14 top scorers in the Championship this season, were in League One last season! Lambert outscored all of them, Barnard outscored all of them except Holt.

He already has played in midfield in a few Saints games.

In which games has Harding played left midfield for Saints? It is Dickson that does both, not Harding.

Not at all! Marlon King - has 13 previous convictions dating back to 1997 - headbutted team mate Dean Windass - sexually assaulted a woman and then punched her in the face - he has received fines, driving bans, community service sentences, a rehabilitation order and orders to pay compensation on convictions including: theft from a person and from a car, criminal damage, and attempting to obtain property by deception; fraudulent use of vehicle licence document, driving without insurance, speeding, drink driving; a wounding incident while playing amateur football, and two cases involving assault of young women rejecting his advances in the Soho area of London - is on the sexual offenders register for the next 7 years. Lee Barnard - is innocent until proven guilty over an alleged event we don't know the details of I don't want Marlon King anywhere near Saints, let alone playing for us!

He has been the captain of French international youth teams in the past, which suggests he has something going for him leadership wise. In any case, Jose Fonte would be the obvious next in line in the eventuality of Hammond not playing.

Why on earth would you would a character like Marlon King at the club? He is a vile human being and would most likely disrupt the good team spirit Saints have at the club.

Shouldn't this discussion really be about Luke Shaw rather than Alex Chamberlain, after all that is what the opening post was about? We have numerous other threads about Chamberlain.

By getting promoted to the Premier League asap.

Were Q.P.R. found guilty of tax evasion? No Were Q.P.R. charged with a criminal offence? No Were Q.P.R. found guilty of a criminal offence? No Is there a precedent for clubs to receive points deductions for tax evasion committed by officials at the club? Yes
