Thought Bournemouth fans had a good sense of humour singing "your grounds too big for you".

Didn't our groundsman look after their pitch a couple of days a week to help them.

Perfect get out for the media ban is if a new manager (a strong O'Neill type) makes it a condition of accepting the job stating that he wants them on board.

So all the photos in newspapers are taken by their own people and they don't buy off the paperazzi then!! I bet they pay freelancers for nearly every pic in their rags.

NC brought Markus to the table so I would think NC has loads of billionaire contacts in an around Switzerland. Despite a lot of fans not liking NC he is now the single most important man at the club.

I'm not expecting much spending because from the outset we were told that we had to be self sufficient and now it is even more important since the death of Markus. I would of also thought we may have had a statement of some sort from AP on behalf of the players, it all seems strangely quiet.

Catering in the concourses is awful, crap food, crap service, tried to get a beef madras pasty before half time (head of the queue) and they had run out of those and ordinary pasties. Surely there's a back up stock in freezers on site somewhere.

Pastie was gross, was sat on toilet most of the night.

So we didn't order enough for the start of the season or anticipate Xmas presents.

So prisons can't be bursting at the seams or the Government directive about not jailing burglars etc is bullsh**t otherwise these would have got community service, suspended sentences or something similar. Claus got a drug offence lingering, didn't do his drink driving rehab and in court for assaulting a woman, got a £500 fine. The judge said it didn't concern him af jobs and families were affected and yet when sentences are considered these factors are usually taken into account, totally OTT. The OB didn't try to stop what happened, just wanted it to start so they could film it, get some convictions and brownie points. All this could have been avoided and the whole of the garage could have been fenced off so that the re-directed fans couldn't shortcut across the forecourt.

I am quietly confident and am sure AP will be successful. Will be happier when we see who comes in and hopefully none of our best players leaving. Haven't seen any quotes that Lallana and RL being tracked by clubs in higher divisions.

Thought Poyet said that once Calderon's head was turned to Saints, he could categorically say that he would never play for them again. Did he also say that we were the Man City of L1?

If Palace stay in business but are relegated to L1 still in administration, will they start life in our division on minus points as well? Also, I thought I read that they are moving out and will have to try and ground share with Millwall/Charlton/Gillingham, so, no money and no ground could equal no club.

Just been told that prosecution looking for 2 years for 97% of the offenders, however that is worked out.

It went to Crown Court because they dish out more severe sentences than magistrates and definitely looking at custodial, one of the guys seeing his barrister today but why only about 14 being charged when hundreds took part. Doesn't excuse it but seems to show that an example is going to be made.

Saints fans voted with their feet under the previous regime and now they are voting with their feet under this ownership. We're watching good football in a great atmosphere with great owners and an honest manager playing attacking football using his successful signings. I can't think of another manager right now who I would want in that could improve on this. Obviously would have liked to have turned the draws into wins but we have to remember AP never even had a scouting network when he arrived and I think he has done a terrific job and our season has progressed more than I thought. COYR looking forward to Wembley, thanks ML,AC and AP.

A squad player I spoke to at length recently reckons AP is a very good manager, very honest and Southampton is a great club. Also said that we would do MK over two legs, looking forward to everyone having a great day out at Wembley. Hope he's right.

Good luck to him.

Play off final against Bristol Rovers and Lambert scoring the winner in injury time. Bet some of you wish you were on what I am.

No one can convince me that Mills is better than Holmes or Gillett, his substitution made us worse.

When Hammond was chopped down we were even more disadvantaged by not having him on the field for the free kick, how can that be right, they injure our player, we're down to ten because he had to have treatment.

There's a burger van on the A27 just outside Chichester, I think its called Premiership with all the blue stuff on it. Just can't bring myself to stop and buy anything from it, not even a cold drink on a hot summers day. Most of the blue shirts are gone from the Locks Heath/Warsash area since the cup final last year, the biggest scruff in the area is Claridge.

New owners, new management, new players, same old results. I thought we would win a few in the CCC and give someone a hiding but it didn't happen and now hope we start doing it soon in league 1. I know its a long way to go but without the minus 10 we would still be in the bottom 3. COYR

Worm your way to Radcliffe Road and at the dead end (Northam Road) is Radcliffe Road garage (Ivor), charges about £5. This is about 200mtrs away from the ground.

Are local pubs open or shut
