Perhaps they will go for Hughes, he is available I understand.

Brighton

Pompey are 2 levels above Southampton FC (Tier 3 v Tier 5). If they get promoted this season it could be quite interesting next as they would then be in the same league as Southampton Saints and Southampton Women (both of whom claim to be the direct descendants of RS Southampton who won the Womens FA Cup many times back in the day, and until recently were the most successful womens team ever). Saints are the team that used to be affiliated to the Football Club, I think it was Lowe who cut them adrift when they were in the 2nd tier. Promotion and relegation in the women's game can be a bit of a lottery, sometimes the FA artificially move teams up or down as they see fit, and some new teams join at a top level if they are called Manchester while others who are called something unfashionable like Southampton have to start at the bottom of the ladder. Currently 2nd in league with 10 wins from 10, but behind AFC Bournemouth who have won 10 from 11, 3-1 to Southampton earlier in the season. Decider is last match of the season, 31 March at Verwood. Suspect only the winners are automatically promoted to Tier 4.

Actually Gabbi came on and scored.

Clasie and Martina lost against Groningen as well. Gaston not in the Samdoria team, think he may be injured (quelle surprise). Tadic 2 for Ajax.

Marks Liebherr with help from Coftwse rescuex us from oblivion. Not his daughter or any other members of his family.

Not been here much lately then. Apart from a couple of nasty posters being insulting there isn't much on here that's even close to as nasty as many threads on this forum. Good to see at last that people are seeing the truth of the situation and that Ms Liebherr gaining control of the club has been hugely negative as those who were not won over by the dismissal of Cortese could see at the time. Having an heiress in charge of the clubbwith no interest in or live of the club was always likely to end in tears.

Fulham had 2 shots on target.

Smallbone

Absolutely right.

Seems to ignore the fact that it was Hughes who (eventually) dropped him, 2 games before Ralph arrived. Was also on the Ben h for Ralph's first 2 games. Really don't believe he was never told what the problem was. He is just an arrogant cock. Still think he will eventually be a good CB, assuming he can learn that he is not a legend in his own mind.

It's not what was reported, check the date and what the report actually says. The point is was it after the team left or before? Is it the reason he didn't go or is it just a coincidence? Of course if it happened it's understandable he didn't go, although the report says she wasn't harmed. It's a shame that a player who has not been integrated into the new system much is missing out on this opportunity.

Looks like that would have been the early hours of Monday morning (night out day after the game). Didn't the team fly out Sunday for training Monday?

Trying to work out who is actually in Tenerife amongst all the moronic comments about how they should not have gone because they are proper naughty boys. Used to be that we were told who was on the plane. Haven't seen Ings or Lemina in any media. Also seems clear Forster isn't there, 3 keepers clearly enough.

Conceding like we did in the 93 minute.is frustrating, but the real problem was conceding in the 69th. The problem was Ralph just got the tactics wrong for the game and this is an issue withe the way he sets up against teams that don't want to attack. Poch had the same problem when he was here and had to work out alternative ways of beating such opponents, he got there eventually because we developed our midfield creativity. Sadly Ralph doesn't have the players to develop in this area so I can see us continuing to struggle against bottom teams. Blaming our predicament on individual mistakes doesn't get you anywhere, all players make mistakes, the trick is to ensure that those mistakes aren't costly by scoring enough ourselves. Even Stephens' blunder really should not have cost us, there were many opportunities to regain the possession, indeed Bednarek did actually do so but his poor header gave the ball away almost as badly as Ja k's silly pass. Long time sin e I've seen so much bad play from players as they showed dealing with that error.

It's any one of 6 to join Huddersfield and Fulham. 3 points covering the 6, with Brighton in free fall. Doubt Palace or. Burnley will go down, but while its only 3 points who knows.

Not true. 3 points against a rival, especially one below you is worth more because you take away from them, especially at this end of the season. There's a reason why these games are referred to as 6 pointers and why yesterday's result was really a disaster.

Ings was 2-3 weeks, if that was based on from the injury he could be back next game. Is that likely? Probably not, but that's what Ralph said.

Suppose it was Charlie ?. Believe what you want mate, though what you say makes some, sense, not the same as what Shane alleged. Having a clause that says we only purchase if he is available for more than, say, 0 games wouldn't surprise me. Would cover situations such as what sadly happened recently.

He wasn't. Watch again. Baird was on the line, Telfer? Was ball watching, Baird realised and rushed out and tried to put a tackle in but was too late. Blaming Baird for that is just plain wrong.

Don't believe a word of it. You haven't seen the contract, nor have I. Shane's comments are bull**** in my opinion, there is no credible source for this and it.doesn't make any sense. The sooner people accept that Ings is our player the better. I understand some people don't like it but it's done.

Professionalism is exactly what Nantes are showing. If you had said they could have shown some compassion you would have had a point.

At least one thing good, Elyounoussi will struggle on the positives ?

Already played for England 12 times, won the Toulon tournament. No chance he will be as good as 16m Norwegian international though so shouldn't be in the team as far as some of the hard of thinking on here would have you believe.

Not dim at all, seems reasonable that they should have been paid the first instalment when it was due (which was probably before the plane was tragically lost). Cardiff are apparently questioning the paper work, that seems more dim. Its a terrible situation, but stalling on legit payment is bad form.
