First goal in the league away from home for almost a year. But hell yeah, well done.

2nd assist for Dons 4th. Now been subbed.

Anthony, maybe can't blame the parents for this one. Should make a future Pompey player.

Looking good for Harding (and Poke), 3-0 up at Southport, will be top of the league if all games stay as they are.

MK Dons 3-1 up, Sam got the assist for 1st.

I would hope he would. You never mentioned playing for us, the argument was about them playing in the PL. Any which way people try to argue it JWP is relaively disappointing even for his age and for his number of PL games. All of the players that you specifically mentioned were showing much more than JWP at the same or younger age, some with us, some elsewhere.

What league was Shaw playing in? He is younger than JWP. Oxlade is not yet 22, already played 4 seasons/116 games in the PL. Walcott had also played 3 PL seasons by the time he was JWP's age, he has now played 9 seasons in the PL and is still only 26. Bale was in his 4th PL season at JWP's age.

Almost scored, but didn't get the final touch for MK goal.

There are a lot of seriously good teams in the Europa this season. I think it will be very tough to get through the Group stages, but I know Ronald will make the best effort possible, unlike West Ham. Of course we can do it, but don't underestimate the quality of the teams likely to be involved in the groups, there will be very few minnows left.

Not sure you can really say they turned Man City over. They lost at home 0-1 and won in Manchester 1-0 but went out on penalties. This was in 2008, just before the Sheikh Mansour takeover. Still it was a credible result and they will not be pushovers.

Oh dear, I've heard some rubbish, but that really is taking the biscuit. Please just accept that on Thursday JWP made a right hash, but luckily Pelle was on hand to make amends. Thats not really criticising JWP, everyone makes mistakes, but to try and dress that up as some sort of positive is just plain daft.

Maybe he meant Sociedad rather than Madrid. I think he would do well somewhere like La Liga where technical skill is at a premium but pace and aggression are not so critical.

Pretty slow at bringing in the 6 players so far aren't we. Hopefully you were joking. Over 3 weeks until the transfer window closes, we know we still want 2 but thats not anything to do with being slow.

Yep, thats why I mentioned him in the Notinghamtpn thread: http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?54827-Nottinghampton#.VcXTsflVhBc Can't really believe we are interested in him, though he is surprisingly younger than I thought (25)

Dale Stephens was playing for Brighton as well. Could be s lot of ex Saints when Liverhampton play Arsenal this srason, potentially 6.

Looking forward to 2023. Beaten Spuds more than any other team (sadly also lost to them more than any other) 184 days supporting Saints LOL

Chocks away Ginger, get the old girl up in the air. Its actually a Dash-8, no need to worry.

"With just four minutes played, James Ward-Prowse failed to control a deflected cross and the ball fell to Pelle, who took one touch to change direction and set himself before firing home on his left foot." [bBC] Watching it he made a complete dogs breakfast of controlling the ball. I don't want to make anything of this, but this is why "assists" are so over-rated. I would guess Prowsey will get an assist, but it was a complete **** up that fell nicely for Pelle to score. But well done to everyone, stroll in the park, never stretched, never really threatened, 5 goal cushion. Bring on the next "opposition".

Now its confirmed, Minsk won.

Not yet we're not. But looks good. Minsk need to hold on, and Vojvodina looks nailed on but still 35 minutes left. We should be 21st.

Maybe we are going 3-5-2, Martina can play as defensive midfield. Its certainly the way the team is listed.

Kept Fox out of the team at Forest though. Played 20 times during our Championship season (Fox played 41). Was miles better as a defender than Danny Fox would ever be. Its not re-writing history.

Technically they only need 3 unless we score. Extra time and pens would follow.

Good man. If only a few more players looked to play for enjoyment rather than just chasing the money and also respect for turning down the Skates.
