Rodriguez scores for Burnley. I reckon he'll still be there come the end of January.

Stuck at work again, but doing a job that enables me to skive off for a bit and follow the action. Wish I hadn't bothered now! Are we doing nuns again or what?

TalkSport just said Sharp not playing today and available for £1.8 million. Seems like a move is imminent to a very lucky club.

Nope, the bit of sea just to the right of New Zealand's south island. (The exact point of the other side of the world from Britannia Road, Southampton) I am not ITK.

I earn about that, but I'm not single. You're tempting me to dump the fiancee.

Danny Sea born.

TBF I think Commons would be a good signing, but people are saying that he does get injured a lot, and I'd hope we're past signing crocks. Could he make the step up to the Premiership too? I'm not so sure. I'd liken him to Peter Whittingham, and I know who I'd rather have.

RIP Bob. I was watching Blockbusters recently on Challenge. Still a quality programme, I'd have loved to have gone on there. Great theme tune too.

I'll be working my ******** off on the Tube. (...and putting in for as much overtime as my body will allow.)

Been saying it for three HCDAJFU threads in the last couple of years. I'm no scout, but the lad has always been a goalscorer, and is still young enough to get better.

While I didn't see the Palace League Cup game, I reckon that we'd have had a chance of winning that with the team we put out, but if we had better strikers in reserve. I think a few of the youngsters could be lining the bench on Saturday. Initially I straight away agreed with the OP, to put out the full first eleven, but then I think about the reason for our poor form, and the players are knackered. Drop Lallana for sure, the three CM's are ok because they rotate anyway, Guly deserves a rest but we may need his creativity, and I'd argue about resting Jos but I don't think we have a replacement. Frazer can rest if Butterfield is fit. The big question is Bart. I trust him.

Crawley Town are trying to sign Rudi Skacel from Hearts. They'll have a hell of a wait on their hands.

Gabby Yorath, get yer vag out. lolz To be fair, I've never minded her at all, I remember a good 15 years or so ago I saw her on They Think It's All Over - and she seemed very knowledgeable then and had a fun streak.

Equus. (Just wanted to tidy that one up)

Rickie was a fat lad before Adkins got hold of him. As an ex-physio, he's also more capable of dealing with crocks too. If we swoop for Commons, which I don't think we will anyway, I fully support it.

These puns are really pony. Here's a pun that'll get you thinking... If we've been planning this signing for a while, then the cheque was probably posted in December. ...anyone spot it? Yes? Then you have too much time on your hands. (Hands!!! There's another for you.)

My word, an HCDAJFU from seasons past. I'd almost given up hope...

I'd sell him at that price (and even as low as £7million), but only if his replacement(s) were bloody good. When we bought him, other teams didn't bid for him because they were concerned about his resale value. Getting £10 million for him is stupid money, and I would take it. Trouble is, it would disrupt a fantastic season, and we may well find ourselves having another season in this league. I doubt Adkins would sell though, even for that money - he knows how much we fans adore Rickie.

The team hasn't gone shyte overnight, everyone has shyte form, and we have ours, but we massively overachieved with a small squad. Now it's January, and we're in prime position to bring players in. This result was arse, but it doesn't reflect on who's better than who.

Goodbye top spot, it's been a hell of a ride.

Striker signing NOW. Winning this now will be massive.

I've gone for a realistic 11 points out of that lot but with signings or hitting form it could be more. Any less would be disastrous. We have to make these six pointers count.
