I'd actually have him over Johnson in my starting XI, quality player - versatile too as he can play at CB.

I'm in the 4 strikers camp, when you have Gerrard that can play a supporting role and Walcott in the squad, I don't think you need an extra striker. IMO this would be MY squad, fitness and situations NOT taken into account. GK: Green, James, Hart. RB: Johnson, Richards. LB: Cole, Bridge. CB: Rio, Terry, King, Upson RM: Walcott, Lennon, LM: Joe Cole, Young CM: Barry, Gerrard, Lampard, Milner ST: Crouch, Rooney, Defoe, Bent.

If Pardew gets us promoted to the Premiership then leaves, I would still kiss his arse. Premiership is the goal, whoever does it will be a legend. (Especially if that person has achieved two promotions.) Ok, Madrid fans might not be too happy with that information, but on the day they potentially do win the Champions League, they won't give a ****.

or hair? :smt103

I went over the Lines once. I was told never to return to the Memorial Stadium.

Every time I've seen him play, he's worked his little socks off so much, he's left the pitch at half time with a ruddy face and dripping with sweat. I would say that Harding and Barnard are the hardest working players on the pitch, big fat IMO though, as everyone reads the game differently, and I haven't seen every game Barnard's played in. Right here, right now, I wouldn't swap Barnard for Ormerod.

Even better, we sign the two and give them Pulis and Molyneaux

Do you get a private booth? Because I really would feel uncomfortable with anyone seeing what I'm doing with it... Semi-seriously, I don't think they'll last. Either animal rights activists will get at them, or some moaning old whingebag will get scratched and sue the pants off them.

Still, nothing can help an act of God. Both Terry and Beckham have slipped when taking important pressure penalties, no amount of practise can account for that. I suppose practising would help with their confidence, but you never know what's going to happen. I hope we're now good enough to avoid penalty shoot outs once and for all.

Knock yourself out chap!

They appear to believe we are signing Francis AND Calderon. I say let's him them for six and sign that Gavin Hoyte that they keep bleating about as being the better of the three players... Not fussed which right back we bring in, so long as: There are two of them, one main and one happy to fight for a place, both want to be here, and one or both will be good enough for the nPC should we get promoted.

Brett has Premiership experience, Barnard has next to none. Aside from that it's tough to choose. Barnard is a more natural goalscorer, I remember Strachan once saying that if Brett had to think about placing a shot then he'd miss. Barnard also works his arse off for the cause, as did Brett. For where we are now, with a 25 year old Barnard or a 33 year old Brett, I'd take Barnard, I just hope he stays clear of his past injury troubles next season.

During the Norwich JPT game, I dropped my uneaten hotdog on the floor of the Kingsland. Was a bit upset, they're not cheap, and I was hungry. Being a Saints fan is all about ups and downs, highs and lows. We cry for the sad things as much as we cry at the good. This is something Man Utd fans and other glory supporting fans will never understand.

Winner: Argentina Runner Up: Spain. (I don't know whether that's possible, I haven't checked.) Underachievers: France Overachievers: USA England will go out: Last 16. English fans shock of the tournament: Rooney injured in 4th minute of the USA game, ruled out of tournament. English fans suprise of the tournament: Crouch to step up in Rooney's absence and bag 4 goals in the tournament.

Short of slowing down time so Calamity James or whoever happens to be between the sticks has time to work out where the ball's going, penalties will always be a lottery no matter how much they practise.

By far the best Latvian player with a girls name ever to have graced the Premiership. What I wouldn't give for Pards to find another foreign hidden gem like Marian.

Undeniably " Abide with Me" in Cardiff, 2003. I was not only proud of Saints, I was proud of Saints fans. Missing out on signing on Jack Rodwell.

Dammit, Jack Rodwell signed a new contract at Everton. Would've been quality back up to Pulis and Wotton.

People honking their horns as they drive past my local because they know someone - I live next door. Cherry Door Knockers. I live on a main pathway/road. Any woman in the world fitter than my missus (About 80% of the worldwide population of lasses) that I can never get. Bottles of Dr Pepper that corner shops have clearly bought from abroad to save money and which don't taste the same. My workplace having a Drugs and Alcohol Zero Tolerance policy when I want to get smashed. Shiftwork. People moaning about the snow in January, then moaning about the sun in May. -Flip Flops. Horrible footwear - can't stand them to the point that I threatened my missus with dumpage if she wore them, to date the only thing she's ever taken seriously that I've said. No-one wants to see your ugly hairy toes, smelly cheesy soles and hear that noise that could drive a deaf bloke insane.

They have SWF in Purgatory? I no longer fear dying.

No football sucks, but signings smooth things over in the summer. The World Cup is a little distraction to life without football, but Argentina will win it anyway so there will be the obvious disappointment from us England fans. I'd happily accept a semi-final spot though.

I only hear what I want to hear. Someone told me that Megan Fox wanted secksy time with me too - I'm still hoping.

Are they renaming the show C*ntdown?

Thanks darling, you can spank it if you want.:butthead:

A settled summer is just what we need. Ok, so nobody in yet, but nobody out yet (that we don't want to lose) and that is key. Fonte, Lambert, Lallana, Morgan, must stay, and rumours aren't appearing in the press, so that's a positive sign.
