While nobody wants us to finish 17th, Saint86 makes a good point - if we don't make Europa qualification then it doesn't really matter where we fall between 8th-17th (save for a few quid for league placings which is not that significant in the scheme of things). So blooding youngsters could bode well for us in the future.

By crikey - he's right! What's more, I've discovered by doing some deeper investigations that if we additionally don't include those other goals too, then we have scored ZERO LEAGUE GOALS ALL SEASON!!!

There used to be a poster on here with Gary Coleman as his avatar. I miss him.

"Famous" is never a term I have heard used about us.

Hi guys - just did a quick search for it so may be in the wrong place, but is this the thread that has the details of this week's prayers?

Ummm...I think you need to just be in the US. I have it as part of my TV package.

God bless NBC in the US! All games streamed perfectly on any device.

Blimey Charlie. Gulp! Reading through that report, which admits that it is a censored version of the true extent of what went on, is truly disturbing. However one part seemed quite incongruous with the rest of it... Why was that part of it? It's not illegal to have sex with a 16 year old is it (assuming it happened in the UK)?

Bearsy has informed me he is busy polishing his Arsenal write-up. At least I think that's what he was trying to say, his message got cut off mid-way through. I'm t'riffikly excited for the next installment, almost as excited as I am for the actual game tomorrow! Will be up here when it's done: http://bearsyinvestigates.blogspot.com/

Did you even read the OP?

Joseph Barton ‏@Joey7Barton 24m My starting 11 for WC would be, Hart. Walker. Jones. Cahill. Shaw. Wilshere. Ward-Prowse. Townsend. Welbeck. Rooney. Sturridge. #future [sotoner = Soton boner, obvo!]

The English Defence League table?

You guys know Matt too!? What a treat, and what a fella - the bird he's sh*gging isn't too bad neither!

What does that matter? Regardless of the "level" (ie what competition the game has been organized in relation to), it's still 11 men against 11. Why would the same set of 11 players play differently against the same opposition whether they were wearing red tops or white?

Why? Given The Kraken's interesting post of 11 men v 11 it is certainly possible to speculate what the outcome would be. Sure it's just hypothesis, but it's not impossible to compare. No reason hy that match could not take place one day, in theory at least.

This has really put a dampener on my weekend. Thanks for laying it all out bare GS.

Ah - now it makes a lot more sense why MoPo wanted to move to the area then!

What's so bad about Americanization? Their leagues are way more competitive than ours, for a start.

It's a yes from me.

You mean you edited your post to correct your error (removing the word "net" from the 60k figure) after it was pointed out?

We will not finish in the top 4. Bet on it by all means.

So this "hypothetical scenario" is "should we buy one player or two in January"?

Who is this team?

Pretty relaxed about them to be honest. Fully expecting to lose both, and wouldn't be concerned if we do. Anything more and I'll be pleased as Punch(eon).

NBC stream perfect as ever. Caught the end of the Chelsea game too, cheating barstards!
