explain chatet maid? Have you started listening to games? was real lol moment after all your posts that your opinions are purely based on our comments!

2 points per game gives us 86 if continued, enough?

I sit not far from there and unfortunately I didn't notice any Markus chants yesterday - maybe just missed them

http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/D2/runin.html I like this one, puts it really close, as you would expect, between us and Peterborough. Interesting to see how much their prediction for cherries has dropped

The way points per game works is you divide total points by games, therefore an result where Peterborough do not get 1.81 points (i.e. every game) will change it. The subject of the thread was quite clear from the title so why look at it?

Points per game over whole season (to negate games in hand) Brighton 2.1 SAINTS 1.83 Peterborough 1.81 Hudds 1.76 Cherries 1.65

anything interesting from sky coverage? Saw Lallana being interviewed on pitch, wondered what any pundits said?

watching game never doubted we would win. Comfortably job done. All we can ask for at this pressure time of the season.

Adkins saying that he thought if you rang a manager to discuss a player it was in confidence!

Happy days, looking good as favs for auto

No Howard?

Not sure what you expect for a league 1 bench when Holmes, Connolly and Morgan out injured?

wouldn't like to pass judgement as not seem him a lot (concept lost on few on here!) - but sounds like a good addition. With Morgan and Gobbern available I don't think we are weak in CM. Most raved about the capture of Chaplow and many see him and Hammond as first choice pairing. Fact is N'Guessan and Forte have both been picked for a higher league first 11 several times. They are only here as squad cover / impact subs. It is a fact that they have better pedigree/epxerience than Antonio. With Ox-C as almost new signing this year think we have both quality and depth in those areas ALL teams in this league would dream of.

sorry mate, disagree.

Um, please excuse fairly short blunt reply - only because short of time: 1) Disagree. Of course could be better. Last week had bench of 4 players played decent amount of times at this or higher level in first teams, and couple of promising youngsters. 2) I said pedigree and experience is better than Antonio - it clearly is for both our new signing subs - I hope they do as much if not more than he did. People still seem to be after names they have heard of forgetting where we are. 3) An injuries to someone like Lambert will clearly upset the balance. I do not think many defences would be happy facing N'Guessan and Lallana on wings and Barnard and Ox-C in centre. That is why we have options up front. 4) of course a squad could always be better - if we swapped ours for Man U we should walk promotion. As said above after 7 games we were 9 behind Hudersfield an 8 behind Peterborough after 7 games. Now, a win and 2 draws from games in hand we will be 2nd. If we miss out it will be due to the start (another debate) or something that hasn't yet happened - but don't think it will be weak squad personally

yep, 5 from 7 - and we were alreay 8 points behind Peterborough and 9 behind Huddersfield

find it amazing that players who have playe reasonable amount of first team football in higher division aren't good enough for our bench? Options up front? Guly was first 11 but out injured, replace by LB who is scoring for fun. Two subs - both better pedigree/experience than Antonio Lallana / Ox-C coul both easily play CF if we had injuries during the game. If we miss out, and still in good position, it won't be due to lack of squad.

it was a joke chalet maid!

struggling on 3!

is Delap the highest?

who are our top 10, based purely on transfer fee?

out of those 33 words you typed 23 correctly - 2nd language?

how many of the last 14 games of both saints and peterborough have you seen - I am worried about them but its easy to forget that they will see us as keeping on winning and performing well, and that we actually gained more points than them over that period.

if only we replaced our squad every transfer window we would be fine! you do realise this isn't fantasy football?

no. We are still not sure if we want him, whether he wants too much money, whether we are looking at someone better, or someone cheaper, whether he is good enough, and whether our forwards are crap! Business as usual!
