Is anyone interested in a Saintsweb FM2010 network game? Maybe set one up that includes a few people? Just putting the idea out there.

Have it working on Steam Could end up being a collectors edition... the last FM to include Pompey... Hopefully not though, we need our rival, makes our own success that much sweeter

Dean Richards. Maybe could have been a good move but we'll never know because of the injury. Spurs must be sick of the defenders they get from us...

Thing is, if Pompey do manage to get the embargo lifted before January, what club in their right mind would sell them any players? They would worry that they wouldn't get any money from them!

Their squad probably isn't anywhere near good enough to stay up... This development effectively means the first player they buy (or even loan) has the price of their debts to football clubs lumped on top, and that will have discouraged any investors that were hoping to come in and just spend on the players to stay up in January and then hope the prem status was eventually going to pay off the debts. They really are in a mess.

I seem to remember from him being on Who Do You Think You Are that he had some links to Southampton, his grandad being from here or something... seem to remember he wasn't too happy about that particular link lol.

woah... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1223436/Pay-Pompey-Basement-club-Portsmouth-hit-Premier-League-transfer-ban.html Guess the Prem is starting to see that they're financially unviable as a going concern as well now... Looks like they're cutting them loose.

goals scored in the Penalty Shootout are still goals, no?

Aye, don't normally like Mark Lawrenson but he's come out with a couple of excellent one liners about Pompey this season ^^ (first about them finding the only Arab with no money, now about moving them to MotD 2...)

We got the banner of the week award on the BBC website ^^ http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/funny_old_game/8325976.stm Scroll right to the bottom of the link.

Play have a preorder bonus as well, get your name on the cover of your copy of the game.

if something does happen during 2012, the London Olympics will be the worst Olympics EVER

Only that if he'd finished ahead of Button it'd have been him that crossed the line to earn the 1/2 point Brawn needed to clinch the title, a very very minor point I'll admit, but it would have been nice for him.

Flippin' eck, what a drive by Jenson to win the title. Wish Rubens had got the points to win Brawn the constructors title though, he deserved at least that, but in the end the puncture denied him even that little bit of glory.

and he's got it... wonder what his fuel was like.

hmm, not looking so good for Button now... Barichello on provisional pole as well...

So, it all kicks off with practice tomorrow (just about!) and I'm personally predicting Button will finish less than 5 points behind Barichello and Vettel will finish 3rd or worse for Brawn and Button to pick up the titles.

seems weird that the weekend hasn't even started yet, and yet we're not worrying about how Saints will do, we've already won

get the feeling there won't be a load of Southend fans coming on here after the match this time...

whee, stands

uh oh...

w00t

We do far too much walking during matches on the grass! Still, at least the team's fitness is improving.

nice! I like

does anyone else get the feeling we've seen this before? when Crouch/Wilde took over here... everyone was hailing it as a new dawn for the club, but Lowe was still in and around the club, and we all know how it turned out for us... Not saying that's necessarily the case with them, but it draws parallels at least...
