Our Christmas fixtures are absolutely

Some brighter news for everyone, Chris Adams has been sacked by Surrey Who would have thought that putting together the Dad's Army of county cricket on the biggest budget imaginable wouldn't end particularly well?

I'm going to try turning off the Facebook integration across the whole site for a week to see if that improves matters.

Well spotted, thanks for the testing/research I genuinely have no idea how many people actually use the Facebook integration stuff, I reckon I could get rid of it and possibly stick an AddThis toolbar to the thread pages to keep some sort of social bookmarking functionality. Any thoughts?

There's no loyalty in the game anymore

djharvey, can you email subscriptions@saintsweb.co.uk? I'll get it sorted asap.

Agreed. Still investigating this, need to try a few things over the next week or so.

Yeah, at 7.56 this evening.

All of them

Speaking of that lad, I spotted him at Wembley last week at half-time during the Ireland game!

Lens should be there but haven't paid yet, don't think anyone's heard from Inter for a few years now. Skates are playing in the Vets tournament (still in Leeds, next weekend) but not the main one this year.

Teams currently entered: AFC Wimbledon (2 teams), Airdrie, Ayr, Barnsley, Bury (2 teams), Crystal Palace, Darlington, Doncaster, Halifax (2 teams), Hearts, Kidderminster, Livingston, Man City, Man United, Peterborough, Port Vale, Preston (2 teams), Runcorn, Southampton, St Johnstone, Stoke, Telford, Troon, West Ham, Wrexham.

That forum seems to just be two people posting threads and getting no replies. NewsNow doesn't check sources, it's just an article aggregator.

FAO Chris and Tom, as you've only got Registered User status I can't PM you... are the email addresses you registered with active? If so, I'll drop you a line there...

You're responsible for your own drinks, etc, but other than that, I've got a full set of kit for everyone. We'll be doing the draw for WorldNET after the game, by the way

Squad update after a couple of withdrawals: GK: Chris Summers DF: Matt Marchant, Dan Armstrong, Mick McIntyre, Joe Menzies, Chris Bulpitt MF: Michael Fordham, Kevin Sim (+1/2?), Tom Johnson FW: Steve Grant, Scott Griffin, Alex Griffiths So potentially 15 if everyone shows up, that's about right I reckon. Also, if anyone fancies a weekend playing football in July (Friday 19th to Sunday 21st) in Preston, please let me know. We could do with a few more players for a tournament up there.

There is an update to vBulletin that I've been putting off due to not having enough hours in the day at the moment, so I think I'll probably explore that avenue as well. It could be that there was something in the current version (v4.2.0) that exposes this problem and has subsequently been fixed. There is a major new version available as well, but I'm not yet convinced it's good enough to be worth either the expense or the time it would take to design a Saints skin for it.

We don't. There are two possible problems, I think - the first being that the new infrastructure with better firewall isn't handling things as well as it should, the second being that the company who host the adverts (a combination of Google AdSense and another company) has changed the way they serve the adverts which has had a knock-on effect. I'm not convinced it can be the latter option because some full members are reporting issues as well as "3-posters".

I'm back in the office tomorrow so I'll have a look into it then.

Yes please

Work Off to Brazil for the England game at the weekend though

That didn't go particularly well, did it?

Noted, thanks
