To be honest, I get that very tram every day and you simply can't tell what sort of people are stood there on the periphery, so I don't really blame anyone for not wading in. While my experience of Croydon in the year or so I've been living here is that (August 8th aside) it's not as bad as its reputation would have you believe, there are clearly plenty of unsavoury characters who live in the area - as with most parts of London, to be fair - so in situations like that I'd be inclined just to keep my head down. Confrontation in an environment where there's no escape route if things go pear-shaped is asking for trouble, IMO.

Must Be Eejit?

Apparently the police have rubbished suggestions of a 12.15 departure. They might want to tell Saints that, rather than the Echo, though...

Shambles

Just think of the interest at 2562% APR

I doubt anyone will receive the email until next week.

I'm not entirely sure that's accurate anyway, Luton have been in admin three times and weren't booted out of the league.

3:10 Comment From Warburtons I'm starting to get a bit browned off about the whole thing.. How much of a grilling is Vladimir getting ?

Subtle one from "CorpHo", who was that?

Brighton have by far the worst disciplinary record in the Championship, with 40 yellow and 2 red cards so far. Leicester are closest to them with 32 yellows and 3 reds. Pompey have committed the most fouls (208), with 31 yellows and 2 reds. We've had 20 bookings (3 - Fonte, de Ridder, Cork; 2 - Hammond; 1 - Connolly, Schneiderlin, Richardson, Hooiveld, Lambert, Seaborne, Chaplow, Guly, Fox) and 2 reds (Chaplow and Hammond)

It'll be a collection of incidents. They had 6 players booked, so that will have automatically brought a charge anyway, and the collective harrassing of the referee on both penalty awards will have added to it. Barnes should have been sent off for barging into the referee, but as he was given a yellow card during that incident, I don't think he can be punished further.

Entirely justified charge, but I'd like to think that Peter Walton won't get away scot-free with what I would regard as the worst refereeing performance I've ever seen.

I would imagine the Premier League has covered its arse there, so if the club went bankrupt, they would simply keep the money.

That should be done now, you might need to clear out your cache for it to take effect.

Most clubs who get forced into bubble trips don't sell out their allocation. Bristol City rarely take more than 300 to Cardiff these days because of it, they just can't be arsed with the hassle.

Joe Mattock's not that much of an unknown, to be fair. He's played for England U21s, although he's probably most well-known for this

There's a form on the OS, print it off and fill it in.

Brighton had 3050, I'd expect we've got similar, although wouldn't be surprised if they put some netting over the last few seats on the two end blocks.

Well he bought Pompey...

Not really. Surprisingly, people don't like being told how to travel to a football match.

Nightly backups

Sorry, didn't see that

93. Of the current 92, only Crawley have won more league points than us so far this year, and they've had the benefit of two extra games. In terms of points-per-game average, we're on top with 2.33. Only five teams have averaged more than 2 points per game this year. Saints 2.33 Crawley 2.31 Man City 2.23 Man United 2.22 Huddersfield 2.16

The original article on the OS says that if you've not heard by the 1st of December then you've been unsuccessful, so could be any time in the next week or so.

As the thread title says, Saturday's win against Brighton took us up to 100 league points for the calendar year. Played 43 Won 31 Drawn 7 Lost 5 Scored 96 Conceded 36 Points 100
