Pugwash

Injured? Or has Webb told the fourth official to change to number on the board?

Haven't regularly read a national for twenty years or more - mostly political dross, ill-informed comment and sensationalism. Will occasionally buy one if I'm out and about and will buy anything from Times to the Sun (except the Mail), dependent on my mood and need for information or entertainment. Have recently been buying more I's though and quite like it. It's brevity means that they stick to the facts without embellishment and this is very apparent in their football reporting. So often you read a 'match report' in one of the nationals that is a full-page article speculating about Wenger's future or Bale's on-off transfer, with three lines at the bottom to tell you who won the match. I doubt if their reporters even attend the games sometimes.

Great respect for the lad and I think he might just make the squad. Not sure Gerrard's the 'perfect' role model for him though...

Good luck Deano. Thanks for the effort, leadership and grit you brought to the club.

Having had some personal experience of the 'influence' wielded by that particular council, I am disinclined to believe the report. I do believe that if there is something to hide then there will be enormous pressure to suppress any 'leak'.

Wow, FM is so wound up he's posted it twice. Anyway, cyclists in Florida?? I've been here a week and not seen one yet.

Because London's an overrated ****hole?

Even worse to think he was a makeweight in the deal for Gareth Bale - shortly to be the world's most expensive footballer. Great deal there, Rupes - a hell of a negotiation. Levy must have split his sides laughing.

And Morgan as well. Not come through the academy, I know, but a good young role model all the same.

Brilliant!

My cat loves marmite. Just thought you should know.

Absolutely brilliant. Delighted for Rickie. Richly deserved after all his efforts.

Another vote for The Wheel Specialist over at Titchfield.

One more and they'll be whingeing to the FL about how unfair the fine is...

Southampton FC @SouthamptonFC Pochettino signs Grant Holt and reverts to 4-4-2 #lumpitforward

Imagine the size of the one below Fratton Park...

Now I'm not usually 1-4 gloating, but..... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAH!

Not so small. That difference is three times their stadium maintenance budget.

Any news on this one, Turkish?

Don't forget they are the biggest Supporter-owned club in Britain.

The trouble with SDR was that he didn't seem to be a team player and wouldn't work to instructions. I remember seeing NA get really frustrated, shouting instructions at him, and de Ridder just ignored him and did his own thing.

That is quite something. 'Best Fans in the World' is an often over-used phrase, but certainly not in the case of Feyenoord.

It's a scratch team with a poor manager so it won't be easy. However, with four promotion places up for grabs I can see them going up, but not as Champions.

Good point. I seem to recall 'Cash was King' during the last admin. Guess that's why the players were in the box office... earning their 'bonuses' (or was that the season before?).

And posts 51 & 52 illustrate why Isgrove will be better than Sinclair in 2 years' time. (IMHO - )
