olly is my name, 32 raised in derby and st albans, born in eastleigh. only one of my mates or family who supports saints, so a bit of a lone star. looking forward to coming down for the reading game with a bunch of royals on 13th april.

Hammond is worse than every player on the bench in my opinion. Odd to start him again.

You should just keep it under your hat. No one will remember your prediction anyway.

Good lord, who is this saint. Mr P. Rogeria?

Early at the bar can mean the difference between one or two pints. if you don't want to sober up then its worth the head start and going a few minutes early. Those who get annoyed at people heading off for an early drink at half time need to find something more important to worry about. It wouldnt be a problem if we employed urchins to deliver beers to us in our seats as they do in Latin America.

Well, it looks like I will be out at Derby beer festival with a smile tonight. Inevitable win.

Read marching powder, and go to the prison in la paz which it's about. you can buy cocaine from the inmates. I recommend a couple of other things in bolivia. first cycle down death road and second take a trip into the pampas near rurrenabaque. finally if you like girls then i recommend parque lleras in medellin, colombia. i'm very jealous, enjoy.

I went to the Derby game last night against Reading, and they were pretty awful. Hardly tested Federici. They had two young lads in centre mid who were a bit one paced. They played one up front to start with, and he was isolated. Reading werent great, but could have had a couple more. If we play our game and are confident in going about it I can't see Derby getting anything. Guly always plays better at home, so we should keep the same 11 to start. Good luck.

Key turning point if we can turn this around. Needs a good team talk, a bit of organisation and bravery instilled at the break. Even if we can get a draw out of this now i think it would be a good springboard. If we sink without a showing I will be rather concerned.

Happy with that team to be fair, even though that hasn't always meant the team have delivered. Chaplow, Sharp, and Hooiveld added to that and we are looking quite stong for the matchday squad. Good luck boys.

Centre back with prem and champ experience is ideal to what we need for the run in. We have looked desperately short at the back lately. Hope he pushes for a first team spot, if indeed he comes in to the club.

Good luck to him. No one should boo any saints player. If hes not good enough then he wont get in the team or will be dropped. Welcome back on the pedalo to the prem.

Cortese is probably used to dealing with businessmen and adults, not childish idiots. It will be interesting to see what happens when they do come 'face to face' now. I also wonder what JP's agent will make of this. Has any footballer in history ever said 'I will play in the reserves til my contract runs out'? If we don't need the money don't sell him. He should have at least waited til feb 1st to have this rant.

This fella cant be that much worse than Ali Dia can he, and he's on a 5 year contract. The mind boggles.

Behave. You're making yourself look like a real bell end.

I dont get to many games, but enjoyed that today. First half was good. second half was excellent. At home with a kebab reflecting. Lallana, Cork and Fox particularly impressed me.

No excuses to miss this one for me really. Any idea if i can buy a ticket on the gate, or is it going to be advanced only or sell out? Much obliged

If the Japanese education system is like the Korean one then in my experience i wouldn't expect him to speak a word of English. Anyone good at sport gets a pass to skip languages. I'm sure he will be honest and hard working though, so if managed correctly doubt languages will be that much of a problem to performance.

Nice to be back to winning ways, especially pleasing to see our best team on paper delivering the goods.

we've seemed to do as well against the so called good teams as the bad teams anyway haven't we?

good luck to them, i would go if lived in the area, and man city v chelsea wasnt on

This! sensible evaluation.

my first thought is that would be his last game for saints. sad but you cant carry anyone so nervous and unreliable in any position. we do need a new keeper.
