Don't miss the complimentary comments from Claridge after the goals.

Thank you. I can see where you are coming from.

Interesting. You know much more about this than I do. Why would they need to go into admin first thing monday?? Why not wait until the day before the court hearing... or at least that week???

Excellent post.

You won't go to the match but if by some fluke, we manage to win, will you desert our message board ?? Will you "do a Corpy" and embark on the world's longest ever gardening leave?? I hope not because it is nice to have a decent skate posting on this board .... even though you are so deluded that you think that you will win !! :-)

Are you sure?? You could be right but I am not convinced that it was not Olly.

Who is Wilshire you are talking about??? This is a Southampton website and we are talking about Southampton in case you are a supporter of someone else and have got lost on the internet.

I am sorry to report that it was Olly Lancashire. I do not like to slag our players off .... but the lad needs to get stronger very quickly if he is to have any sort of future here.

The wages can be paid this week. The Pompey share of the Sunderland FA cup gate was invested on the Saturday night lottery .... and came up lucky. Enough was won to pay the January wages. They are now looking for volunteers to scratch the panels off the 25,000 lottery scratchcards that they plan to buy next week.

Would you call those 15 years the "lazy bstard years" ???? :-) :-)

The FA do not take one third. They take 10%. The gate is shared after deducting all the costs - police, stewards, VAT etc etc. So I think,as the OP states, we definitely made enough yesterday to pay for Lee B.

It is strange how the transfer embargo is always about to be lifted at the same time as demonstrations / protests start. Anyone would think that the"good news" is leaked out solely to deflect criticism from the board!!

He was a bit dodgy in the first half. Most of Ipswich's chances were created from his side. I thought however he was excellent in the second half. He went forward well and was a rock in defence. I hope he stays in the team for the Brentford game. I am an admirer of Harding and think he is the better bet at left back. But he deserves a rest and AP should keep Mills in the team for the next few matches. A bit of competition for the left back slot will do us no harm.

and full of yorkies. No wonder he didn't go there.

Hmmm Fonte captain. We could regret the choice of full backs..... but apart from that , this could be a good team. I quite like the look of the midfield.

What a great name for him!!

If anyone can terminate one, it would have to be Rupes wouldn't it ???

Yes ... but the club control their pitch and they can make sure that it is not fit for play by not tending it properly.

Don't worry. League One will soon be a dream for the Skates. After the proverbial hits the fan in relation to the tax affairs of the chairman, chief exec and manager and the club's accounts have been forensically investigated they will be fortunate to still be members of the Football League.

Thanks for interpreting. You can clearly read Skate - its a strange language!!

I think you have hit the nail on the head.

Interesting. Wasn't it Grant Thornton who were called in to do the forensic accounting on our accounts when we were peddling the line that it was the parent company and not the football club who were in administration ?? Clearly Grant Thornton are the experts on this sort of ting at football clubs.

Why was the contact for only 18 months if Ward wanted to come to us???? Nowadays it seems that most contacts are for at least 3 years (Seaborne's is for 3 and a half). A contract for just 18 months would indicate a lack of commitment on Ward's part.

The funniest thing was when one skate announced that he was doing it for a free ticket because it is normally impossible to get tickets for their games. I never realised that all their games were automatic sell outs. I thought that those empty seats had not been sold. Clearly someone is going round, buying up al the tickets and then not bothering to distribute them!!

He's cup tied for the JPT :-(
