What are you trying to achieve SOG?

ditto...and then add in the sad death of Markus. I don't think you could have predicted a worse start to our 125th year.

we really do sound ****.

he was just speculating, although it wouldn't surprise me.

We sound very flat, although that's not much of a surprise i guess.

swindon lead 1-0 down to guly who gave it away, he frankly sounds like ****.

chance for puncheon, just wide of the post. good effort.

only live coverage on their FM freq. dab/online is music.

''there's only one alan pardew echos around the stadium''

True. but the pressure from the chairman hasn't been there, with Cortese it will be a different world for him. You need to be a certain type of person to be able to work with him.

I still think we can get automatic promotion, but i believe we need to get a new manager in quick - otherwise we'll be plodding along in Limbo and that's never great for consistent results. If we hang about and make the wrong choice, then playoffs. I cannot see us finishing outside the top 6 whatever, we've got too good a squad and i believe anyone could get us into the playoffs.

I like Eddie Howe, but is he ready to work under the pressure here? it's totally different the Bournemouth....there's never really been any expectation there in the past few years.

He's already gone, Hart has replaced him.

Fonte has signed for Blackpool, Jaidi has joined reading and Mills has gone to Man City.

seeing as he starts tonight, i think someone is pulling your leg.

That team kind of picks it's self really, although i'm surprised to see Martin and Barnard miss out. but it's a good runout for connolly

Not suprising, this is probably one of the most attractive avaliable jobs in english football at the moment

hit a nerve!

the same people involved in the process of picking them before, the ''committee''. Thats why they were hopefull of still making 1 or 2 signings today, as the targets were still there.

The loan window has closed now until next week, so if we do anything it will not happen until next week.

It isn't true.

club are now looking at loans when the loan window opens apparently.

Spoke to someone a little bit earlier and after all the hype at the sky sports lunchtime announcement, it's not true. Saints have not approached Hart and they are also not planning on doing so. I think we can kill this one now, as has been said - probably just his agent. One name i was dropped as a possibility was Leonardo, previously at AC Milan. Seriously though?? Apparently he has links through to Cortese from his time at Milan. One thing though, nothing is imminent.

TBF this quite easily could again be agent talk. He wants to get his client a move, so what a perfect oppertunity to make up a story about a managers interest that is no longer employeed. it is really silly-season today.
