After Schofield and now Edwards, is this the new trendy thing to follow, instead of getting a tattoo, get a young boyfriend? Seriously though, all very sad, I feel sorry for his family.

So the club wouldn't pursue Grimes because you prefer Downes? Are you head of recruitment?

Agreed. My brother and his lads are West Ham fans because our old man was a West Ham fan born in the East End. My brother was born in Essex but I was born down here and didn't feel ay affinity to the Hammers. I did enjoy taking my brother to the cup game against them the season before last.

Odd thread but I'll respond anyway, I'm from Highcliffe (Christchurch) so nearer to Bournemouth than Southampton but a Saints fan since the age of 10. I don't see why it matters if you're out of town.

No need to book, just turn up and park, pay at hotel reception. Don't know about the price but not silly money. Good business for the hotel, charging for parking and then food and drink at the bar.

I quite often go to Reading with a Boro supporting mate, we normally park at the Holiday Inn, have a beer and a bite to eat there before walking to the ground, about 10-15 minutes.

So baffling that you agree with him?

No, it wasn't obvious, you should have spelt it out.

Surprised no one has mentioned the League Cup Final against United, I know we lost but we played well and should have won. The Gabbiadini equaliser and the five minutes or so after will live with me forever.

My God, what has happened to Soccer Saturday? The pundits struggle to string two words together let alone a sentence.

Plenty of 'Republicans' out in the rain protesting, at least the ones that haven't been arrested, are they fucking idiots too?

I’m a fan of Lineker, he is a great presenter and I would be sad to see home leave the BBC. The problem here is that Lineker went too far by comparing the government to the Nazis, this is disrespectful to so many. It is a problem that many on the left have, consistently accusing the government of being right wing or racist, it really isn’t. They lose credibility because of this.

You appear to have an odd understanding of the phrase ‘right wing’

Selles on Ward-Prowse: "Anything I say about Prowsey will not be enough to show what he means to this team, this club, this city."

Agreed, if I was gay…………….:

Thank you for this, hearing people say “the proof is in the pudding” winds me up no end.

Sounds like in that game Leeds took advantage of the opposition getting a red card, that would be nice for a change.

You've obviously not seen the Arsenal documentary, Arteta is very similar.

The Premier League is the most competitive in the World, twenty teams, three of which will go down every season, another two or three who struggle. That doesn't mean there are five 'shit' managers who we should avoid like the plague.

Do tell

Jones sacked, strong rumours of Marsch to replace him. Now, tell me more about the Maldives, far more interesting, planning on going there myself this time next year.

Can someone tell me a bit more about Marcelo Gallardo, I’ve never heard of him.

It’s nearly 6pm and he’s still not been sacked.

This. Jones is clearly out of his depth but so too are a lot of the players.

I actually laughed when the second went in, what a shambles we are.
