Well at least it looks like he'll take the FA cup more seriously than MP.

We're not always a year behind them: 1974 Norwich relegated from the old division 1 1974 Southampton relegated from the old division 1 2005 Norwich relegated from the premiership 2005 Southampton relegated from the premiership 2009 Norwich relegated from the championship 2009 Southampton relegated from the championship We dodged one bullet this year.

You have to add at least £5m for being English.

Assuming they haven't been sold, too.

Neither have Lambert, JRod, Shaw and Lallana.

Glenn Johnson is crap, but I'm glad he's in the squad, ahead of the far superior Nathaniel. Every player for us who gets capped for England gets sold within a year (MLT excluded of course).

The article sums up the fears of most of us very well.

Which means we need to quickly define Yakin as our red and white head coach before June 16.

Of course, by the time we get a new manager there may only be a few kids left.

Yep, probably means when we get a manager all further transfers will involve him.

That’s why we have been able to not agree to any transfers to date, because we have control of the situation, and anybody who is saying anything else doesn’t understand that we are in a strong position with the Saints

For them, or us?

Any bad news here to cheer me up about our fishy friends? Over on the main board things have gone rather mental.

Nerd mode: We can't play ourselves, so a probability of 1 chance in 19, i.e. odds of 18 to 1.

18/1 ?

My guess is: yes. Anyway, the good news is if we meet the North London Yobbos in the cup they'll be fielding a weakened team.

I would.

Maybe without thinking he was texting Fernandes about new players.

True, but my stepladder idea for the championship playoffs only loses two matches, gives third place a big advantage they deserve, while still making fourth-sixth places worth pursuing for many teams. For L1 and L2 the stakes are much lower, so their playoff formats could be kept as is. Edit: If Sky doesn't want to lose the 2 matches they could make the stepladder matches home and away. But that would mean 4 matches for the 5th or 6th placed team.

Because they're not Man Utd, and they know they'll be pissing in the wind?

I think they should be stripped of promotion. That'll cover the 50 million fine. Cheats.
