At the beginning of the season we were ten points away from the play offs After 35 games we are sixteen points from the play offs I was hoping for a little better with all the money which has been spent

What time is it over there?

Surely he will be playing in the 20/20 Cup in June

Probably not with IPL and World Cup 20/20 in April/May

Team 01 Davis 02 Harding 03 Thomas 06 Jaidi 12 Fonte 04 Puncheon 14 Hammond 19 Schneiderlin 07 Lambert 17 Barnard 20 Lallana Substitutes 28 Bialkowski, 23 James, 35 Seaborne, 10 Wotton, 41 Oxlade-Chamberlain, 09 Papa Waigo, and Connolly An easy win I hope as Swindon have lots of injuries

Really I thought the squad came back early and played a number of Friendlies

Sorry to much emphasis is being placed on not having a Pre-Season The main point of a Pre season is to get match fit which was done

Nothing to do with the football League apparently http://fourfourtwo.com/news/england/49953/default.aspx

The point I was trying to make is that our current results would be quite acceptable if we had done better at the start of the season. I think we now are expecting too much if we expect to win all our games against lowly sides who are fighting against relegation.

Why is it pathetic? Just the views of Football Fans I would have thought

Dont forget the samething happened to both Charlton and Norwich but they started to win early

Well I wont the first few games were unacceptable a new manager should have done a lot better. However things are now a great deal better and the few dropped points normal playing against relegation threatened teams

Do you know how Beckford got the award? It appears to be some method over the whole season Lambert came third and Hoolahan second. Anybody know http://fourfourtwo.com/news/england/49953/default.aspx

No I dont think so it was the start of the season where we lost out big time. Surely if we had another four points from the first few games things would be a lot better a few dropped points in the last few games is normal where teams in the relegation area are fighting hard.

I still think Pardew and the team should have got more points in the first ten games another four or five would have made all the difference.

I know I dont think he has reached his prime and Jaidi has passed his but if they were both say 28 I think they would be the equal of Claus and Killer

I think Jaidi and Fonte are very good in League 1 and if each was in his prime they would be as good as Svensson and Lundekvam possibly.

When was the last time two Hampshire Batsmen were in at the same time in a Test Match Robin Smith and David Gower? KP ever batted with Chris Tremlett or Shaun Udal? *Michael Carberry (lhb) 28 Kevin Pietersen (rhb) 10 97 for 2 in Second Innings today

I should of said Alan Ball because he helped us get promotion but you are so right Dave Armstrong Ivan Golac Dave Watson Charlie George Peter Osgood Mick Mills etc

Lawrie Mac had some good signings but I think Alan Ball was his best

Just spoke to my brother who said the same thing although in his case 48 years

Have we beaten Leeds very often at home seem think not so I think it is about time we won

Perhaps you should do the same but you did ask the question to which I replied honestly. I think tossas like you who try try to police the forum should be banned Everybody knows Pahars was a very good player but like so many is in the past

No dont care a toss

Leeds seem to know how to beat Tranmere 4 1 up at the moment
