the play-offs are pretty improbable anyway, beating the skates and winning the JPT would be reasonable solace-for this season.

Having watched Arsenal "reserves" yesterday afternoon I just couldn't believe just how useless all their "ones for the future" were. Just complete junk every one of them, even Theo was lamentable.I could still see Arsene being interested in Morgan in the summer because what he has in reserve obviously has no aptitude for top level football.

if 12500 STs take two each plus 4800 for Pompey, free range tickets will be fairly scarce. They will make a killing on hospitality because they'll probably be the only places freely available.

nope it will be a flexible 442 most of the time. all this talk of replacing Mellis leads me to think that one at least of our real midfielders will leave as soon as we make a new signing.Otherwise it just doesn't make any sense when we already have Lallana,Morgan,Hammond,James,Waigo,Holmes and Antonio plus eventually Wotton ,Gobern and Gillett for 4 places.To me we're just signing players and not managing the outgoings from the squad very well

not really AP says we haven't replaced Mellis yet and that we will be doing so. We already have far too many midfield players on the squad.Assuming that the new guy will be a decent player it means that it'll be 4 out of about 8 or 9 in midfield for every game.That's not ideal really as there is no cohesion from match to match.Successful sides have a stable engine room.

Of course AP has been saying good things about him, nevertheless the "first team squad" is really getting top heavy and AP keeps on saying it needs to be reduced.It's players who are actually worthy of a game that will leave not the down and outs because most of them have already had a loan this season and as far as I can understand that rules out another move for 5 or 6 players for this season unless they return to the same club.

don't know about players leaving, with this silly 2 club rule we're running out of options really,Saga,Holmes maybe

No it's 5 days before because we will play Skates on Sunday-count on it.

depends if they can repair the tandem in time

nah we'll get Chelsea away

can't jump any more.He's not really Sol Campbell he's a cardboard cutout. Maybe he needs a few games to get back to the pace, maybe he never will.

pity, their "reserves" were atrocious today, it was Fabregas vs Stoke all the other "starlets" were complete rubbish.

so as he's played for 2 clubs already this season that makes it impossible for him to go on loan again this season other than to Grimsby, right? or not Gillett the same

In fact Skates at SMS is probably about the easiest draw that we can hope for. I wouldn't much fancy our chances against any of the remaining teams away (except Reading) unless of course Notts County beat Wigan in their replay or S****horpe beat Citeh.

wouldn't be surprising really, he can't do anything with a load of crap like Ipswich. Even Sir Alex or Wenger would struggle with them.

of course we would, we always do, especially if they don't get paid again at the end of the month.

well probably not, but it was an unfortunate time to come on all ther same. No time to get his bearings before Ipswich started beating on us. Still we have to save Jaidi and Perry for the next cup round because Lancashire is far far too risky against whatever good side we'll be playing.

Well I'm going to take a week off and get over for the JPT home leg and the 5th round. What a week that will be for me.

Peep, end of, great

Wotton's legs had gone apparently. 2 games in 4 days I suppose

6 substitutions is 3 minutes bit of injury and time wasting I suppose

5 minutes

bollix should never have brought Lancashire on

probably gets a goal bonus,maybe not on much basic

saints have gone to 4-5-1 with Ricky dropping back into midfield
