FFS **** off back to the 70's.

Horrified to have been told that 'meetings & discussions' have been 'allegedly' held internally with regards to potential relegation and what it would mean for departments in the club. From an ex-colleague who works with a head of department at Saints.

I made the 'mistake' of joining the Facebook page which has over 30,000 members. Literally minute by minute posts of people asking for x, y & z. Sharing their stories and tactics. It's pretty amazing but also ridiculously annoying. You can also second guess the majority type of person posting on there too. Very pale, don;t get out much and constantly deleting their browser history.

Won't happen, very highly rated at Everton.

Linked with Nicolas Gaitan from Atletico Madrid on twitter.

Thanks.

Can someone please amend the title to paradise.

Based on the book by award-winning author Michael Calvin, 'No Hunger In Paradise' explores the academy system and the pressures and pitfalls that prevent young players from making it as a professional footballer. You can watch it here - free: http://sport.bt.com/bt-sport-films-no-hunger-in-paradise-91364241852638 Would love to hear some of your opinions on the documentary, experiences with academies, development centres and more. Thankfully, Saints are one of those clubs that conduct themselves with much better sense of grace and after care (I'm sure there's a few cases that haven't always felt like this.) When I previously worked for a PL club, one of our satellite centres attending a termly fixture against the academy development side aged U11. In the fixture I was talking to the academy staff about players to consider and their traits to coach. I was then astonished at what I was told next. "The number's x and x are twins from Sweden here for six weeks. We only wanted to trial one brother but parents wouldn't come unless the other could too." The boys both eleven at the time - had a house in Surrey paid for for six weeks, food paid for for the family, travel arranged etc" All the usual you'd associate with a Royal visit. So roughly £20 - £30k spent on trialling two eleven year olds from Sweden, with neither particularly standing out in our evening and the fact they was released after five of the six weeks, suggests they 'wasn't up to the expected standard.'

Young Yann Valery is another good prospect.

Thank you.

ffs knew it would be seconds before the Brereton cdajfu post popped up as it is on every other Premier League mong board. We made a very half hearted enquiry when he was a scholar.

Where is the best place to download the most up to date logo pack? Mine needs a massive revamp, my Arsenal logo is their anniversary crest.

"Don't you know I'm an international hockey coach and Les Reed had written the FA's coaching manual back in 1852. It's all you infidels fault, you shouldn't have moaned about Puel. This is all part of our Southampton Way."

If Bednarek is RB, Ryan Sessegnon is going to have a field day.

What did he make of his loan spell to Liverpool?

Why was his kicking so poor?

Our fans have always been **** at home and plenty of empty seats as always.

How have I never noticed the Zaha’s resemblance of Dwayne Dibley from Red Dwarf!!

Bit concerned about the pitch. Never seen it in that condition before.

Yeah, which promotes the associations to fund research.

It's something The FA are taking very seriously and due to work alongside the PFA with in the next few months. Expect to hear more soon.

I think he's just tied his own noose.

Adds more fuel to the fire after Leandre Griffits tweets midweek.
