Take Clasie with you.

I knew a lot of Arsenal fans who said a similar thing after Bergkamp's first season.

Just to be clear, this isn't a comparison of he 2 players, just one of perspectives

Jeremy Wilson has broken cover.

 

Saints have an offer on the table to Koeman and have had no approach from Everton yet.

 

If he talks to Everton they won't get drawn into a bidding war, they'll seek compensation and move on.

 

Our leading candidate is Eddie Howe.

So still nothing new then

Good finish.

I can't imagine that has ever happened. At the moment you can't score an own goal from a direct free kick and you can't score any goal direct from a dropped ball. They also state that a referee cannot 'manufature' a dropped ball, whatever that means.

 

I am struggling to understand this comment: • Offside FK is always taken where the offside offence occurs (even in own half)

I've actually played in a game where that happened. A windy Sunday morning at King George V in winchester. We were 1-0 down and the keeper went up for a corner. The rest, in its hilarity, is history. I have never seen anything like it and probably never will again

Come back Cortese

You're better off going through Christchurch towards Bournemouth hospital and join Wessex Way down there from Castle Lane. Boscombe is ok if you know the rat runs. Alternatively, go from Christchurch, down Bargates towards Hurn and get on Wessex Way there. A35 from Lyndhurst is favorite to get that far though. If you want to miss traffic into Lyndhurst, come off A31 just after Rufus Stone services and go through Emery Down. Hope this helps

Or like this? We were warned haha

Portsmouth v Bournemouth stream here

 

Already we've had rousing renditions of "If you all hate scummers clap your hands" and "Stand up if you hate the scum"

Bless 'em

I can recommend either Ios or Santorini. Both beautiful and hot with plenty of what you're looking for. From talking to people who have been and lived there, the Cycladic Islands are all well worth some consideration.

I can't see Bournemouth going down. They are playing well, scoring goals and have strengthened well so far this window. I think they have too much about them for relegation. I can't see past Villa, Sunderland and Swansea for the drop

I've heard we are due to sign Simunovic. Deal should go through by 31/08/17.

Reports in a Scottish paper saying he's off to Celtic for £4m to replace VVD

Anyone know what time the players arrive? My step daughter wants to do the autograph thing. If it keeps her happy, it keeps the mrs happy and that makes my life easier, so any help would be great. Thanks

Why do you think WH are getting shot of him? His legs are gone, he isn't a PL quality player anymore.

 

I can't believe people are even suggesting it.

29 premier league appearances last season says otherwise. West Ham are a poorly managed club from top to bottom, which could be the reason they have let him go. I stand by what I said previously as it is my opinion. But thank you for your input

He would give us depth in the squad. Short term contract or pay as you play may suit both parties. We could certainly do a lot worse. He may get cards, but Romeu and Wanyama are pretty adept at that themselves. Definitely wouldn't be the worst move we could make imo

So wrong. Signed and shared. Even my WHU fan dad has signed it

It should be noted that US Business company Forbes also did a similar exercise covering major European clubs and their valuations were rather different.

 

Not sure where Saints ranked in that one

Not in the top 20. I can't find anything that lists beyond top 20, but the premier league has a good showing of clubs on the list.

http://www.forbes.com/soccer-valuations/list/

Kuyt, Bergkamp, Overmars, RVP, Van Nistelrooy, Hasselbaink.

Who were the founder premier league/premiership/any other guise teams and what divisions are they in now?

Evidently, given that the Pavilion rebuild didn't start until more than 5 years after they had left.

My apologies. I forgot that people can't identify humour unless they are told by way of lol or haha. I shall consider myself suitably chastised for my glaring omission. Or it could be that you are being pedantic. Is there an emoji or abbreviation to express that? Purely to avoid confusion in future. In case it isn't clear, in this instance, I am being sarcastic

Love that they have safe's in their lockers you obviously can't trust the millionaires around you not to punch a fiver from your wallet and call Australia on your mobile!

 

Looks a decent signing for me, look forward to seeing how he gets on sensible business as usual.

They were installed after the BWP and ND incident

At least one of the youth sides are staying at Winchester College at the moment. I was watching them train (should have been working) and they look phenomenal. Very well mannered bunch of lads too. Teams who have training stays at the college normally play a match there at the end of the week, so I may have to go and watch that as well.

I'm still not convinced. They may be bigger than us as a club, in so far as stadium size and fan base, but infrastructure and current standing makes us a far more attractive and sensible option. Also, we have a wage and finacial structure that is sustainable and we have shown that we will not break that. For these reasons, I am not concerned. Throwing money at players in a desperate attempt to get their signature on a contract just smacks of desperation. I would wonder how close to the FFP limit Sunderland actually are.
