Oh I can see that yeah, but all the backing in the world isnt going to help if the players are knackered or carrying injuries from 48 hours earlier.

Absolutely - who dictates who we sign, regardless of leaks - Cortese or The Echo ?

yeah exactly, so as both teams are playing on Saturday why isnt this a Tuesday night - 3 May ?

So if he is on £15k and thats what he wants to come here for 10 weeks that would see us through to the play offs (if needed) that would cost £150k.............surely if it gives us a better chance of promotion that is a bargain. Dont see the point in negotiating for next season. If we dont go up he wont come and any haggling over a permanent deal's terms becomes irrelevant so could wait until the season's end.

Although its great from a non [playing side for it to be a Bank Holiday Monday, given both terams have a game on the Saturday why isnt this a Tuesday night game - 3rd May ? Where is the intelligence ffs ?

Thats exactly what I thought when I read it. I have a little more faith reading the Reading local paper however.

we dont have to......just win 2 of the 3 over Huddersfield and 4 points out of the 2 over Peterbro........hey I'm trying to be optimistic !!

Oh FFS, wont one of these teams stop bloody winning !

altho I'm kinda hoping for Hartlepool to equalise....

think it might have been the chalet maid comment

ooh touchy aren't we ??

ahem

They still have to go to Huddersfield and Orient too....as well as entertain Bournemouth.

Incredible isn't it ? I couldn't believe it when I saw they were all playing tonight.

Surpirse Surprise.

agreed but I bet it doesn't happen :-(

Absolutely ridiculous. It is a league rule that if you have 3 or more players called up you can postpone a game. Saints would have no option to object, it is a rule. As for Plymouth's responsibility to sign players available during the season - so if Guly, Fonte and Lallana for instance are called up you wouldnt want our game called off then ? Plymouth have no money, are in administration. I would think getting any player from anywhere is difficult enough. There are other teams and circumstances apart from Southampton you know.

Pardon ? He is what ?

Well Brian Howard played the last 5 mins for Reading in the FA Cup today but has only played 16 League games for them this season so he is by no means a regular.....and he is obviously not out injured. He would do :-)

Back in the Keegan era he would always be outside The Dell and come and stand at the back of the Lower West Stand for the last 10 minutes when they opened the gates. Was always on the same train as me coming back. He is supposedly an eccentric who is quite well off.

:lol:

Would explain why the wheels are already in motion to bring a loan player in, its not as if NA got on his mobile the second Gobern was shown the red after all.

I think the old gentleman who says he was there when Saints last visited in the league was a little confused in saying Bournemouth won as the record books clearly show we won 3-1...........lying old ***** :-) And turning up with cherrys face painted on you looks just so so wrong !

To be fair whenever he has come on in the last few games he has looked quite good, and I didnt rate him particularly, but he looks a decent player. Once again you have fallen into the usual trap of commenting about a specific player who you have not actually seen play.

Oh God no ! Thats about 12 penalties Bmth should have had in the 3 games isn't it ??
