Bazunu will be fine, he has been scapegoated a bit too much I feel. Wasn't his fault we didn't score enough goals for example.

Too many questions on transfers The question about away tickets was good A few ramblers What I have learnt is that the club is in good hands with Jason and Russell

Women's goalkeeper shirt as well, had their sponsor on it

Does he want us to be more friendly to visiting teams, was that the remark?

I'd like to know what's happening with safe standing. They can't blame relegation when we spent money on fancy new screens in the summer.

My only personal hope for him is that West Ham draw the skates in one of the cups and he does his golf swing celebration in front of the Fratton End. Other than that, I couldn't care less if he gets into the England team or breaks any free kick records, I only care about Saints players.

Yup, came last week

We're in trouble on that front, we've got the most yellow cards in the league so far, 11 dished out to us over the two games.

A more than adequate replacement for JWP/Lavia, will give us much needed quality in the middle. We still need another couple of signings but this would be an excellent addition.

We need to add quality. 7 days to the next game, Downes in is essential but hopefully we can get another in as well. We need to get a move on.

We're going to wn today. St Mary's will be rocking

Full respect to Todd Boehly and Chelsea tbh. Made us a reasonable offer and have shown far more respect to us than the bin dippers

Just having a look at away allocations, and I've noticed QPR on their website have stated they've taken the full allocation of 2823. Does this mean we've reduced the away end in size? Anyone know? I thought it was ridiculous we gave away fans last season more than the 3000 requirement so if we have reduced it, that's good news.

This is ridiculous. Hopefully we've made a decision to not discuss any transfer for Lavia until after the weekend and he can play tomorrow

He can swap homes with Prowsey

If Lavia is still here on Saturday, surely we start him?! We haven't got anyone else in centre mid!!

Going on wikipedia, Grimes had one of the highest passing percentages a couple of seasons ago in English football. Dunno if that just means a load of backwards/sideways balls but definitely an RM player.

Time to dust off the black box

Exactly. It may well be that there is a two-year plan to get back and perhaps financially it makes sense to hold something back if we need to strengthen for a promotion push next summer without having to sell, but there is absolutely no way the board simply writing this season off. Top 6 should be the bare minimum.

Normally I like a good cup run but it's just extra games that we really don't need at this stage, so not too fussed we're out tbh. I'd rather we have a go in the FA Cup.

I'm not ITK or anything but I'd be very surprised if we went into that forum without a new signing or two having been announced, especially if we don't get a good result on Saturday, from a PR point of view anyway. And not someone like Joe Lumley!

Referee for this game is a Premier League ref, Darren England, same ref who was in charge of the Liverpool game funnily enough.

Other than both those players being directly involved in both of our goals on Friday, yeah they're part of a problem... What a moronic post.

If we're back in the Premier League we'll be able to sign someone better than Downes and probably for a lot less.

Downes is a West Ham fan so unless they went down next season (chortle) he probably wouldn't want to leave permanently. Get him in on loan for a season and then we can get a top talent from Europe in midfield when we get promoted, that would work. Downes is definitely Premier League quality at 24 so would be an excellent replacement.
