A thread from POL And some responses... My favourite comment is this one

Only on SaintsWeb could the bed wetters come out in force over the release of squad numbers

It'd be nice if you actually copied the quote instead of just posting a link

Looks like it's promotion or bust considering the outlay on a new manager and new signings. It really would be awful for them to fail...

The plucky heroes battled hard to score an 89th minute winner against Gosport, who clearly were no match for their more illustrious opponents. The new players seem to be coping well with living up to the legacy of the two-time English league champions

How many tickets do we have to give to Vitesse for the leg at SMS? I imagine they would take a sizeable contingent of supporters like we will over there.

Wasn't Domenech the coach in South Africa when France had a massive meltdown and went on strike?

Working stream

Unnecessary attempt to bash MLG, I thought it was an interesting statistic. Let's be proud of our excellent defensive record and overall superb season instead of pointlessly having a go at one another.

David James. Hilarious stuff watching at home

From POL Here's who Banker AKA Corp Ho wants Meanwhile, seems like the blue few want to give us some lessons about finances...

He wrote this beauty back in July http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28593032

Can't believe how many people would drop Pellè. Had it not been for a stunning stop by Howard, he would have scored and everyone would be raving about him. As it so happens, in my opinion he had a decent first half and was a bit isolated in the second against Everton. Despite the fact that most posters don't rate him on here, he's good enough to start for Italy (let's not forget he did actually score too!). We will win this game easily.

6/10 WUM effort. I honestly can't believe someone would be that deluded to actually have that opinion.

http://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/barcelona-quiere-fichar-altura-4059709 Article is in Spanish, but the jist of the article is that Barcelona want to sign a tall striker, and Pelle is mentioned as one of the options Barcelona are looking at. If they do sign a tall striker than Dzeko or Llorente seem the most likely options but in the event they DO bid for Pelle, how much is he worth?

That'll be the same Rooney, Welbeck and Sterling who scored 3 of our 4 goals Moronic post.

That's because they were all already at Fratton Park. In fact, the fortress was packed 3 hours before kick off and the remaining 200,000 were locked out of the ground.

If we beat Burnley mathmatically it would guarantee our survival. We would be on 53 points and the maximum Burnley could get would be 49 points. We already can't finish any lower than 18th, which is where Burnley at the moment. If Leicester and QPR somehow were to win all of their remaining games, it would take them to 49 points, so even if we lost all of our remaning matches, they couldn't overhaul us. In fact, I think even a point would be enough to ensure that mathmatically we couldn't go down. Everyone from Liverpool and above are already safe.

We would if we were drawn at, let's say Fratton Park I wouldn't mind giving the skates a good tonking with our reserves

Alex Goring Crook ‏@alex_crook 33m33 minutes ago #pompey are 2-0 down after a calamitous OG. Joe Devera tried to clear a cross and hit the ball of the back of goalkeeper Paul Jones

It'll be interesting/amusing to see just how tinpot they would sink to if by some miracle they did reach the play-offs

Maybe it's no so unrealistic... Beginning to wish they had sacked Awford

There was quite a bit of aggro when the played Sunderland if I recall, hence the high number. Most of them probably stemmed from that one game
