Just destroyed a bluebottle with Mr Sheen. Little b*stard never saw it coming.

I miss being 'South Coast Team' in the Sun. That was fun.

Well, we're 3 points closer to safety after todays results. One more point and worst case safety has gone down from 47 points to 45. Wigan 31 points - beat Spurs, WBA, Swans, Arsenal - 15 points - 44 points Villa 34 points - beat Chelsea, Utd, Sunderland - 12 points - 44 points Wigan and Villa Draw Norwich 38 points - beat Villa, West Brom, City - 12 points - 47 points Stoke 37 points - beat Saints, Spurs, QPR, Norwich - 12 points - 46 points Sunderland 37 points - beat Spurs, Saints, Stoke - 12 points - 46 points -
Can't he have it before the match?

Live Bands who play Wonderwall by Oasis. Which is pretty much all of them. -
They're a bit busy in the Uzbek League B at the moment, hopefully they will get to Belgium in a couple of weeks.

Burley is that you? Either way I think you're aiming your sights quite astonishingly low. Hammond was a half decent Championship CM, he's not Premier League quality and he certainly isn't a centre half. We should be trying to bring in international class CBs who can take us to the next level. Forren (I have faith he will play and come good, now just isn't the time to throw him in the team) and Astori look like good targets to me. Some people need to accept that some players, no matter how good they were last year and how much dedication they have shown, aren't good enough to take us where we want to be. Chaplow falls into that bracket too, so do Frazer, Fox, Sharp, Lee and Guly.

Myself and the one and only JustMike are hopefully going to the Sunderland away game but will need a couple more in the car to make it viable. Probably driving up Sunday morning and back Monday morning so it would need to be people who can get that day off work. Apply within.

We can beat Spurs, West Brom and Swansea and finish on 47. Swansea can get 9 points of Utd, City and Chelsea so they will be comfortably above it too. Fulham can beat Liverpool, Reading and Arsenal so they're fine too. I'm stumped.

Wigan 31 points - beat Wham, Spurs, WBA, Swans, City - 15 points - 46 points Villa 34 points - beat Wigan, Chelsea, Utd, Sunderland - 12 points - 46 points Norwich 35 points - beat Villa, West Brom, Reading, City - 12 points - 47 points Stoke 34 points - beat Saints, Spurs, QPR, Norwich - 12 points - 46 points Sunderland 34 points - beat Spurs, Saints, Everton, Stoke - 12 points - 46 points Newcastle only play Wham, so 5 wins and Wham can easily get to 46. Where have I gone wrong?

Trying to think of the worst case scenario Wigan beat everyone and lose to Villa - 46 points Villa win all except Norwich- 46 Sunderland win all except Villa - 46 Stoke win all except Sunderland - 46 Norwich win all except Stoke - 47 Newcastle win every game - 51 West Ham win all except Wigan and Newcastle - 48 points Unlikely but we could mathematically go down with 45 points as it stands. That number will decrease every week as teams drop points. Teams below us drawing in the games each other is always going to be the best result (apart from QPR and Reading, we want to win).

Not bad, although I think the most painful thing would be if we started singing songs about Brighton and Bompey next year and just forgot about the Skates completely.

How could I have forgotten Liptak... oh right, yeah. That incident was comical, looked like he was trying to tackle himself for about 10 seconds. He isn't the worst player though, Pulis surely takes that accolade. The one game he played for the first team was a pre-season friendly where he looked like a fish up a tree the whole time he was on the pitch. This culminated in a shot from the edge of the area which went out for a throw in.

Those 2 goals against the Dons were significant only in their timing. They were both near enough tap ins at home to a pretty average Dons team and he has done bugger all else since apart from a couple in the League Cup against League 2 sides. JVD was so good that we brought in Bernard to replace him. He couldn't get in the side ahead of that clueless muppet and a geriatric Graeme Le Saux. Lloyd James is an average, bottom half of League 1 player. We've had worse but there really wasn't anything to his game to get excited about. No pace, no physical presence, limited passing, very rarely troubled the score sheet.

That's 1 game. Granero is normally the player who gets dragged off at HT when QPR are losing. I'm not one to trust Harry Redknapp's judgement but he can't be playing all that well if he's the first player they drag off when things are going wrong. Once playing for Real Madrid is meaningless if you've not doing it any more. Pascal Cygan and Francis Jeffers were part of the invincible Arsenal squad, whilst Man Utd had David Bellion, Liam Miller and Eric Djemba Djemba. I wouldn't have signed any of those for Saints at the time, especially not on the £60k plus a week Granero will demand.

Think that's pretty much what Bradford said 7 years ago.

Guessing you mean Yeovil but yes, they are 7 points clear of Walsall in 7th who only have 2 games left. They may even rest player. Wouldn't rule anything out in that game, we all remember how random League 1 was. How many times did we go to the likes of Tranmere, Walsall and Colchester and get beat.
