Seen Bolasie play for Plymouth several times and not anywhere near our quality. On his day he's good but not that good. Championship player at best.

Actually I'd add Cork to that list also. Thought he did well with a point to prove against his old club, did a lot of the hard work deep midfield.

That is one weird list. You could fill it up with most of the team that played under Graham Taylor and it would make more sense. Geoff Thomas, Carlton Palmer, Andy Sinton, John Salako, that whole crowd. Maybe (Batty and Wise apart) they were exempt. Also wasn't John Barnes picked for about six years on the basis of that one goal against Brazil? I'd put all those (and Heskey) ahead of Bridge in this list. Saints viewpoint of course is that you'll never really see an overcapped player from our place, will you? Now if England would have played Bridge at LB and then stuck Chris Marsden in front of him at LM, THAT would have been a good deal.

We'll lose heavily, with particularly poor performances from the full-backs. Then all the speculation about chelsea signing all our best players in the summer will go away. it's all a cunning plan...

Wonder if there'll be a feature on his toilet break in the Everton game and subsequent goal celebrations...

Can he play left back?

Didn't we beat them in the Zenith Data Systems Cup in the early 90s also? Oh... hang on I think I've been whooooshed...

Definitely. That showed last week when he was willing to drop the Trust like a live grenade in favour of Keith Harris who at least pretended to have some money. Birch is probably wondering how on earth he is going to get out of this in one piece.

Notwithstanding any further twists to come today, isn't it the case that right now we're right where we were a couple of days ago except a few things have been made clearer? PST is still the official, only, game in town. Presumably court case must go ahead now to determine valuation of the fatpipes place. We're right where we were EXCEPT for what we now know - the FL will not accept any other bidders, Pompey will be thrown out of the league if they do not exit admin "before the end of the current playing season" and Chainrai seems to have revealed his plans through Harris, and has been told 'no'. So aside from knowing a lot more and seeing who has played what cards, aren't we just exactly where we were earlier in the week with PST trying to scrabble money together and nutjobs asking where the money is going to come from? I'm not sure, it's a genuine question - has anything material really changed now?

Can see this going back to court again since PKF are court-appointed to get best deal for creditors. Chinny will have another say, I'm sure.

Well that's us relegated then

Does that mean Ian 'Skate' Darke doing comms?

He's seen Jonno Quick, hasn't he?

Gaston put in a shift, more physical than usual. first half anyway. only other difference appears to be that players are now allowed toilet breaks during the game. never seen punch run so fast

Depends if it includes own goals

Is this another thread about Guly?

i remember when we used to sometimes get a clean sheet

Shaw and maybe Cork apart, we're so poor. Gaston in the middle please. Also Lambert seems to be everywhere except where he should be (ie up front), why is he putting in crosses when there's nobody in the middle. Davis pointless in midfield, may as well have J-Rod in there. Someone asked about statistics when Davis plays.. I was thinking - is it true that we only ever win when Gazza plays in goal? K Davis and Boruc yet to see a win this year? or am i wrong, can't find the stats.

what confuses me is where is Andy Android in all of this? Why Guilfoyle instead of him?

Summary, i think: PKF have requested adjournment. Up to judge to decide (tomorrow 10.30am) whether to give it. Portpin ready to go ahead with case and (it looks like) they will request a nice shiny new administrator (Guilfoyle) instead of PKF. Hence PKF want adjournment.

Guilfoyle/P&A had a pretty good go at killing off Plymouth last year. Maybe they'll be able to succeed in killing a club this time?

Home office in Louisiana with a cricket chirping outside. Got the windows open because it's such a nice day. Tomorrow morning the neighbours will again be confused by listening to "bleddy Gazzaniga, not AGAIN" except for Wendy next door who is originally from Ruislip and understands that football is played with your foot, hence the name.

Take the 12m and send them Danny Fox by 'mistake'.

The Plymouth example last year saw their administrator's take about 40% of what they were owed under pressure from the fans and new owner. So, it does happen.

Seems like no time ago Garry Monk was the perennial captain of our reserves/out on loan because he was never going to be good enough. And yet we're the ones bottom with 28 conceded already. I don't know what point I'm making other than THE WORLD IS MAD. Expect a quiet, professional 1-0 Saints win tomorrow. It's the least likely thing to happen, so it probably will.
