Should have been six??? I don't know what game you were watching, it should have been eight.

I can't wait to see Saints in proper Red & White stripes at Wembley. In fact I'm taking on wood just thinking about it.

Who was the huge bloke who stood on the archers road circa 79-84 who had long hair, and a sort of birthmark/ scar/ burn down one side of his face and seemed happy and capable of taking on any number of visitors single handed and come out on top? Think he was from New Milton?

Puncheon was my Man of the Match although there were several contenders. Every time he had the ball opportunities just opened up.

This is bigger than any European Cup Final bar none. I can't remember a European CUp Final that included Saints:-k

Another question for anyone ITK. Two mates have customer numbers and went to JPS semi. They want to buy a ticket each for the final, no problem there; however they want to take their kids, which they often do, but as the kids alas don't buy there own tickets they don't have customer numbers. How many 9 year olds do? Will they be able to get 2 adult and 3 kid tickets on their 2 customer numbers? Seems reasonable.

At what point are forensic accountants going to go into Portsmyth and untangled and expose what has happened to all the money? The serious fraud office has made a start with Mandric, Redknapp, and Storrieteller, but I'm guessing that is just the tip of a very large iceberg.

Couldn't agree more with the embarrasing MC. As for the half-time entertainment, do what I do, get a beer and you'll never have to see it.

I've been saying it for ages, the play-offs are out of our reach. I would expect to be within the 10 points of sixth place though, anything else would be a disapointment. Irespective of what the fans do and don't want, i fear for AP. Everything I've heard about NC suggests he is not a patient man.

I wouldn't be surprised

But we didn't beat Brentford, or Colchester, or Millwall, or Brighton and so it isn't. Thats the way leagues work. And thats why we're no where near the pay-offs, even allowing for the ten points

Are you his?

And so would I. I never thought AP was a messiah and never thought we would make the play-offs.

And it will take time to bed in the new manager.

I will be happy if at the end of the season we are within 10 points of the play-offs, any thing less I think is a disapointment. We should stroll the league next season, however, if we're not the usual evangelical posters will be sprouting off about how wonderful AP is and how he should be given a chance.

What the F*** is your problem? I hardly ever agree with Alpine but that was perfectly fair comment.

Do you think it's good enough? The most expensive team in the league, way off the play-offs even without the ten points deduction. Bearing in mind the Norwich manager had no pre-season with his team before anyone mentions missed pre-seasons. Yes there are plenty of mitigating circumstances and i'm NOT calling for AP's head. However i don't think it's good enough.

You're on drugs. Norwich was a great result. (fullstop) Tonight was a **kin s*** result.(fullstop)

Yeah thats all i could see so I've bought £34 tickets when I wanted £44 tickets.

Any season ticket can be changed to a different location at any time, subject to availability. All it needs is a phone call or e'mail.

What would you prefer, a Uefa rating so we can host an England under 21's game every 5 years, or an intimidating atmosphere a la Dell?

I have more my dear:smt077

I'm no Engineer, but rather than build 1,2,or 3 sides up, why not build down? Drop the level of the pitch by 20 foot and continue all four sides downwards. This would have the extra advantage of taking the stands closer to the pitch and improving the atmosphere. Just call me Isambard.

I've heard he's taken on a one bedroom flat above The Plume of Feathers on St Mary Street. Just a rumour mind.

Monday morning and its raining again.
