Only if the sales contract stipulates that he shall play for Burnley in all games against Southampton.

This should make them worthy of a nickname, no? Suggestions? Hampshire Hard Asses Britannia Road Bad Boys Poch's Princesses to Koeman's Killers

Cheers, glad to hear.

Derrick and the Dominoes

I was hoping for the riot he spoke of. Would have been poetic with the Clash in the background and all.

Ronnie would have to keep him on a leash that close to London, for fear he wonders off. He's under lock and key at St Mary's.

Yea, dumb question.

What's Team News at 6:45PM mean? Lineups?

Their website is abysmal, especially the mobile one. I'll be playing it on my work computer, just do it, that Australian proposal can wait until tomorrow.

Wouldn't that be an intercepted pass?

Eh, just something to b1tch at.

His first home game though? The defeatist attitude is tiring. After a long summer, the bed wetting, the announcers reminding us every 10 minutes of the exodus and jeering Pelle after 60 minutes, it's exhausting.

Majority possession and no goals, Poch would be proud.

I thought similar but I was surprised to see we've had 62% possession.

Agreed. Davis is the weakest link, IMO.

Start here. http://www.soccerbars.com/modules/soccerbars/bars_by_town.php?country=USA&region=Massachusetts&town=Boston Check the bar's website before committing and depending on where you're staying (hotel or family/friend's house?) you don't have to travel to a bar to view it. The Chelsea game will be on the main NBC Sports channel and every other game will be on what they call the overflow channels, usually at the bottom of the channel list with the pay-per-view channels. The Chelsea game will definitely be on in the bars but I don't doubt you'll find a few playing all the matches. The sound may not be on for the Southampton match but you can view it surrounded by hipster douche bag Chelsea fans that tell everyone they support Chelsea because they used to live in London when they actually just studied abroad for 4 weeks.

Azz, when I google image your name this comes up. Do your inside tips come from the bloke on the back?

I can't see Jay back before Dec 1. I know he was moving in that video but he wasn't cutting and moving laterally, not that he should be at this point but I think it's a long road ahead for the body to heal and be mentally comfortable again. Poch would be bonkers to take a punt on him in January. Maybe he leaves in the summer but not now and not in January.

Luke "make that 2 bear claws" Shaw missed out! He could have ordered a pukka pie, or two, right from the bench.

Your own freelance work?

Please, expand.

While I was just an observer, at the home match against Everton this past April an old man starts to hobble past our row at the 86th minute. From behind me I hear "sit down, get out the way! Give it a full 90!" The old man, with cane in hand, squeals back "I got a bum leg!" To my horror not only was the pensioner being yelled at for trying to safely leave the stadium before a mad rush ensued, the barbaric people of Hampshire purposely stuck those with handicaps in the top rows. I thought here are two Saints barking at each other when we pulled off a magnificent 2-0 win to deny Everton Champions League play (we're havin a larff). While the encounter may have ended when the pensioner flipped him the bird and told him to **** off, it left a bad taste in my mouth and I now look at the British people in a different light. *** I do not view the people of Great Britain in any foul light and only have the greatest respect for them. I tell this story when I can and while it's only really funny to me, I laugh every time.

That was just laying out there and you took it. Good you Mr Tokyo-Saint.

Since St Mary's will be in FIFA 15, has anyone heard if "when the Saints" will be heard in the background? FIFA 14 played a muffled "when the ...." tune at every stadium other than the pseudo St Mary's, or so it seemed.
