The pitch was the same for both sides. The first ball was out of shape but that was soon changed. We lost because we were out thought by the manager and outplayed on the pitch. We struggle against pace on the wings andHolloway knows that. The team were poor but I am particulalry worried by Sharp. He is either unfit ot not good enough for this level.

Rupert Lowe will never come back for a second term........

Considering the grief that Kelvin had to take when he first signd I think he has done brilliantly for the club to stick with us to to turn a large part of the fan base around. His performace againt Leeds was awesome and whilst he is not the complete goalkeeper, he is easily for me our third best after Shilts and Niemi - perhaps alongside Flowers. Being a legend is about doing it year after year. Sadly Keegan's 2nd year was spent mostly in the treatment room so we only really got one good season out of him. If we go up again Davies will have played a huge part in that process - legend or not.

58 Born Kings College Hospital Lived in south London until 10 then moved to West Wickham nr Bromley. Now live in the shadow of Leeds Castle. First match 1966 at Selhurst Park (nearest team to me were Palarse). Lost 1-0. Big Chiv sent off. First home match 1-0 v Charlton 1966. I think Chiv pulled the ball back for Paine to score (or vice versa). Went with a mate who supported Saints, got the bug and that was it. Claim to fame - jumped over the wall at Orient just before it collapsed and walked off the pitch with the players. LIke that could happen now!

Even though he had £6m to spend in keeping us up and brought in rubbish? Redknapp said himself he didn't know why he was at saints and clearly wasn;t bothered about us - his thumbs up to Mandaric proved that after the Poopey drubbing. You have to admire the man's brass neck though for having a pop at the CPS. Cases are only brought to court if they are in the public interesr to do so and there is a realistic chance of a conviction. It was not brought because of he he is as he says (no ego there then). The CPS are accountable for spending public money and have to justify their decsions to prosecute. Sadly the jury system in this country means that many people walk free when they shouldn't. Whether he was guilty of not I don't know, but to pretend that you don't know what you are doing when you live in a mutli million pound house is just laughable. He did a number of the jury and they fell for it. Still back to Alps, nice to see that your hatred for Lowe has been "revised" over the years either.

I seem to remember that top goal scorer Kevin Phillips sitting on the bench. The thumbs up to Mandaric after Poopey humilated us said it all for me.

I am not even sure that he is worth his place in the team on ability any more.

It has nothing to do with innocent until proven guilty - same as with the Dave Jones case. He has simply been stood down pending the decison as happens everywhere. Capello is just making matters worse and is proving that he doesn't have thecalibre to be England manager, not that that needs any more proof. John Terry is not the only man who could Captain England an many would argue that Gerrard is a better choice anyway. This is a bigger issue and Capello needs to recognise that and keep his mouth shut. Shouldnt be too hard for £6m a year.

I am not a racist but if I call someone at work an effin bl*ck b*stard I would expect to be suspended immediately and would eventually lose my job. Why should Terry be any different? If the man had any moral fibre he would have stood down as Captain as soon as charged. Now we have Talkpsort suggesting that other idiot Ashley Cole should be the next England captain. Bobby Moore must be turning in his grave.

We had a manager who was given "garden leave" because of claims made against him. He was innocent until proved guilty and was actually found to be innocent in the end. It was felt that the court case would mean that he couldn't focus properly on his job. Is that the same with Terry?

Thought that said An*l at first!

Is Al Jism the Arabic equivalent of Ben Dover?

I think that saying you come with cats is far more worrying thn calling someone a dickhead Alps.

Always look on the bright side of life, de da, de da de da de da de da......

Did they need to buy anyone?

Yay, common sense has prevailed! Fair play to both men for sorting out this issue as it was doing no good for either the club or Punch. It is a shame that it couldn't have been sorted sooner but better late than never and this is a positive for both parties.

Didn't this access to huge amounts of credit start under the Tories in the Yuppified 80's???

We have just brought in a loan and Lee so it is not as if nothing is happening. As for others, if you cant get the players you want why bring people in for the sake it it? I am frustrated as the rest of you but lets get it right eh otherwise we will end up with a bloated squad of average players.

The start wasn't great but he turned that round. He also brought in quality players without whom....Pardew did an excelent job here. Adkins suffers from the same problem many of our managers had, consistency and beating teams "weakened" by injuries. We'd be better off playing West Ham each week.

We don't need this side show. There are more important things to sort out like bringing in new players.

Cortese isn't helping the situation by being stubborn. Sell him. Get some money for him and get him off the payroll. All this I'll show you who's boss isn't helping.

I paid for my former wife's breast implants. When we divorced my solicitor asked me what I wanted from the estate. I asked for access to her breasts every other weekend.He wasn't amused.

Am I the only one who finds this post disturbing? And as for why should we pay for keeping people in custody perhaps we should save ourselves a bundle and kill everyone who is remanded? Perhaps build some gas ovens?

People have been doing terrible things to other people for thousands of years. It makes no difference if there is a death penalty or not. As a society we have moved on. If it is not right to take a life it is not right for society to take a life. However, life imprisonment should mean life.
