Baj my computer crashed at 7.45 last night and couldnt get on and so the problem is earlier than near the end of the game.

Il Falconaire (Italian)restaurant Brompton Road South Kensington has always been reasonably priced and good food.

its odd how things change.Last season and early this the Leicester fans were baying for Fryatts to be got rid of and also they were not that happy with NP. Times changed and now Fryatt who couldnt score for toffee last season has scored 25 goals.

All due respect Lordswood but if the big offers had come in they would have been sold.The hysteria about some of the players being wanted was always over egged IMO. If we had sold a couple we may have onl6y got 500-700k in and we wouldnt have got much for that.It was unfortunate that the Dutch forward didnt materialise (although I was sceptical about that one anyway)

I would not want Mandaric here period.if the choice was a chairman who would invest like him then yes without a doubt.I expect everyone would wish for that but if you have no pride and are happy to feed from his bowl and prostitute yourselves then go ahead.

In a time when people in finance have lost their nerve the last thing we need is them to start taking our credit away.You are dealing with peoples livlihoods here FFS. If administration comes all the poor 'little people' at the club dont get paid and are the ones who really get hurt.Go for RL etc by all means but think about the people who will be really hurt if a protest like this makes people wiht no connection to our club decide to lose their nerve and pull the plug. March and do whatever else that is legasl but dont risk messing with those who are just day to day employees.

I have never noticed the Leon and Lawrie box before. Why do they need to have their names on it like that, sounds like an old music hall act.

perhaps its a conspiracy to have the old southern league reformed.

Are you Stewart(stuart) who phoned 606 the other day and Radio Hants?

I couldnt go last night but have read the posts on the game and the little faith i had in the change has gone today.I was told of the players finding a new found confidence and my collegue was sincere, I haven't tried to contact again and will speak later in the week.

I was snowed in last night and couldnt get to teh game.I watched a bit of Holloway on Sky and he was saying that saints had 2-4 chances early on but could see that SU had a belief that their position in the league gave them.He said he could see Saints losing their way.that was 30 minutes in.I could then see what was going to happen and didnt turn it back on until just before 10 and caught the goals, not knowing the score, when it said and in the 90th minute and Surman scored I was disappointed but thought a point better than nothing and then it carried on with SU in possession and the worst dawned on me. My friends info that the team were buoyant and things were inded better under Wotte had given me confidence that we were on the way up. That faith is now seen by me to be misguided after reading the many reports on the game.I did think w3e would lose last night as it always seems if you do anything to get a game played it backfires. Very down today.

We couldnt get there as we had to turn around as we had a sudden large fall of snow and couldnt get out of our road

Lol, GB was appointed by RL and kept on by the Wilde bunch and LC. NP may be a god to you but he is not to me.He did an adequate job and took us very close to relegation. From a person who views us from afar and saw that when he came in we were closer to the play offs and when he managed his last game for us we stayed up on the last day , they would perhaps think that he was not thebees knees. Yes he is doing very well at Leicester but that is no guarentee he'd do any good anywhere else. The fans on the march saturday did it with dignity and are universally respected for that, but dont get all precious if the rest of the world are not that interested.

its snowing quite heavily up in Salisbury and so if it keeps up that will stop a few travelling down.

Thanks

For the first trime in years the New York hotels are prepared to do deals due to the credit crunch. Id say go to Boston. not too far to travel from NY. Washington is suppose to be great as well.

funny how Ho has disappeared.I always said he disappears when the going gets tough and he can't take stick. He's probably been on holiday again Lol. sadly this post will bring him back as he cant not bite back. Pompey transfer gossip threads by him seem short supply as well.

i have no idea who brought the players in.i look ar it as a club not chairman.Powell came in under Lowe as for the others ? GB signed a lot of them and he was bridged between RL and the Wilde bunch and LC. Luketti Wright left of course, there are bound to be others we have forgotten.

How many have left? Quite a few went in the summer and early season so I expect there is a balance.The wage bill would have definately been slashd, although the return of Saga and Rudi staying may change that a little.the ones in will have contracts that are not full of add on I suspect, not that i have any info on that.

Im not sure.Im perhaps saying that the organisation is more structured and the players may just understand a little more what is required of each one of them.

We dont know what Sisu were likely to offer the club and longterm they may not be any good.At present they have given some financial stability but our fans would not have accepted them not spending like they have at Coventry

They still havent performed that well, Jay Tabb and Mifsud have gone who were 2 of their better players.Id wait before getting too carried away about them . Why have they got rid of them?If they were so cash rich.

they are a hedge fund, I think thye may like a lot of them licing their wounds at present

He was seen play as far as im aware.I think a few would have seen hm in the rpre season friendly when we played Stoke.

I respect that and at least you have watched him before making a judgement.Disappointing summary though.
