    I know he is playing at a much lower level now but he must be given his Saints opportunity next season.

    Brighton knock Derby out. Nice distraction for the Hove, be interesting to see what they do in the Q/F's if their league form continues.

    Yep. Remember Middlesborogh in 97, two cup finals & relegation. Loved the fight against them, they had some amazing attacking players and Craig Higgnet in defence! <laugh>
    The funniest relegation in my opinion.

    Yes, they were the very definition of a "cup team" back then, good to watch though.

    Was that the year they were deducted points for not fulfilling a match at Blackburn?

    75 points should be enough for the play-offs. Often happens with teams that start the season off like a train then slow down in the second half. Would be good to secure a play-off place and then may the best team win!!! That would be progress for PFC. This year I love Pomepy to bits as there is a charácter about them, in particular Lowe and Curtis.

    Don't mind too much as long as we aren't relegated....have to keep a proper distance between us and Pompey. :)
