Back on topic guys: So extended highlights are up and they do show the entire goal. I tried counting and I thought I counted 27 passes, but I may easily have made a mistake. What did you tally?

This isn't a problem - this is good news. More realistically there will be injuries or suspensions and this "problem" will sort itself out. I call it depth.

There are some fascinating photos on my friend's blog from the US National Championships if you click here. I'm sure you know what you're going to go for already, though. Good luck!

Hahaha. I love it. Of course, I also see that happening BECAUSE Nigel took us there, so I don't see how we'd have outgrown him. It's like my game in Football Manager - SFC have won 4 of 5 Champions League trophies in a row...all because of me! The Club needs me simply put. :) :D

Agreed. The sell-on is no longer. Plus, it's doubtful Barca would want Theo anyway. Where would they play him?

That scares me. What's a scenario where the Saints outgrow him?

Welcome! I too am a bit worried about our away form, but as long as we keep winning at home and getting those 1-pointers on the road then we will be just fine. I'd like to see wins both home and away, though, before I begin to think we're Prem material.

I think we can all agree that the EPL is the best league in the world, and if not best, certainly top 3. That means the harder it is for an English player to get into the league the better this player is. You want the best players on the English squad? Then you should make the EPL a league...

I'm currently reading a book called "Soccernomics" by Simon Kuper and Stefan Szymanski and it's fabulous. The whole 2nd chapter (or thereabouts) is about why England hasn't won, and it's VERY convincing. I recommend the book to everyone. It's from 2009, so slightly outdated, but I heard in an...

In 2010/2011 the final 3 spots had 42 points, with 4th from the bottom at 48 points In 2009/2010 the 3rd from the bottom had 47 points and the 4th from the bottom had 49 points. In 2008/2009 (when we were relegated) the 3rd from the bottom had 46 points and the 4th from the bottom had 51 points...

If both teams like to knock it around and attack, wouldn't this end up being a high-scoring affair? Why all the 1-1 predictions? Also - two managers named Nigel!

Heck, Beckham is available after his contract in November expires and I was thinking about him as a Saint....and decided I'd pass. I like the team as it is.

A simple point from a foreigner: if we're restructuring, can we use different league names? Explaining to a non-fan how the CHAMPIONSHIP isn't the best level, or that League ONE is actually level THREE in the hierarchy is really a bit strange. If you want to keep Premiership then fine. Make the...

Basically, the issue is that people with power like retaining that power. They do everything they can to retain it even if it goes against popular belief, logic, or sensibilities. In this case, the FA is sticking with the ******ed "this is the way it's always been" defense and refuse to accept...
