Xavi to leave Barcelona at the end of the season. That's two massive jobs now available in the summer.
Hope the Swansea team, that ended the game against us recently, turn up for the whole game against Leicester tonight and make them fight for the points.
Oops. Swansea miss a one on one with the keeper, in the second minute and Leicester go down the other end and score.
League One promotion chase is as deranged as the Championship, possibly more so. On a points-per-match basis (to account for Pompey's extra games played): Bolton - 2.11. Peterborough - 2.00. Pompey - 2.00. Derby - 1.93. Barnsley - 1.86. On their current paces, Pompey would miss out on GD, and Derby would finish fourth with 89 points...enough to win the league as of a few years ago.
Just read that if Villa beat Chelsea in the FA Cup replay it will be the first time since the 1901/02 season that there were no London teams playing in the 5th round. Coincidentally 1902 saw Saints reach the final, losing to Sheffield United after a replay. I expect Godders was there.
Surprised Nathan Jones is off to Charlton. I know he ****ed his time up with Saints but it's not as if we were good when he joined and credit where it's due, he was incredible at Luton. I thought a Championship team would be in for him.
