    Bellerin out for the North London derby...makes 9 players on the injury list for Arsenal. Koscielny also doubtful. Do they train on concrete?

    They're just doing their best to make sure they don't win the PL this season. :)

    Well, on that front they are very experienced. Third or forth place is in the bag.

    This is why I can't be a professional ref Tom. I'd have told him to **** off...then let him sit on the bench for the second half <laugh>

    Just shows how important keepers are. Should be 2-1 to the Cherries.

    Poor finishing from the Cherries too, just like at ours last week. They can't go on like this much longer or they'll be dead and buried before the window opens.

    We could lend them one of our U21 strikers, Gallagher maybe?

    It's all well and good bringing two attacking players on Eddie, but you've brought off two attacking players. I think he could, and should, have been braver that than.

    Bmouth going for some sort of record for most corners won without leading to anything (except more corners).

    Shows that the only stat that counts is "goals scored ".
    Newcastle's second shot only came in the 83rd minute.
    Crazy.

    I don't think any reasonable Saints fan here wants them to be relegated, but if they carry on like they are, like Chilco says, they may be dead and buried come January. If they want to dig themselves out of trouble they 're almost certainly going to have to splash the cash. With a fit Callum Wilson they'd have no trouble staying up with the quality of football they play. Without him they're almost certainly gone. I think Charlie Austin ought to look at a 6 month highly paid contract or loan. QPR are going nowhere again, and Austin would get himself noticed, Bournemouth would be gambling a lot of money spent against the most enormous amount of money to lose. Best scenario for all concerned, in my opinion.

    Leicester could end the weekend atop the table. Granted, City would need to lose 13-0 to Villa while Arsenal loses 8-0 to Spurs, but there's a chance!

    I wouldn't be at all surprised if the current bottom three turn out to be the three sides who get relegated (although I do still expect Watford to drop like a stone at some point).

    Leicester are the new Saints...if so, they'll start dropping points soon. :) Admit I never expected them to do well this season...well done to them.
