So, you will all be supporting Saints on Saturday against Man City then? City dropping points would really help your chances of getting the million quid.

doubt if you can start to be a tube driver until you are fully trained - ie it's not actually a starting salary - whereas the other three jobs are started after some preliminary training after which there is reference to other fully trained colleagues available while on-job-training takes place.

Thanks all for the congrats. It was interesting to see which teams exceeded our collective predictions. Walsall was tipped to be relegated by most of us (including me) and finished 9th, Leyton Orient was forecast to struggle, between us the highest we tipped them was 16th and they finished up just o...

Hi Yeovil, Yes they were winable games but they still had to be won, they also got a draw in the Bernabau which is quite creditable. It will be interesting how your next 5 or 6 games go. Both Manc clubs and "winable" games against teams in and around you. This may go a long way to you sta...

League Tables in the middle of seasons can be misleading. It was pointed out that Southampton had improved from an awful start but the opening matches were very difficult and the later matches rather easier so you would expect an improvement. Likewise Espanyol's seven matches since sacking Pochettin...

Tickets bought . What was the posters name who lives down there ? I was hoping to find out about away friendly pubs etc Avoid the town centre pubs (especially the Wetherspoons - William Dampier) like the plague. The three closest to Huish Park (The Arrow, The Bell and Airfield Tavern) are all alrig...

Hope it stays dry for you. Away Terrace at Huish Park is a wonderful place to watch football from, one of the joys about being in League One.

...Really???

This was amongst the funnier rumours in the BBC gossip column http://www.dailystar.co.uk/football/view/270255/Saint-Harry-Redknapp/ If Harry didn't like working with Rupert Lowe then I can't see him wanting to work with Cortese. Seriously if he turned up in charge at St.Mary's again then I'm declar...

Anyone know what the ££££s is for being on Sky for this comp? Very little, it was £10k for both teams when SFC were shown, prize money is £5k for winning in the first round. Still the JPT is the perfect trophy for Div 3/4 teams, insignificant enough to not mind losing in the early rounds, but when ...

Considering that yesterday you wanted your ex-players to give up £5 million or the club would fold, how are you paying for some pretty decent players?

I reckon: 1. MK Dons 2. Sheffield United 3. Swindon (Playoff Winner) 4. Notts Co 5. Doncaster 6. Brentford 7. Preston 8. Crawley 9. Coventry 10. Bournemouth 11. Scunthorpe 12. Carlisle 13. Stevenage 14. Tranmere 15. Portsmouth (if no points deduction, if -10 then 21st) 16. Yeovil 17. Shrewsbury 18. ...

The Guardian lot don't see your lot participating that much in the league either: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/aug/14/southampton-premier-league-preview N.B. last season the Guardian journalists were less accurate than using the previous season's final league table. A very fair prev...

Yes, because losing to a Champions League team is so embarrassing. If you're taking pre-season friendlies so seriously what about your team losing to a Conference South team?
