With only international football the press will be whipped into a feeding frenzy by the FA decision when it eventually comes. It's going to fill the void left by the absence of league football and there is sure to be some radical reporting much of which will be completely ott.

Yeah, among many others I was worried he'd be a disaster but he proved me wrong with his very first touch in a Saints shirt and he's just got better and better. A real bonus signing to say the least.

Blimey, has Tonda killed someone? This is starting to look really serious.

I wasn't being serious 🙂

Almost certainly.

I am loathe to accuse the FA of mischief-making in their decision to deal with Tonda during the international break. However, it has to be said that they have chosen a time when the case will again receive massive media scrutiny because, with little or no league football, there will be nothing for the journos and pundits to get their teeth into. Hence, Spygate will be front and centre in newspapers, MSM, Sky Sports and any other outlets reporting on football. I don't believe in coincidences myself 🙂

Birmingham was a decent result. Watford and Lincoln should have been 6 points but we got our tactics totally wrong.

Away performances have not been up to scratch. I think we are showing teams more respect than we need to which is resulting in the clear disparity performance wise between home and away games. Let's just go out and outscore the opposition with no fear starting this weekend at Wrexham. We're too good for most sides in the Championship and need to play with far more swagger and belief away from St Marys.

How can we appeal before the punishment has been announced?

Yeah, Matsuki showed him how to finish.

We had Jander missing again and Downes struggling after a knock in the first minute yet still won 4-1.

Let's not forget, as Tonda said, Downes was injured from pretty much the first minute or two which hampered him. Plus, it wasn't as one sided as many allude to - we scored one in the first half and could have had a couple more through Matsuki who had a good shot well saved and Larin probably should have got on the end of a pass but missed it. People go on about Ballard but Matsuki showed him how to finish with a cool head. Brizzle should have been down to ten so for me a well deserved 4-1 win especially as we had a tough mid-week game.

Yeah, even a blind squirrel finds one nut.

Where is the evidence of bullying? Isn't Salt still working for the club? Don't see bullying being an issue.

Score was 4-1. A big part of the game is putting the ball in the net and we did that far better than Brizzle. Simples.
