Remember that well, we were 3-1 down, dowie bagged a last minute equaliser and we went so balistic in the away end that my dad lost his car keys, we had to walk back to the ground to get them. Had to tuck the scarves away as the locals were baying for blood.

Man, waiting a week between games is killing me, I am bricking it at the mo, hope we prevail this season....

lol@carduff, hopefully they are too depressed to finish the season...

When you are 5-1 up and that goal relegates pompey...

Just in, 2-0 up, other scores look good. What's this about Lambo and Lallana, was Lallana stretchered off?? What are the likely injuries???

Probably be logged on here reading a thread about how come we haven't signed any improved players yet and that we have ****ed away the close season already...

They must have piccies of the FL brass in a comprimising position. They get a penalty nearly every week, some shocking decisons go their way, and now this. Pity they couldn't rescind Ricky's red. ****ing cheats!

bah ****ing smiles should be 38 for WHAM and BRUM

It's going to be a real nail-biter After the brun game on 25 March I have: SAINTS 72 +31 (played 39) WHAM 72 +22 (played 38) READING 72 +19 (played 39) BRUM 71 +34 (played 38)

Obsessed with Pompey? Never! In other news, got a stray dog, gonna call him Pompey, so when he climbs up onto the bed or sofa I can yell, "GET DOWN POMPEY!!!"...

"quand j'étais un petit garçon, j'ai demandé à ma mère, ce que je serai"

LOL...PFK! Here in Quebec that means Poulet Frit Kentucky (i.e. Kentuky Fried Chicken)...hope they roll the extra-limbed b@stards in breadcrumbs and fry them...

Well he does have 2 extra thumbs, so no wonder he is able to text the news out so fast...

Maybe we need some nuns, lucky smoke breaks and weather reports to get a fair result in this whole saga...

Nah, I'd want them to be already down, Cov safe, and we play out 90 minutes with a 7-6 win in a carnival atmosphere of p*mpey **** taking and chanting...

....as those 2 cracking wins against Bristol City will attest...oh

There are no easy games... HTH

3C and overcast here (windchill makes it feel like -3C). Pretty mild for this time of year. COYS!!!

Too right, a friend of a friend caught a couple of punks trying to steal a pumpkin from an outdoor display and confronted them. He was punched and thrown from his bicycle and later died in the hospital as a result of hos injuries. No way, I'd take that chance these days.

That's great now 3 of our closest rivals have an extra game to squeeze into their schedule, we need to go on and win this one now. C'mon Saints, really pleased for the Llama and Sharp, more please!!!!

I had chronic shin splints and thought i'd have to give up running altogether. Then I discovered a book called ChiRunning that calls for an adjustment from heel striking to a mid foot landing with a forward lean from the ankles, concentrating on running from the core muscles. Worked wonders for me, I now run 1800-2000 kms per year and haven't suffered from shin pains in years. I worked on my posture and running form to an extent that I run "quietly" now, as if I am creeping up on someone, it takes a lot of the shock out of the shins/calves/ankles and has benefitted me no end. You have to be patient though and build up distance really slowly.

Typical Saints, lose a late goal to win the tie away from home and then botch a very winnable tie at home against a sh1t team. Couple that with Brum getting a late winner tonight and I am really frustrated. I have been able to shrug off most of our bad form lately and not let it bother me, but I am seething right now, really worried for the rest of the season. Winning breeds confidence and we are back to square 1 again, so frustrated, we could have had a winnable home game vs Bolton for a place in the semis but now we had better start winning and fast or this season could end up being memorable for all the wrong reasons. I'm off for a lie down.

A few myths being thrown out here. 50% MHR = best for fat burning; not quite true. It's the intensity that burns the highest % of fat (compared to other energy sources). If exercising at higher intensities (i.e. heart rates) you burn a lower percentage of your fuel as fat but use more energy and thus more total fat (even though it is a lower % of your total expenditure). More than 3-4 hours of exercise will leave you burned out and at greater risk to viral and bacterial infection; again, that's only a half truth. Yes continued strenuous exercise will depress the immune system and burn you out, but again this is down to the individual. Moderate exercise will actually stimulate the immune system, so if colin isn't going all out in every workout he is probably protecting himself against infection. You have to put the things you hear into context, i.e. the individual who is performing the exercises.

Run 5 times a week. I am in training for at least 5 half marathons (and some 5 and 10km races) this year. I love it, ran my first marathon last year in 3:55, don't have the time to do those really long runs this year, but will put in about 2000kms in all. Took a lot of patience and building up slowly to get to this point where I can run virtually every day (hard speed workouts and long runs) without it taking a toll on my legs. In the best shape of my life at the moment, hope to go sub 1:40 in the half marathon this year (PB is 1:44).
