My next door neighbour took me to a reserve game at the Dell around that time (at least I think it was a reserve game? There was a bit of a crowd there?!), I must have been about 8, we expected Boa Morte to make an appearance. There was someone warming up on the wing, I thought it was Boa Morte, then a few people were chanting "Bruno! Bruno! Bruno!" at him... To this day I always wondered who "Bruno" was... Now I know, thanks!

Have a printed signed squad sheet/photo thing from 1999/2000... Who are S Bradley, C Collins, B Leal?!

Cheers. That's if they survive next season in League Two of course... Plenty of teams have been relegated from League One only to struggle the following season. If there's no improvement from their team, they're destined for non-league.

Serious question: If the PST have been struggling to find the funds to takeover the club, how are they supposed to keep the club going, thinking about bringing players in, wages, stadium maintenance, policing costs etc etc etc?

I hope you don't mind, but I nicked your stat and put it on Twitter earlier... Got over 350 retweets - we're clearly not the only ones laughing at Redknapp's failure :-)

Tonight, in the second tier of German football, Hertha Berlin and Union Berlin drew 2-2. The attendance was 74,200. That is impressive. I know there are a lot of factors to consider, but imagine a Championship game over here having an attendance of 74,200! Some Premier League teams can't even sell out home games... I am really impressed by German football, the way the clubs are run, the cheaper ticket prices, the safe standing, the atmospheres. Very impressive indeed.

Has Federico Arias been mentioned? Remember reading about him in the Echo at the time, they were proper bigging him up. A quick search found this... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/2635311.stm We signed him and he didn't play once!

Watched the highlights a few times this evening. Lambert looked like he had been playing Premier League all his life on Saturday. The way he took the ball down on the right wing, held it up, played the one-two before cutting it in and having a decent shot on his weak foot was world class. Sublime. His hard work made that goal, good on Davis being where he was to take advantage of Hart's cock up though! Lambert held the ball up so well, he set up Puncheon when he blazed it over, and moments later held it up well again, and thanks to Gareth Barry (one of the worst performances I've ever seen) for slotting home his ball for the third. I know everyone played out of their skin and gave 100% for 90 minutes, the midfield, especially Puncheon were fantastic, Rodriguez never stopped running, but it is Lambert who stands out for me. There was a thread on here as we faced our second season in League One, questioning his fitness and whether was going to be up to it for another season, some people were saying we should sell him... Then we got to the Championship, people questioned whether he could cut it. He did. Then we got to the Premier League, people questioned, me included, if he was going to be able to cut it. He has. Anyway, enough of Lambert love-in. The defence was superb it has to be said. Lessons have been learnt. I say it after every game but Boruc is class. Everyone played magnificently. (Even Danny Fox played alright...!)

Amazing. That is all.

This was my reaction. I've never heard the Flaming Lips though so can't really comment.

I'd be happy with that. The only thing that worries me is Fox...

Alresford. It's alright, it's a town near Winch, it is a bit boring though.

The PA bloke I mentioned tweeted: "The big PL finance vote was incredibly tight - 13 for, 6 against, one abstention (Reading). Just scraped 2/3 majority of votes cast..." "Premier League clubs who voted against the new finance rules: Fulham, West Brom, Villa, Man City, Swansea, Southampton say sources." "As revealed yesterday, Chelsea voted in favour...." "13 out of 19 votes cast... 68%..."

Chief reporter at the Press Association says that Chelsea voted in favour of it, and the clubs who voted against it were West Brom, Fulham, Villa, Man City, Swansea, and Southampton...

The Pompey Supporters Trust are becoming more and more desperate in their search for financial donations...

He's been class recently, we'd be mad to not sign him up.

Telegraph chief sports reporter: Harris bid said to be 100% debt-funded with money from a Malaysian finance house, and club will not own ground.

Vukasin Poleksic, the Montenegrin goalkeeper, 30, banned for two years for failing to report a phone call from a criminal gang asking him to help fix Debrecen's Champions League matches against Liverpool and Fiorentina in 2009, has revealed he could have joined Portsmouth in 2007. A player who would later be banned for being corrupt, could only be previously linked to one club...

Boruc played 45 minutes tonight too.

Keith Harris?

I was referring more to the point about ruining our songs by speeding them up to 100mph and clapping ridiculously fast and out of time. Even if we do make our hatred for Redknapp clear, you know it won't be 90 minutes of it. You'll still have all the normal songs that support the team (even if they are done at 100mph!).

Sadly, you're not wrong.
