Redslo

I am pretty sure that is a real email address along with Brendanisarubbishmanager2@hotmail.com and Brendanisarubbishmanager3@hotmail.com.

Could this be the explanation as compared to last year? They needed to find a couple of extra Cat A games and picked the last game of the season which they would not do if games against the biggest clubs plus holiday games filled up the needed 7?

Who is Glasgow and why does it matter? Real question, btw.

Maybe I should change my mind and pick a 3-3 draw. That would show you.

I would assume that incorporates the small chance Chelsea blows the league championship and Mourinho is fired as a result. (Keeping in mind that the 10-1 is understanded to ensure a profit for the odds makers.)

Heads will roll--and end up all over Europe.

Hopefully, that is the plan.

I'm hoping we do all our transactions this summer in alphabetical order so it is easier to keep track of them.

Maybe. But the question is whether the injuries are just bad luck or reflect his new normal state of fitness.

I think he is in charge of making sure the other side doesn't turn our corner into their breakaway.

I think the theory is that, at those odds, some people will foolishly bet their money on us.

I also don't know who or what Dune is. (Other than the science fiction Dune, of course.)

My claim is that picking anything but a one goal victory is suboptimal not that you should always pick 1-0. Of course, this week my system picked 1-1 because Stoke is at home and fairly close to us in the standings.

It is. I posted about this on my blog back in January. http://redsloscf.blogspot.com/2015/01/southamptons-european-roster-issues.html The simplified update is that, if we assume Schneiderlin and Clyne are going, we have one club trained player: Lloyd Isgrove. We have seven association trained players: Barnes, Bertrand, Davis S., Davis K., Cropper, Forster, and Rodriguez. However, we probably don't care about Cropper and Barnes. Forster cannot be relied upon for the group phase of European competition so we really have four--if Rodriguez is going to still be with us and available to play. This means that we are not desperate to sign English players unless they will count as club trained. That would mean digging around to re-sign players who came through the Academy and left when they were 17 or older (more or less). Absent that, our European adult roster would be limited to 22 players including Isgrove.

They signed him for 7 million pounds from Genk in 2012. At that time Villa must have looked like a better quality club than the newly promoted outsiders. They also signed Vlaar. We signed Rodriguez, Clyne, Ramirez, and Mayuka instead. Maybe we could have signed him if we wanted too, but we couldn't sign everyone. It is worth noting that, after finishing behind us in 2013 and 2014 Villa could no longer sign better targets than we could.

Hence my use of the word "net"--after all Watford would have to win its games by a minimum of one goal each too. I have a theory that fans like winning teams, especially ones that are competing for promotion.

Only Watford gaining a net of 11 in goal difference would stop this.

Then wear the MLG hat and enjoy life.

Besides you can play video games in church.

I have no idea who Glasgow is, but I can also categorically confirm I am not Glasgow. I am also not Ralph Kreuger.

I bet someone would.

I just posted "I Make Predictions (Round 33 minus)."

We should have sticky thread of ITK claims so we can keep track of peoples' track records. Just the claims not any of the nasty comments. Moderators get right on this. Unless telling moderators what to do is a bannable offense in which case never mind. Also, why doesn't spell check recognize bannable. Get to work on that too. Unless, you know....

You know, not long from now the Echo will notice what they have done and we will just look stupid. I suppose we should be getting used to that.

This. Plus even a 3.3% chance of the champions league (what the computers say we have now) is nothing something you give up just to give a young goal keeper experience. This link is provided only to support the 3.3% chance figure (see 2:08 ). I am not otherwise encouraging people to watch it other than for the humor value, if that. http://www.espnfc.us/video/espn-fc-tv/86/video/2396072
