Today we won a Premier League game away from home. And this is how strong a team could have been put out, of players who didn't start:
Button/Steele
Montoya-Balogun-Burn-Bong
Ali J-Stephens-Kayal-Knockaert
Murray-Locadia
Ok I had to cheat a bit with Burn. But blimey that's a pretty good...
Sussex in action at the County Ground for the next few days against Surrey. Guess this counts as a pre-pre-season friendly?
Snippets of info available on Twitter - Sussex 52/2. Nash out for 37, Finch out for 6.
Anyone else see him, when it was all kicking off at the end of the first half, run down the touchline towards the Pompey bench with a clenched fist telling them to 'shut the f*** up'?
I was sitting in the stand and I was petrified.
What a performance, the guys an absolute star.
What a reaction from him at the end. Came over to the fans, pointing to the badge, saying the result was for us, drawing a heart with his hands.
We need to keep this kid for a long time.

This is the most excited Ive been about a home league game for a long while.
Yeah Oldham are a good team, but we're a hell of a lot better and its just really fun supporting the Albion right now.
With Hudds having a tricky fixture away at Swindon, we could be top by the end of play...
Kazenga will get all the plaudits tonight, and rightly so, what a strike!
BUT Tommy Elphick was outstanding today, surely one of his best games for us.
Threw himself at the ball whenever it was near him, won pretty much everything in the air, and one outstanding tackle when Easter (I think)...
Awful. All of them. Struggling to think of one who has come close to performing well.
Lampard, Terry, Rooney, Torres, Van Persie, Evra, Anelka, Drogba. Hell, Fabregas cant even get on the pitch. Only ones who can hold their head up are lesser names like Dempsey.
Makes you think how good our...
....was definitely back yesterday.
First time for years Ive seen the place so genuinely lively, excluding Stockport last year which was different, and a much better atmosphere than there has been for a while.
6 goals in, 0 conceded in last two home games, havent seen that for a while either...

Good interview saying how he has to earn the right to be the gaffer when we move in. Love a bit of FDM as well. Stadium looks immense.
I dont get to see any reserve or youth games. Is he in any way ready for a spot on the bench?
I know its far from ideal having a recently non-league striker up front with an untried youngster on the bench but from what I hear he's a great prospect.
Thoughts?
Just embarrassingly appalling. Just had nothing to their side, if I was an Orient fan I would be despairing at the state of their team and their performance. Only one player who looked vaguely interesting as a footballer and hes not even theirs.
The worst part is, they still looked better than...
Dear NSC,
If anyone out there has had to suffer from this illness, or had to help someone with it, Im looking for some advice.
My ex-girlfriend became ill over the summer and has been diagnosed with manic depression and a serious eating disorder, regularly going 4/5 days at a time without...
I love you too James:love:
