Expect Southampton to get a letter from the FA over this action from one of their fans in the 2-0 win over Arsenal this afternoon
SkySports has the details of the arrest/storming:
The suspect, from Lymington, Hampshire, was still being questioned on Thursday night by Hampshire Constabulary officers.
A Hampshire Police spokesman said: "Police have arrested a 25-year-old man from Lymington following an incident on the pitch at St Mary's at the end of the Southampton versus Arsenal match.
"The man was arrested on suspicion of going in to an area adjacent to the playing area contrary to the Football (Offences) Act 1991.
"The man remains in police custody. Officers are investigating the circumstances to establish whether any criminal offences have been committed."

OSG Prem: West Brom Sacks Irvine, Is Pardew Going Home...?
((HT: NBCSN/Sky Sports))
The HQ saw that Crystal Palace would be the first to sack a manager in the Premier League season- Neil Warnock on Saturday after a 3-1 loss to Southampton as they fight in relegation.
Now, West Brom (struggling themselves at the bottom of the table) has sacked Alan Irvine who was regarded as a strange choice to take over in the first place after last season's misfortunes. The West Brom side have lost three in a row and are currently 16th in the table, but they're only one point above the drop zone.
The odd part of all this was that former Spurs manager Tim Sherwood was in line to take over for Warnock at Palace, but now he is lined up to take over for Irvine- according to the London Telegraph.
Got all that...???
But it gets better...
Alan Pardew may be jetting from Newcastle to go back to the place where he was a player in the 1980's and '90s- Crystal Palace.
Rebecca and the Robbies discuss
There will be a quiz later on...

OSG Prem: And We Have Our First Sacking
((HT: BPL/NBCSN))
At least Crystal Palace waited until after the holiday to do it...
It took this loss to Southampton to send Neil Warnock on his way- after only four months on the job...
Warnock was manager from 2007 and 2010 and was seen as a hopeful replacement for Tony Pulis- who left the squad two days before the regular season after a dispute with the ownership over player control. Pulis, strangely, and former Spurs manager Tim Sherwood are seen as replacements for the replacement now that Palace are back in the relegation zone.
From the Palace website:
Crystal Palace Football Club can today confirm that Neil Warnock has been relieved of his duties and is no longer first-team manager.
The club would like to put on record its thanks to Neil for all his hard work and energy over the past four months.
Keith Millen will lead the team against Queens Park Rangers tomorrow as caretaker manager.
This was the longest time a Premier League season had gone without a sacking since the 95-96 season.

The Centennial Of The Christmas Soccer Truce
((HT: CNN/Masters))
It's one of the great legends of this day...
100 years ago, the western front was where the battle was the fiercest in World War I- for more reasons than just the weaponry this time of year. In what was referred to as "No Man's Land" in Belgium, it has been told that British and German soldiers laid down their arms on the day the War was promised to end and played a spontaneous match of soccer.
And we're talking hundreds per side...
It has been romanticized and retold- even making it to the Sainsbury's Chocolates ad campaign for this holiday season
The question, though, has always been: Did this happen...???
There has been eyewitness reference to it, but one professor says the whole event has been blown up to match the tale. Mark Connelly, Professor of Modern British History at the Center for War, Propaganda and Society at the UK's University of Kent gives the whole thing a "Yeah, but" mentality.
"I think it highly likely that someone, somewhere did bring out a ball and a bit of a kick about took place, but that is a long, long way from saying it definitely happened and that it was anything like a formal match rather than just men tapping a ball about a bit," Connelly told CNN.
"There is a huge difference between a truce and fraternization and we have tended to put the two together."
Here's how Fox Sports addressed the story in their "Rise As One" series...
Although, the HQ strenuously objects to beer bottles being held in a war memorial
((HT: Budweiser))
An educational program has been brought about by the Football Association (the FA) and the Premier League to continue the education of youth in the theatre. There have been annual tournaments in Belgium at Ypres, ad campaigns on their own, and educational packets to make sure the stories are not lost and the importance of remembering history is always retained.
And that's the larger message, we think...
Never forget a sacrifice and recall the bravery of those who served and continue to serve to this day...

OSG Prem: Leicester City's Pearson Charged By FA For Fan Outburst
((HT: BBC Sport))
LCFC's boss, Nigel Pearson, has never been one to back down from anything short of a charging rhino. And, then, if that happens the rhino would be in for a battle.
Let's face it, LCFC has been in a rough spot in their first year in the Premier League. And a fan allegedly told Pearson that he was a "twat" from the stands in the loss to Liverpool.
Not one to let those kinds of things go, Pearson responded by telling the fan to "f*** off and die."
Pearson wouldn't apologize, either, for it.
((HT: Beanyman Sports/SkySports))
As a result, the FA has charged Pearson:
Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson has been charged by The FA in relation to his side’s game against Liverpool on 2 December 2014.
It is alleged that during the fixture Mr Pearson used abusive and/or insulting words towards a spectator.
He has until 6pm on 16 December 2014 to respond to the charge.
LCFC Supporter's Club chair Cliff Ginnetta told BBC Sport:
"He should put his hands up, admit he was out of order, apologise to the people and move on, that's all everyone wants," said Ginnetta.
"We don't want to make it a big thing or play it out like a pantomime, we just want to get on with winning games.
"I'm sure the majority do (still support him). People are worried and moaning, but that's football fans, you're never really happy. It's the nature of the beast.
"He is popular but this arrogance spills over sometimes."
All this as the Foxes have only taken 2 points out of a possible 27 in their last 9 matches.

OSG Prem: Russell Brand Celebrates West Ham Win In A Very Russell Brand Way
((HT: Beanyman Sports/BPL/BT Sport))
Russell Brand was a busy fan yesterday...
For those of you unaware, the comedian is a big West Ham United fan. And when the Hammers knocked off Manchester City yesterday, it was a reason for great Brand-celebrating...
Like in the post-match interview room with West Ham manager Sam Allardyce
And with his dad, Ron, on live television...
How very Russell Brand...

OSG Prem: Liverpool Escapes QPR With A Win
((HT: NBCSN/Beanyman Sports/BBCSport))
And the HQ means "escapes..."
In a game that was, mainly, Liverpool coasting against an inferior side in Queen's Park Rangers the last few minutes were stuff that was edge-of-the-seat madness really...
Two own goals...??? Really...??? Really...
QPR manager Harry Redknapp exposed a big flaw of his team post-match
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers knows he's lucky...
The end result means that Liverpool move up to 5th with QPR dead last in the table. Burnley and QPR are tied at 4 points but the Clarets have an advantage from goal differential of 3.

OSG Prem: How Do You Allow 8 GOALS IN A GAME???!!!
((HT: NBCSN/BPL))
Honestly, the short answer is: Ask Sunderland manager Gus Poyet...
Who, in all actuality, may not be Sunderland manager after this display of epic failness and futility- losing 8-0 on the road at Southampton. The Saints are now third in the table because of an outburst we haven't seen in a while...
Two own goals added to six offensive displays put Sunderland on the ropes for the full 90 minutes.
This effort by Sunderland keeper Vito Mannone seems to sum the whole day up...
Graziano Pelle continues his torrid pace early on with two more goals on the day. Cork, Tadic (who is turning into a fantasy beast after a 4-assist day), Wanyama, and Mane all scored for the winners.
Remember all those people who thought all the sales to Liverpool and all the off-season change would be a disaster...???
Not yet...
Pelle was understated and sounds pretty shocked...

OSG Prem: Newcastle's Odd Season Gets More Odd With Scoreboard Fail
((HT: Iain Macintosh's Vine))
Newcastle United seem to be the Schleprock of the Premier League this season.
Frankly, the HQ doesn't know how manager Alan Pardew is still employed with all the talk of locker room squabbling and poor results on the pitch.
Today, they were set to unveil a new scoreboard in a corner of St. James Park, but there was an issue...
It was flapping in the breeze and created a safety hazard.
A delay of, at least, an hour resulted before their match with Leicester City
Oooofff...

OSG Prem: Sergio Aguero's Busy Day

Spurs seem to give up goals in bunches when it comes to playing Manchester City.
Saturday morning was no different as Sergio Aguero scored all four goals in a PK-laden 4-1 win at the Etihad.
Evidence below...
Aguero joins Edin Dzeko as Man City players who have scored four against Tottenham. He is also now their leading goal scorer with 61- and counting.
The Citizens close Chelsea's league lead to two pending the Blues match at Crystal Palace.

It's Chippy At The Bridge: Wenger Pushes Mourinho
((HT: Artekker's Vine))
After an Eden Hazard penalty kick that put Chelsea up 1-0 and a near miss by Jack Wilshere to equalize, it's easy to see why tempers are a little short. Apology, no apology...
Failure, not a failure...
All the press conference quotables led to this in a sport where you can't use your hands
When was the last time you saw that...???
The HQ bets: NE-VAH!!!

OSG Prem: No Apology From Mourinho On Wenger Remarks
((HT: youtube))
With Chelsea and Arsenal going at it this weekend in the Premier League, the press conferences are flying around between Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger and Chelsea's chosen one...
Mourinho is still hot that the Spanish national squad called up Diego Costa, so he has that to worry about in a week's time. But he also is not offering up an apology for these comments late last year from February.
The HQ likes it when they dig at each other overseas and it comes out like that.
Mourinho, for the record, is not backing down from his assessment.
"It was a consequence of something," Mourinho said when asked. "It was not a deliberate first option to say something. I didn't get an apology. I don't apologise."
And don't ever expect one...

OSG Prem: Okay, Manchester United Isn't All The Way Back...
((HT: BPL on NBCSN))
After the dismantling of QPR last weekend by Manchester United, the HQ had raised an eyebrow thinking that maybe Louis van Gaal had the team going in the right direction.
The HQ may have sold the return a little soon...
After leads of 2-0 and 3-1, Leicester City came storming back at King Power to score FOUR UNANSWERED to beat the Reds 5-3. A lot of people thought the final score was a misprint, but it's not.
In a weekend that was strange to say the very least (like West Brom's win over Spurs also on Sunday), this seemed to be the exclamation point in the whole table.
Here's goal five off a PK reinforcing Ulloa's importance for the Foxes
Louis van Gaal, as you saw at the end of the last highlight, was befuddled and beside himself...

Football Reporter Has Unique Use For Vanishing Spray
((HT: SkySports))
It's the end of the transfer window in football overseas at 6PM Eastern.
Sky Sports News, the 24-hour sports channel overseas goes balls-to-the-wall covering the european implications of the transcations that involve every level of the sport.
That means that they pogo from one live shot to another getting updates and gossip from each Premier League ground and it is must watch television on a bunch of different levels...
Reporter Gary Cotterill was at Queens Park Rangers HQ waiting for the standard "roll down the window live shot interview" with manager Harry Redknapp. But, he still had to do live shots...
Fans can be fans, so Cotterill employed a genius move to keep fans back so he could get work done...
Cheers to the QPR fans who played along...

((HT: BPL on NBCSN))
It was just one of those days... and that's what makes the premier League what it is...

First, Burnley was hosting Manchester United- Easy one for the Reds, right...???
Nope... a goalless draw...
Maybe van Gaal was right. It might take a year...
((HT: Beanyman Sports))
City didn't do any better on a day where they could have had SERIOUS bragging rights. Mark Hughes returned to his old haunt coaching Stoke against the Citizens and he came away with the 1-0 win. Once again... shocking...
The best squad money can buy is pitting up some serious numbers already. So much for Diego Costa being out for as many as six weeks with that hamstring he hurt in training. The Blues put up 6 against Tim Howard and Everton. Costa put in two on his own...
Elsewhere, a really mad Harry Redknapp lost Loic Remy in a sale before the transfer deadline. But QPR got the 1-0 win today over Sunderland.
Neil Warnock and Crystal Palace went toe-to-toe with Newcastle- both teams left with a point after a 3-3 draw.
Nathan Dyer put two on West Brom and the Swans added another just because in a Swansea City 3-0 win.
Southampton found some offense somewhere and won 3-1 over West Ham...

OSG Prem: van Gaal Now Says It Will Take A Year
((HT: Sky Sports))
It was weird to say the very least...
Manchester United got bounced from the Capital One Cup yesterday. Which, in and of itself, may not have been a surprise at some point but it was the manner in which they got bounced.
The loss was to League One side MK Dons 4-0...
Yup... 4-0...
And while Manchester United were without a lot of its stars in that line-up, it's still the principle of the thing.
So, we have gone from a third of the season to a full year...
That can't be good...

As if the Spurs-West Ham match needed any more excitement, somebody on a different level of courage than the other fans in attendance felt compelled to do this...
