Southampton were left frustrated once again as a dominant display yielded just a point in a 1–1 draw with Charlton at St Mary's. Despite 72% possession, 28 shots and nine corners, Saints couldn't turn control into three points. Ross Stewart's excellent header gave Saints the lead, but defensive lapses and disruptive substitutions allowed Nathan Jones' side back into it.We analyse the missed chances, the impact of the substitutions, Flynn Downes' fire and whether criticism of Finn Azaz and Tom Fellows is fair. With seven games unbeaten but slipping to 11th in a congested table, how damaging could this result prove?Attention quickly turns to QPR on Tuesday night. Level on points with Saints and arriving in solid away form, it's another big test in a crucial week.

On 10 January 49 BC, Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon River, a decision that would trigger civil war and reshape the Roman world. But what did this moment really mean, and how inevitable was the conflict that followed? In this episode of the Ancient Warfare Podcast, the team explore the political and military background to Caesar's fateful decision. We look at the breakdown of relations between Caesar and Pompey, the pressures within the Roman Republic, and why compromise ultimately failed. Was Caesar forced into action, or did he deliberately choose war? The discussion goes beyond the famous phrase and the dramatic image of a single river crossing. We examine the military realities Caesar faced, the loyalties of his legions, Pompey's strategic position, and how contemporaries understood the step Caesar had taken. Finally, we consider how the crossing of the Rubicon has been remembered, mythologised, and misunderstood ever since.   Join us on Patreon patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast
