I tend to agree with your assessment of AA. However it appears that he prefers to play as a central striker which, in my humble opinion, is not his best position.

Nic, It appears Kaywaan Khan and the relatively recently formed London Health Centre may not have a great deal of experience in virus health matters. They seem to concentrate on weight loss procedures and body shaping techniques. Call me old fashioned but I dont think I would waste my money seeking their advice. The much maligned NHS for me old chum.

Still quite bloated. Allowing for expected inbound and outbound players, it looks something like this: GOALKEEPERS Baz / McCarthy Ramsdale? Incoming? RIGHT BACK Bree/Sugawara Incoming??? LEFT BACK Welington/Manning/Taylor DEFENSIVE MIDFIELD Downes/Charles CENTRAL DEFENCE Edwards/Wood/Stephens (+ Taylor) Harwood Bellis?/Bednerak? Quarshie/Sanda Bella Kotcha? RIGHT MIDFIELD Dibling/Robinson LEFT MIDFIELD Edioze/Fraser ATTACKING MIDFIELD Smallbone/Aribo Fernandes ? Incoming? SUPPORT STRIKER Archer/BBD Armstrong? MAIN STRIKER Stewart/Downs There are 24 players with no immediate feedback on departure although there will be some that still have questions against their names as a consequence of their contractual arrangements or the fact that they are not really that good. My assumption is that 6 players have a reasonable value and the club may be willing to agree a sale/loan arrangement. I have also assumed there is the possibility of three more positions to fill, ie 'Keeper (if Ramsdale goes) and an attacking midfielder to replace Fernandes plus the possibility of a right back to replace the dearly departed KWP. Even allowing for this, the squad would be a hefty 27 players without the inclusion of the likes of Ballard, O'Brien Whitmarsh, Akachukwu and some of the other U21 squad who did relatively well last season.

There were some crap records about in those days eg 'Does your Chewing Gum Lose its flavour on the bedpost overnight' by Lonnie Donegan. .'Hole on the Ground' by Bernard Cribbins. 'Hole in my Bucket' by Harry Belafonte 'Ernie . The fastest Milkman in the West' by Benny Hill etc etc

Ray Parker Jnr had an interesting history within the American music scene as a guitar player and singer. Have a Raydio LP when he was part of that group.

I've been on Seaborne, Regent Seven Seas (a subsidiary of NCL) and Oceania. All excellent, but expensive and as a consequence there are quite a few pompous passengers who like to boast about their money making expertise.. There are a number of other '6 Star' Cruise Lines starting to make inroads into this top end of the marker so there is a great deal of choice in whatever market floats yer boat (see what I did there🤪?

Whitey, You're a class act and can understand that you may not have fitted in on NCL. Perhaps have a think about Seaborne, the class act of the Carnival group

And that ironically caused the fabled Dock Strike that Pompey fans are completely misguided about. Pompey Dockers broke an agreement not to work the Brittany Ferry Service which was based in Plymouth at the time and the Plymouth, Poole and Weymouth Dockers, in small numbers, backed up by around 500 Soton Dockies went down to Pompey Commercial Port, which had only started operating in 1975, to protest. This was in November 1976 and it was headline news in both the Daily Echo and Pompey Mail. Ironically I have never heard any Pompey fan mention this heinous behaviour.

Didnt you sell when the shares reached £40? They went down to £8 after Covid but now on the up at £18 last time I looked after better than expected results

Turks, I never know you are serious or using your intellect to play mind games with the hoi polloi. In case anyone is confused, Carnival Cruise Line own Costa Cruises (an Italian based company) who are a completely different company to Costa Coffee. You're welcome.

I think Cunard and White Star Line were basically forced to amalgamate by the British Government as both companies were in financial difficulties and Cunard were unable to complete the construction of Queen Mary up in Glasgow unless a grant from the Govt was provided. So the amalgamation was part of the deal.

If we do sign Downes that would be a total of five 'strikers' plus Ballard in the frame somewhere too. So points towards Arma and BBD being waved off with our thanks and a bit of cash in the kitty.

Have a read of Nolan's post a couple of hours ago. The difference between P & O Ferries who operate Ferry Services out of Dover and P & O Cruises who operate cruise ships out of Southampton is worth a read.

I just wish we had a striker who was decent in the air which is very helpful in the Championship Tall Paul should have met that criteria but he didnt have anywhere near the aerial power as the likes of Pelle and Ricky Lamber although being a few inches taller than either of them
