  1. The premier league is a shit show. How can anybody support a team that could be docked points at any time. If a lot of people break the rules then it must mean that the rules are not clear enough.
  2. I think a lot of people comment on Matt Le Tissier without actually listening to what he says. It is an opinion, it might not be mainstream and you can agree with it or disagree with it but don't vilify him for having it and then portray him as being insane for seeing things from a different perspective. Sometimes the audience gets it wrong on who wants to be a millionaire.
  3. Just asking on the off chance that someone might have a spare ticket for Ipswich Away?
  4. Good luck to a good man. Adam Blackmore always said how much Saints meant to him.
  5. He has come through the youth system, showed us loyalty and I have enjoyed watching him progress as a footballer. He is far better than people give him credit for. It is players like him that make me proud to support our club.
  6. A very sad day. Like others have said that 4-1 win over Liverpool was my favourite game.
  7. The French certainly fought hard in Lebanon and Syria in 1941.....
  8. Wasn't the joke the free French were De Gaulle and two others
  9. Ultimately voting in was a non win situation. Had we done so, the EU would have been far been far more thick skinned to the British viewpoint because they would believe, probably incorrectly, that we would not endure another referendum. In turn Euro scepticism among the public, which had been on a steady upward trajectory before June 2016, would have accelerated and it is likely that the demand for another referendum would have become politically irresistible. By voting out in 2016, I think that we have dramatically increased our negotiating power in any future rejoining agreement. I thought at the time that by voting out, the EU would make the concessions that they stupidly had not given David Cameron prior to the vote and we would have voted to leave on another plebiscite. Under the inevitable landslide Labour election win later this year, I would think it is realistic that we will begin discussions to re enter the EU under much improved terms. By then it will be politically advantageous to back rejoining and we will go back in. I would suspect that Euro scepticism on the continent will mean that any future EU will be very different to the one we voted out of and the direction of travel for the institution will be more in keeping with the original trade aspirations of the Treaty of Rome.
  10. Thats a very good question.
  11. The old boy I sat next to at the Dell went to his first game in 1921 and I asked him who the best player he had watched and he said Matt Le Tiss. Cantona and Gazza were not on the same level - he scored more goals, registered more assists and played in what was a very moderate team. He may look at life from a different angle to most of us but anybody who comes into contact with him finds a thoroughly decent guy.
  12. There is a Hamlet cigar advert in there somewhere
  13. Champagne was traditionally drunk in pint bottles wine wasn't. I agree with you though that champagne is overrated!
  14. The EU outlawed champagne in 50cl bottles in 1992 after Veuve Cliquot had spent five years preparing them for sale.
  15. As I understood it they fell foul of the new weights and measures rules after we joined the common market. I was barely alive at the time but I would imagine there would have been quite a debate at the time, particularly among higher end on-trade outlets who would have found it a lot easier to sell a pint bottle than a 75cl bottle. I think Ian Fleming always ordered a pint of champagne from his club when he had finished a book - a 75cl bottle would have been a bit much.
