Such a massive, massive club. So huge. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Confucius wept.

So the council are "falling over themselves" to attract investment but if an Arabian investor turned up with £500m to redevelop an area near the docks to create a giant entertainment complex and arena, the council would turn them away because they don't happen to own Saints? Righto. What gets leverage is, you know, actual money and actual intent and then a bit of softer stuff like a corporate PR. Quite frankly lobbing the council £xxx to sponsor a festival or city event, or just taking councillors on a jolly old "fact finding mission" is a far far more effective leverage strategy than the irrelevance of buying the football club. There was a story a while ago about a Chinese property developer promising to spend £1bn in Sheffield and he had their council "falling over themselves" and trumpeting the deal. Total number of football club purchases to achieve this leverage: zero.

For personal reasons delighted to see Derby make Wembley but I think its Villa's year now. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

I reckon you should boycott it. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

So a completely pointless exercise. If all they wanted to a achieve is a failed attempt to buy some land in Southampton then they could have very easily done that without going through the whole rigmarole of buying the football club. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Yes, I do. What's happening to prove him right? If anyone wants to invest billions in property development in Southampton, they need to buy some land and then cosy up to the council. Buying local football club: utterly utterly irrelevant. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

We have some experts on this forum when it comes to running a gold-standard effective replica shirt boycott campaign. I can't remember all the details but I do know that lesson one is to get yourself down the Saints store and purchase a shirt on the day it comes out. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

I, for one, welcome our new Chinese overlords. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Well, I have all his books, have been listening to him on the radio for nearly thirty years and I saw him on his first tour 18 months ago. I think I know what to expect and I reckon I'll enjoy it. Thanks for your concern. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Congratulations to Cardiff for winning ten matches in the league this season. Strangely, not enough to keep them in the division though. #bangonthemoney #statisticalanslysis #ceterisparibus

We are the fu cking Dons when it comes to drawing football matches. Three seasons of it. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Can't see one-nil being anywhere near enough but at least Sunderland won the match which I had no expectation they would. Well the few screwed up in their last home game so the hope goes on. A nice comfortable stroll for Charlton today will also help. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Quite. Those people saying that the joke "shows his true colours" make zero sense. If, as they claim, this is his true colours and he believes that all black people are monkeys and that saying black people look like monkeys is something he has been desperate to tell the world about after 40 years in the public eye then why did he take it down, why did he apologise and why on earth did he miss out on the wonderful opportunity to portray Meghan as a monkey in his joke? Anyway, he's due to be playing Nottingham tonight (no sign of him cancelling) and I'll be there. I have no doubt the reception will be warm, loud and long. Fingers crossed he'll do loads and loads and loads of racist jokes now he's shown his true colours. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Puel said our attack is world class. I remember he said "if anything, they score too many". Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Liverpool v Spurs Arsenal v Chelsea England win nations league. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

The dream is on. Just some kind of blatant handball from Suarez in the 90th minute please. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

4-1 is the dream scoreline on my book. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

I'm so jealous of all the £20m back-up strikers Wolves have signed. Just remind me what their names are, again? Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

At the time I thought it was a bit weird that Man U rushed to appoint Ole: let's be honest he wasn't going anywhere else. Now looks like a suicidal decision that us going to cost them another season of mediocrity next year. It'll be ten years since they won league soon enough. Unless the MUFC board are brave enough to knock him on the head this summer. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

It's the Sky executives I feel sorry for. Can't any of these fu ckwits take things to the final day? Emery managing to get Arsenal back the the Arsenal he inherited. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
