Interesting that Sky say that poll "adds to Corbyns woes" when really it doesn't. He doesn't give two shiny sh ites about winning an election, except the one that means he can run the Labour party. He wants to be Prime Minister less than I do.

Player has no intention of signing an extension but happy to stay and run contract down, leaving club not much of an option but to sell to highest bidder but player can make out that honest he would have definitely stayed but the club decided to sell him. I think he might be going to the spiritual home of floodlit dugouts.

Jesus Christ. We've got another five weeks of this.

Seems unlikely scenario - if Forster ends up at, say, Pep's Man City why would they want his personal goalkeeping coach as well? I reckon other football clubs have their own perfectly adequate coaching set up. Following FF around is an unlikely option for DW, he'll have to just get on with coaching the next FF for us.

Sometimes you can be very subtle, TDD.

Remind me, when were we in League 2?

I can't remember exactly when Rasiak was sold but Surman and Mcgoldrick were definitely sold when we were in administration to pay off debt and stop us going pop not as the means for some transfer market wheeler dealering spree. We also signed plenty of players on high wages like Waigo, Hammond, Jaidi plus keeping players like Kelvin. Talk about rewriting history. So, It's all a bit odd we venerate Leibherr and Cortese when it turns out they did nothing for except spend the funds off the back of selling David McGoldrick. I'd like to think they did more than that but maybe not, turms out we were just Carlisle United with a player or two to sell.

The "something must be done" routine only works when Saints are the helpless victim of the evil rich clubs. Well we've been awfully lucky to bankroll/steamroll our way through two divisions and establish ourselves in the Premier League. We've been lucky to have bankrolled a posh set of training facilities - maybe "something should be done" about that - shouldn't we be forced to share them with other clubs who aren't so lucky to own the steamroller what we got? The sad thing is those in charge of the game are happy to let this happen. I hope someone clamps down on Southampton FC and no mistake.

Who did we sell for twice the value that we bought? And yeah, all league one teams are buying a "couple of £1m players" all the time aren't they?

It's sweet that he's repeated variations of this scenario I reckon about ten times on this thread already. At least the Corbynistas don't have a monopoly on boneheaded delusion.

How many times are you going to type out a variation of this wet-dream scenario on this thread. It's not going to happen, however much you will it. Even if the Tories end up with the most lily-livered watered down compromise deal with the EU it still won't result in some UKIP landslide. Firstly General elections are fought on more than one issue, secondly UKIP are a trumped up protest group with their entire reason for being achieved with no front bench or credibility as a government in waiting, , third our electoral system is against them and fourth, all four major parties will not offer a significant alternative to whatever deal is done or if they do it will be at the end you don't like (ie Lib Dem or Labour concerns around workers rights/closer ties). And lastly huge swathes of people won't be that fussed about Europe, just like every other election in British history. Oh and one more - 48% voted in anyway, so you're relying on pretty much all the 52% being as outraged as you on any deal that you don't like to sweep UKIP. You need none of that 52% thinking "yeah, not bad, let's move on". Keep wishing it but your UKIP dream it ain't ever going to happen.

Your memory is terrible. He took over from Sam Allardyce off the back of three top eight finishes in a row - I think they finished the previous season in seventh or eighth. If that's "pretty diabolical" and a situation that you don't think anybody could have "turned round" then you must think Saints are diabolical too.

Sammy Lee was appointed Bolton manager, not caretaker manager.

Not sure what "complain it wasn't an even vote" even means but I'm certainly not doing that. Accepted the result by 4am on that Friday morning and have done since. Still things to discuss. But your list proves my point - broadcast media didn't really reflect that opinion because they balanced it all 50:50. For example there was that survey of medium/large businesses leaders which was massively for remain was illustrated by broadcast media by "here's one businessman for and here's one against", ie that balance was in itself biased towards leave. Anyway, it's an arcane point about broadcast balance I don't expect anyone here to care about so that'll do me.

The failure of the BBC was to make dinlows believe independent experts expressing a view as being "wheeled out" by remain. They weren't but the BBC's drive for balance made it look like they were.

It didn't "escape my notice", it was central to the point I was making. I didn't expect you to understand it.

You have to be a total fu cking moron to believe the BBC was biased towards remain. Oh, it's Les. The BBC in its desperation for balance massively swung their reports to leave who were disproportionately served. Time and time again they'd speak to an independent analyst/expert, who by default became the remain representative then for "balance" speak to a political Leave representative for the opposing view. Equivalent remain political voices got squeezed out of these binary exchanges on the beeb day after day. This clearly wasn't balanced - balanced would have been three voices - independent expert, then a leave political voice then and a remain political voice. It's not a new phenomenon for the EU ref - they do a similar thing with homeopathy and climate change and various other topics where two sides are given "equal" billing when frankly it isn't deserved. Not all opinions are equal. Ben Goldacre writes well about this particular issue. Dins like Les can pretend Leave won despite the BBC but they won because of it. The establishment delivered for Leave.

Actually read some more of his tweets and a quite funny parody account. Like Twitter version of the John Thomson football fan on the Fast Show.

To be honest I thought they only supported teams in all-red kits anyway.

You'll have to ask some of our forums brightest lights why it's a topic they like to return to.

Would you recommend Norwich fans stage their protest with a credit card, or is it better to hand payment over in cash in the club shop?

If I was a Norwich fan I've no doubt I would love that kit, as it represents their most successful ever period. And it's a third choice kit, for Norwich City who barely need an away kit. It's nothing more than a.n. other bit of club merch, they'll wear it hardly ever. So really don't understand what all the face-palming on here is about. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Whatever happens, that won't.

The compensation would be astronomical and I can't imagine the Argie FA are that strong financially that they can out muscle Spurs. Plus he probably doesn't want that job now and can think he'll get another shot at it sometime in the next fifteen years. It only becomes funny if he say he really wants it. Fingers crossed.
