Let's remember you started ranting about that stuff on the back of someone harmlessly saying "our thoughts and prayers are with" someone else. A totally disproportionate reaction by someone with very little grasp of basic humanity. You're a forum legend and no mistake.

Getting the ball first does not negate every other element of the tackle. It was poor and reckless and a red card was fair enough.

The party at the head office of the media will last long, long, long into the night.

Balls.

Behave. He has a fine track record of being bang on the money about stuff.

We are definitely definitely definitely not going to score.

We're winning on points.

If you are supposed to represent enlightened atheist humanity, sign me up at the nearest fu cking mosque.

I was told earlier that he was definitely going to sign and the club had reached an agreement. Great news.

Your reply didn't register with me at all.

You seem to be still going though.

Why are you lumping Mark Ronson in with reality show contestants? You've admitted you don't have a clue who he is so why not stop there?

I think they should run more events where significant figures from our history get to speak about their experiences. Nigel Adkins would be a perfect candidate for the first one.

You might want to support Reading instead. There's a trading estate with a Frankie and Benny's there and everything.

Nah. Vanity project, role in community stuff, box ticking, PR - yep, fine. Commercial opportunity - nah. If it broke even you're winning, that'll be about it.

This. I am almost rabid in my ambivalence. Either way, I don't care.

We're not really going to sign "great strikers" ever, January or July. They might become great while they are with us (Like Lambert - although in fairness he was a great striker at the level we were at, he says arguing with his own point, but we were the big dogs then, we're not now). But J-Rod, Mane, Pelle, Mayuka, Osvaldo, Tanadari Lee - all gambles to an extent. As will the next one be. The strikers we sign will only prove themselves to be great once we have them. It's not looking likely Ronald is going for a striker this month but he's full of surprises. If anyone can surprise us, Ronald can.

Sums it up nicely for me. Good luck to him.

Wah wah wah stop bullying me.

I am guessing if the journalist had written "just like Manchester City and Chelsea, Southampton are just another club trying to infiltrate the Champions League through the financial power of a billionaire owner" Les would have been absolutely fine with it.

Zing!

They don't realise that if they did, they might more going their way. There is a reason why pensions etc get protected.

Couldn't get past two and a half minutes without feeling nauseous. Off. I'll assume it all ends happily ever after, right?

I didn't ask for an explanation.

When have we, or any club that would qualify as "the likes of Southampton", qualified for the Champions League in the last 20 years? The Mail were supporting us in that sentence anyway by setting up, correctly, the context we work in.
