Agree, shame that the kid sought a quick move as he's worried about what might happen and how he might break a leg and ruin his career. He could be run over by a bus tomorrow if you think like that... Half decent footballer who is no way, right now, worth that sort of money. Good luck to him I say, but he's facing a good few years of doing feck all....
-
It was a English transfer record at the time. Seems like nothing now but at the time it was huge. Now the sell on fee, that's different matter...
-
Does anyone seriously think Chamberlain would be posting his move on Twitter? He's daft but not that daft...
-
By all means buy him but the pay the full fecking price. None of this £5million now and the rest in installments. We're not fecking Littlewoods, pay up or feck off...
-
His uncle Alan is one of my best mates. I rate him highly, but I think the midfield is pretty sewn up at the moment...
-
She covered Chelsea's Champions League final against Man Utd wearing blue and telling everyone how wonderful Chelsea were... It was appalling considering she supported Saints for several years. The way she gushed over Frank Lampard (oh er) was just embarrassing... Actually so was the way she gushed over Alan Johnson... She's just embarrassing full stop... I still would though as well... But I'd tell everyone how Kate Garroway's better than her afterwards...
-
She represents everything I detest in "celebrity fans." Supported Saints and then dumped them for a more glamorous, successful club... Utterly, utterly abhorrent...

Exactly, for the social retard in your life it's the perfect gift.....

Not rocket science is it... lol

Is there a photo of you and Fonte? Signed?

That that comment was a bit over the top... That's all For me the word cancer refers to something evil, destructive, malignant. I have never been able to see how people can refer to people like Lawrie McMenemy as a cancer because he gets a few free tickets or, unbelievably, The9 because he dares question the wage a chairman gets… For me it's just over the top. Cancerous was another word and I can understand people using it to describe someone's influence but for me, personally, to refer to an indivual as cancerous is, again, over the top… Nothing more, nothing less. Is that so hard to understand? Or am I just not getting the point across well enough? If they'd said evil or malignant I'd still be saying the same thing… It's just over the top… Maybe my experiences with it have clouded my judgement here but I don't think so.... Do I find the word cancer offensive on here? No, not really Do I find the word cancer really applicable to Rupert Lowe, Lawrie McMenemy or The9? No, not really Do I find it offensive that someone intimates that i'm somehow using my mother's death through cancer to score cheap points on a ****ing internet messageboard over a nothing argument on a nothing point? Yes I do...
-
I give up, I'm obviously not getting my point across well enough or people are choosing to mis-interrept it (I'm not referring to you locksheathsaint) I'll say this one last time. I'm not objecting to the use of the word, I'm not some ****ing word nazi. For me it's an emotive word admittedly but people on here get so ****ing hett about what is essentially sh1t. Rupert Lowe, Lawrie McMenemy, Nicola Cortese, Ticket taxes... Seriously I don't care but come on... I just think it's over the top... For the final time I'm not, never have done, never will do, objecting to people using emotive words but in the right context? Is that so difficult to understand? What argument am I winning here ffs? I'm just standing up for a poster who quite rightly dares to question his club. It's his right as a paying fan. I think Cortese wages are a bargain but I'll stand up for The9's right to question it...
-
And what part of... "Nick I'm not going to get into an argument about the context of the word, I'm not objecting to the use of the word" Did you not understand Einstein? A bloke posts on here questioning whether or not Cortese merits £600k and he get gets called a cancer amongst Saints fans and I'm the one making a mountain out of molehill? ****ing grow up....
-
FFS, did you ****ing read that post or just react to it? Is The9 "an evil influence that spreads dangerously" or are people getting a but hysterical over a poster who just questioned how much Cortese gets paid? Or am I just not getting my point across well enough?
-
Nick I'm not going to get into an argument about the context of the word, I'm not objecting to the use of the word... I've never objected to the use of the word just how people use it. It was a ****ing chairman of a football club, a former manager and now a poster who dares to question how much a chairman gets paid? Seriously, going by your definition of cancer is The9 "an evil influence that spreads dangerously"? Was Lowe? Was McMenemy? I'm not going to tell people not to use the word on a messageboard but ffs people... I saw cancer eat my mother from the inside out, and then read people comparing Rupert Lowe, Lawrie McMenemy and now The9 to a cancer. Trust me, when you've seen cancer at work first hand you don't stop using the word, you change when and where you use it and describing a bloke on a messageboard who challenges how much his chairman is paid as a cancer is just... well, kind of disturbing....
-
I'm not going to comment on Windmill Arms 2 comments, the last time I objected to people using the word cancer so freely I got heavily criticised. All I'll say is after losing my mother to cancer I doubt I'd use the word cancerous to describe a Saints fan who asks questions of his club rather than being a Stepford fan who blindly accepts everything... Bit over the top....
-
The point here is when Cortese speaks he makes absolute sense. We had a chairman who spoke too much, now we have one who probably doesn't speak enough. The less he says the more people fill in the blanks.... Shame, I really like him....
-
Some... Foir what it's worth I think Cortese is worth every penny, I really rate him... But The9 has every right to raise issues and not people sigh, accuse him of Cortese bashing and not really take in his points...
-
At the end of the day, The9 has every right to criticise Cortese if he thinks he's wrong. This club got itself into a mess because perhaps we didn't question things enough. If Cortese does something right he should be praised for it. If Cortese does something wrong he should be criticised for it. We should be rightly grateful to Nicola for being instrumental in saving this club but that doesn't give him free reign to be free from criticism. We should all respect The 9's right to criticise constructively and reply to his points constructively without resorting to "Oh it's another (fill in the blanks) bashing exercise..."

Odd... I don't like the long sleeve shirt but like the short sleeve one... Overall, quite like it...

This...

No, I think you're the one missing the point here. The programme was about **** all. It was about a couple of losers talking about how to buy a club and doing nothing, absolutely nothing. No prosecutions, no charges to be made just a lot of talk. The programe was complete and utter sh1t. The only thing they had was the blueprint that Robson mentioned, on how to do it... and Portsmouth was the perfect example of what Robson was talking about. Had the makers of the programme done any research or had any point to the whole propgramme then surely the punchline was Pompey? Hence why I mentioned Pompey and hence my amazement at the fact that they were glossed over and us mentioned as being slightly suspect. If you say the programe's called "How to buy a football club", why were Saints even mentioned?? We were bought by a billionaire who sadly passed away. It's in the hands of the estate/the Leibherr family. It's not rocket science is it??? Why could Channel 4 not see that? I'm not being prissy or sensitive I'm just pointing out that if the programnme was about dogy businessmen trying to buy football clubs, why mention a club that was bought legitimately by one man and gloss over a club that is the epitome of what the programme was about is sloppy...
-
But you're missing the point. Their "business plan" was to buy cheap, get in loanees and bosmans and then scarper... Which is exactly what happened at Pompey and would have underlined their programme perfectly but sloppy journalism meant they missed that completely. How to buy a football club... so what did Saints have to do with it then? We were bought legitimately so why even mention Saints??
-
What is "odd" about our ownership? Did they mention Gaydamak, Chainrai and the Arab who never existed? No? That's why people are peed off...

THREE adverts before it starts??? And then when you try and fast forward to 28m30secs it resets and the adverts start again.... ARGGGHHH!
