St Landrew

I doubt if they need reminding. I would imagine that by our standards, the Saints dressing room nowadays exhibits a level of positivity that we can only dream about.

Here's the whole thing again, just to spin out the tension: 5th Round Draw

For those who missed the draw for the 5th round, here it is. I must say, even though I knew the result, it still provided a bit of a thrill to see it actually happen. Nice to see that host Jim Rosenthal actually realises that professional football is played south of London, and obviously knows the rivalry well. 5th Round Draw

Didn't I read somewhere that Liverpool season ticket holders were being asked, by their club online, to purchase FA Cup tickets between Liverpool and Burnley, BEFORE their 4th round replay against Reading, which they lost..? Of course, nobody plays proper professional football south of Birmingham, except for those London clubs, do they.

Would rather have drawn them later in the competition or not at all. Their club may be in the deepest sh!t imaginable, but they will be stern opposition, have no doubt. I will cheer like a loony, if we win the tie, but I would rather someone else beat them, and we had got an easier draw. Sorry to be a bloke who doesn't jump on the bandwagon.

Interesting stuff, SiP. I wonder if it'll ever get to McLaren in GB..?

Out, but that was hard. Couldn't get my head round the logic, and believe me, it was logical. Otherwise I wouldn't be interested, in the first place. :smt104 Can't stand puzzles where someone fits a hand grenade to a toothbrush and that serves as a golf club, which undoes a front door, just because it has the initials FD on it. Those either annoy the hell out of me or send me to sleep. :smt099

Chuckle. I want the easiest match we can possibly have, and at home. That way we have the best possible chance of progressing, and not tiring out the squad too much. People who want Chelsea, Arsenal, Portsmouth or the like, and AWAY at that, must have a screw loose.

Find another stick and a pair of scissors. The scissors cut the string of the trolley, and then you tie the two sticks together to push the trap door. Cunning stuff eh..?

Obviously realises he has a game on his hands today. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/fa_cup/8468667.stm The interview was with their local radio, hence the Ipswich bias.

Yeah, that was easier. Only took an hour.

So the blurb said. I'll see after I've done it: SWITCH

And out..! Bollix..! There's another secret door, so I can go through it all again, but only if I want to. Of course I bloody well do. I have to. It's the nature of the beast. :mad: EDIT: Ha..! Oh no I don't. I only saved it before I got through the door. I can go back.

You're going to be disappointed. It leads to the bathroom. Doing these has nothing to do with intelligence. You just get used to it. The first one I ever did was actually simple and I couldn't do it. I'm ever so slightly hooked on doing them at the moment. I'm hoping it will pass, as the guitar practice is suffering. I think they are very good mental exercise though.

And out..!

No. End it elsewhere.

Haven't noticed this put up yet, so here is: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/8474548.stm Bernard talks to Radio Solent too.

Same here. Wasn't fussed anyway.

Kin 'ell. This is difficult. Not stumped yet though.

Blimey SS, you're nearly there. I suppose I ought to let you have that last clue, so here goes. The box where you put the stones in to look through and find clues, also reveals backgrounds. Just work out from those bacgrounds which animal would be most suitable, and put the stone into the correct animal eye socket. Then press the centre eye. If nothing happens, then your jigsaw isn't quite right. If it is, you're out. BTW, it's snail, snake, man, bird and seahorse. The seahorse design in in the book.

My days are all turned round at the moment, due to being a bit off-colour. Can't sleep, and am going to listen to a few episodes of The Navy Lark at very low volume, in the hope it'll lull me off to zzZZzzZZ land. Here goes. Goodnight anybody else awake at this time of night, and goodday to Saint in Paradise, and other eastern hemisphere Saints fans.

Just shows you're not reading it correctly, albeit along with several others. He doesn't suggest one [promotion] or the other [a trophy], but if promotion is unobtainable this season, then we'd be OK with winning a cup or two. That's a no-brainer, as it's better than achieving nothing.

We can just recall Simon Gillett. There's no need for threats. We could let him go back when the situation eased. However, I think we should buy a good midfielder and get it over and done with.

Totally agree. Let's not bugger about. We wanted another quality creative CM anyway. Wotton is perfectly capable in the other role.

Can you get this, Alpine..? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/8444293.stm
