Wow, massive respect!!
More and more things I read are making me smile - the spirit of Southampton really has been awoken.

Administrators being interviewed live on Sky Sports News.
Say 15 interested parties in buying the club, Rupert Lowe is NOT one of them
Wow, really, 15? That's incredible!!
Fingers crossed ...

Haven't we been here before?
I'm sure someone has asked Virgin and their response was along the lines of Virgin would not sponsor a football team because that would be 'regionalist' whereas Virgin is a national/international brand.
Their fear was that by sponsoring a team from a particular area it would prejudice markets in other areas, ie. no one in P****mouth would buy Virgin products. (I'm sure they all use Tesco value mobile phones anyway!)
Exactly the response.

they are also good lounging trousers, not as restrictive as jeans
If you have guests, yes, but my lounging trousers of choice are always jogging bottoms, long shorts, or even boxers (depending on circumstances).
-
Ok to wear or Gay?
Linen trousers are great, I have several pairs with various very lightweight shirts to go with them.
It's almost time to get them hung back up in the wardrobe and the jumpers folded away!

I fail to see how a team on the brink of administration can afford to price this seasons and next seasons shirts at 50% off, buy one get one free AND get a free match ticket included?!
Just seems ridiculous.
I was going to order myself a couple for the gym (and get a free ticket, bonus!!), but they only have XL upwards online. Shame - guess that means normal sizes are sold out?
-
Yay or nay?
Has anyone split up with someone, got back together and is now having a good relationship?
xx
Good God no. There's a reason you split up, I couldn't imagine anything worse than "going back" B*llocks to that, the future is too good to go back and have what you had before.
What a hideous thought! Onwards and upwards, you can only get better ;-)
-
No.
As I've said before, "climate change" is an excuse for humans to be selfish and preserve their future on the Earth. Why should they?
Who cares? In 1000 years, hopefully humans will be wiped out and another, new, species shall rule the Earth.
The Earth doesn't excusively belong to the human species ... so, who cares? I don't. Don't give a toss if humans are wiped out by an overly warm, or overly cold planet that doesn't actually belong to us.
And don't get me started on all thse bloody bandwagon jumping celebrities, bunch of c*nts.

That makes her skinny, which I have been told isn't atractive??? I can wear a size 6 but always get told I look far to skinny - thoughts??
It depends, if you have really skinny arms and have ribs showing, then yeah, you probably are too skinny. But you can be small without looking skinny, which is all good :-)

ooooooh petite girls are a real turn on:smt049;)
Indeed, new lady friend is 5'4 and a size 6/8 ... mmmmm
Me ... 34W 32L.
Two years ago, I was 40W 32L ... :-|

Lets be miserable,
Whats the worst news you personally have had this year so far.
Mine is having to take a pay cut. Only 5% , but still a pain.
We all had to take a 10% rate cut this week, however on the positive side, I've recently got a fantastic lady in my life. So it all balances out!

I eat more Turkey now, as a bloke that I train with told me to, as it has more protein in
Interesting, I thought they were about the same, but I won't argue, but what I do know is that Turkey is cheaper - which isn't a bad thing when you eat as much bloody chicken as I do!!!!
-
I'm a vegetarian so 'an extra chicken breast' unfortunately isn't going to happen. I don't suppose these protein drinks are vegetarian are they? Maybe a ridiculous question.
Hmmm, slight problem - if you're a veggie, you need to get extra protein from somewhere else you really won't build yourself up.
I'm not sure if most protein shakes are suitable or not? Personally I think they taste foul, even the chocolate bars which is why I eat shed loads of extra chicken instead.
Failing that, you've always got eggs and baby food - both work!!
-
I've got a couple of free weights but I've found that I'll do 50 a day for a week and it gets easier and easier and nothing happens. They're pretty heavy too. I'll find out what weight when I get home. Maybe I need to get a full set of them and work my way through the various weights.
Because you're doing it wrong.
With weights, you need a very heavy session. Pick a weight you can do 3 sets of 12 with. With up to a minute between sets.
Do this (for example) with a bicup curl.
Then do the same with something the dumbell kick back for your triceps, pick a few routines you like.
Then, go back and start again - do all the same, 3 sets of 12.
The next day your muscles should hurt. This is good. You have torn the fibres and they will repair, slightly larger (but not yet noticeable) to cope with the demand on the body.
If you eat more protein (so an extra chicken breast) this will encourage faster and bigger muscle growth.
Do NOT work on that muscle group that day. Sometimes a 2 day break is needed.
If you go to a gym, the ideal is upper body 1 day (plus cardio), lower body the next day (plus cardio), with core muscle workout alternate days too.
If you do the same routines every day, you end up with diminishing returns and almost negative muscle growth.
So, alternate days.
Also, don't believe that doing 3 sets of 5 reps on a much heavier weight will work, it won't. 10-12 reps is the most beneficial number of reps for muscle growth.
Oh, and if you're moving your neck and back as you move the weight up and down (for example on a bicep curl), the weight is too heavy and you'll damage your neck and/or back eventually. It should be a smooth movement of the arm, only.
You can thank me when you look as tonned and in shape as me

Steve - without wanting to teach you to suck eggs (but you know me, and expect it anyway, haha) ... simple solutions are:
- Close ALL other forums apart from the main forum during a match
- Make the main forum log in only during a match / all the time
- Remove banners/avatars at peak times / all the time to lessen the server load of bytes dished up upon refresh
etc.
Generally, I find the forum over functional. All I want to do is read comments about the match if I'm not there, I don't want to play games, look at people's f*cking rubbish avatars, look at bloody smilies, send PMs and so on.
-
Should be a sticky
Reading those comments, my laptop is sticky ...
Fair play, great reading, sounds like we are playing with real confidence and skill and sounds like a very different team to the one a month ago ...
excellent!

lay into Slang 1. To scold sharply.
2. To attack physically; beat up.
I don't have to TRY to be clever
Believing the internet dictionary is one of the reasons grammar has gone to pot. If you believe that, then read this: http://i-shrugged.blogspot.com/2008/02/into-or-in-to.html It's just as believable as the one you found, which is incorrect.
You can reword the statement to read similar to; "he laid in, to Gordon Brown". But the comma is not needed, however it helps to show why the use of 'into' is incorrect in this instance when you read the statement properly.
Bye.
-
And I would suggest that it is 'lay into', not as you have put it
I suppose you found his comments about lorry drivers murdering prostitutes highly amusing also ? The man is a jumped up junior reporter from a provincial newspaper based in Rotherham.
Don't try and be clever when you're wrong. Now go and look up the definition and use of "into" and "in to".
"In to" is associated with doing something. So by laying in to Gordon Brown, he's doing something, rather than "into" which would make no sense when used in that context.
Yes; his comment about lorry drivers was hilarious. Are you a lorry driver perhaps? How many have you murdered recently?
-
I blame Jonathon Ross.
Yes quite! I can't stand this latest craze of bashing Ross for everything, it's the Daily Mail/Express lot no doubt who cry out; Why have immigrants come here and dug up Princess Di?
-
You just started it I think as MB/Shane and Scotty have been absent today:
Tonight - drinking, watching soaps, fall into bed
Sat - nothing exciting apart from advising soon to be step son what animal to sponsor
Sunday - go and see my friend and her baby, who at last has been let home from the special care unit
Monday - meet with the person who is doing my wedding make up to decide on colours etc
Tues - nothing
Wed - work for a day then another 6 day long weekend
Happy days
Why do you think people care what you're doing over the weekend? How sad.
-
I think that most complaints will be on the basis that we pay the pr1ck, ( Clarkson that is ).
It's just of those pre-planned slips of the tongue that today's OK / HELLO aware 'celebrities' need to generate to maintain their public profile. ( For instance, wtf does Kerry Katona actually do for a living ? ) Clarkson has a persona with which he tries to position his mid 40's, slightly overweight, hairline receeding opinions with the mid 20's EVO driving kn0bs who worship at the altar of Top Gear.
Well I think Clarkson is superb and very funny man who is perfectly entitled to lay in to Brown.
I'm in my 30s (note that 30s doesn't need an apostrophe like you're wrongly using) and I have no intention of driving an "Evo".

"We beat Reading because the fans supported us so well" says our new coach.
Which explains why we have won so regularly when 18,000 of us turn up in Southampton and sing our frickin' hearts out... oh...
Usual blarney from the OS, but does know one there ever learn???
And I think we can now officially fire him and simply sing louder and see results improve. Which will also improve the finances.
Wotte a kunt.

Yes the point is about "global warming" is that it does NOT matter.
The Earth has been changing for tens of millions of years, different species have "ruled" the Earth and have been and gone. So what if the human race dies out? The Earth doesn't exclusively belong to us does it? We're just here as we've evolved with the climate and food on offer over the last 10,000 years. The Earth and other species were here a long long time before we were, and will be here a long long time after we've been here.
I couldn't give a stuff if the climate changes, because it will anyway in the next 10s of thousands of years, regardless of what we try to do now as humans.
The Earth will continue to live as long as the Sun does and there will always be a species who will "rule" it. Why does it have to be Humans for eternity more? It doesn't.
So, if we wipe out the Human, big deal. Bring on the next evolution of whatever species will cope with the warmer/colder/wetter/whatever the climate is.

At long last an explanation
He appears to be an agent not employed by the club but would no doubt earn fees
Fair play to the Echo and to Wotte for finally stepping up the plate to answer the questions being asked.
But why has it taken so long? Maybe members of this forum are just more nosey than certain people in the club give them credit for!
Maybe a ridiculous question.

No, no, no, no and none. Won't be changing either.
