TBF Syphlilis always gets an undeserved bad press.

Probably out in the snow purging himself with birch twigs.

You should know by now - never let facts get in the way of a good moan.

Although they were a P*rtsmouth band, I used to really enjoy Simon Dupree and the Big Sound. Before they hit the big time with "Kites", and morphed into Gentle Giant when "progressive" music took hold, they were damn good live band doing driven soul-type music. I saw them at the old Concorde Club at the Bassett Hotel a couple of times and just recently bought their first album "Without Reservations" on CD.

Could you just tell what their appearance stats are? How long does it take to impress you? As you indicate, Sagonwski "impressed" when on loan. Didn`t last long did it. I don`t really know if Forte and N`Guessan are going to be any good but I am willing to give them a fair chance.

Firstly, any excuses, if any are needed, will surely come when the season is finished or at least when promotion is impossible, not now. Once again a hysterical remark that the promotion campaign has fallen apart!! Have you actually looked at our position in the table??? Whilst the Walsall result was extemely disappointing and a chance missed, it has NOT put paid to our promotion chances. There are still 45(?) points to play for and we still have to play our promotion rivals. Wait till the end of the season and if we fail to get promotion I promise that I will be the first to say "F*ck Me! Alpine was right all the way along!", but until then just sit back and enjoy the eidelweiss poking their heads through the Alpine snow to greet the spring.

We are not playing exceptionally badly. Whilst I accept that some of the performances have been below par, and do not match expectations, given the squad that we have, to say this is completely wrong.

I am utterly convinced that I saw one of these in Braishfield around 18 months ago. I saw it twice. Once in the middle of the lane picking over an animal carcass and once, with a number of other people, landing in a tree in the same area. I kept telling people that I had seen an eagle but they all said that it was unlikely. Maybe I WAS right.

I must say that for the first time in a while I am feeling quite depressed after last nights result. The fact that Cherries (who lost their top scorer, highly rated manager and have a very small squad) and Seagulls seem to be able to keep on getting results, home and away whilst we seem unable to avoid banana skins like Walsall and Tranmere is frustrating to say the least. I still have a lot of faith in Adkins. I don`t think that only 2 wins in the first 8 games of the season have helped him, but will have to be more consistant somehow.

Just like rabbits!

59 points

I didn`t understand anything that either he or the interviewer said. Sad really. I really love "Two and a Half Men". Will missed if it has finished prematurely.

Very exciting but also frustrating at the same time. Almost like Saints!!

"Saw them live at the apollo in 2009, one of the best gigs I have been to." Steely Dan or Steeleye Span??

This :- http://www.amazon.co.uk/Between-Silk-Cyanide-Codemakers-1941-45/dp/0750948353 Completely engrossing and at times very humorous account of Leo Marks wartime experiences with the SOE. Highly recommended.

On Solent this morning, that numpty SC is pushing the line that they could still make the play-offs as they are on a four match unbeaten run.

I really like Haneke`s films. Have you seen "Cache" or as it`s know here "Hidden"? Really very good film.

So nothing that he does will change this??

I knew that you would.

I hope not! We need him for the rest of the season!

Or indeed this :-

Caught a glimpse of them at the end of The One Show last night. They haven`t particularly well have they??

I have always heard it as either Bitterne Triangle or just The Triangle. In fact, in the days when buses had conductors and they used to call out the names of the bus stops, they used to shout "Triangle".
