  1. You will be safe with theirs - unless your non egg content stretches to the eggs in the Mayonnaise (I did just look it up, I thought pre covid it was an extravagance at £7.95 - Considered purchase now at £12.50!!). .........Oh maybe not a male Chicken laying eggs but Mallard Ducks, who also lay eggs, are known to change orientation mid stream making it possible
  2. Growing up in north Ampshoire we heard him on Radio 210, out of Reading. He was an alchemists apprentice experimenting with all sorts, having a station owner who was a bit of character, gave Steve all the rope he wanted to develop his style. The (Mike) Read and Wright show was the topic of many local conversations.
  3. Bringing it back on to the equally divisive sub topic - They do a rather splendid Club Sandwich at the Warwickshire Golf Course, not cheap but an excellent construction to be savoured after playing 18 holes. ..............Right: Carry on
  4. You have to wonder if they have half an eye on not getting crocked for that game
  5. Bristol City have stuck to the task they were sent out with.
  6. They would likely get delayed at the wonderful Gloucester Services, distracted by the delightful retail displays of local quality produce and other goodies, with all thoughts of a pre arranged rumble tempered by some of the eye watering prices. Just need one of them to get a sniff of the excellent Steak and Ale pie and the whole impending fracas will just fizzle out.
  7. Been rather busy with work these past few weeks to pay much attention - just seen that this is on Sky tomorrow night. Pancakes and Football - makes a change.
  8. That 3rd looked a very generous decision
  9. YES! deserved that on second half showing so far.
  10. Mara finding his shooting boots!
  11. It’s been so easy - I think we just lost concentration
  12. Found it in the Independent- from way back. It’s the kind of stunt Cortese would likely have put in place to teach anyone else with the same idea a lesson. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/arsenal-revealed-to-be-paying-southampton-ps10-000-every-time-alex-oxladechamberlain-plays-20-minutes-or-more-8775909.html
  13. I always thought that programme pose was all about the deal he was about to do with Arsenal for Oxlaide- Chamberpot later that week , Apparently the young lads parents had been sneaking about touting Alex to Arsenal (a friend and Arsenal fan who knows folk in key positions in Arsenal even asked me about him before any of us had the merest whiff - I just poo-pooed it as nonsense). I later heard from someone who had an evening with Cortese, that Arsenal had come clean to Saints in confidence once Mum and Dads scheme was set in motion. Arsenal turned up at Saints for the negotiations, and were told that a deal would be done that day, if Arsenal don't agree to Saints price tag and conditions Arsenal will leave the building and agree never to come in for Alex again. And off he went getting highly paid to build an impressive splinter collection in his backside. There was a tale of one ticking timebomb in the sale agreement, Saints would be paid something like £10,000 when he played more than 10 minutes of a match, if you have any recall on 81+ minutes Alex would be subbed on. After a few months Arsenal received an invoice for over £100,000 from Saints claiming these £10k's, Arse tried to wriggle out of it stating the games and times when Ox took to the pitch after 80 minutes, and Saints countered that with all the 90+ added times those games went to. Of course being a bit of an egotist he was probably reminding Leeds that we had snaffled Lee Barnard from under their noses at half past the 11th hour, and Lee was in SMS the same night Leeds were unveiling him in their home match programme.
  14. Makes the long trip home much more pleasant.
  15. Amazed at how thin our bench is we have 5 Sunderland have 8?! i
  16. I’m waiting for them to fit the retractable pitch to reveal an Ice Rink and reintroduce the Southampton Vikings Ice Hockey Team
  17. 1-1 Bum!
  18. Blundell Park seems to be the place to go for goals recently 17 in the past 2 including 10 today, where they traded goals with Nots County - our very own David McGoldrick thought he’d won it with countys 5th towards the death only for The Mariners to level and share the points.
  19. SS reporting a few p*mpey fans left at half time - that has to be a lie surely
  20. AA settles the nerves
