That Ritchie goal for the Cherries what an absolute gem.

If you look at the referee appointments they pretty much bill it like that.

What Joy Battenburg on the Whistle for the game, and Brenda chum the 4th official. 13 men for United then.

Blimey Charlie! I never had Richard Keys, WGS, King Kenny, and Lee Sharpe down has Twocers!!! I will give then a wide berth on the North Course and keep my beady eye on them in the Car Park!!

Blimey Goat that is sublime and bold with Gallions Reach!! East India is the best I can do

With 3 days elapsed since posting and no replies. All I can offer is, it's near the sea, the Airport is nice, and if you drive the hire car like you stole it you can get to La Manga resort in an hour.

Seems a bit of a pea-souper has appeared Colin me old mucker, you offered Knightsbrige to the Johnny with the Gun, South Ken was offered in to the arena after the Goatchappie posted a relative up on a roof!!????!! Seems like LBA has the last entry still....... and there is no bally chance of getting from there to MC in one go.

Needs Clarification.............. South Ken was more of a question in response to Goatboy playing with a diverse agenda of random photographic clues.

Just to qualify TK8267 at little, we had Zenith round just to give us a price idea for a new front door. As he was doing his stuff we added in an insulated motorised roller garage door and a new fangled finish small flat roof it came to £10k, with all his jiggery pokery it came down to about £8k, then £6k. 6 weeks later we got a letter saying about some co-operative scheme which shuffled it down to (a very tempting) just over £4k. They wouldn't do that work for that price and make nothing along the way.

Well this is the 21st Century, I guess we have to open our minds young scallywags like Goatchap, modernising the game: even if his clues are a bit 3-2-1 with Dusty Bin and Ted Rodgers........... Well seeing as he is new to this I am assuming he his taking baby steps, so I can only think of the Rooftop Garden at the Tara Hotel where I had a soirée with Hashimotos (ahem)elder sister........ South Kensington ?????

Not so fast! There's you getting all September rules and forgetting the 1964 Bayswater Alliance ruling subsection Q, paragraph 12, note iii, where in the month of September a move to the Northern line Saff of the River from the Bakerloo Line is forbidden, in the extraordinary meeting of 24th December 1979 when Dollis Hill became part of the Jubilee Line it was decreed the original ruling would stand to avoid confusion having already changed lines once before in 1939. Better have another go Old Chap

Cheers Napalm! between the summer and autumn equinox I make that Dollis Hill!!

Ssorry chaps just passed this open door and couldn't believe none of you had used the 1937 Savoy Grill addendum....... Temple Toodle pip!

A good defender is definitely in there, he just has the look of a battle weary defender who has spent the last 2 seasons in defences that have been under the cosh, so clears the ball in the vain hope that one of his team mates will get hold of the ball and keep it long enough for him to catch his breath. That said looks a menace in the oppos box when he goes up there.

Think it's been referred to as the Titanic effect........... Should never have left Southampton.

5 games in and the only goals Newcastle have scored have all been against us. Alan Pardew must have looked at the table last night and had a quiet smile to himself.

Not forgetting for those wishing to stay the night they have a choice of over 200 rooms, many with a sea view........ standing on tiptoes

But looking in from the outside, whilst they may have progressed the progression has appeared to be very laboured. Ok they have been hampered by injuries along the way, which is not good and as has been mentioned already easily acquired, If you look at Aaron Ramsey by comparison who is a similar age, up until that nasty leg break he was progressing at a much faster rate.

I thought we beat the Krauts................... ah well you always learn something new on SaintsWeb everyday!

I always remember Saints Academy playing Villa Academy in the Academy Final at SMS when Bale was with us and had played quite a bit of the full season, there were lads like McGoldrick Dyer in the team, but Bales presence and demeanor in that game stood out he looked so much more like a seasoned pro due to him getting so much 1st team match time.

It was mentioned only last season on MOTD when talking about youngsters in the side, it might have even centered around Chambers costing a lot of money and having to pretty much find his feet rather than being specifically coached as he was with us, Walcott and Oxo taking their time to also nail down a permanent spot and position in the team was also mentioned......... both of them also cost the kind of money most teams would pay for a player you would expect to drop into the team pretty quickly, even with the money Arsenal have. It was quite surprising to hear, but how often do you see someone roll off the Arsenal academy into the first team, league cup games aside.

Interesting, We were watching the game with friends and "strangers" on Saturday evening, one of them piped up saying that Walcott Oxo Shaw and even Chambers would have been far better players if they had stayed at Southampton longer. With Walcott in particular the discussion went on to say that he looks like a player with undoubted ability, but the bit that is missing is that he sometimes lacks knowing exactly what he is doing in certain situations, and had he stayed longer at Southampton that piece of the jigsaw wouldn't be missing; and that similar could be said about Oxo. It has been said that while Wenger is a good Manager, developing players especially youngsters is not in his portfolio. Walcott has often been given as an example.

If he expects to be paid what he is on at the moment for us, sat on his lazy backside, then the next club needs to carry out a full psychological appraisal on him! Sadly he will see out his contract with us because of this.

Think Toby answered your question in his comments about playing behind Vic and Morgan last season, you have one bloke its going to take half a day to get round and another who is going to nick the ball off you more often than not and subtly rough you up in the process, so as a defender you are primed positioned and ready much earlier to do your job making you look good. Last season Lovren was behind Henderson and good old Stevie G on his farewell tour of the prem, Gerrard as a midfielder was shocking his head said bomb forwards but his body and legs said sod that Charlie so he was betwixt and between leaving Lovren far more exposed than he was with us. So ill discipline aside, he returned to looking like the just Ok defender he was at Lyon we took a punt on, sprinkle a bit of Defender turned Managers nous on him stick him behind a solid structure bingo! Pigs Ear into Silk Purse.

Just saw something bonkers on the Beeb regarding this 19 year old nipper!
