I can't believe you would want to privatise the Beeb, if you have full fat movies an all Sky subscription you are paying obscene (by comparison) viewing figures. Leave it alone, I like my TV without adverts thank you very much.

I have to agree with Thorpe & Marc on Jennifer Ennis and Victoria Pendleton.

I would hazard to say Hammond is on the edge of the outs, as he seems to have lost his bite this season. But the question is who do we back him up with. With Ferguson flirting with the heave-ho at Preston, Chaplow could be flavour of the month back there again.

Years ago folks would fly across the world for peanuts by being couriers, not the narcotic type but documents etc needing to get somewhere guaranteed and putting someone on a plane with an air ticket was cheaper than using DHL or similar. I don't know if in the current air travel environment the companies who organised this type of travel still exist.

I can give you a good example of where that is not quite true: you have someone like that matey Hamza, and other extremists, biting the hand that is feeding him and still keeping a roof over his head free and gratis regardless. Then you take my Auntie who was born in India with English parents (they came back to England in 1947 when she was still little), she decides that she wants to go abroad for her holidays and applies for a passport when into her fifties. The marathon she had to endure to prove her right to being entitled to a British Passport beggared belief, the family history she had to provide was mid blowing, both My Father and Uncle got their passports simple as years before when they did national service. This isn't something from the extreme right tabloids this is real fact, there are sections of our society who can stick 2 fingers up at will who get the least line of resistance approach from the authorities, then there are the law abiding folk who when they put so much as their big toe over the line get jumped all over. Example of that last piece has nothing to do with ethnicity: my wife had her car stolen from outside the house on a Thursday, we informed the police etc. On the Saturday we were told that the car had been found and will be towed in the next hour to a local scrap yard at a cost of x and will be charged at X per day until we sort it out. This we were told in a there is no negotiating on this tone. we are going to do. Yet in there were 3 cars with Police aware notices on them parked on the ringroad at various points from the weekend before our car was stolen until the latter part of the following week. We are hard working honest folks our car is found and towed in the blink of an eye, these abandoned cars complete with number plates etc are just left as the folks who they belong to just stuck 2 fingers up to society, and are more than hard work to pursue.

What a bunch of knobs the only reason they can live in this country with the freedoms of speech they can take advantage of in this way is because of the people who laid down their lives a long time before Iraq and Afghanistan. They did this in the countries they originated from against a remembrance event like today they would be flogged in the streets legally by the authorities and the locals there. Ah well that's Special Branch through my front door at 6am in the morning sometime in the next few days.

£ for £ Augustin Delgado must be a legend of the highest order in this Saints team of Crocks. But what heading do you give to the team that includes Delgado's personal shopper and house maid Chalalala and Pahars bestest mate Bledelis.

Dirty naughty Nun power does it on the match thread: no more Wooting then! What cheeky boys our Saints team is teasing us with a trip to Shrewsbury then they take it away!! -
That's viewing figures of 2 then make that 3 with Hatch

The thing I like about Chaplow is that he knows that the object of Football is to put the ball into the net more times than the opposition, so always seems to want to get into the box as quick as possible, when Spiderman came on the other night his first choice of play seemed to be sideways. That said I would like to see Chaplow and Schneiderlin given a run in midfield as I think they are dynamic players in their own style, that might prove to be a potent combination.

They want to put a station in where I live, it is on the Reading Basingstoke line so a very quiet route compared to Waterloo to Southampton, but network rail said that the disruption to the timetable would make it unfeasible. So a "Rogue" train trundling up a strange track would cause an absolute network meltdown probably with tremors felt out on the far west coast of Scotland. . . . And a damn good excuse for industrial action.

Don't care! As long as I get to walk out of St Marys with a Colgate smile after every game.

He nearly did it 3 times, except Fonte steamed in to make sure it hit the back of the net.

Yeah right Crouchie!! You told him that you were longer in the shower than me!!! Next thing you will be telling folks is that you will be picked for England and are off to Liverpool in the summer!!
-
Think about it, it gets very busy there already!

:facepalm:Won't be for much longer!!

Sometimes when a boat is in port; mostly they have Ricketts, Smallpox, and the like, but the Sarsons in the k o c kles keeps 'em chipper!
-
You get parking tickets there, if you know what I mean?
-
That would be a bit steep to pay to part there............................... although you could parachute out of a Flybe plane straight into St Marys if public transport does not appeal. The spot down by the floating Bridge under the Itchen bridge is a good shout and its is a bit cheaper too.
-
There is a Plan A ~ B ~ C ~probably D & E too! Saturday afternoon Puncheon and Lallana swapped sides I said to the guys alongside me "changing those 2 over has taken the sting from our play a little" within less than a minute of me saying it Adkins had put them back to where they started.

Great news! I still have 4 boxes of merchandise from the last time they rocked up!!

I saw a couple of older gentlemen yesterday in the shop they were wearing our new shirt, but these shirts looked like they had both been climbing trees, scrimping, and rolling down hills on their way to the ground.

That just about sums up todays game. Tranmere were not crap we just had them chasing shadows all afternoon, they quickly worked out that they better keep the score respectable. Guly was great today, when the ball was played out to the corner in the build up to the first goal you thought initially "chuffin hell who was that to!!??" next thing you know Guly is there in a flash tee'ing up for Rickie to head home (boy did that header have some frustration behind it). When someone said Nigel Adkins was in the frame for manager with us I was more than delighted, he must be in heaven himself because, no disrespect to Scunny, he has a great set of players to work with without the budget restrictions he has done miracles with before. What a treat 2 weeks running to come home from a very pleasing Saints performance.
