Boll0cks, haven't got sky so it'll be merry Merrington on Saints Player after flying back from San Francisco!

Surely this is only one piece of the strategy that NC has considered and is dependent on the others. It will only happen if, firstly the success on the pitch is there, the southampton style is seen, and the player development continues to improve (shaw, ward-prowse, sinclair etc). Give the fans something good to watch, home grown talent, perhaps a few stars and even a bit of success and they will come, otherwise it'll be like before a mid ranking club selling out a 32k stadium on most matches.

Depends on you risk profile and what other investments you have. There are some decent capital guarantee bonds out there for 4yrs or select a decent investment management company (e.g. jupiter) to help with the potential growth. Otherwise you may want to dabble yourself if willing to do a bit of research.

Gordon Watson (if you count England u21 matches) ;-)

In the style of Trousers: Manager bigging up his own team shocker!

It was close between you and number 2... but you got my vote. Congrats btw and hope it goes well.

What's Boro's home record like against the top ten?

please sir, spare a thought for Portsmouth... http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/apr/17/portsmouth-port-vale-points-deduction

Time for some quick wingers and some counter-attacking play, if Cardiff and Blackpool don't win Middlesborough will have to go for it!

A well organised team, good clinical finishing of the chances they have in the game (oppo had more shots again tonight) with a decent young manager. Hopefully we'll be with them next season.

I'm at work in South San Francisco, so will rely on the forum for updates unless I can somehow get Saints Player to work in the office (may get a visit from the IT folks though)! COYRs!!!!

Ditto from sunny california, wish I was there at London Road though.

The last time the midfield contributed to the goals tally was the 10th March, with Lallana scoring two goals. 18th February again with Lallana. It's the 14th January since a different midfielder has scored - Gully and schneiderlin helping out then. It seems are midfield dynamism has gone and the opposition are pressing more.

Time to put a tenner on the treble for Saints to win the last three matches!

Was going to go to this match, now find myself attending meetings half way across the globe - ******s!

Duty free is applicable when flying outside the EU. You have less in allowances than tax free. Tobacco and spirits are classed as duty items. Tax free prices is where the retailer pays for the VAT on behalf of the customer so prices are cheaper than the high street (well mostly) otherwise there wouldn't be so many shops at the entry ports. If you buy while visiting an EU country then you pay the tax at source and there is still an allowance on goods, but a generous one.

We are NOT their bitter rivals!

Well they dislike the skates so that's always a good sign.

Well it is Easter and the rise of the fallen!

Brown managed to 'take care of' Karacan so will not be playing against us.

She's delusional - thinks everyone finds her attractive and buys her stuff because of it... And made an article about it in the Daily Mail. Edit: Oh, forgot to add the other important bit - other woman hate her for being attractive and such a great person.

Initially I was but then after a dozen or so iwas very glad it wasn't!

It is the best of a bad lot, the other team have to flog a dead football club!

Derby player, a bit of a trouble maker I heard, the same for his previous club in Scotland.

Do you have the FL reference? I must admit my recollection was from memory.
