Nicely put, it's hard to believe that so many cannot see the objective of the prediction page. Besides if he was that good he'd be on the bookies hit list and living on his winnings!

Callum Chambers and other young players on the books
Doctoroncall replied to benjii's topic in The Saints
Sometimes it's a balance of learning and developing at Saints from the good coaches and playing with the group of lads he knows to gaining that first team experience. Timing is key as you don't want to do it too early to negate the development he's had. They shouldn't be rushed, Shaw is an exception but still needs to be developed in the right manner. -
Colin was due to retire at the end of the season anyway. It gives the board, who didn't back him in the transfer window time to get the new manager in and for him get to know the strengths and weaknesses of the squad and be able to add to it assuming the owners are willing to spend (modestly) for promotion. I agree I though Adkins would have waited for a bigger club, although family ties/moving may have played it's part.

When I was a student, you find ways, make four portions instead of one or share the cooking and the costs with others. Get to know the time the bread, meat and veg are reduced in the supermarket. There are things you can do. We even watched cricket for free at Headingley when they opened up the gates in the last few hours of the day's play. Is there a shift of expectancy where folks used to search out for things that will help, to now, where they'll only accepted it when it's delivered to them on a plate?

That's what I thought, 3 months could be enough before the misery gets to him and he quits.

VIDEO: Gary Neville's analysis of Southampton vs Chelsea
Doctoroncall replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
or the time so they pick on the easy bits to analyse rather than the insightful. Thanks to the OP, I don't have sky so would never see this. -
Another Media outlet to add to the list... the daily telegraph stated Boruc made the great save in the second half, as we all know it was KD. The rest of the article was about RB's bad selection policy! tsk tsk!

Hasn't Chelsea had an international break to deal with.... his bias is coming out again! I'm that close to writing another letter the beeb!!!!

Isn't there a choice you can make, I can't remember precisely something like income drawdown.

It's all about location - think about what you want from schools to commuter time. Make a long list and include what you want in a house - garden, garage etc. Prioritise them so you know what areas you are willing to compromise as you'll always have more than you can afford so something has to give! I've always gone for the upper end of what I can afford but not the max. Much will depend on your job security and saving situation as to what you are happy to borrow and the type of mortgage you have. I've had a few variable and fixed rate but always with an over payment facility... Pay a bit more each month (or a bonus) while you can will dramatically reduce the mortgage term.

Come on Colin, Brazil was only a home friendly match. Roy promised that England would pick up on performances, not let the opposition dominate the ball, and pass better. Well that happen against San Marino - not a hard challenge, but was missing last night. Gerrard was the worst culprit, the captain. I'm happy that Roy is introducing some younger players although the choice is tainted. The only players to perform last night were Hart, Cole and Rooney. Carrick was OK first half but failed to get support from his midfield colleagues, Lescott and Smalling were OK in defence and Milner did his usual huff and puff stuff.
-
Well England have been shít for 84 minutes of this match. Conceding possession so easily and never in control of the match. Something I'm sure Roy said he was addressing.

Fletcher is out for at least six weeks, he may need surgery. Sessègnon is out of the Man Utd game.
-
what is the sell on clause for Clyne?
-
You mean an alter ego log in where he can act real dumb?
-
But it would make a nice present for them to keep the -10 points for next season. I'm sure Oldham can help out.

I think you're missed the irony in the post (intended or otherwise). I like 'Once a Saint'.

He's got the first bit correct. Stainsweb... Lol top stuff!

All WHU are doing is converting an asset (upton park) to liquidity and then using it to pay off their debt and invest in other ways. A £2m a year rent on a 99 year lease is reasonable. Does anyone know what extras the council will earn on, eg, food and drink? it could also turn into a soulless bowl, with the action a distance away from the stands so WHU are taking a risk here but on the whole I don't see a problem. With Saints, the debt was managed so it may have been £27m in total over the length of the mortgage and bank loan conditions but it was cleared in one go on agreed terms with a £5m bonus last year. A good deal all round.

Not only that but any sales on match day or concerts! -

One big difference between Saints and Cov is the ownership of the ground. SISU royally messed up there. -
And you know this how?

You are wrong. It has no relation to then. Football and society have changed drastically since then.
