Brilliant analogy Batman, and one that I'll be borrowing. Now for the scouser's league form to go into free fall - YNWA LMFAO!

He'd have his c*ck out in a jacuzzi again...

Voted, will be interesting to see how the Liverpool Echo cook the books...

By cartel, I mean that competition was more open in that era, or at least felt that way - had to be there I suppose. Sorry to cause confusion.

This is how I remember it too. Perhaps the oddest thing for younger Saints fans to contemplate was the normality of it. There was no cartel (notwithstanding the dominance of Liverpool), and in that decade you had Derby, Ipswich and Forest challenging as well as Saints, and the sheer entertainment value of those McMenemy teams was incredible. I visited cousins in Manchester in the early 80s and saw a good few kids wearing Saints shirts, so it was a very different culture. Really thought we had cracked it that season, and we were top of the table for longer than any other side, but Saints being Saints (even then) we stumbled at the last fence. It would be lovely for this generation of Saints fans to grow up with a similar feeling of normality with Saints challenging season on season!

From the mid eighties until the mid nineties Koeman was world class, and a real problem to overcome for any opposition manager. My favourite player of that era. Also, a fierce competitor and a real hard case, and it's amazing how laid back he seems in management.

They should ground share with the skates (who do need the money); kindred spirits and all that.

Me too, and if you look at our goal difference it's fully deserved over the course of this season.

That's how I remember it, seemed rather odd.

The Cherries. Their natural rivals are Weymouth. They should have more respect, comparatively it's like Rochdale inventing a rivalry with Man Utd. Howe will be off the first sniff of a real football club. I still think they will choke promotion...

Very talented player and a coup when we signed him, I remember him teasingly appearing on the gantry before matches at the Dell, felt like we were being taunted! McMenemy once said that having Charlie George at Saints 'was like having an enormous diamond in a safe and not knowing the combination' - that about sums it up. Perry Groves on the other hand was total sh*t!

One for the cultured

He needs to maintain their current league position and gain 15 points from the remaining games to match Tim Sherwood's performance.

Agree, and the bonus is that 5th for us would be incredible, 6th or 7th for Liverpool or Spurs, given their delusion, is a disaster. Get it right and we may even be instrumental in the sacking of Rodgers and / Pochettino come May.

A very good shout! Knowing our luck we'll get Caesar Romero...

Agreed, but any replacement would likely be for half of that.

Think this is the only chance they will get for promotion to the top flight - and that they will choke...

He's bang on the money, providing we finish above Liverpool and Spurs!

I know John Hartson's big brother Jim, and he once told me that nine times out of ten the line that follows somebody making the family connection is can you shake his hand from me for booting Berkovic. It's a funny old game...

Not my numbers, but the Liverpool Echo's http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/daniel-sturridge-injury-what-liverpool-8933251 - you should email them and put them right. Undoubtedly, typical scouse tossers exaggerating again!

Indeed, £125,000 a minute! Softens the departure somewhat, but what a complete charlatan Rodgers is... http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/daniel-sturridge-injury-what-liverpool-8933251

Scouse rag comparing the candidates to replace him in the side, points out that Lambert has only played 32 minutes of Premier League football this season, 32 minutes! Ouch...

A terrible indictment, which shows how far we've come in a short time. I would hope that modern football fans would be aware of the intrinsic racism attached to most parody fruits and nuts - particularly bananas, coconuts, and melons. As for Sheikgate, I once went to a fancy dress party as Demis Roussos and was accused of portraying Osama Bin Laden, it's a very fine line between love and hate...

If FF is out for several weeks and it's doable Boruc has to return for the run in. The January window debacle with so many Saints fans pointing out the obvious need for striking and goalkeeping cover was always going to lead to this drama! Self abuse...

I'm not sure they would even let him go for that, and I don't think Arsenal could afford / would pay what Saints would want with four years on the contract. Non story...
