Nice one Gemmell, tapped into the feelings of many on here. Cortese must be congratulated for being very canny in this window. Saints took it to united for much of the match on Saturday and looked like a TEAM, Chappers, Harding and Butterfield epitomised this new bond and heart that the players seem to have. So, the two new additions (both well known to NA) will fit this team ethic, versatile six footers with power and pace, lots of options and competition. AL and AC is the icing on the cake and a win, win. If we get promotion things are cranked up another notch, it becomes a more difficult proposition for the player to leave, and a much more difficult proposition for any courting club to put in an appropriate offer - AC @ £10M after half a season in division three, how much for him after half a season at the top end of the Championship per se with a few England U21 caps? Now all we have to do is tear this league a new one, and I rather think we will...

Hear, hear, 'plucky lower league clubs...better quality showed in final half hour'...

I vote for Ian McShane in Yesterday's Hero...

Yes, I believe it's Nicola's friends in high places in Italy, giving us offers we can't refuse...

James Corden to Weigh****chers...

If the powers that be decide we need a keeper, don't be surprised if it's Joe Murphy from Scunny...

Wouldn't surprise me to see Joe Murphy from S****horpe at Saints (I think that he is out of contract in the summer). Commanding keeper and was brilliant for Adkins in this league...

Ditto that Vectis, along with Terry Gennoe, who seemed to lose all confidence after the 1979 Cup Final...

Too F*CKING real. And oddly familiar...

When I read his posts I always envisage Johnny Vegas's character in Benidorm. Morbidly obese, attention-seeking, fortysomething, living with his mother, sexually repressed, confused, deluded virgin. A sort of fat, mentally sub normal, Walter Mitty...

To be fair, when I heard him speak at the Reform Club last Wednesday I thought it was Lesley Philips. Cut glass...

All being well I look forward to playing Blackpool next season, and a rousing chorus of 'Championship you're having a laugh' Respect due...

I think that tonights events are a show of strength and a message of intent! COYR...

Spot on FF! Also, certainly more spice than drawing Chelski or the Arse, given our history with United. I bet their kit man is in a quandary...

Smut! But I did Lol!...

Having has tracked his arch enemy from the cesspit of deviance that is Blackpool, Batman spies the Riddler in the Blackpool dugout - talking even more b*llocks than usual and defending a criminal lack of talent...

Good, solid morale boost, and another success indicator carrot for potential targets! Onwards and upwards...

If it is Norwich we should be very afraid indeed. East Anglia's answer to Santos would be able to offer Lambert riches both on and off the field that a division three feeder club like us can only dream of...

Can't see this one at all, in the current situation a move sideways at best. The only way this would seem to have legs is if RL is unhappy or NA doesn't want him for his team, neither of which seems to be the case. As with the Seabourne rumour, lazy journalists on a quiet day stating the bleeding obvious - that some times teams in a higher division target players in the top teams of the league below - unfortunately SFC don't fit the standard blueprint and most of the local rag hacks are too f**king lazy to do the appropriate research! Next...

Until we are back in the Premier League we are always going to run the risk of losing talented youngsters. Of course we can make it difficult for the player to leave and difficult for the courting club, but ultimately we cannot pay a 20 year old £40K per week in the third division and unsettle all of the senior pros at the club. When we are back in the Premier League it will be easier for us to compete, but until then this is going to be a sword of Damacles every time we have a good player in a transfer window. One thing is certain, Cortese will squeeze whatever club attempts to sign AL or AC until the pips squeak and every penny will go back into the team...

and a pleasant demeanor to boot!...

We should sign Steve Austin, getting on but still got a great engine and leaps like a salmon! Also, already has the red tracksuit...

Priskin is a quality player, got an awful lot to his game and much more to come, would be a great signing. Think we have as much chance of signing Michael Jackson as Michael Owen! Trousers I agree with your sentiment wholeheartedly, but would not be so quick to write off Billy Dainty's motivational skills, the dream team of Dainty and Arthur English could be the final piece in the SMS backroom jigsaw...

BHS, having lost and imploded on the attendance argument, would you care to start up the 'Premier League seasons', 'top flight seasons', 'european campaigns', 'full internationals', 'England internationals', 'FA Cup wins', 'cup finals', or 'best catering and radio station' arguments? Do you live near Canal Street? 22500 LMFAO...

You are spot on Gemmell, I now clearly remember the vitriol against Dazza Anderton. Also, being somewhat surprised to see us referred to as 'scummers' - as a youth supporter in the late 1970s the rift between the clubs was widening and we only met the f*ckers for cup games. On another thread hijacked by the seaweed fan BHS (with the charisma and intellect of Jimmy Krankie with ADHD) I mentioned the Brighton cup game of 1986 when Biley was a substitute and refused to come on due to the wall of hatred from the Saints fans on the opposite side to the dugout. When he finally did come on the 'scummer, scummer' chants were defeaning and Rolex perpetual, happy days. If we ever get to play the blue few again I think we should rally for the return of the chant. Next time you are coming out to the Forest for a beer let me know as Inches is getting right on my tits with his plans for the maze...
