I didn't start the thread. Just saw a article on newsnow about Verdu, then decided to update the thread entitled "Joan Verdu" Thought it was apt.

exactly this!

Clubcall are saying that Verdu will announce his future plans at a press conference on Thursday.

Sean and Sol saw it all coming, apparently. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2334377/The-Footballers-Football-Column--Sean-Davis-We-saw-Portsmouth-meltdown-coming.html

Love my Cricket, but if this is the case....they are welcome to each other.

I posted this on the "General Sports" board, but feel it would get a better response if posted on here... http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/10468286.Bransgrove_criticises_Saints/?ref=mr Love some of the comments left.

IMHO - He is probably totally unaware of this precise situation.

Right, don't take this the wrong way...its a genuine question. If your Dad couldn't go, and someone went in his place....who at the club would know that the person in that wheelchair is not who they say they are? Luckily, I know nothing about the disabled arrangements at SMS and was just intrigued.

I knew I was going to instantly regret becoming a full member after a couple of years off.

Hang on a sec, how come I coming out of this looking like a c**t. I felt sorry for Turkish, his Dad and their situation. I wasnt having a go at any of them, just pointing out how this thread will be used by some.

At the end of the day Turks, Im glad its been sorted. My Dad hasnt been to a game in 2 years due to having bone marrow cancer and not having an immune system.

The point I was trying to make was that people have been resolving issues long before social media came along. I couldnt see any mention of an ongoing dialougue with club about this situation in the OP, just that they had an incident when trying to purchse tickets (presumably at the ticket office) - so wondered why Turkish would decend to the mong board, before taking it up with the correct channels first. The title of the thread says "Serious post", well if its that serious, its wasted on here. Like I say, some will take this as a dig at his Dad (when it isnt), I just pointing out that all this thread has done is created another arrow for the usual supsects to aim at NC.

Yeah, God knows how people resolved disputes before Facebook and Twitter came along....guess they sent a task force.

I know that, you know that....but the mongs on here dont. It will form part of the "Cortese is a c**t" myth.

Feel sorry for your Dad, and hope it gets sorted, but wouldnt it have been better to wait for their response first before posting on here. You just know the anti Cortese brigade will now include this in the list of outrageous things he's done to the fans, when he probably isnt even aware of this particular situation. You can guarantee there will be a post on here in the coming weeks / months along the lines "...and the ticket tax...and the way he treats disabled supporters.."

George Mallory is famously said to have replied to the question "why do you want to climb Mt. Everest?" with the retort: "because it is there", which has been called "the most famous four words in mountaineering".

This thread deserves an update... http://www.nme.com/news/jd-roots/70663

"Astori is set to report for duty with the Azzurri at the Confederations Cup later this month and would prefer his future to be cleared up before the start of the tournament in 11 days' time" http://www.clubcall.com/southampton/cagliari-defender-auction-to-kick-off-1596684.html So, maybe one deal will be done in the next 11 days....?

What a waste of time reading this thread is, cant believe there is a thread on the packing and contents of our season ticket pack. God, its going to be a long summer.

He seems the type of player that will score 10 in 10, then go 10 games without a goal. Bit like Beattie. Also, at times, it looked as though he was playing with the weight of the world on his shoulders (think its called Torres Syndrome!)

This. I used to go to the Muppet show board to get away from the posters you are referring to, but now even that seems to be dominated by idiots trying to get other banned idiots reinstated.

That's what two tone means....as in two tones of the same colour....as in, they don't match.
