And new/old. It's actually the badge the club wore for 20 years from the 50's.

No, it is instantly identifiable and distinctive. I believe the design of the ball was updated back in the 90's (from a stitched leather ball to the black pentagon type) to allow for it to be copyrighted. So any redesign is unnecessary on that basis.

Due to the way he ran the club, this will be an extremely interesting interview for us. I'm sure he will offer a very dispassionate and objective perspective. Is anyone able to keep a running commentary on here for those of us who are at work?

Surprised no-one has commented on this, was a good read. The deregulation in the industry really has made it a free-for-all.

We've got Van Dijk, Virgil van Dijk. I just don't think you understand? You signed a fat contract. Just play you greedy tw*t. We've got Virgil van Dijk

Come on Malta!!!

Say hi if he was, they've done a great job with the refit.

Would be surprised if he leaves for Spain, was just in the Tesco Express in Kings' Worthy.

The multiple personality disorder was the main clue for me.

I see it another way, they are looking for a regime change to avoid the risk of an ICBM hitting their population.

We've got Van Dijk, Virgil Van Dyke, I just don't think they understand......

Just when I wondered why I no longer listen to that drivel....

A shame, but hope he gets his mojo back.

Ha! The importance of context.

Come on Sherlock, explain yourself.

Absolutely. It's about more then just Virgil and the transfer fee, this is about our very integrity.

Fully deserved. A model pro who has never shirked his responsibilities.

Southampton, you are drunk. And what's more you are disgustingly drunk!!! We may be drunk, but in the morning we shall be sober and you, you shall still be stinking, self aggrandising, narcisstic, vulgar, mongrel Scousers.

All the best to Gazza. The mention above that he and Pochettino are family friends, could his signing in the summer of 2012 have been a foreshadowing of the upcoming managerial change?

Marcos Rojo.

A great shame it's not worked out for him. But, we will always have that goal up at the Hawthorns.

Considering that my age was a negative figure at the time, i'll take one out of two!!

Ball and Channon?

It's run by the same people who used to have the Programme shop in the Chapel stand. Extremely friendly people, happy to provide advice and made an effort to source a specific programme I was after (The Saints 8-2 Cov programme from the day after I was born.)

Like the confidence in creating the thread. Fits our profile and we need more at CB. Look forward to seeing how he gets on.
