  1. In all seriousness, how do you manage that in a ten year old? Clearly unacceptable and just making things weird for the other kids.
  2. All the best to your Dad Si. Horrible thing to have to cope with, glad you have both come through it.
  3. Even broken clocks are right twice a day.
  4. Can remember this like yesterday. Was inspired by my O/H and some friends at the time to investigate setting up a new forum to replace SaintsForever, only for Steve, Baj et all to be even quicker still!
  5. Always nice to see some praise, especially from a website that usually talks some sense.
  6. Mine was briefly glanced at on the way into the San Siro.
  7. The use of our squad has been a real highlight. It also does partly address the catch-22 need for our out of contention players to have the opportunity to get back to match fitness in a competitive environment. Can it leave us 'blunted' when it comes to specific games? Possibly, but it clearly is helping us stay fresh for these matches rather then just hammering the same starting eleven repeatedly and going into them shattered. We have not played badly yet this season in my personal opinion. We have been wasteful and looked a little rusty in the first few games but we have never been totally battered or outclassed. We are bemoaning points dropped rather then poor performances. This tells me we are doing something fundamentally very right.
  8. The taxi driver we used at 9am said, I directly quote : "Everything go to **** at 9." The strike didn't effect the flights but there was more traffic in Milan on Friday as people steered away from public transport. Did anyone else use the 'myTaxi' app over there? Really good.
  9. Without wishing to sound blasé, the prices simply didn't matter. Was only there for small part of the trip, wanted to soak in the atmosphere. Found a great bar in Lambrate just around the corner from our accommodation for the Wednesday night. Saw Napoli v Besiktas in there. Cracking match.
  10. 13 Euros a piece for a Birra Grande at a Restaurant just down from the Duomo.
  11. A few of us at Birmingham.
  12. To be fair, for the replays they are useful. It was great for seeing the full detail of Heaton's save on Sunday from the other end of the ground.
  13. According to the Sun, We are still in 2015. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/2001718/inter-milan-vs-southampton-what-are-the-odds-what-channel-is-it-on-and-what-is-latest-team-news/
  14. Wouldn't be surprised to see him on the bench for Inter. Give him something of a rest. Wouldn't be surprised to see a front three of Tadic, Long, Boufal.
  15. Still nothing back from Air Brussels, asked again today and they say that they are currently unaffected from Linate. They made pains to confirm my contact details though....
  16. The club must have asked Carlsberg, the sponsor, for a recommendation. Probably will be ignored.
  17. Hear hear!!! Staying up near Lambrate station, apparently there's a fair few bars and restaurants in the vicinity. Looking forward to checking them out tomorrow evening.
  18. As in, driving all the way to Milan!?
  19. Make the kits last two years again, put the away/third kit on rotation in the alternating year with the home kit.
  20. Very much this.
  21. Boufal to score the winner on his debut at the San Siro? Anyone?
  22. Think you hit the nail on the head with the lack of 3pm Saturday kick-offs. To come down from Burnley for a 4pm Sunday kick off with work the next day. Fair play to the ones who made it at all.
  23. As an aside, was really pleased to see a foul throw given. Always used to drive me nuts watching these elite players get something so utterly basic wrong and never have any come-back from it. And yes, I am entirely aware it was given in Burnley's favour!
  24. Once you have logged into your account on the store website you should see your discounted price in red above the RRP. If not, e-mail the store with your customer number (from your season ticket) explaining the situation and they should rectify it for you.
