  1. Which is fair play. But to be so adversarial against people playing, enjoying and appreciating the game of any category is something I simply cannot understand.
  2. Ahem: To which you responded fair enough. Now, as i've been indulging you, answer: Why do you dislike it so much that you need to challenge those that enjoy it?
  3. For the reasons I mentioned earlier. Why do you dislike it so much that you need to challenge those that enjoy it?
  4. It's all good. And I enjoy watching a category that exists in it's own right (Women's Super League) as part of it. Going back to a political point The9 raised, the forced relegation of Doncaster Belles was awful, vulgar in every respect. Cannot agree with it, but as the top level of women's football i'm glad it's getting exposure and can be watched.
  5. Yes, there have been games at park level (good description The9) that I have gained more enjoyment from then professional games which required paid entry. I just enjoy watching football. Better a 5-5 draw then a 0-0 grind at any level when it comes to teams I have no bias towards.
  6. When it comes to teams I don't really care about that's all I want. Best not to dwell on significance because all sport is utterly facile and irrelevant when it comes to the fundamentals. On it's own basis women's top flight football is entertaining. Throw in a Saints ladies team at the top level and it would be even better.
  7. If you unfairly compare it to men's football then yes. But taken on it's own merits it can still be enjoyed, like any level of football. It's still two teams going for it to win, that in itself provide a spectacle,. I really enjoyed watching the last day of the Women's Super League. One of the Manchester City players scored a truly wonderful goal in their surprise win over Chelsea. Just a shame that the scousers prevailed but twas good drama.
  8. Yep, Enjoyed the pint even more when Hughie Fisher and Jim Steele turned up and humoured my fanboy leanings in the Gaolhouse afterwards! An excellent evening Duncan, enjoyed it immensely. Superb effort from all concerned.
  9. Fingers crossed. Watching the final weekend of the women's super league at the weekend I had wondered why efforts hadn't been made to reintegrate the Saints ladies team into the club. As part of our apparently renewed friendly community ethos it would be great to have them back in the fold properly, especially as the facilities to run them seamlessly in house would be already built. No need for them to play their matches at Sholing/Eastleigh/Totton when there is a mini stadium at the training ground.
  10. Thanks, looking forward to it.
  11. Duncan. Any idea of the anticipated finish time? (Last bus back to Kings Worthy is stupidly early.)
  12. They are on Amazon, just did a quick search, straight up.
  13. It was about favourites rather then best. So yep, a bit left field. Always admired Telfer for his professionalism, felt he was an unfair scapegoat. As for Camara, he gave me hope in that dreadful season, his thunderf**k of a strike up at St Andrews where he almost single handedly earnt us a point from nothing is something I will always remember fondly.
  14. No worries mate. It's easy to lose context on these forums.
  15. Entirely fair comment.
  16. Why not play them both? Le Tiss in the hole and Beckham on the right.
  17. I actually don't think he does. It appears that he wants to keep everyone happy, speak as many nice things as possible and that will make things ok. It appears as though he cannot see that this in fact makes him look even worse then keeping quiet as there are too many contradictions in his interviews. He is clearly full of sh*t yet can't stop spouting it.
  18. Just another footballer caught up in the bubble of being a footballer. His actions as before and always betray his words, wish the rat would just shut up.
  19. I would recommend Wynne's School of Motoring. Eastleigh based, saw me through my test 11 years ago and I still see them around Winchester. http://www.yell.com/biz/wynnes-school-of-motoring-eastleigh-3271240/
  20. Once it has arrived.... if you could be so kind.
  21. His chilling assault on Haaland is surely one of the most despicable pre-meditated acts in the history of the game. Ending someone's career after they dared suggest you were faking an injury. Not out of proportion, oh no. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/manchester-united/11144315/Roy-Keane-insists-he-has-no-regrets-over-horror-tackle-on-Alf-Inge-Haaland.html Yet I am yet to meet a Manchester United fan who will criticise him for it.
  22. After reading those tweets, Yeah; that's fair enough. Venting behind the scenes would have been a little better though.
  23. A favourite eleven..... Ok. GK: Niemi DL: Bridge DR: Telfer DC: Fonte DC: Svensson DM: Schneiderlin DM: Cork AMR: Camara AMC: Le Tissier AML: Pahars S: Lambert Subs: Jones, Ostlund, Lundekvam, Oakley, Beattie, Bale, Tessem.
  24. He is not worth 12m as a player. But he has brought much needed competition and depth. If only he had converted that header v Liverpool though.... He needs a goal and quickly.
  25. 'Ere we go. http://livesport4u.com/stream1.html
