My choice would have to be Sarmiento. That boy was class.

Mods, had I realised this thread would descend into a 19C ***** fest I would never have started it, Please close it.

Never mind that! Did you see the bit where it states: 'Even the cash strapped Saints.....' Er, Cash strapped!?!?

She's dirty, I like that. And I can't believe no-one has mentioned her yet: A night of the raunchiest sex you've ever had followed by the best breakfast you've ever tasted!

Not sure, I wasn't aware that either of those happened THIS F**KING YEAR. The more I think about this the angrier I get!!!!!!

A complete f*cking joke. A Plastic Manc hijack. A bit part player for a team that performed worse then the prior season. Utterly stupid.

Skates - Well, come on. Derby - That playoff semi final, they win and still decide to attack the away end. C**ts. Leeds - Horrible, dirty place. Success built on a foundation of thuggery and money they never had. Aston Villa - Fans who feel they have a divine right for success and do not stop bloody moaning, and the 3-2, god that still hurts so much. Newcastle - Utter total dellusion. They must live on a different plane of existence to the rest of the footballing world. Only they could ever see Keegan returning as a good thing, and their fans are dreadful. Blackburn - Pathetic little club with no rightful claim to have been as big as they claim they are. (Include Boro and Wigan in that too.) Dover Athletic/Folkestone Invicta - My other team, Margate's, nearest and dearest. F**k 'em. MK Dons - Everything wrong with football today. They should not exist, plain and simple. Spurs - Big time f**king charlies.

Fingers crossed for your Moggie Bridgey. If anything similar to this happened to my two I would be worried sick. Let us know how it pans out.

What a complete reverse of the medals system that would have left anyone outside the top 3 with basically nothing to show for.

While I respect the sentiment, he has my trust until somethings happens to show it's misplaced. As things stand though, no reason to doubt him!

My Dad has made the (frankly brilliant!) suggestion of buying me a Half season ticket for Xmas, however, after looking at the tickets sections on the main website it's clear that there is no direct lin to purchase one. I know where I want to sit, so it's just a question of making the purchase. However: Where do I got prices from? Will dad be able to make the purchase on my behalf? Can this be done online or only at the St Mary's Ticket office? Thanks for any help you can give guys.

I get the same impression, all the same we have to let him know how much we currently think of him.

Wow, just, wow. Makes our 1,800 at Walsall looks bad.

Words fail me. Who thought that would be a good idea?

Love you too darling.

Patience dear MB, patience.

You have three types of people in life, dicks, pussies and arseholes.....

Surely bates can't be the only one of us that listens to radio 2 Incidentally, the guy from the Telegraph who wrote the article on their debt was on Talksport earlier, he was very certain in his findings that they need fresh capital NOW!

A very bullish response. Sadly though, you do not get smoke without fire. Watford being threatened by their failure to pay being the key ignition point!

Who's gloating? I just feel no sympathy, there's a difference.

I feel for Watford there, it's not their fault, they sold in good faith (which incidentally is the only thing seemingly keeping the Skates going and it is FAST running out.) I wasn't aware that the football money could be 'blocked.' Talk about a good way to scupper a business plan!

If other Skates were as balanced as you I may actually have considered feeling sympathy right now. As it is, you are a minority, most revelled in our near death last year, so f**k you all. Here's to Bournemouth! Soon to be our only valid local rivals.

Whichever way you dress that up (pre-xmas sale for their SUPER fans!) that is desperate.

Take no chances, put out our strongest side.

Considering 6 players have been mentioned as a number then we should certainly consider that Pards wants to get a Championship standard/competitive squad in time for next season. As such, 4 players in the summer would be dependant on where we finish at the end of this season.
