I reckon we suggested Disneyland so that he'd get an idea of what a Mickey Mouse club looks with Goofy in charge.

You've got it wrong ..... we are buying Gareth Bale ....... FACT ...... (that I may have just made up!!)

Okay not from another Prem team, but Toby's loan didn't work out well in the end for us did it!! Mind you if he'd stayed, we wouldn't have bought VVD, yet somehow you'd quite easily seeing us fighting off Liverpool amongst others for him in exactly the same way we are having with VVD now :-(

Not surprised. Dubai_Phil has had a bad knee for a while now and had a check up a few days ago, maybe an op or meds or physio needed. Not sure what he is doing in Ajax though!!

As should VVD

Too many people slagging the poster instead of the post itself. Poor old Alpine gets the same treatment. Neither of you are angels, but not agreeing with whatever you've posted doesn't give anybody the right to give you grief . Anyway back on track .... nothing much has changed on The VVD situation ..... pretty much the same as what will happen next time certain posters air their views I guess.

Probably LFC valuing him at 30 million yet would rather play people out of position than use him? Do they see him as damaged goods or bad influence.? They can't be seen to calling the shots of overpricing somebody they want shot of, and at the same time undervalue somebody they are gagging for it to have. Phuck em.

The shirts they are wearing today don't have players names on, so in reality they could have worn any shirt I guess.

So this would explain why just about every pic of seen of him so far he has been totally on his own. Phew glad he's not sulking or gettng cold shoulder treatment. Having seen how the Media Dept are working with The Kit Reveal and now Stuart Taylor Contract extension, I'm beginning to wonder if the club are purposely not showing many pics of VVD and no comments being made, are they doing this just to wind up the scousers? Maybe VVD has accepted the fact that he is staying and is in on it as well ..... remember him wearing The Secret Santa gift of a Man City shirt last year? Maybe Pigs will fly as well .... but here's hoping. The sheer joy of the disappointment the scousers would feel would make my summer .... too much to ask for?

That's one hell of a hard act to follow when(if) we actually do sign someone. Hope our team on the pitch prove to be as creative as our Marketing Team have been with this and The Kit Launch this summer.

You've already done enough inappropriate talking already you gurning piece of dog turd and got away with it, so just go ahead and display some more lack of class. You and Liverpool are made for each other.

Judging by various player's FB and Titter pics, some will have had enough of sunshine and beaches. Let's get back to business in a place with few distractions. Ideal.

I'd rather dwell on U I Nick's clever switch of VVD's Contract to checking out of the hotel early ...... top work However a source close to Southampton FC said. "This has enraged the club who were hoping that he would stay in the Alp view room for at least another night and hopefully the five remaining nights of the team's stay, they feel that this is a blatant tapping up of a guest by the Hilton Group and intend to report them to the Hoteliers Association in the morning" Saints Director of football Les Reed stated. "Virgil Van Dijk was happy to check into an Alp view room for six nights only a few hours ago, we have no intention of letting any of our players move to another room, unless it s in the best interests of the club, ie if they offer a huge discount and perhaps throw in a few free full Alpen breakfasts"

Exchanging Escape Plans?

I miss not having Cortese around to do do the contract deals.

I hope the club sent him a picture of his contract as a birthday card yesterday .... with a Countdown Clock in the corner clicking down how many Years, Months, Weeks, Days, Hours, Minutes and Seconds he has left before he gets his wish If Liverpool had any intention of ever sticking to their part of the "apology" of not taking the matter any further, they don't seem to have let VVD know

Ground Hog Day ......

Harsh!! .... but probably true

See Post #91 ....... please pay attention at the back there sonny!!

After initially being chuffed that we'll be playing more Traditional 3 o clock Saturday games ..... it suddenly dawned on me ..... I know we didn't play many of them last season but didn't we fail to win a single one of them

THIS.

There was a TV series on around the time about slavery in US called Roots. One of the main characters was called Chicken George!! Added to his impersonation of a headless chicken as he ran down the wing, head down, only to come to a halt when he collided with the wall at The Milton or Archers Rd end All very much before Political Correctness was discovered !!

From the same era for me would have to be Eric Martin. Big Crazy Hair, which gave he his Nickname of Harpo from The Marx Brothers and as becomes goal keepers quite eccentric. His ritual of throwing the pre match kick about balls into the groundsman sack on the touch line and swapping positions with Channon and taking penalties whilst Mickey took up the keepers position, was often more entertaining than some of the matches that followed!!

Have we signed The Invisible Man as our new manager? Just the one quote from him, no pictures .... WTF is happening? Even if he is on holiday, surely some sort of Interview and Gratuitous Shirt Holding Picture could have been rustled up?
