For the less politically motivated is that not what it boils down to ? my partner likes Cameron, not for his policies but simply because she thinks he sounds like a nice man and reminds her of Blair, when I question her further she then refers to the family tragedy experienced and although I pointed out Brown experienced similar it it came down to her believing Brown looks scruffy and awkward, style over substance will win every time for a large percentage imo

Did I hear rightly this morning that their 'Saudi billionaire' borrowed the 5mil to loan them ? (for the avoidance of doubt I refer to the most recent saudi billionaire owner not to be confused with last weeks one)

Murder, Suicide or natural causes ?

Read a link this morning on the Echo website referencing threads started on here about EDL printing the posters user name etc.. Does this fall into the category of "any publicity is good publicity", for the forum ?

Gordan Brown went up to a prostitute and said "I'm Prime Minster of England, how much will it cost me to spend the night with you ?" she replied "Mr Prime Minister, if you can get my skirt as high as my taxes my pants as low as my wages, your penis as hard as the times we are living in and keep it rising like the price of fuel and screw me like you have the pensioners, it won't cost you a penny !"

Agree 100% but I suppose as long as some questions remain unanswered threads such as this will continue to pop up.

Have to agree with this post, except of course, the shocked bit

Noone could have seen the eventual outcome, however, many had the foresight to see all the crap that happened prior to ML, luck ? judgement ? I am grateful for where we are now but certainly would not advocate the twists and turns which admin brought.

Thought this part of the post important, this will ensure this summers experience will never be repeated, sadly(yeah right) those at the wrong end of the 27 will suffer similar but with, imo, less opportunity of an ML type steppping up. I like most want to see a change in the results but will remain patient and keep believing that run of wins is just around the corner(starting Saturday, of course). Good post landford

It is offensive on so many levels and a disgrace that it is allowed to hang on a public wall in Southampton.

Perhaps they bloody well do and equally may have good reason, why not poll those in the armed forces and obtain opinion then you will be in a position to make an informed judgement on those who serve our country.

Good shout shurlock, when a poster states he will take up the invitation of a season ticket at the Emirates he loses credibility on a Southampton Fans Forum

Staying up is what I will be happy with this season and I believe we will, too much has gone on for expectation to remain so high, preperation is key and we had little or none. Still not looking to push the button.

I too believed it was a good gig for him, nothing about his cv cries out premiership quality(in management) yet still he does not take it, it must be that dire he couldn't even see it as a stepping stone, hey ho

I doubt if the failure to agree terms related to his salary, would suggest it would be about investment in the team so will take this as another sign the great Dr's dough will do nothing for them, "in principle"

Maybe he is already getting it !!

Really ? see you tomorrow, just like the others who suggested the same

Strange indeed, however, they probably want him to sit tight as he has that consortium in the background for when "in principle" amounts to nothing

My heritage would only be evident by name oppose to accent as born in this country to an English Mother..so not a horrible time in the maine, I find some of the jokes funny and am guilty of repeating them and like you took/take them for what they are, invariably, as you suggest, the true meaning behind them was lost on us due to our youth

I would suggest some people did feel that way about the Irish during those times, okay this type of media was not available for the ignorant to gather and post but people who held positions of responsibility held very strong views, sometimes unable to hold back from expressing their dislike, I talk from personal experience. When the bomb went off in East Street( 78 ) many innocent Irish were arrested, some simply because they were out of work, my Father was one of those people, to have the Police break down your door at 0430hrs in the morning with guns was a very scary situation, to be locked in a bedroom whilst they ripped the house apart, opening Christmas presents etc..was devastating for my Mother, however, it was a process of elimination and perhaps the mentality of guilt by association that existed, should due to the current threat they be doing the same to those who are of muslim faith ? I would hope our intelligence networks have more to go on than, he's out of work, he drinks in Shirley Social Club he socialises with such and such but if that process is all they have then I would suggest it is necessary. The experience did not turn me into someone who hates the English or the Police or even someone who agreed with the terrorists actions as even then as now I knew right from wrong and attempting to blow up innocent people is wrong.

This 'fact' was discovered some time ago on this thread but agree a silly thing to diclose whatever the motive

Made me laugh
