Whether he is the 'dogs wotsits' or not, it is good business to sign him up to a 3 year deal as his transfer value is likely to be higher if we do ever wish to offload him !

x2 Am quite relieved cos having paid the 72% increase I would have lost my rag had they c*cked it up further !!

Will be interesting to see how they communicate this c*ck up, what's the betting that it is buried in the small print somewhere like they did with the change of concession ages ??

Surely NC only has to invite him to his office, ask him if the Sun article is accurate and (if so!) suggest that if he genuinely feels that way then submit a transfer request ! I've no doubt that Nicola is capable of saving the club a few bob in this way, if necessary !!

Just like the Saints have done in Switzerland ! Wonder why the Skates didn't do it as well ? Oops.......

I think that the nickname 'Bambi' summed him up perfectly ! 'A lightweight creature that skips around with no real purpose' The first time that some big hairy Spanish full back puts in a sliding tackle he'll be on the next plane home !!

Aha, that is cos their fanbase is not considered to be the 'biggest' or the 'bestest' and therefore not subject to the same special status as our Skatey mateys !!

TBF he is doing an 'kin good job !!

The online system was a waste of time so I phoned about 11am, got straight through, the young lad was extremely polite and helpful, the transaction was smooth, they will post the ticket to me in 2/3 weeks time ! I didn't even bother to protest about the 72% increase, must be going soft ! COYS

No, but if you figure out how to do it on the Google calendar then please let me know !

That sounds like an awesome chant, how did you manage to come up with something so original ??

Corks are popping in the Euro household this evening ! My 72% increase has just become a tad more tolerable

This ! (I understand that this is the modern way of agreeing wholeheartedly with a post!)

Do I assume correctly that you are not in favour of the 'love a Skate day' suggestion ??

A perfectly reasonable post ! Perhaps we should have the occasional 'love a Skate' day (or perhaps not, eh??).

Or fewer supporters ? Time will tell I suppose !!

A one word answer - deluded ! HTH

Christ, a pig just flew past my window :)

Given that they've demanded a 72% increase and given that I can apply online but then need to phone before they will actually send it to me, I really should tell them to stuff it, however, I will be renewing ! I will not 'cut off my nose ro spite my face' but sincerely believe that some of the recent decisions have been badly thought out and extremely poorly communicated !! Some of these issues will survive whilst we are on the way up but no doubt will resurface big time if we start to falter !

My preference is to book online and have the ST posted to me ! From what I've read here, this will not be possible without a phone call ! Given that I am paying an extra 72% for the same seat as last year, I really get the feeling that the club should get their act together and provide an up-to-date service which caters for all options ! More than anything their communication is lousy, on the OS announcement there was no mention of online sales and restrictions on posting etc, etc.... Poor show, it is that !!

Is it only me that thinks the term " Official Pouring Rights Partner " is a bit pretentious ?? No doubt that in time they will be know as the OPRP ! All very new world I suppose, but couldn't they just say "our new beer supplier is" ??

Perhaps they will announce that the 72% increase in the ST price for some of their most loyal punters was a big mistake and they have decided to scrap it on the very day that tickets are released?? (Sh#t I've just woken up, I must have been dreaming) !!

Pearce (the CB from Bournemouth) has signed for sure and Norris has allegedly signed too, apart from this it is all speculation and paper talk ! Still, only 2 or 3 more and they will have a starting 11

But the world is our oyster ! (or lobster if you prefer the Arthur Daley version !).

Perhaps you were taking the p1ss but just for the record he is 5'8" ! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Owen
