Agreed, I thought that he was very impressive !

He did say that but didn't give any timescale which was a bit disappointing !

You check Tony's plums and I'll check the housewife's melons, deal ??

Your lot must be very knowledgable, I thought it was Bert Scriven !!!

Devil's advocate here : Man Utd have never been shy in poaching players from lower premiership teams when it suits ie. Louis Saha and Van Der Sar from Fulham. Also wasn't the signing of Rooney from Everton a similar saga to the Lescott one ? Kinda works both ways methinks and many folks would be surprised to learn that the value of the Utd starting line up was more than that of City (Rooney, Berbatov and Ferdinand were £90 mil alone between them !).

Don't you think that it's a fair assumption that if he was with the Liebherr lot in the director's box then he was invited ?? Maybe he's just a friend of a friend (christ, even I've done it at Chelsea!) but I think it's a bit much having a pop at Morph for his pretty logical assumption !!

I think that a couple of the scrawny little Yeovil lads took one look at 'Dellboy & Radhers' and muttered "Oh Sh#t" ! The match on Saturday reminded me of many games I saw last season where one team was full of dainty youngsters playing a neat passing game but getting nowhere and the other was fearsome and resolute with a 'thou shall not pass' mentality. Fortunately we have reversed roles since then, giving us a much better chance of winning games !

Betting issue - 14 years ago ! Pinnacle issue - new owner now in place ! Both have now been done to death and have no bearing on our future so can we please consign both these subjects to history ???? (in laymen's terms - FFS give it a rest!!!)

I reckon that a lot of you must have grinding hangovers this morning, judging by the aggressive tone on some of the posts ! I can understand the reaction to the thread title which was 'thick' to say the least, but people like FF have been lambasted for offering pretty innocuous opinions ! Calm down my dears, please calm down !!

I guess I must be one of those as well because that's how I saw it too !! I jumped up and screamed for a pen, as it clearly hit his arm, but would I feel aggrieved if it had been the other way around ? The honest answer can only be 'yes' ! The consensus around me however, was that we had a few lucky breaks and what a pleasant change it made !

So it's true that Rupert commissioned the work then ???

He did have a quiet game but this may have had something to do with the fact that he basically had nobody in front of him ! Lallana does not hog the wing and drifts inside most of the time, giving Harding little support to bomb forward ! Mills/Holmes offer much better balance on that side IMHO !!

Wimp !!!!

I frequently book extra tickets for others and also use it for cup games and friendlies ! Gotcha !!!

Bert Scriven, now there is a name to conjure with ! I guess he's now been replaced by Papa Waigo N'Diaye ?

If you have a season ticket, the cust. no. is directly under your name and is 7 digits ! If no ST then sorry I don't know !

I guess we'd be looking to get shot of a few others out on loan first as AP has already said that the squad is too big ??

Did this for a laugh as I don't really go to away games these days ! Got 23 / 92 which wasn't too bad, but I also discovered that I've not been to a single League 2 ground, which is a record I'd like to maintain !!

Perhaps someone could ask this question on Moday night at the Solent Forum evening ???

Roll on the Saints Web Forum !

So me 'not living in the real world' is not a dig, it's the truth ! Thanks mate, that puts me firmly in my place, I shall consider my comments more carefully in the future rather than break the 'new world order' !!!

Having started this thread, I have now posted 3 times on the subject and (using different words!) have basically stated that if we all unite behind the cause, there is a better chance of improved performance/results ! I contend that unqualified support, positivity and encouragement is preferable to whingeing, sniping and criticism ! In response, Alpine has said that he finds my view 'faintly disturbing' and Delldays reckons that I am 'not in the real world' ! Perhaps I am a little bit mad but I don't really think so ? Best regards, Napoleon Bonaparte.

I can't see why good man management should be considered as 'outside the real world' Sure Pardew knows the price of success and failure, my point is only that with total support he has a better chance of the former than the latter !!
