  1. When I worked in Belgium one of my colleagues always referred to ' London Arsenal' which got on my t*ts ! I told him it was wrong but he was a bit like Trigger and could only see Rodney as Dave !!
  2. I always like it when DM says " I'm going to say this, just for the listeners ! " As a radio commentator I've always wondered who else it might be for
  3. I emailed the club about this and asked for a definitive, transparent response rather than a bland statement ! I received a reply and guess what - it was a bland statement !! Basically they are saying "we are working hard with 3rd parties to resolve the issue but we have no idea when they will be delivered' ! It appears that only the nameless 3rd party is to blame ! Shambles....
  4. We’re gonna win the league You heard it here first ! Time for a cheeky bet.......
  5. I'm only guessing but the shirts could have been made, then the order rejected on quality grounds (perhaps the sponsors logo was peeling off ?) after that they appeared on the market as 'seconds' ! UA would have instructed the manufacturer to destroy them but it's not uncommon for these things to reappear on the black market ! Just a theory but I can't really picture another realistic scenario !
  6. Seriously, this is worse than embarrassing I’ve got grandchildren in Belgium and South Africa with personal deadlines to meet to get them kitted out but still no information forthcoming on delivery ! I said before that I know how this business works and frankly heads should roll as it is completely inexcusable IMHO !
  7. I was in the West Quay shop a couple of days ago and they had no idea when it was due ! At the margins they make, replaced, priority production and airfreight should be mandatory ! Frankly UA should be dumped after this fiasco, I know the whole process and delays such as this are simply inexcusable !
  8. Krueger has gone now, we're allowed to call it penalty SPOT these days :)
  9. I watched it last night and it answers most of the questions asked on here ! It's called 'Saint and Sinner' !
  10. Seriously, there are only 3 letters in his name so surely you can get it right

    Che Adams

    The 'reported' fee is understood to be £8mil ! a) This may not be right ! b) It may just be the upfront payment with many add-ons ! c) Could easily be a negotiating tactic ! Best to wait and see !
  12. A piece of advice to those who are concerned about cyclists, road hogs and dodgy 'old biddy' drivers : "DO NOT COME TO THE ISLE OF WIGHT" - it will not be good for your health ! Ps. exclude 'middle lane hoggers' cos we've not got no motorways :)
  13. Good luck Ross, I wish you well !
  14. These key issues must be addressed IMO ! a) Clearout the deadwood ! b) Change the mentality (-29 points from winning positions) ! c) Improve home form ! If we can achieve at least 2 of these 3, we should be comfortable in mid table !
  15. On my way back from a golf competition in Surrey last night, I listened to the first half on the radio ! Apart from all the sycophantic nonsense about the best fans etc.. there were a couple of beauties " Scotland's goalkeeper " instead of " a Scottish goalkeeper " (he has spent most of his career at Harrogate Railway!) and " Full house at Fratton " unlike the half empty Stadium of Light " (reality - 18k v 26k) ! I laughed all the way down the M3 :) Ps. I won the golf, so great day all round !!
  16. Most of the time it's not actually the thrower who is the problem, it's the lack of movement needed to receive it ! Something else to work on for next season
  17. The outbox will be the most difficult to complete : Hoedt, Carillo, Boufal (maybe), Reed, Clasie, Cedric, Gallagher, Forster, Stevens and Austin all need to go ! If that can be achieved and it won't be easy, then we need 4 or 5 signings plus bring on some youngsters ! Gonna be a busy summer for Ralph and his team, good luck guys !!
  18. You’ve got a point, I shouldn’t rise to the bait, he gets up my nose and sometimes I can’t resist !!
  19. As per every home game this season, I was sat in the Kingsland with ‘real fans’ who have opinions (sometimes positive, sometimes negative but always supportive) ! Trolls like you do the club a disservice and do not share the passion and dedication of those who truly care ! Take a look in the mirror some day and ask yourself if you really are a Saints fan because many posters on here suspect that you are not !! Ps. Hopefully you had a cheeky bet on a 1-1 draw today !
  20. They have also spent the best part of a billion pounds since the Arabs took over ! Not exactly a ‘like for like’ comparison, eh ??
  21. Gunn is a quality young keeper ! One howler doesn’t change this and he’ll learn from it ! McCarthy is a good backup to him and the ‘statue’ needs to be moved on (if anyone will take him !! We have many pressing problems in the squad which need to be addressed but this is not one of them ! All IMHO, of course!!
  22. I wondered why there was so much red and white in the Pompey end ! Seems there were swathes of empty seats ☺️! Dodgy red card helped them big time !!
  23. I would not be surprised if he is a 'makeweight' in the deal to buy Mitrovic from Fulham !
  24. As I said, he is looking at the ‘bigger picture’ and if a single league loss (with nothing at stake) helps him formulate a better plan for next season then we could easily reap further rewards ! You can only see so much in training, matchdays are more relevant ! Sure, I have sympathy with our travelling support but equally I can understand why RH did what he did !!
