Russell Brand rages at Rupert Murdoch and The Sun
eurosaint replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Lounge
'Seems' is the key word here ! Even the Mirror's traditional vitriol against Lady T has had to be tempered by the fact that they don't actually know if this happened ! Maybe they should check out the financial arrangements of Blair, Mandelson etc.. The guys they supported for so long ! -
I'm afraid that our enforced substitutions unsettled and weakened us whereas theirs gave them a new impetus (that's what you get with a big expensive squad!) No disaster having plummeted to seventh ( just above Man U !) We are still doing well, it's only the expectations that have changed !!

Comment from a Skate on the News comments site : "I dont think at 60 odd and at his stage of his career needs to be managing a League 2 club however big the fanbase and support. However Warnock loves Portsmouth fans so you never know" I guess this would be the same Neil Warnock who recently managed Leeds Utd, having an average crowd of approximately double that of the plucky phew ??

I pray that this happens, I've missed his classic after match, comedy interviews so much
-
You're too polite Minty, he's talking out of his arse (as ever) ! The two goals were clearly individual errors and absolutely nothing to do with the make up of the back five !!
-
Very disappointed that they did not discuss the penalty decision, surely Hansen as a former defender should have commented that shirt pulling ( whilst wrong) should be consistently judged ! Ie. all or nothing ! It happens a dozen times each match but is seldom penalised ! Personally I would outlaw it completely and in this case feel that the BBC should at least have highlighted it !

Best Places to Live in Britain - Southampton No 4
eurosaint replied to spyinthesky's topic in The Lounge
If Bracknell is rated number 1 then this report is a load of b.ollocks !!!! -
Word is that they found an old recreation ground and use jumpers for goalposts ! All is hunky dory now
-
This might well be a naive question but "is it legal to show a live stream in a public place" ?? By the sounds of it they used Wiziwig, Frontrow or similar so I'm not sure that is kosher ! Would be surprised of course if the Skates (knowingly?) broke the law !!
-
Oops, 4-0 and Dons missed a pen as well !
-
I presume that this is what Factless will describe as a 'constructive walk out' ! A bit like their selective booing, eh ?
-
For some reason this reminds me of the old story of an inmate at the lunatic asylum who raped a cleaning lady before escaping and going on the run ! The newspaper headline the following day was : "Nut screws washer and bolts"
-
I thought that the ref and his assistants were about the best we've seen this season ! Sure, you can dispute the odd offside etc. but compared to some of the dross that we have been subjected to, I think that they did very well !
-
Those valuations are a joke ! Fox is worth £400k more than JWP ? Start again !
-
Hey Nic, Just heard on the radio that the Skates have been knocked out of the cup !! Lol.
-
The substitution was tactically perfect as Wanyama's role of protecting the back four and breaking up play was not required, due to Hull sitting pretty deep ! Davis brought more forward momentum and energy so the shape became more effective ! All IMHO of course !

A very thought provoking article by a war veteran
eurosaint replied to bridge too far's topic in The Lounge
I guess that is why the old lad wrote the article, he perceives that social issues are somehow linked to remembrance for the dead, personally I don't, but each of us has the right to say, do and believe what we want, thankfully we still live in a democratic country ! -

The question that no-one has yet answered is "how do we know that people are wearing the poppy for reasons that are not genuine" ?? -

eurosaint replied to bridge too far's topic in The Lounge
I'm not sure how you come to that conclusion, the poppy has been worn since 1920 and unless someone actually tells you that they are wearing it in support of (ie.) the Iraq war then how do you know ?? Ps. not being critical, just wonder why some people interpret the usage in this way ! -

I have worn a poppy every year since adulhood and do it in memory of those fallen in all conflicts on behalf of my country ! I can see no reason to politicise the practise and do not in any way relate it to 'monolithic corporate institutions' or any other issue either ! The old guy is entitled to his opinion and take action as he sees fit, but IMHO the vast majority of British citizens wear the poppy with pride and do not consider that it is in any way linked to the rights or wrongs of society today ! -
Team made up mainly with the non-regulars but with a very strong bench is called for IMO ! Sunderland have to concentrate on the league more than us as they are in the relegation mix so I expect them to make many changes ! If we keep it tight for an hour and then go for the jugular we should have enough to win it ! COYS.

Cortese is not arrogant ! Pochettino is not arrogant ! SFC is not arrogant ! I am not arrogant ! Saints fans are not arrogant ! Just because a few WUM's on this web forum are thick and maybe arrogant as well doesn't tar us all with the same brush ! Celebrate the good times ! COYS !

Stonewall pen against Shawcross late on.. Unlucky not to win this as we were clearly the better quality team even in difficult conditions ! A win v Hull next week and we are really in the top 8 mix ! COYS
