A very promising early career stymied by injury, in the ultimate analysis.

Do you think these refugees from Pompey will have the usual fervent zeal of the convert?

The Cortese song is one that is so bad it is actually quite good, so long as it is sung with a knowing irony.

I have been tipped-off that Cortese has specially commissioned Beretta to co-design our kit, with Adidas responsible for production. http://www.beretta.com/Apparel/Spring-Summer-2013/index.aspx?m=82&idc=414

It is now clear that last summer's lethargy in the transfer market was because NC knew NA was temporary and didn't want to buy a load of NA's targets, rather wanted to wait for 1) MP and 2) secure Premier League status. Expect some serious outlay on serious players this summer.

A culture of low horizons, no ambition and low expectations has always pervaded Comprehensive schools.

Lady Gaga

Yep, rug out from under feet.

Hoddle spotted at Totton Asda buying petrol.

Glen Hoddle, with Eileen Drewery as his right hand woman.

Good summary.

Pass me that sick-bag will you please, quickly. Akin to a bunch of school kids chanting the headmaster's praise. No, no, no.

Signed

It would make sense to sell the club now for the Trust.

Designer clobber and glowering, scowling countenances are in order.

Paternity leave eh?

Now we are safe we can revel in speculation about the very exciting signings Cortese and Pochettino are going to make in the summer.

We will be champions by early March.

Newcastle and Norwich winning.

Jason Puncheon - he scores when he wants

Generally make the game really theatrical and totally fixed like WWF Wrestling. Crowd consisting of solely blue rinsed menopausal women and male homosexuals. Cheerleaders, sin bins, more stop/starts than free play, Beyonce miming to some shyte of hers at half-time, theres a lot of massive "improvements" to come!

Superb post.

Do these dodgy airlines service the planes to proper schedules and standards, or just stamp the service book every 6 months? I might have had some sympathy if those Indian pilots had taken a hostess or 2 into the toilets with them....

If he stays he'll be great the season after the season after the next season.

9 - is that a record?
