Golden Balls

I would say RB is a position we need to prioritise. He just isn't good enough! Yes he has an ok cross but like others have said, he does it from too far away. Compare him to Harding on the other side and you can see we need to strengthen RB. People have said Murty is too slow...I'm pretty sure he is quicker than James.

I like this tbf

Jose, Jose Jose, Jose Jose, Jose Jose Fonte To the tune of 'No Limits' which we used to sing for Skacel.

Good point.

Has to be approved and that can't happen until monday now. The only time this doesn't happen is if the day the transfer window closes is a weekend.

If it happens, it wont be announced until Monday

Me and a few mates made it up at Cardiff last year. Got it going at a few away games but forgot/stopped trying. It has however ramained my 'Location' ever since!

My thoughts exactly! And if there is weather like this evening or an accident, the M3 will be a nightmare. No time for a beer and I'll be lucky to make KO!!

Oh no offence taken at all. I was wondering the same thing! I hope The Echo 'reporters' don't hang around too many festivals as 100s of these are floating around each night.

Me and a few others set about 4 or 5 of them off our balcony in Ocean Village at about 12.15am. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/4828431.Mystery_lights_are_chinese_Lanterns/?ref=rss

January will be massive. Obviously with these tough fixtures and with the transfer window. Who will we bring in? Who will move on? It looks like January will shape how this season goes...

Was quiet today. First time for a very long time I recall an away following out singing us. Still, 3-1, I'm happy enough with that!

I know it's late notice but I'm a tad tipsy in Leeds and have no idea where a good away fans pub will be. Wanna watch pompey game with fellow Saints.. Anyone know? Happy birthday to me!

So many times I like to think back to when I need reminding why I love Saints.... THAT Derby goal in the play offs!! - All I remember is the ball falling to his feet and I knew it was a goal. Got bundled forward and was celebrating right where he slid! Never have I ever ever hugged so many people, let alone strangers! The fact we lost on pens does not even put the slightest downer on that memory!! Camera V Norwich - I remember turning to my old man and saying 'I'd do anything for a goal right now' and then suddenly the whole ground rose to its feet and roared. 10 seconds later we scored and to this day, I have never heard a bigger cheer! I feel I will look back at last night a few times in the future Everton last game of the season in 1999. Pahars saves us to complete the Great Escape! I remember walking to the ground and as I was crossing Archers Road I nearly got knocked over as I was literally praying for us to win and didn’t look when I crossed. Then at the end of the game 'What a beautiful day' by The Levellers came on and everyone was singing along. Obviously the last league game at The Dell One of the biggest memories however though is being 3-0 down to the mighty Liverpool with 17 mins to play. We all know the rest...once we got one back, I knew, (along with the rest of The Dell) we were going to get something from the game. That last 17 minutes The Dell really did act as the 12th, 13th and even 14th man. From the Archers we were literally pulling the ball into the net and when little Marian popped up and sent The Dell mental....5-6 mins of mad celebration followed. To me, that epitomised what The Dell was about!

I was in the Northam so didn't really see it. Through the legs...nice

Yes

Exactly! If people think we're skint, they wont over charge us for players!

Not 'need'. But I guarantee that if we get back to the prem, the demand will be that high. Especially for the bigger games. Are you implying we do not have 45k fans that would be willing to all go to a game?

YEEEEEAH! F*** it! I'm not sending anyone else I know one, but Markus is getting one!!

If we were in the top 6 and looking like promotion, we would get around 28k a week. Top 2 and we'd sell out. Like someone said, I think we have a hardcore group of 15k (of which I consider myself to be) who will go no matter what. We have another 20k who will go when they can (money, work and location etc being the deciding factor) and about 10k who will only go if we're in the prem.

Went for Jurys Inn. Travelodge only slept 2 per room where as Jurys sleeps 3 so works out quite a bit cheaper! Thanks for your help guys and girls

Managed to get tickets for the Leeds game today, and as is the case with most people, we're staying up there to make a weekend of it. Does anyone know of anywhere cheap to stay that is relitively close to the ground or city centre? Theres 6 of us on a tight budget. Etap is fully booked.... Cheers

I'm buying 8 tomorrow morning

Where are the ones in Soton?

Yep! That was annoying. Was in Fitness First. Finally got on the machine I wanted and all the lights went out. To make things worse, the lockers there are electronic and all jammed shut leaving us all stood in the dark for an hour. Could have been worse. Someone got stuck in the lift!!
