Yes, yes now I see, the swimming pool does fit onto the roof of the new Fratton Tesco's, now was it 240 flats or 340?

Good, Now turn on spell checker. Typed in his best MLG voice

No this cannot be. We don't have any ambition. Nobody wants to play for our Manager, And our Chairman's such a cn\/nt that nobody will do business with him.

It's more interesting to see whether you sign players or you sign loans. Hell, even a Goldfish could work out you have to do something with the squad (maybe why your message boards are questioning the kids & the bench issue). What happens in the next 19 days will show everyone what the new owners really have in store for you. Their pronouncements to date haven't exactly been deafening. My thoughts on your start. Only a total idiot would not at least allow one or two of the kids to sit on the bench to see what happens during a game even IF they had no intention of bringing them onto the pitch. It's called learning. (doh silly me - poopey & learning what was I thinking) 32 quid a ticket - indicates what the owners may be after So now we wait for the Intent. Loans again or actually start to build a squad. Jury's out ATM, I know a couple of my skate mates are almost as twitchy as old 'arry about things. Guess it's back to tick tock. Patience again

There was. Something like just about 50% more than you managed at SMS. Now then, where are all these millions going to get spent to improve the Arena & the Squad? Or are you waiting for the loans again. Still, easy for Snotrill to foster team spirit when they can all sit together around the lunch table at the training ground.

We know for a fact he was at the Charlton Away game last season. Was a lengthy thread about it as he was on a train with many of our fans out to the game from London. He was a "guest" of their Chairman but he told the lads (and repeated on here) that his son was a big fan and wanted to go.

Oi. Some people can do both - I used to score loads of goals from right midfield for The Coote Arms back in the day..

Damn you Kraken - I was gonna go look for this in the morning

Actually I think it was he is a cn\/t, but he is our cn\/t. Should have copyrighted that along with the statement "being whelmed" at NA's appointment Still we could always have Hone/Dullieu/Hoos back, or even Leon & his Churchillian speeches.

Ah ha.... So perhaps a p/ex. They get Mills & Seaborne we get Maynard. Wonder if they would like Puncheon as well..... They'd owe us about 75 quid after all that

Agree with Alps on this. And IF (or is it when) we sign that CB & Striker, gonna have some fun reading those "no ambition threads" from earlier in the summer.

Good signing, clearly capable of playing at the next level and young(ish) seems to be a template there I like Harding & I think Dickson is a decent player but clearly Fox is better than that and will imprive the team. Left side now looked very strong "Squad Wise" as cover for the FB & Lallana, now I think we have a strong first choice. Expect Fish to move on and maybe one of Harding Holmes & Dickson

No chance. He's far too happy with Adam Scott at the moment and working on his upcoming book release - Tiger, my part in his sexploits.

Henry Winter wrote an amusing piece in the Telegraph at the weekend. He went to the Forest game - had to queue for 30 mins to buy a ticket and then got himself a manky pie.

Really worried about England & how this is all panning out. Just watched a bunch of English lads mug 11 Indians in Brimingham. How could 25.000 people just sit there and cheer them on and do nothing to try and save those poor defenceless victims?

In answer to the thread title yup, I expect he is. After all, his lad is now a Saints fan and Rupe's took him to the Charlton match last year. Whatever else you may think of him, he has brought a new fan into our midst & as the train wreck of events has now led us into this happy place of 7 goals in 2 games and everyone feeling good about being on the bus, he should be able to bring his lad to watch us at SMS. It's done, he's gone. We've learnt. Get over it

Think the Olympic medals replaced with Teasmaids to save money is funnier tho.

Waterstones made a press release. Perhaps they should loot one of our bookshops. Maybe they would learn something.

Mrs D_P - wow it's really great watching the lads at the moment. Sums it up nicely. Oh & Saints Player peeps - sort out your main camera lighting setting - horrid yellow for much of the game. RTFM it's quite easy to switch the settings guys

Nah was another apologist line I picked up in the press yesterday. It was a Leftie who was giving excuses and got pinged back that if that was the case then it was THEIR fault because of Blair's Immigration policies.. (hence the doh & facepalm) It was somewhere between reading a very clever dissection (ie attack) on Harriet Harman in the Telegraph and it was followed a few moments later by seeing some "Senior Police" chap (with the scrambled eggs on his hat) commenting to Sky in a really p1ssed off tone that "People should shut up making stupid comments and stop making it into a Political Issue". Sky are having a debate on it at 8pm tonight. Think I'll make sure I watch a cookery programme it will just annoy the hell out of me.

IF Cameron has the balls to back up his rhethoric of the past few days, then Mr Chapman should be seeking new employment tomorrow morning

You know what? Many on here deride Dune for his often right angled views, but reading many blogs and articles today, and seeing the sudden change in attitude and approach from the Police (stand-offishness to whacking the feckers), on this he is not far wrong. In some ways it is ironic that the policies of Blair on Immigration may well have backfired. Why? Because the recent "wave" of Immigration has been predominatly White Eastern European. They are brought up in an environment that expects hard work (in many cases) and has strong family values. A great many of them have filled low paid jobs, often at the bottom of the ladder, but many of them actually are well educated, or well skilled and many want to work hard and better themselves. So, the "Inner City" Racial Stereotypes in their hoodies & with their Gangsta "Want it All & I want it Now" culture suddenly find - bingo - jobs going to hard working but white Immigrants. Somehow, the Irony of the situation on the woolly luvvies has whooshed them by. Their darlings allowed 2 million new immigrants into the UK over their term and the "underpriviliged" classes find they can't get work. Sort of a Doh moment.

Lol, was one of my trips back and remember it well. A friend had got me into a box. The booze was flowing, the Chicken Kiev was decent (if not award winning) and the football and the motivation was simply dire. Luckily the telly was on in the box and towards the end of the game everyone was watching it. So yes, this feeling we now have - bloody wonderful. Make the most of it, life comes around & goes around

Paul Simon Clegg et al ROFL factor 7.5 out of 10 Managed a few flat bits, lots of stereo-typical redneck & Men in Black jokes, managed some (you could see it coming) homage to Close Encounters but for the Stephen Spielberg Advisor moment alone it rates an overall 8/10 And will keep it cranked up on the DVD player as it really is gonna keep getting watched. (oh but really NOT for younger kids - a lot of the comedy is the "Conversion" of the Bible Basher into the Pot smoking Swearing Fornicating Love interest and really dopey use of wrongly timed obscentities).
