Except for the extra white bits under the arm...

I'd rather Snickers went back to being called Marathon bars but it doesn't stop me eating Snickers. (Said Trousers plucking a potentially poor analogy from the air)

Oh, and one of my Dutch friends just posted.... "OMG! Aap means 'monkey' in Dutch"....

I just showed it to a 'friend' on Facebook and his first comment was: "Nah, that can't be right, Saints would never get rid of their stripes"... at which point I showed him a picture of last season's kit. Obviously word doesn't travel as fast as we thought it did...

Is it me or are there two different shades of gold?

@SouthamptonFC: The wait is almost over! Our 2013/14 home and away kits produced by @adidasUK will be revealed right here at 9am tomorrow morning. #saintsfc

Who knows, but it's often convenient to quote the ONS when it suits.... (April 2012)

Maybe they could do their training during the "holidays" rather than during term time too? Inset days: yet another rubbish Tory idea.

That's c.80% of smart phone users ruled out then....

Sky News Newsdesk ‏@SkyNewsBreak1m Office for National Statistics: Revised figures show UK double-dip recession at the end of 2011 & beginning of 2012 never actually happened Tory Treasury ‏@ToryTreasury2m New ONS figures show that the recession in 2009 was even deeper than thought + ONS say economy did not go back into recession in 2012

So, the agents have lied to the media in that case as they cited Wanyama's terms as one of the reasons for the stalemate. Cheers for posting the insights.

Cheers Alps. Useful info.

I thought investing in infrastructure projects was a good thing?

For some people it is, for others it isn't.

2-1 Brazil 4 mins to go

1-1 Dreadful defending from Brazil

Uruguay 1 down at half time. Assume we'll see Gaston come on fairly early in 2nd half if score remains the same.

I disagree with you there, sir. It's totally believable. This is Pompey we're talking about here.

That would be one way of increasing inflation and the cost of living...............

He did. Don't tell me he missed you out?

Mike Onslow ‏@MikeOnslow @JimmyZincke Massive fail from the powers that be. A promising season hits its first hitch before a ball is even kicked. Not good enough! Jimmy Zincke ‏@JimmyZincke How do I break to my 5 year old nephew that he won't be getting his new pompey kit tomorrow after being promised? VERY ****ED OFF!! #pompey Jimmy Zincke ‏@JimmyZincke 1st they showed the wrong shirt online, now we won't even get it on the date we were told!

I'm surprised Pompey haven't thought about doing this before now... http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/pay-play-20k-guarantees-spot-4714096

I've been thinking along similar lines.... Maybe Cortese had lined up Genii/Lotus to buy out the club from the Liebherrs, when he first suspected the Liebherrs weren't prepared to inject further funds to match his desire to push the club to the next level. So, when the Liebherrs did a u-turn following Cortese's reported ultimatum (if indeed that's what they did) Genii/Lotus weren't willing to sign up for a compromise sponsorship deal. Who knows. Edit: pingwing's theory sounds much more likely than my random out loud thoughts!
