Just need a translation now....

Did he commit to those votes or cite them as aspirational?

He's offering a choice, not dictating that we pull out. If the 'business community' is serious about maintaining or increasing ties with Europe then they can campaign and convince the public why that should be. If they fail to go that then they've only themselves to blame. #democracy

Might this also be some kind of pre-emptive move to 'destable' the Scottish independence referendum? Haven't thought through in what way but just got a hunch that the line will be: "stick with the UK and you get a vote on EU membership, separate from the UK and you won't". Dunno.

Should make the general election in 2015 a little more interesting. What does Milliband do? Offer a referendum too or tell the electorate he doesn't trust them to decide the country's future in Europe? Smart manoeuvre by Cameron IMO.

@JFBLucas: Great to see we are already getting coverage out here in Spain - here's Mauricio in today's @diarioas... #saintsfc http://t.co/Yx28EC3Q @JFBLucas: Here's another piece in the Spanish press - this one in @Diario_SPORT. #saintsfc http://t.co/cPrCjoUl

Would this be the first ever Saints player with a rude word anagram in their name....?

I've done that. Amazing place. Had a conference gala dinner in the directors' suite. The museum is bigger than St Mary's

This one made me chuckle... @TheSaints1213: Coutinho is 20. Ramirez is 22. Clyne is similar age. Shaw is 17. Investments in youth. Run by a dictator but a good one...

@piercy360: Liverpool scout player, Liverpool like player, Liverpool bid for player, Southampton sign player. Ramirez, Forren and now possibly Coutinho

I said wake me up when we get there....so I'm awake when we win the bugger...

Or....their fans will declare the player isn't as good as they thought he was after all and they're glad to have dodged a bullet....honest guv...

I know we're not 'allowed' to refer back to our darker days on here but is anyone else pinching themselves when seeing articles about little old Saints competing with the likes of Liverpool in the transfer market given where we were a mere 4 years ago? Someone wake me up when we reach the Champions' League...

@JFBLucas: All settled in Barca. Just heard our plans for tomorrow and I cannot wait. We'll have plenty of content to give you so stay tuned! #saintsfc

Nice one

@Chrismich1953: @pn_neil_allen villa out to lowly Bradford Neil !! Do you always back losers ?

If no new signings, and Lallana is fit, I'd go with this.... Boruc Clyne - Yoshida - Forren - Shaw Cork - Schneiderlin Puncheon - Ramirez - Lallana Lambert Subs: K Davis, Fox, Hooiveld, JWP, Chaplow, Rodriguez, Guly, Reeves

Hang on....let me get comfy.....I feel another 17 page thread coming on....

Source?

Good luck in your new job Nigel....

Oops...

Lambert looks like he's about to have a nervous breakdown

Cor Blimey - Bradford hit the bar

Spooky!
