Seems like a rational explanations to why Lambert appears to be in a 'different place' mentally this year. Seems like Lambert was 'left back' by Cortese then...?

No idea to be honest. Just dusting off my Columbo-esque 2+2=5 detective skills from 'the takeover years'... I think it fits though...

At least Labour supporters will be happy to see one of the regular tactics of the Blair/Brown years has rubbed off on Cameron... What were the other "large amount" of bad news items the Tories buried yesterday?

Will be interesting to see if 'leftback' keeps posting team news after today...

His level of accuracy suggests he's getting his information directly from the 'inner circle' at the club. Worst case is that there is a disgruntled player at the club leaking this information. If it's not a player (or coaching/medical staff) who else can it be? It must be someone who hears team news directly from Nigel Adkins, surely? Who else does Adkins reveal team news to in advance other than this close knit group of people?

Good post. The answer to your question is: irrational class envy. It's what separates the human race from the rest of the animal kingdom.

That's very nobel of you to offer to leave the country Sir. We do need millions of volunteers to do this to make enough space for all the tourism this will generate. Again, thank you.

In the opinionated world we live in I see this as a 'win win'. The republicans are happy because it gives them something to whine about. And the non-republicans are happy because it annoys the republicans. So, republicans, carry on moaning about it to maintain the happy equilibrium. (just don't moan about it in a lemming kinda way...) ;-)

That's because those of us who see this as good news have only come to that view in a sheeplike fashion rather than through making our own minds up. BTF says so, ergo it must be true... ;-)

I've just heard they are going to rename the Monday after Christmas Day from Boxing Day to Wills and Kate Day. Another nail in coffin for the dumb downers.

"Southampton are known to be preparing a big wheel and deal revolving door in January" Known by whom?

Exhibit A ;-)

Sorry, the "fact" was tongue-in-cheek in anticipation of a lot of people inevitably stating as fact that it will cost a shed load of money. There's far more better "rent a quote" posters on here than me who can no doubt prove my hunch right or wrong one way or t'other....

Almost as tired as those who say the opposite....

This will bring in far more money to the country than it costs. Fact.

Congratulations to the happy couple. Cue the inevitable bitter vitirol.....
