Michael Rodd?

Who's this Atkins fellow?

Peter Glaze?

Depends if one compares apples to apples or apples to oranges. Some might argue that comparing win ratios in the third tier of English football (with some of the best resources and facilities in the dvision) with win ratios in the first and second tiers of English Football (where the resources and facilities were, comparably, on a less favourable footing) is not comparing like-for-like.

It is possible to say and mean something in one month but do something different in future months without undermining the original statement. People's minds are changed by events and circumstances. Just because Cortese genuinely believed in 'outcome 1' in August doesn't meen that he can't now believe in 'Outcome 2' if things have changed. Not that I'm suggesting he has changed his mind. Just that it's a perfectly reasonable human trait if he has.

What exactly does a "team analyst" do anyway....? Sounds like one of those made-up public sector jobs one sees advertised in the Guardian....

At last, one of the "50 managers" who applied for the Saints job is revealed.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-11398614 ;-)

It is possible to be correct and insulting at the same time. For example: "The sun is hot, you idiot" ;-)

Indeed. I feel a new Carlsberg advert coming on... "If Carlsberg did irony...."

In other news: George Michael complains about the excessive amount of man love going on in Britain's prisons. In the words of my mate Richard Littlejohn: "you couldn't make it up"

It's a rare disorder

Heard from whom?

To be fair to Mr Cortese, he did give plenty of warning about the parking charges at St Mary's.... (sorry, not very helpful I know...)

I assume he'll have been able to keep relatively fit whilst out? i.e. he can still run around and stuff so won't be starting from 'square one' on the back to fitness ladder....?

Please can someone with a medical background (or access to Wikipedia) please tell me how dislocating a shoulder in July renders a player unable to play a game of football until October? Isn't it just a bone coming out of a socket and being put back again? Thanks

13 posts in the last 24 hours as a non-member.....come on, spill the beans...... ;-)

Just to add my two pence worth of salt to the wounds..... The latest "Latest News" article on the Saintsweb homepage is: "Pardew Sacked". I know it's been quiet of late but I'd have thought the arrival of Mr Adkins would have warranted a few words in passing....? :-)

Bugger - being a Tory voter I think I might have just painted myself into a corner....! :-)

To make their wives look good? ;-)

And forgetting the essential yachtspotter.com

But that's exactly how the LibDem advocated 'proportional' politics works, isn't it? i.e. you compromise your staunch beliefs for the better good. The Lib Dems got, what 15-20% of the vote at the general election? It therefore follows that they would have to compromise on c.80% of their policies in joint power. Isn't this how the Lib Dems actually want polictics to work....?

Footnote: I see the unbiased BBC are going into selective quote overload in their news bulletins.... ;-)

Yep, they're still going. 40 year anniversary next year I believe! Their drummer Iain Bayne is manager of a certain Southampton band....

That amusing play on words makes me chuckle every time. I'll never tire of such ingenuity.... ;-) That 'ConDem' one that Ed Balls trots out ad-nauseum is really clever too.
