Might have something to do with 'his' user id now being used by a different person. HTH

Yes. HTH

****?

True...my go.... Hot news....Fulthorpe seen at Reading branch of Barclays this morning putting money where mouth is.

Example(s)?

The 'Ticket Office' TSW user id was logged in at 11:09 this morning so they'll no doubt have seen this and be on the case.

Ah. OK. Cheers

WH Ireland investor quits Carphone after breaching FSA rules David Ross, one of a consortium of new investors at Manchester-based stockbroking firm WH Ireland, today quit the board of the Carphone Warehouse, which he co-founded. His departure was prompted by the admission that he failed to declare the use of 136.4m of the company’s shares as collateral for personal loans. Ross used the shares in this way over the past two years but only told the company yesterday, despite Financial Services Authority rules which say such moves must be declared. He said he was up to date with payments on the loans and added that he had no intention of selling his 20 per cent stake in Carphone. Despite this, the shares slid 5 per cent today. Ross set up the company with old school friend Charles Dunstone, Carphone’s chief executive. Dunstone said his failure to declare was “an oversight” and described his resignation from the board as “a sad occasion”. Ross is one of a group of investors, including former Conservative Party treasurer Lord Marland and JJB Sports founder David Whelan, who have built up a 27 per cent stake in WH Ireland after first acquiring shares in May. http://www.crainsmanchesterbusiness.co.uk/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20081208/FREE/812089965/-1/breaking How far down the domino trail is SLH?

Another 'SFC' would be born out of the ashes and you'd be able to support them from the grass roots upwards. It would still be the same club in spirit - why desert 'Southampton Football Club' if/when it's re-born?

Indeed. They did the same with Skacel for the first couple of months of the season.....one or two passing mentions about him buried within other articles....not a dickie bird as to why he was being left out (whilst other 'unavailable' players were being written about)....and then...BANG...in the squad every match thereafter, his previous absence seemingly being swept under the carpet. It does indeed give the impression that they are starting to be as incommunicado with Euell as they were with Skacel.... Just an observation. That's all

The FA are never wrong. Fact.

The same reason why people 'bother' to create new threads about it.

I'm thinking of parking on your driveway for the next home game. How much do you charge for letting me out after the game?

To be fair, I did caveat my original post with (paraphrase) "This could be Trousers being a tw*t"

Would you want to serve Master Bates without a barrier between you?

Can't we terminate 'unsatisfactory' loan arrangements early?

10th IMHO of course

Might be me reading too much into a quote (for once)....but when Poortvliet says: "We are very satisfied with many of our loan players and we hope that they will stay here," isn't he implying that he's not satisfied with all of them? I wonder which ones he's not "very satisfied" with? http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/?page_id=11023

Did any of the sales guys give you a slap for asking to see their Trousers?

"Goodbye. It's been nice knowing you" ?

Apologies....the bit about working in the Skoda garage was a lie. Just me trying to be highly amusing in trying to convince Mr Bates that I was closer to SMS than he was....I need to dig out that tongue-in-cheek smiley me thinks!

Seems a bit cheap to me (not taking into account the economic down turn - was it £300k or thereabouts in previous years when the economy was 'ok' ?)

He didn't say he wasn't.....you can have a blue coat and sticky out ears in addition to jiggly breasts.....
