SW5 SAINT

Bit of a come down for Norman Piper, to selling burgers

Don't forget Osvaldo

I think people are confusing squaddies with booties (marines)

I heard a comment at the weekend made by the Port of Southampton Ambassador, that on the back of their raised profile through owning Southampton. The Liebherrs have made an additional £400m worth of business world wide, since the takeover.

Is he still playing?

I'd trade an FA Cup win for a season or three in the Championship……...

Lolz, I was sure I could remember Fleetwood beating poopey very recently.

I thought Fleetwood were in League 2, which is not non league.

Lol….:-)

Sadly, what all this does show is how very predictable the Premiership has become. Nowadays from top to bottom……….

No, it will be Aldershot and Eastleigh, as Salisbury will be a league above them next season……...

Anybody else hear Paul Merson waxing lyrical over Southampton, and stating that if Lallanna played for anybody else the pundits would be waxing lyrical over him?

He now becomes the biggest transfer fee received by Southampton…….

Absolutely not, we are comfortably mid table, playing great football, we have a great squad of players, brilliant manager, are apparently well run. We are also in the last 16 of the FA Cup, with a winable away tie. What have Sunderland to match that, apart from Poyet and a cup final, where they are likely to be humiliated……..

This is nothing new for wham, they always seem to try to obtain players, which would otherwise be beyond their means on loans. Doing it for years, remember Tevez and Macherano. They are as bad as poopey.

And France also, for some reason or other……...

Sadly, how true that is. I looked around Southampton city centre last week for the first time in about 10 years, I couldn't believe what I saw, and how depressing. All that bit around the Bargate and Jongleurs boarded up, Poundland where C&A used to be, those department stores at the top end of the street gone. I could go on. Reminded me that living in London we have been immune to the worst of the financial crisis…………...

Was that a Liebherr crane?

Saints become the richest club in world, just as they are embarking on their great adventure in the Skrill Conference……….

Lolz…...

I got a real sense of deja vu reading that. Reminds me of the Rupert Lowe era, only difference Nicola Cortese had the Liebherrs as rich backers. I seem to remember Lowe saying once he could be "transferred" to another EPL club. We so seem at Southampton to specialise in the cult of the CEO.

Let's they make it an 18th birthday present……….

Lolz…..

Be looking for a new manager as well by the end of the week…………….

Rupert Lowe!!!!!!
