RIP, good player, saw him at the Dell a couple of times.

I've never seen it. What are the odds on me enjoying it?

Any firm plans? We are hoping to do Ventoux on the Sunday and move over in the week to do Annecy and Alpe d'Huez.

tdf?

Thanks for clearing that up! I was half right, sort of. Like most people then I'm v. pleased with these prices, will defo be renewing.

How much were disabled ST's last season, I have 2 STs and one disabled ST. I 'thought' the disabled one was free last year but I might be mistaken? 520 seems a lot for disabled supporters, many of whom will be living on benefits etc for obvious reasons.

I'm pretty sure we signed him for a continuity/coaching/club-captain type role. I love him to bits but I would be seriously concerned if we had to rely on him in any sort of way next year. He just seems to have grown old very very quickly, luckily he didn't have very much to do yesterday but he managed to screw up a lot of fairly straightforward kicking jobs and was very indecisive in possession. I'd be surprised if he makes the PL again, surely the yank will be number two, and Gazza will go out to L1 to get a season's worth of playing time under his belt. I haven't entirely given up on Gazza, he will be remembered for his rabbit-in-the-headlights job at QPR and his complete omnishambles v Norwich, which is a little harsh; he had some decent games before that.

Samuels is a complete and utter bellend who has always had an agenda with us. 'The fans don't sing her name', no but they do sing her dad's name long and proud every game, her name only came into the public domain 'officially' on Saturday. 'inevitable glass ceiling', 'Shaw to Chelsea', NC only here on a stepping stone 'to the next level'. blah, blah, blah.

Decent read. Really struggling to get my head around us signing Victor Wanyama, surely the big boys will be all over him?

How would you break down 'more than 50m'? 20-20-10? 25-15-5-5? 20-15-10-5? Seems an awful lot of money? Can we get 20+ players to Saints with no European football to offer? I said 30+, maybe something like 18-8-5-4 and maybe one or two 'frees' (who aren't really 'free' at all)... ?

I would expect us to spend a fair bit, NC will be expecting to move up at least one level next season (8th-12th), he might even be considering a double jump up to 5th-8th. He will have seen we have a decent enough starting XI, very little depth or cover, and we very are short on the top top quality players, the players that will make a difference in the tight games. He has resolved his differences and appears to have got his 'ambitious' plans signed off, we have now secured the 'new' PL finances (which overall are likely to push transfer fees even higher), I could see us spending £30m-plus quite easily.

That white/gold is the worst football 'kit' I've ever seen.

Any thoughts on the baby Merc? Not sure if it's even out yet, can't think I've see none. The write-ups are a bit mixed, but he's tempted by something a bit different (that'll be the 'same' but different).

Venables and MLT dream team.

Everton?

I'm no car buff, a mate of mine, younger, has just been offered his first company car. He gets to choose from a BMW1, Audi A3, new Mercedes A series, Ford Focus; all diesel, all in fairly basic spec. What's the story? All look pretty decent to me, which is the pick?

I haven't done a Just Giving page (probably why I haven't raised any money yet!). I'm always happy to support other people's pages but I feel a bit weird about putting up a page asking random strangers/friends to give me money to do something that I want to do and will enjoy doing. Figured if I sold my tickets on I would be giving up something myself or making some sort of sacrifice and the 'sponsor' will get something for their money.

I am considering selling mine for Charity. We are doing the London Nightrider bike ride next month with a team from work and I've committed myself to raising a decent wedge of money but have left it all rather late. We are riding for Junior Diabetes research and for one of the members of staff who's son has this condition and she is involved with this charity. I have three tickets together towards the top of block 39. I will consider selling them for serious offers but I won't sell them for silly money - I would rather go to the game and sort the fundraising out later - any use to anybody?

What have the Romans ever done for us? Second goal was as good a goal as I've seen all season.

It's not beyond the realms that all three of next season's promoted sides could go straight back down.

Poyet to Everton?

Anybody on here go, sounded like an exciting game? Gutted for Dover and I would like to have gone but I had a prior engagement in the Sunderland area. Any idea on numbers? Kids in school who went were saying Dover had nearly a thousand down there? Sounds a lot to me but I've heard that from several people, decent effort if it's correct?

Maybe Lallana's recent poor run has pushed them over the edge?

Liebhers want Cortese out - some sort of rift -unlikelyish - but he could/would be replaced Liebhers want the club to be more financially independent - they won't fund silly-money CL push - want to preserve financial viability/stability - possible; NC strops off. Liebhers want out - I thought the Plan A exit strategy was always that NC would take over ownership, via his loadsamoney banking pals? Maybe they are both bored? Good while it lasted, but the reality's dawning that despite booting our best manager for years and recruiting new Euro whizz-kid it will still be a very long and expensive road to take the club on to the next level. SFC, never easy, never dull.
