I usually agree with a lot of your posts Wes, but a lot of the things Rupert Lowe wanted in this "complex" was facilities for fans to drink at. At the moment, I can think of one pub in Stoneham, which wouldnt be anywhere near enough to accomodate all the fans, plus travel to Stoneham would have had to be massively revised. As it is, we have a stadium that was very much 2nd choice but only 2nd choice if we could have got Stoneham with all the trimmings, which we didnt get. We now have a stadium within close proximity to our city centre which made a lot more sense logistically.

Without wanting in anyway to appear ITK, I was chatting with a client of mine last week who is very close friends with Graeme Souness (I found out as we were actually talking about Newcastle United and I said it's all gone wrong with them since they sacked Bobby Robson and replaced him with Souness). Anyway, when I found out I asked if he knew if there was any legs in rumours linking him with a takeover of Southampton. He said he didnt know about that but he is actually in the process of moving back to Hampshire. I'm aware he owns a wine company in Southampton as his business partner is my mates next door neighbour in Hiltingbury. Apparently he also owns a steel company down here as well which my client reckoned was behind the reason for moving down. DIdnt think of mentioning at the time but might tie in with this rumour if so.

lol. Post of the day without a doubt. Very good.

I'm not one to grumble as the lineup does look strong but I also recommended my mates band The Reason who have headlined at venues up and down the country including the Cavern Club in Liverpool and havent heard anything about them being on the bill and I reckon they are better than the majority of bands already on the bill.

I'd love to see MLT with these new-fangled all-singing, all-dancing balls. I'd go for MLT every time just because of his quirkiness. Looking at him, he should never have been a professional football but was blessed with sublime natural skill. When looking at Ronaldo, he is a proper athlete and looks like he belongs on a football field... which is boring.

SUggestion for a celebration tonight to any lucky goalscorers... run the full length of one of the empty stands cupping your ear or putting your finer to your lips to shush to chairs!

Which is exactly why American sports are boooooooooooooooring.... ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

Are you reading Paul Allen?!?!?!

Soy Sauce, Sherry, Garlic, Honey, little bit of orange juice. You've got yourself a teriyaki marinade.

My Uncle Scott used to play drums or Perfect Alibi. They are a very good band.

Amy was my number 1...

What about Longview? I used to go to Thornden with the lead singers sister Anna, whom I believe is going out with Danny McNamara from Embrace. Not sure if they still do but theres a couple of bands with local links.

Am I right in thinking, if Eastleigh get past Yeading, we are in the final which is played at Wembley?

I dont know about you but I would happily do it!

I think he will stay. He loves the area and doesnt want to leave. Hopefully there will be news breaking soon about the future of the club which means his future will be resolved also.

We have turned into a club that has a lot of fans with chips on their shoulder and a big-club delusion complex. As a result, when things dont go our way, we have a large proportion of knuckle draggers that like to start trouble with the away fans. Which is funny because by and large, away from home we are a well behaved club generally and in my experience only kick off when provoked.

Shearer will commit with Newcastle whether they stay up or go down in my opinion. If this is to be a sign of the new owners ambition though, I am in favour of it.

Sadly prior commitments have stopped me from being able to attend today. If anyone can PM me a radio link that would be very much appreciated.

Kolo Toure? Thats the last thing our defence needs...

£100m in debt and will eventually get relegated. The proverbial will hit the fan with them at some time or another and they will be in a much, much worse predicament than us.

Great post. Actually a witty suggestion of a chant that I could see fans joining in with.

There is a very good local band called The Reason. Pretty sure they are all Southampton fans and would love to take part. Check them out at http://www.myspace.com/thereasonlive

What are you all expecting? All interested serious parties to come out and show their hand? Why on earth would they do that? It would be likely to affect the price in which they could acquire the club for considerably. Things will be happening at the moment, of that I am sure. No news is most definately good news at the moment.

Having just looked at the league table you are indeed correct. To be fair despite our rather lacklustre form this season I've been fairly ignorant of whats been happening in League One. Both good players though. Sad times that staying with Peterborough is seen as a wiser career move than signing with the once mighty Saints.
