  1. Cheers - as I said it was all verbally passed to me. I've seen pictures of Hoglands park when it was used for the American army before D Day but that would have been a couple of years later.
  2. Got my first pair of Adidas kick in there.
  3. If you read some of the feedback on the link I think it mentions "mines" and that they have not been included. Not sure if this is just local legend but I can remember talk of an Air raid shelter in Hoglands park getting a direct hit and all they did was treat it as a mass grave and bulldozed it over - not seen anything anywhere about that and I'm pretty sure theres no plaque or statue in the park.
  4. Showing my age but I can remember when it was Edwin Jones - was brought up not 100 yards from there. As to the night club - it was also called Jokers at one time or other.
  5. The snooker hall was above and to the left - not sure if its still there but remember watching a couple of Saints games that were beamed in from somewhere like Sweden that got them when the UK didn't. Forgot about Argos - there's been quite a few in the footprint. There's a store around the back as well that covers the old rear entrance (ooeerr) of Owen & Owens.
  6. I think there was a Dept store called Owen & Owen from memory - It didn't quite reach the Burger King corner, but it covered where the snooker hall and what was TK Maxx (previousky Gattis pub). There was a plaque in Owen Owen on the very top floor that commemorated the people that lost there lives when it was bombed (circa 1940) as some people back in those days lived in accomodation on the top floor. This is a good map of where all the bombs drop circa Nov/Dec 1940 http://blog.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/2010/11/mapping-the-southampton-blitz-70-years-on/
  7. Are they really?? Which is the most democratic would you say?
  8. Is that protestant or catholic?
  9. So its the BDL now is it?
  10. So its militant Islam is it? How do you know which muslim is militant and which muslim is not? It doesn't appear to me that the EDL get into any kind of dialogue with any muslims well apart from demonstrating outside of Mosques.
  11. If I ballsed up like that where I work I'd be sacked.
  12. I predict - big fine & community service
  13. Agreed - lots of positives from last night and we will need to dig deep on a few occassions in the next few months - and that will be starting on Sat.
  14. We just are not dealing with the 3 up front - they are running riot.
  15. I hope Nige gives em the hairdryer after that 1st half.
  16. is oxo playing
  17. How the feck did Barnard miss.
  18. Is Morgan playing?
  19. We need to get our foot on the ball and start passing.
  20. C'mon you Saints!! Lets get the show back on the road
  21. So you'll be happy for them to go to the wall will you? You sound a little bitter about them beating us? and I thought you were one of the more reasonable posters on here.
