Give it to Ron

I missed that but having been through senior school with him had a few other examples of that! Heard a few rumours lately about him and the US not sure if true. Shame was he was really clever and intelligent.

You could be me.... 53 live in Rownhams 1st away. Jan66. 5-2 win at Farton Park. Norman Dean hat-trick. Addicted since looking through the turnstiles at Milton Road where my auntie lived and saw the game going on that my dad and uncle were at in about 64.

You talking about the one in the black hat Dave B????

Yep certainly know a few on there - the lad with the black hat was in my class at Redbridge was a well known lad. Certainly felt the weight of his fists a few times at senior school. Also the lad Kev C who sat on the penalty spot was a few years older than me and well know around Millbrook. Terrible game, herded like cattle from the station and back and we were rubbish - Bristol put up a fair fight that day.

Ok so you want to carry this on...wtf difference does it make who sings and where really? you were the one that bought up about only the Northam really sings so sounds like you are the one doing the crying. Why did I get involved in this...just it makes me slightly annoyed at the way some fans label certain areas of the ground and think they are better because they stand and sing in the Northam ...something some of us did years ago at The Dell and in fact at times still do. Regardless of my age and your wrong again there but why should I be surprised as you got nearly everything else wrong on this thread.

You also demonstrate your inability to understand basic sentences you write as usual. "it's the only bit of the ground that really sings" "You get a few people clapping along a bit and that is it. All sat down as well" and as I said thats is rubbish.... Next time you are at a match have a look across at the Itchen, look at blocks 33-35 ok not as vocal as the Northam but singing all the same. Ill leave it at that I think.

You really are on a roll now...wrong again.... here is a clue "but it never fails to surprise me how many thick people pack into that section of the ground" your section?? So what you are saying is that only real true supporters that sing stand up.....

Wrong.... All around where I sit in block 34 do so perhaps you are sat in the correct section.

You must be gutted this morning coming so close to pulling that 4 goal deficit back - must be hell not having a trophy to cheer for 7 years. You should watch and cheer on Saints FC at least we won a tin pot trophy 2 years ago and played at Wembley. That Arsene bloke has to be replaced soon do you think Pardew will get it he has won more recently.

Yes he is, he had no choice to play Harding as his only other option was injured. Chaplow/Puncheon both have not played many games lately and Punch was poor on Saturday. Adkins cannot be held responsible for Hammond not knowing what a Saints player looks like in the first 25 minutes or Lallana missing 2 very good chances or Guly and Lambert missing the target early on. We played really good stuff in the first 30 minutes. My only real gripe last night was why it takes so long for us to make a substitution - not just whats happening on the pitch but the player warming up getting his shirt on tracksuit off, board held up tactics given its pigging ages!

In every crowd there are racists of both black and white...MLT did get stick from sections of the crowd quite often - he did not get the God like status all the way through and maybe until towards the end and when finished. I certainly heard quite a bit of under the west stand at him in some games. I remember Martin Chivers, Jimmy Melia, Lew Chatterley(deserved), Groves, Dixon etc all getting abuse and they like me are all honkies as well! Its an easy cop out to play the racist card - you are wrong.

So what were all the calls to the radio about honkies Harding and Richardson who got absolutely slaughtered - you sometimes talk sense, you sometimes talk ****** on this occasion its the latter. Guly gets slated because he has that lazy gait that McGoldrick had...saints fans like the Ormerods/Lee type of players that look as though they give a sh1te. Personally thought Guly had a good first half and put in a good shift but second he was awful. If you can't see why golden boy Lallana gets different support than Guly then you are crackers and thats nothing to do with race.

Well when you consider how thick some of the commentators are is it any wonder? Villas-Boas the other day was asked "are you happy you have won 3 out of 12?" I am sure he was delighted, Nigel is Shakesperian compared to Colin, Fat Sam, Jewell and Poyet

If he had torn the ligament from the bone that is minimum 6-8 weeks, source my lad that did it and the Saints doctor that treated him at the Nuffield for it. I would keep him on the bench until we are desperate hopefully not tonight and save him for the run in - any doubts he shouldnt play.

Thanks Danny been waiting for them to come on sale for our dirty weekender

When I went to a fans forum years ago...well it would have to be...I remember one manager going on about the number of calls he was getting from agents, scouts etc and stopping him from doing his job. Think having somone to weedle out the interesting ones from the chaff is a good idea and let Nigel get on with the important stuff.

Nah he is **** at snooker now and way past his best, would give a lift to Cue 8 club though...oh wrong one....

I watched them smash Cardiff 3-1 away and they were superb on the break both Phillips are in great form at the moment. Will be a tough game but hopefully a better performance than the last time I went...although Surman nearly won it with last kick. Morgan gave the worst performance on the right I have ever seen and was rightfully substitued. I was amazed West Ham stuffed them.

Oh bugger ...I remember your we will stay up under Poortvliet post......

Dr Octopus he has been in talks for weeks with them. As someone posted the other day he is the Pinnacle of the takeover - he lost his money man yesterday. He has already admitted he doesnt have enough to takeover

Why not?? West Ham have taken 6 points from them So far we have taken just 1 although that will change to 4 in April. If liquidated they will lose that many....can you explain where I have it wrong

Hope you never backed Harrys horse yesterday fell at first and died.

What I meant was the fact we would get an advantage over West Ham by that many points taking them out of IMO the automatic spots. I believe Reading/Birmingham will be in the other automatic place.

B for me...yes I hate the way they have cheated, yes I hate the way all we have heard is the sympathy card, yes I hate the its everones fault but theirs BUT I remember how I felt during the dark days and I know a few decent fans worked at North Harbour for 5 years. If we are to go up then I want to do so under our own merits .....Fat Sams whingeing would be far worse than any Skates as well. But I am not that bothered about the Premiership anyway and have loved the fact I can now go to games in this division expecting to win and can afford for me and my lad can go home and away.

Thats the real ale.....
