	We didn't play that direct with Crouch in the team and he's not that quick.
 - 
	What's Happening?
 - 
	What was his name?

	We all know your girlfriend, you will be.

	Budget Fox News without the makeup, hair or personality. I suppose the tin hat brigade have to watch something, The Fortean Times has a lot to answer for.
 - 
	I would imagine its because The Sun BITD published photos of Sam Fox and many others on their 16th birthdays (which meant the photos were taken before they're 16) and wanted to remind everyone of what double standards they have.

	On behalf of the board i'd like to apologise to Turkish, i think we all just assumed.

				Will season ticket prices be released now and will you renew?

What row? I was row X seat 1089 when i had a season ticket years ago. - 
	Future Southampton Manager.

	These thieves are quite blatant.

				Worst Player of the Season Award 2022/23

The Fans. Bunch of mummy's boys wearing Stone Island and overpriced trainers. - 
	Definitely Rupes, old school tory type who knew nobody liked him and did'nt give a toss.

	Doesn't hurt, didn't last time really to be honest, i think you get more context and perspective as you get older. The Championship and League 1 were great last time around, its good to meet other fans and to go to new stadiums. I suspect we won't bounce back immediately and we'll end up with a younger and more hungry squad than we have at present. Who will be the fan favourite like Ricky Lambert. Exciting times ahead.
 - 
	I think we need a charity appeal for Stone Island jumpers, hats and scarves. Imagine how intimidated the board would be if loads of spotty teenagers and keyboard warriors turned up kitted out.
 - 
	He can't be any worse than what is happening in attack at the moment, IMO we should be playing 442 with the big lad up front. But then i'm a old twat who knows even less than the average fan.
 - 
	Is anyone else confused why various managers are picking the same team and not the team the fans would choose, what do the professionals see in training that we don't?
 - 
	Hard to tell, i would imagine he probably earned more whilst a pundit with after dinner speaking etc. than he ever did as a player. Currently? Who knows, possibly enough to pay the bills. Can't imagine GB News pay much for a talking head.
 - 
	He'll get an appearance fee every time he appears on GB News, he might for instance host Q&A meetings online (patreon etc.) or in person where people can either pay or donate. I suspect a book deal is in the pipeline. I would imagine currently he's quite a draw for certain communities.

	Very few original thinkers out there in UK land plus too many people who like being contrary. People tend to tune into people who's views align with their own, the strange thing is people don't just believe in COVID misinformation, they buy into every conspiracy theory out there which is twinned with the 'fake news' message (before Trumplestiltskin even uttered it) so these pied piper types protect their revenue streams by claiming conspiracy. Very hard to admit mistakes, especially the male of the species.
 - 
	Bringing Tella back in the window into an underperforming and low in confidence team would probably have messed him up.
 - 
	100% this. He's cornered himself into a revenue stream from conspiracy theorists. He'll never get back to being mainstream media so he has to keep digging.

	I loved Le Tissier in his playing days, i treasure those memories but that was 20+ years ago and people change. I'm sure he's still a nice bloke to talk to but some of his opinions he airs are at odds with what i believe and i can't take him seriously. Sky was changing its line up and chose to not renew his contract, were his views part of the decision possibly but i don't remember the other regulars who weren't renewed having outspoken views. It's very similar to when R2 changed their line up in the past couple of years. It reminded people that they were getting older and they were uncomfortable with it.

	You can claim asylum in the country of your choice, not necessarily the first one you land in. Many reasons why they may choose the UK is the previously stable society, family ties through the commonwealth, English as a first or second language, employment opportunities etc. as far as I’m aware there are very few people on this board who are refugees so most people would be guessing based on their own politics or beliefs; including myself.
 - 
	That's not what he said. He compared the language being used by our Government as similar to the language used in 1930's Germany. If you go and do a little research you'll be surprised at how right he is. The holocaust was later and is a disgusting blight on the 20th century society and shouldn't be forgotten.
