Good point. The only snag is that you might have to go to a game of fotball.

Email beforehand. During the discussions on here our friend in denmark got involved. I had tried logging into the Midtjylland website and got as far as selecting my seats but they wanted a Danish credit card for payment and at that point I was thinking about contacting my old Danish contacts. Does anybody on here know any Saints fans that live in Italy, Czech Republic, Israel even?

There were quite a few of us in the home section next to the Saints. I got some tickets in advance from a nice friendly Danish Saints fan.

No matter how big the country is it always seems to fit on the page.

I was thinking of driving.

Yes, thanks. I've just done some more research. Does anybody fancy driving there? I once met two old ladies in Palmyra who had driven all the way from Italy in a Fiat 500.

We paid a day visit from Haifa on a cruise and did a tour around the Sea of Galilee. It was not what you might expect at all, more like the south of France or Italy than a dusty Middle-Eastern country.

No? I was using Wikipedia already: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapoel_Tel_Aviv_F.C. [/url] Edit: Who would have thought that there were two teams called Hapoel? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapoel_Be%27er_Sheva_F.C. That's the great thing about these European competitions. You learn so much about other cities and cultures.

I thought it was Tel Aviv. And why not play there?

My feed is minutes behind all yours

That's what happens when you stick the microphone up his nostrils. No I can't understand it either.

It's not bo!!ocks. It's all balls.

Ajax is good for cleaning underwear.

Not at all. I just used to read my son's when he wasn't looking

Gentlemen, I have the highest admiration for the incredible work that you have done but bloody hell, my head doesn't half hurt!

Must be true. We have a history of signing crocks.

More complicated than you might think. Whatever, there was a significant change to the registration system and many will have wrongly assumed that they were already on the register. How many people actually knew that the syetem had changed? http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/conservative-changes-to-voter-registration-leave-800000-off-election-rolls-a6845796.html http://www.electoral-reform.org.uk/voter-registration As for online registration: A Cabinet Office spokesperson said: "Individual electoral registration is an essential measure to tackle electoral fraud. We have worked hard with local authorities for years now to clean up the register – any entries removed will be people who have moved house, died or never existed because they were registered fraudulently. Students often move house every year and this can make it hard for councils to keep accurate registers. That’s why, with Government’s help, councils are working with universities on ways of ensuring the highest possible level of student registration. We fully support the aims of the National Voter Registration Drive this week. Students, like everyone, can now apply to register online in just a few minutes and at any time, day or night."

I covered this point earlier in the thread. It is a lot more complicated for a mobile youngster to register than it is for some old git who has lived at the same address for years.

I can see that a loan makes sense but not to a Premier League club, I would have thought.

That's nothing. Fonte is marked as 9/10

I posted this on another thread: There's a summary of all the clubs and their financial situations here: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/may/25/premier-league-finances-club-by-club-breakdown-david-conn (These figures are to May/June 2015) Saints paid 70% of their turnover as wages. TV money is the most significant income.

The Times this morning has a move for JRod as a likelihood of 10/10
