  1. Well said! Banter is one thing but this sort of thing crosses the line IMO.
  2. But it does matter where the cross comes from. From 40 meters out the defenders (or goalkeeper) see the whole flight of the ball and are therefore are in pole position to meet it and head it away (or catch/punch) . From nearer the byline the defender has to turn to see the flight of the ball and therefore loses sight of the striker he is marking. Conversely it is the attacker that sees the full flight of a byline cross and that makes him favourite to get the header. James doesn't attack the byline because he hasn't got the pace to beat the opposing full-back and hasn't the pace to get back into position if the other teams break. Harding on the other hand, regularly attacks the penalty area on the other side.
  3. The boy Joes Fonty!
  4. Or new manager syndrome!
  5. They'll have enough interest in Jackson to get close to what their asking.
  6. Southampton's population is 235,000 and Portsmouth's 198,000. Greater Southampton, including the Borough of Eastleigh, Romsey and Waterside takes it up to around 480,000. Greater Portsmouth including Fareham, Havant etc. is approx 440,000.
  7. I would have thought he is the player Leeds are most likely lining up as Beckford's replacement IMO.
  8. Still got a hell of a gap to make up in the second half of the season but with AP's words yesterday and actions in the transfer market (presuming these players sign), we're certainly going to give it a good go.
  9. Murty is quicker than James, despite being about 10 years older.
  10. One of the slowest players I've ever seen in a Saints' shirt. Possibly could get away with it as a defensive, holding midfielder but anywhere else of the field his lack of pace is a real problem. Decent enough on the ball and can cross the ball (but as Weston says, generally from far too far out). Can't just pick him because he can take a decent corner IMO.
  11. Don't know whether that is correct. In Spanish it is Jose (no accent) and would have thought the same in Portuguese.
  12. The e in Spanish and Portuguese is pronounced ay and doesn't have an accent.
  13. My understanding is it is this one. This is how it was pronounced by the interviewer on Solent. Oh and it is Jose with a J not a cH (as in Mourinho).
  14. Just when one starts to feel a modicum of pity for them, you see bollix like this, reminding me why I'd rather see them can rot in hell.
  15. The only football club he is interested in is Liverpool and will step in when Hicks and Gillette finally admit defeat.
  16. They've now had to scrap that idea due to issues over his eligibility. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12341_5850338,00.html Ironic that England have 4 SA born cricketers in their team.
  17. Lol @ artists coming up as Tractor_Saint and the Northam!!
  18. Especially if its DMG that he unveils.
  19. I was going to post that but decided it was just tooooo juvenile!!
  20. To "Don't You Want Me" Viva Jose Fonte Jose Fonte woahohoho!! Super Jose Fonte Jose Fonte woahohoho!!
  21. No, of course. I mean't somewhere of that ilk, where there are decent pitches and facilities, close to a golf course. It will be in the Costa Del Sol region though, IMO.
  22. Would have thought La Manga.
  23. Dotting the 'is' and crossing the 'ts' on Dann's contract?
  24. Fine on Chrome.
  25. Give us guys listening on the web a chance. I was thinking htf did Hypo know AP was going to be on in 15 minutes?
