Crab Lungs

absolutely crap, compared to these guys: http://improveverywhere.com/

I would just like to pop by and say: skate caants. That is all.

Steve, gave up playing FM about a month or so ago because of the memory leaks - the only thing I can suggest is that you find a 'memory washer' and keep an eye on the virtual memory - it'll get you through a bit longer until it crashes. Likewise, save game 'every day' Shocking that this has happened, fingers crossed for a patch that works soon...

Neither city are worthy IMO, but if I had to pick a city which is best for 'things to do', it'd be Portsmouth - who are currently about 15 years ahead of our sluggish council.

Didn't Corp once tell us Portsmouth had sold 80,000 replica shirts in one season? LMAO

Well, I have to say it was nice to read a balanced post from a Skate (we've been so used to the comical Ali's who come on here with their 'problem? what problem!?' attitude.) Can't say I want Portsmouth to go out of business, though I do want them to experience what we've just experienced after some of the not-so good natured comments that were levelled our way since the financial troubles. That and Peter Storrie - horrible, lying little man. Besides, I can't wait to play them again - gotta love derby games! Maybe we could start a 'B' side for when they rock up in the Blue Square South? ;-)

Oh my God, I was exactly the same... rarely understood the hatred and was never really that bothered about them - until last season... whilst they were laughing at our rather sad demise, little did we know they foundations were being laid (or is it stripped away?) for an even more comical fall from grace. And I still find it genuinely funny that Saints fans, despite their club being 2 divisions below them and -10 at one point could still look east and find them amusing. And you know, it wasn't just for sport, for fun or to deflect our own troubles - they are genuinely, finger-pointingly funny. Their pandering for the Sky cameras, their small away following, the fact they cant even sell out a shed for home games, their finances, directors, managers, players, the way they were duped and mismanaged so disgustingly (whilst they were giving us the v's and saying they were living the good life)... everything. It's been a brilliant last few months... Every day, a newspaper prints something to add to the comedy And TDD... to play them again... brilliant. To play them and stuff them... AMAZING. I'm not sure if it could get any better if/when that happens!

Ohhhh great memories.... How I want to FEEL that again!!! Oh, how it would be great to play them again next year in the CCC... our next meeting with them can't come soon enough!

While there is still a chance of meeting the Skates in the FA Cup, I want us to remain in it.

I agree TDD.. I just hope we meet them again soon and we do turn them over. Meanwhile, this just.... numbed me.

Oh, how times change

I actually cannot believe some of the comments on here...

What is this bizarre marketing ploy?

Wouldn't say he was looking to leave 'as soon as he could' - didn't he give us 7 years good service? And of course, at the time he was a potential England international. Still a quality player, would love to see him play for Saints again. Him and Lambo upfront in the CCC next season

I love you're team but the day Gerrard actually stays in a position as opposed to going 'Roy of the Rovers' every single game is the day... erm, you get what I mean!

Have to defend Bale on teh first goal. Whilst he allowed too much space between him and the defender, the clearance before hand was absolutely diabolical. Agree with you about Delph, he was absolutely superb. He's got everything and should be a future England international in the future... but he might have to do the traditional step down to make a step up.

Brilliant call... to be honest, I actually always prefered him over Shay Given!

Have to say, I think I made a bad call on Owen... which leaves one space free for one of my stand by's...

He's been awesome for the past 3 seasons IMO. :-) While we're on the subject on England... can I just underline how much I hate Jermaine Jenas?

Wayne Bridge was never the same after his injury. At Fulham he did OK but when he returned to Chelsea, he looked like he'd lost more than a yard of pace and alot of confidence. At City he's got even worse. Sadly, it looks as though his best days are well behind him now. Gareth Bale, however, has far, far more potential than Wayne Bridge and is of course, much younger. Redknapp's stripped him of confidence completely and you can see that in his performances. A move to a club where he would be encouraged by the manager (Hodgson, Pulis etc) and not pillored would invigorate him. Bale, for me, still has the ability to become a world class left back/wing back/winger - he just needs an arm round his shoulder and a manager who believes in him. Whatever you think of Burley, he gave that to Bale - as he did to Kenwyne Jones. Who remembers Kenwyne's dramatic transformation from League Two clogger to Premiership potential? It was almost overnight... I remember watching him the weeks before the Birimingham home match and wondering if he'd ever reach beyond 'raw' - within a few weeks, he did. Touch, movement, heading, shooting - everything suddenly all clicked into place. I guess what I'm trying to say is ... don't write off any raw but naturally gifted footballers. On the other hand, I actually think Theo is far more of an athelete than a footballer - and it still shows. He's still got far more developing to do as a footballer than Bale, Jones etc..

Poor old Storrie-teller.... going on holiday whilst this colossal bugger-up of a football club sinks further. Something tells me he's sensed the **** is about to hit the fan and he's doing a runner...

Haha, I agree. Never rated him.

Take Jamie O'Hara out and I honestly think there isn't much to them. He appears to be a bit of a driving force...

Just wondering also whether there will be the late panic in the papers around April time saying that the stadia 'isn't ready' and SA's football association has been thrown into turmoil - with the FA ready to step in (roll eyes!) and save the World Cup! The of course, nothing ever materialises... because it was all ********.
