Kerry Vixen

And they haven't bothered giving him a squad number

If we've got £15m for him that's the best piece of business we've ever done

Is this written in code?

And Bild has the sixth highest circulation of any newspaper in the world.

Quality - we have a winner

Well his song's sorted: "Stop! Ammar time."

We could just field a team made up of Saints fans, I reckon it would be competitive: GK: Me LB: David Frost CB: Craig David CB: Lucy Pinder RB: That chap from the BBC who everyone thought was going to buy us RM: Wade Elliott CF: Sam Vokes Sub: Benny Hill, as unfortunately dead, so should be viewed as a back up option at best. Just need the rest of the midfield and a supporting striker.

I'm a Saints fan. Doesn't mean I'm any good though

Aha - will do. Cheers

Where is this actually being reported? There's nothing on that Twitter link, and nothing on the OS

Yes I am THAT bored that I have put together a team made entirely of free transfers from that list. I predict this team would come 9th in the Championship. If nothing else, it's certainly got some experience. Apologies I've had to include some skates - I'm working on a shoestring here. GK: Daryl Flahavan RB: Stephen Wright CB: Anthony Gardner CB: Jonathan Fortune LB: Jon Harley LM: Jeremy Aliadiere CM: Lee Carsley CM: David Norris RM: Therry Racon CF: Benni McCarthy CF: Nathan Ellington Subs: Darren Powell Michael Brown Jamie Clapham Ivan Sproule Rory Fallon Kevin Lisbie Ultra-impact sub (surprised Liverpool have let him go tbh) - Louie Soares

And great stuff btw - thanks for taking the lead and sorting it

The story about he, Don Nicola and the watch should be on there.

There's also apparently something about a game we had (possibly with Spurs?) back in the day when we played out a draw, and both teams got promoted as result, at Brighton's expense. It was in 1978 or something. You'd think they'd possibly be over it by now, but it seems they still hate us for that as well.

Yes, and I'm glad.

Your web site is better than the OS

Good comeback

He actually said " “He is the best young lad I have ever come across in my time" Snarf

That would require an articulated lorry (hopefully)

I got through at 9.15 after a million attempts. The order was: - 30x recorded fella saying "Sorry, all our operators are busy, please call later" - Then connected but with soothing hold music for 10 minutes. Stay on the line - Then it started ringing, and kept ringing for at least 5 minutes. Again stay on the line - The spoke to the nice lady, who whilst a pleasure to speak to, wasn't the quickest. All in all, with hold music, ringing and booking process combined, it took 25 minutes to book two tickets. At that rate for one booking, and with that antiquated online system basically useless, not surprised it's taking forever for people to get through on the lines.

The story on the OS with the headline "TICKET OFFICE OPEN FROM 7AM" is a teeny bit misleading isn't it, given they aren't going to start answering the phones until 8.30

Yes - sorry.

This is definitely not true.

From what I hear from people close(ish) to him, he is likely to be off. That would also make sense of why it's gone quiet on transfers. Presumably we know the money is coming but trying to do the deals before it's common knowledge which will push the prices through the roof. I hope he stays but I think it's pretty unlikely.
