In the town called Middlesbrough lived a man with spray on hair and cried to the FA that Southampton didn’t play fair Steve Gibsons got spray on hair, he’s got spray on hair he’s got spray on hair steve Gibsons got spray on hair he’s got spray on hair

Being cardiovasularly fit extends your life, being strong increases the quality of your extended life. There is now tons of evidence that improving your VO2 max has insane health benefits and doing strength training means you're much better equipped to deal with old age. That's where i am at now, for me it's no longer about trying to keep up with the younger lads, its being fit, strong with good mobility and flexibility to still be fit and active at 70.

How to boast about where you're going on holiday without boasting about where you're going on holiday........

If i've got this right we have a one year option on Stewart anyway so he isn't actually out of contract is he? We can just trigger the extra year, same with Charles?

Nick has a lot of critics, i assume these people weren't around in the early 90s. I will always respect Nick for what he did with others involved for the Branfoot protests; which took some doing as well before the days of the internet when you could just post something on a social media platform. He's been a regular fan for decades so has certainly earnt the right to have a voice. In my experience he will also do anything to help fellow saints fans. I listened to the Podcast this morning for the first time, mainly after reading stuff on here about it. TBF i thought it was alright, all the lads came across as decent guys, Glen was quite funny, i though it was a decent listen and covered the points well enough. It's never going to appeal to everyone and easy to pick fault in what is essentially fans giving their POV but as podcasts go it was alright. TBH i dont really get the criticism.

Well we signed someone for £10m as our first choice in the premier league after a season on loan in league one so maybe he could even be first choice 😂

Him and Larin in plus Stewart and Bree extended would be a good start for sure. We’re going to need a complete overhaul of the glovesman department. Ramsdale probably off again, Long and McCarthy out of contact and hopefully we can get find some stupid enough to take Baz. So we need Peretz plus two more goal custodians in

A special place for you mate weve been looking at 9 Muses as a possible hotel for May half term next year, assume you rate it if you’ve gone back

I like that, might even be tempted to buy one to play in.

You dont half come out with some nonsense.

Just don’t say anything about it on Facebook or twitter and you’re door will be through quicker than you can say “two tier policing”

100% agree. Maybe time for non graduate quotas in senior roles? I speak from experience of previously working for a company who had a very expensive graduate program which saw over 80% of the people on it leave within two years. I was involved in the interviewing and management of some of them and whilst there were some fantastic, talented and humble kids, many of them were highly entitled and demanding payrises and promotions within 6 months. I will never forget how one girl described her "normal childhood" as parents who were both barristers, hobbies were looking after her horses and ambition was to be CEO. Would have loved to have seen a program like that for young kids local to the main UK offices rather than hiring the supposedly top talent in the country who all thought they were to dogs bollocks. There does seem to be a divide amongst British kids some of which feel there is no hope for them while others are incredibly entitled and think the world owes them.

Id be very interested to see how much gets spent on DEI roles in the public sector. You can find dozens if not hundreds of very, very well paid jobs in Pub Sec in this gravy train. I've seen jobs paying 70-90k as head of DEI in various organisation, which suggests there are also teams of people under neath them. A truly fantastic job, making sure you've got a enough non whites, women and LGBTs women working in your organisation and if anyone disagrees with you you can get them fired for being racist, homophobic or sexist. The job where you cannot fail.

Anyway, i like Blackmore and Alfie House, both come across as decent blokes. They've got to walk a difficult tightrope between reporting the news, giving their view and also keeping the club onside with their employers. Overall i think they've got it right, critical when needed, praised when possible and do it in a quite listenable and interesting way.

Hopefully his missues doesnt know he's on there
