There's no finer education than at the university of life fella.

If you didn't take your bird to football you would halve your outing goings immediately. Not only should women not go to football as there is no place for them, in your case there is even more reason not to allow her as it's a significant cost saving measure. Buy her a new iron and ironing board as compensation and tell her she can look forward to saturdays watching her Friends boxsets while you are out at the football.

You are 18 Griffo, your life should involve nothing more than drinking, football, slamming birds and going to gigs. This is the only acceptabl behaviour for an 18 year old.

Thierry Henry, wants to finish his career in England, we are interested apparantly.

So you've gone from stacking shelves to sweeping up behind cameramen?

word is we are one of three clubs interested in Thierry Henry, who wants to finish his career in England. You heard it here first people.

I've seen this mentioned a few times now, is it any good?

with or out of?

The sure idiocy on here means it'll take a lot to beat this forum. I dont mean this board, which can can be okay and interesting if not a lot holier than thou most of the time, but the main one. 18 pages of people making mock ups of what the new kit could like for example, defies belief. SOme of the rumours have me in stitches and the sheer lack of football knowledge and reality on there never ceases to amaze me, hence this site is compulsive membership. The UI tends to have more realistic posters football wise and more people that know what they talk about so from that point of view then that is better. Could i live without both? definitely, do i want to? No way!!

It seems many of you dont have any but i am sure some of you do. What do you do when you are not obsessing about Saints? I've recently got a new job, i wouldn't say it's an interest as such but it is a definite career jump and will involve a lot of client entertainment in the future so that will take up a lot of my time, to be fair i enjoy entertaining so not a bad thing to do really taking punters out for meals, drinks, strippers etc. I also enjoy the gym, playing 5 a side, Krav Maga, going for the odd pint here and there, photography, started playing golf and clothes shopping probably take up most of my time these days. What do you lot do when you are not panicing over the release date of season tickets, worrying about if the new kit has thin stripes or thick ones and dreaming of which unrealistic player we are going to believe totally fatuous rumours and speculation about joining us?

With a pair of reebok classics?

and could some of you, mods included do with lightening up a bit? Discuss....

I disagree with your comments and dont really see what is wrong with what Dune has said, he is simply stating a fact. 5 years ago when i was out of work for a while i worked on a building site doing hod carrrying and it was a well known fact that the eastern european labourers would work for around £30-£40 an hour a day less than English labourers. Firstly because a lot of it was cash in hand and secondly because they were single blokes living with their mates in a shared house. Now compare that to the English hod carrier supporting a wife and 2 kids on £12 an hour and the Polish lads had a lot more disposable income than him even though they earnt less doing the same job. The polish lads were quite happy working cash in hand for less. I know you liberal elitiest wont like it and will be offended for the Poles, but they didn't mind one bit.

If it's a team of favourite players in my saints history and not the best players than as follows GK Shilton RB Dodd CB Svenson CB Ruddock LB Dennis MF Case MF MLT MF Anders Svenson ST Pahars ST Colin Clarke ST Moran Manager Strachan

Please explain.

Baggio i agree with, not Del Piero though, always thought he was over rated. Cafu, you dont get 142 caps for Brazil and play in 3 world cup finals without being a great player.

So you are using his record at international level to how well he will do at Championship level? Lets not forget, the England job has made clowns of better managers (on paper) than Steve McClaren, the incumbent for one who was viewed as some sort of managerial god before he took over the England role. As a bloke he does come across as a bit of a plank but he is a decent manager, certainly as good a club like Forest could hope for. With regard to his "ok" record at Middlesborough, what would Saints fans think of a manager who had given us regular midtable premier league finishes, won the Carling cup and got to a UEFA Cup final? I say he'd be thought of as some sort of hero.

Now Nicky has set the bench mark for what makes a great chairman i feel others need to start raising their game. The days of Ted Bates and Simon Jordan are over, they are the remenants of a bygone era where the distain for the fans and the 4-4-2 formation also belong. Nicky is the future for all chairman and the model for which others should aspire. The way he is rebuilding this club is incredible.

I hope this means we can also attract some of Exeters most promising programme sellers as well. I understand they have a reputation for producing the finest ones in league one.

add to that list Di Stefano Paulo Maldini Ronaldo (the goofy one, not cristiano) Beckenbaur

Ha ha!!! Now it all makes sense!!! Stuey is COYR on the UI, he announced he was retiring then 3 days later came back with a different user name, still posting his usual sh*te.

Or Johnno Quick. Any player who averages a goal per start, has lightening pace and incredible strength deserves a mention in a a top 10 list.

You were on about defending from the front, chasing defenders down etc and conceding less goals because of it. I dont remember our greatest ever player chasing too many defenders down, presumably he wouldn't get into your Saints side? Every player is different and if we have a striker who "stands around waiting for chances to fall into his lap" all season but scores 20+ goals then i for one wont be criticising him.

If we want a successful club we have to pay our way. I applaud Cortese for this pricing structure. I am a firm believer in you get what you pay for and think It's a fantastic piece of visionary ticket pricing which enables us to pay a decent price for a quality product. On another note, has anyone noticed the personal message from Cortese on the car park barriers? As you leave after putting your ticket into the machine it wishes you to "have a nice day" What a lovely gesture from Nicky. This proves that not only is he a superb businessman he also cares about each and every one of us.

Couldn't help but notice his picture was taken at SMS. Does this mean he is signing?
