  1. Wolves would like him on a season long loan according to my oppo. Don't think it's progressed beyond an enquiry regarding his availability.
  2. Us & Notts. Both excellent T20 teams but we have the experience.
  3. http://www.scotsman.com/news/politics/top-stories/royal-navy-pulls-out-of-nato-commitments-1-3020604 Thought you might find this an interesting read. As for frigates, Leanders were simply wonderful ships and certainly the best ships companies I've ever sailed with were found on them.
  4. Aaampshire. Simply awesome.
  5. Nipper & I intend to go as he needs to tick it off. One of the few away days when driving is actually cheaper and quicker than the train.
  6. Some extra loud tutting? I'm comfortably left wing but even know that immigration has gone way, way too far, especially from the sub-continent and there is a definite shift to the right in the mainstream public about the topic. Saying that, if integration was better perhaps it would ease tensions?
  7. Great idea. Pity we are away otherwise we'd have traveled down for that.
  8. Odd as at my local Aldi the carpark is full of new cars and yummy mummies and the local ASDA populated by the great unwashed.
  9. No. Private landlords, working folk renting.
  10. I can only comment on where I work and where I live. Social housing around me is white British & private rented is Eastern European. When I worked in the Black Country some estates, in places like Smethwick, were almost solely immigrant and others, in places like Tipton & Wednesbury, almost exclusively white.
  11. Just realised that T20 finals day is the same day I get back to blighty so I'll not be able to go. Also the ECB are doing a kids for free promotion through the holidays for YB40 games. Worth checking out as Hampshire have home games on the list. Nipper and I are doing Derby v Hants for £12 which I think is a great price for the pair of us.
  12. No wonder they were so grateful for the few shekels Tesco offered them to keep FP running.
  13. It's quite amazing that so many of our kids, who were born outside of Soton, have chosen to follow Saints.
  14. The c**t get everything he deserves as far as I'm concerned & if the delicate flowers don't like it then I really don't give a sh.it.
  15. We have to work harder than anyone to bring in a top draw striker as our profile is so low. I'd be more surprised if we pulled it off rather than disappointed if we didn't.
  16. TBF would you willingly admit to looking like that? No, nor would I, so we can be safe that it is he.
  17. England Cricket @ECB_cricket England squad 3rd Investec #Ashes Test: Cook Anderson Bairstow Bell Bresnan Broad Panesar Pietersen Prior Root Swann Taylor Tremlett Trott
  18. Aldi is excellent for good European stuff.
  19. TBF they are starting from a base that was lower than the average skates IQ.
  20. What a shock that is. Big business, that bankrolled two election campaigns, doing well out of a war that needn't been waged. Still, it made Iraq lovely and safe.
  21. He's waiting for Everton to come in for him. He won't move south.
  22. Wants to stay up north.
  23. Not until after the 1st as I've tickets for OT!
  24. I'll agree to disagree as to me we are crying out for pace up top to match our pressing style.
  25. I left Soton at 16 (30 years ago) to go to sea and never went back from the age of about 21. I'd met a lass so moved up north to be with her and years later I'm still up here and still with her. My nipper, born in Staffordshire, has chosen to follow Saints. I left it to him as I would have had no problems if he'd chosen to follow one of the local teams. By 11yo he's ticked off 40 odd grounds and is proud to be a Saint. Just a pity that we've had to give up our STs this coming season.
