  1. Thing is though Cortese can say it is not for sale but the likelihood is that it won't be up to him. I mean obviously it could all be made up but there is the POSSIBILITY that there is some basis in fact. I mean Cortese is hardly likely to come out and say 'yes the club is for sale,' especially if he was in dispute with the Liebherrs as leftback claimed. I do think that what leftback said was extremely interesting, especially considering he got stuff right in the past. Lets hope that if this does come to pass that the club stays in good hands and stays financially healthy.
  2. Grow up.
  3. Yeah I bet the reporter just invented it because he hates Southampton.Of course it could be b*llocks but I think it warrants discussion, simply because it has cropped up so often.
  4. Good post and a well made point.
  5. This has been rumbling for ages. Duncan has actually been talking about it since the summer. Of course everyone will dismiss it but I think at the very least it could be a case of the Liebherr's wanting to move on. Why else would Cortese have mentioned the fact that he would be prepared to bring someone else in if the Liebherrs wanted to sell?
  6. what is D&G?
  7. Ever . But thanks for the confirmation.
  8. Cheers for that, may give it a watch.
  9. Quiet now and go listen to Steely Dan. IMO listening to Steely Dan does give you a musical education because they contain elements within their body of work which you don't find anywhere else. Listen and offer an opinion, this thread isn't for arguments.
  10. Here is the counterfeiter for anyone interested: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/die_falscher/
  11. Just downloaded it and will be watching later Jack. I shall offer you my considered opinion at some point.
  12. Do you understand what 'educate' means? You have never heard anything by Steely Dan and so by listening to them you will be educated in their style of music. Steely Dan are often referred to by critics as a 'genre unto themselves' and so yes I think you would be better off following a little education in Steely Dan and their music. Try it and give your opinion
  13. Special mentions to Bodhisattva, Doctor Wu, Rikki Don't Lose That Number and Kid Charlemagne: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rz5iDa7tL34
  14. If you listen to Steely Dan (and the lyrics) then you will be educated in the art of great songwriting.

  16. Also Dirty Work is on the Sopranos, so you know it is cool

  18. You should listen for a true musical education. I also forgot about the legendary song that is Deacon Blue purely for it's cracking lyrics.
  19. Thanks. Do you have an opinion on Steely Dan? Jimmy Page I believe agreed with me about reelin' in the years having the greatest guitar solo. They may have been before your time so if you haven't heard of them, educate yourself.
  20. Probably my favourtie band ever. IMO they have everything, memorable songs, fantastic guitar solos and they actually set out to make intelligent songs which have a point rather than the majority of bands nowadays who churn out any old bland cr*p for the money. Some of my favourties include: Reelin' in The Years- Best guitar solo ever. Great song about reminiscing and looking back on life. Do It Again- One of their more well known songs just a classy and cool song. Barrytown- I like it because it's a bit different. Dirty Work- I love David Palmer's vocals. It works really well and the irony of two blokes singing a song from the perspective of 'the other woman' is typical of the band. My Old School- Great little upbeat song. Fantastic to play whilst speeding around in the summer. Black Friday- Shows their diversity and the dark subject matter of this and some of their other songs is pretty cool. Makes a change from most bands who just sing about love. I've probably forgotten a few as well. IMO the diversity of their work is amazing and whilst I have never seen them live, I am told by my father that they were brilliant. Unfortunately, when you bring them up in conversation, a common comment is 'who is Steely Dan?' It seems that they are unappreciated by some which is a shame. I think I prefer that they aren't as mainstream as some of the iconic seventies bands but I reckon they are better. Does anyone else love their music like I do?
  21. Verbal reaffirming his status as the most condescending poster on any web forum since the beginning of the internet I see.
  22. I laughed.
  23. The counterfeiter is my favourite. Watch it if you can.
  24. Yes on the forum which is for banter and light hearted chat. What has that got to do with anything on the main board? It went well anyway thanks for asking.
  25. Yep. He is such a hypocrite it's actually rather amusing.
