I thought that. But I seem to remember when Shilts was listed on the Panini sticker (or something) his height was stated as 6'0". Quite short for a keeper really - even back in the old 'un days.

If he is charged, there must be enough evidence to say he did it, in which case he doesn't deserve good luck. Maybe the guy that got clobbered is more deserving of some good luck, like he is lucky to still have his sight, or lucky he is not scarred for life. (Assuming it was a glassing or bottling).

If I remember & I haven't used up my last post of the day, I'll be there.

They had a vid of Chaplow & he was only signed a day or 2 before. I miss the replays of the goals, which I don't think they've done since we were relegated from the prem.

Close, but no cigar, It was Natwest.

No they can't have him, he was at the Dell more often than he was at Bompey

I have a 3 piece suite to get rid of. Creamy/whitey sort of colour. The arms on the chair are worn through, but I think the sofa is ok. If wanted your sis is welcome to all or part of it f-o-c. It will need collecting from Bitterne Park.

There's another sacffolder in Southampton (RBS possibly) who's tag line is "make sure your next erection is in safe hands".

That's gonna sting

Turpins. It had a reputation as a 'cattle market', generally frequented by 'older' ladies (30 ish). It was a great place for a young man in his early 20's to go, as you were gauranteed to pull. Met my mrs there after going to see Debbie Harry at the Mayflower. She'd taken her mate there who 'lacked confidence', (the mrs, not Debs). Incidentally, the mrs was not of the older variety, at the time - she is now though. For those that don't know, Turpins later became Celebration Plaza, owned by our very own MLT & Mike Osman.

Really? Where did he live? Big Chief I-Spy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-Spy

Danny LA Rue?

Was in the Milton, more-or-less behind the goal. Bloody hell, didn't he hit it. I can't remember which way the keeper went, but if he'd got a hand to it, he'd have been representing us in the Paralympics. The Ruddock legend was born (for me at least). Spoke to him once in the Frog & Frigate - Top bloke.

Grew up in Bitterne Park, moved to Sholing when I got married, moved back to Bitterne Park (my user name should give a clue as to where) when the kids got to school age.

Sounds vaguely familiar, but by the time I'd staggered that far I'd had a skinful, for all I know it could've been Disco Darrens Dance Emporium. As long as they served alcohol I was a happy punter. Did the Wykham Arms once, didn't stay long. It was partonised by men only. In every group was a Freddie Mercury look-a-like. Pints were downed hastily & we left by the back door - as it were.

Same era as me, almost the same pubs, Home Tavern (Eastliegh), tinny on the train, Royal Oak, Jesters, Vine, Eclipse, Market, throw up around the back of Woolworths, the start again in The Bakers followed by The Guldhall & the one opposite (was it The Rising Sun?) to finish with a Burger in Champs. Back on topic, get my porn from the Newsagent (obviously not local to my home - just in case )

Queen - Wembley Stadium 1986. My first ever gig. Got to about 20 yards from the stage. My ears were ringing for 3 days. I was getting seriously worried they'd been damaged.

Not free any more: http://www.southampton.gov.uk/s-environment/householdwaste/large-items.aspx "As of 1 April 2008, fridges and freezers are no longer collected free of charge. Collection of up to two of these items will be charged at £25. Please note fridges/freezers are not included in the five items stated above." Best idea would be to do what every one else does, ie. dump them on a council estate, somewhere like the flower roads, where the Neighbourhood Warden will eventually dispose of them for you, obviously after evicting the pikeys who have made a home in them.

From my point of view the answer to your question is - I don't know. Part of me longs for the youthful (for me anyway) days of crowd surges, great fun if your at the back, not so much if your at the front. I remember on some occasions, we would finish a match about 10metres away from where we started. Nowadays though, in the flush of middle age, with a dodgy back & shot knees, I don't think I could cope with that sort of excitement anymore, I would probably be sat on the bench seats under the West Stand. Two other reason why I wouldn't be stood on the terraces are family related: I've taken my kids since they were six years old at would be cr@pping myself if they got caught in a surge at that age, and my old man has started coming to matches, which is great, but he wouldn't be too keen in a crowd at the ripe old age of 70.

Not all are pikies, the guy who sits in front of me at SM has been invited, he's an Estate Agent... oh yeah you may be right.

Started in the Family Centre, going with my mates Dad. Dad had bought season tickets for them & my mate stopped going after about 3 matches, I don't think Dad could get in without a kid, so I was surrogate. When I became a big boy & went with my own mates, our spot was just to the left (as you look at the pitch) of the Milton goal, right in front of the crush barrier. Caused a few surges, but never became the victim of one. . Had a bloke behind us with the most annoying voice, who always had a "dew drop" dangling from his nose. Hadn't seen him for about 20 years, until a couple of years ago at St Marys when I heard that familiar voice again, long before I saw him.

Fates or Skates

Scared the crap out of me when I read the OP. Phew, it's only ( )Sheffield Wednesday. Good luck and enjoy the ride Tartanowl.
