Essruu

I think that one day cures will be found for things like cancer, mental illness and homosexuality. At the very least, propensity to either of them will be able to be detected during pregnancy so that termination will be an option (like it is for Downs Syndrome today).

Happy Birthday Matt. Sorry you won't get much of a present out of the £3 I paid for the hardback copy of your book recently.

"Good heavens, just look at the state of that oik's cap. It doesn't fit him properly, isn't on straight and the beige clashes terribly with his grey overcoat. Bloody slum dwellers."

I saw this geezer at the match yesterday.

I once collected my belly button fluff in a glass over a period of a few months. It's surprising how quickly it builds up. I got bored and chucked it all away before I had chance to stuff anything with it though.

GiffGaff no contest. Truly unlimited Internet. Cheapest by far. I have a spare new SIM card if you want it after looking into it.

Not a good idea when the manager and assistant manager will be living there

Skip to 35 secs. This is their cup final. [video=youtube;G-MXrnHk0ZQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-MXrnHk0ZQ

Did anyone else get an erection during the rape and attempted rape scenes?

Hypochondriac's thread on footballforums.net gives some of their fans' perspective on it. They SO want us as rivals, bless them.

If you want up to date Saints news, you could always go to the official site or a whole host of independent sites that don't charge you £5 for the privilege.

Really? Are you sure you're not hacking into your 35yr old father's account to post your rubbish?

GM was one of the few contributors that I'd stop to read the postings from, rather than skim over like I do for so many. There must, surely, have been something said or happen by private message to warrant it. If he was indeed banned as a result of #81 and #82 then this forum is more f***ed up than we already think.

I don't think patching a hole that, maybe 2 or 3 users have figured out, is your main problem tbh.

Maybe people object because there are other revenue streams that can offset the costs involved, just like virtually every other website/forum seems to manage?

Nah, it'd ruin the TSW business plan. I could start a cut-price Full Membership scheme though, I suppose

I don't need to ;-)

Personally, it'd take something fairly special and spectacular to make me want to pay to use a web forum; Especially when it is not the norm and virtually all other forums do not need to charge. At the moment, and for as far into the future as I can see, this forum is not it. Soon after this ruling commenced for non-payers, I was quite happy to be restricted to three posts in 24hrs, because the quality of the board had diminished so much. There are a lot of stubborn and non-paying users from 'back in the day' who helped make the various incarnations of the S4E / TSW forums what they are (were?) These Registered Users are now not able to start threads, so a whole swathe of interesting subjects are lost; What we're left with amongst some decent paying Members are some that, to be blunt, are plain boring, repetitive and recyclers of rubbish topics. This, in turn, turns more people off of the forum. I don't see any reason why restrictions cannot be lifted so that everyone can start threads, paying members or not, but leaving the three post rule in if the owners still think it is needed. This would bring more decent Registered Users out of the woodwork and if they start threads, they may even get caught up in the debate and decide to bite the bullet and join up. I just see the inability for Registered Users to start topics as suicide from a TSW business point of view.

Your setup clearly doesn't display the Euro currency sign correctly, you &@%€.

Agreed. Registered Users not being able to start threads is THE biggest single problem. Fine, if the Admin Nazis want to hold Registered Users to a £5 ransom if they want to post more than three times per day (although there are ways around this ) but only having threads started by paying members has proved disastrous.

Oh FFS you *%#€, why are you always so f***ing negative, you Lowe/ Cortese/ SuperSaint Lover. Etc. Ad Infinitum.

http://www.footballforums.net/forums/ The above is pretty good. I only really view the League 1 forum. It's nice to see the views of fans from other clubs. There are a few from here post on there, although some of the Saints fans on there are and/or slate TSW - so it's much like being on here sometimes!

We don't play in Red. Even when we played in stripes, with the black socks there was just as much black in our kit. You may as well sing Black Army. Red & White Army would be fine and proper though. If you follow Red Army with the original northern monkey and now copied by every unimaginative crowd tune 'Southampton Til I Die', then you're one of the ****s I despair at.

Only after a couple of slow runs, then a bit faster, then the repeating echo version. We NEVER sing it that well.
