Just looked on a Burnley forum, and they accredit this rumour as : Perhaps not a reliable source ? (http://boards.footymad.net/forum.php?tno=104&fid=297&sty=2&act=1&mid=2114828144)

Mark Dennis certainly had 'disciplinary problems' and some 'issues' off the pitch, but from my view of over 40 years of following Saints,he remains my first choice LB. As previously stated David Peach is a close second. Bridge was a great player up to 2003 for us, but for me lacked the tackling or drive of Dennis.

It was previously suggested on here though that it might be Puncheon who is offered to Burnley. Can't see it personally, as I can't see him wanting to move there. Blackpool I thought might be a more likely destination, to resume his spell with 'ollie ( or perhaps just too hopeful of Phillips signing).

I thought it was just a human error, not said heartlessly etc and would not condemn the bloke although possibly best not broadcast as you say.

Someone who comes out of the tv coverage with credit as far as I'm concerned is 'Clem' , comes across a decent bloke that players are happy to chat to.He is a BBC sports journalist, just that with no pretentions of self importance. I dread next years coverage ,the grovelling (to mancs/l,pool, Rooney , Sir Anal, K^nt Kenny et al) and condescending or sneering that we will get from Hansen,Lawrenson and even 'Lineacre' next season, not to mention that bespeckled Irish spastic on MOTD 2 on a Sunday.

In my view, yes easily. Dennis could cross and got forward well. But he could also tackle and defend with a vengeance when needed.

Is there a freeloader of the year award ?

On the subject of left backs, and given the list of names, may I just add: Mark Dennis. Best Saints left back ever.* *although David Peach came close, just a shame his best years were played before we reached the old First Division.

No - it was the hairstyle that goy him an England call up.

or the risk associated with him, the FA are probably concerned by his media relationships, and that the tabloids might have a field day once 'arry were appointed.

..or Ted MacDougall, Phil Boyer,...or that Ted Bates was born in Norfolk, and signed from Norwich !

Everton are still c^nts, and we have not forgotten Highbury 1984.

MancU, Chelsea (Terry in particular), Liverpool, Arse, and the yids under saggy, are even more detestable now than they were 7 years ago

Incredible debt of gratitude we owe him.

Was Lawrie in attendance ? Not wishing to re-awaken a debate, but it would be disappointing if not.

Who is the ginger - Alex McLeish clone on NC's right ? oh, and whilst at it, is that Les Reed or Pete Waterman the other side of the ginger ? Is it by any chance a member of the Liebherr family, looking at the blonde lady behind her, sure Ive seen her picture on this site and the Directors box, ear-lobe watch threads before ?

Conveniently my son's school in Gloucestershire have a non-uniform day tomorrow...

Thanks, young badger has saved it for future generations

Is that a realistic timescale ? My initial reaction is that it is unlikely for that development to be completed between May and August, but pleased to be proven wrong.

Skids - Saints are coming

Ditto

I also wondered if the Liebherr family were attending today, to see Markus vision coming to fruition.

Sh!t ! I've just read the connection here, I remember when they had one shop, and were just about to open the second in Cheltenham town centre.Original founder - acc to Wiki - now worth £180m (??)

Barbour and flat cap. Its the 'Mick Channon look'.

Hope it ends 4-1 then. Sorted.
