Dave Jones has a very short memory if he goes there, as do their fans.Seem to remember he was the brunt of a lot of obscene songs from them at one time.

There's a player who always seems to have a 'court case ready to happen' written all over him.

Weymouth.

Have you never heard of Alan Ball ?

That is a good point, as we also share in the enjoyment of Cotterill's post match moan. After Adkins waxing lyrical ( "magnificent", "superb" "crowd were fantastic", etc) and pure 'positivity' [to use another Adkinsism], it is always good to hear the depressed and desperate excuses from Clot at the other -lower - end of the scale.

Wasn't the European scout that was linked to/joined us in the summer Danish ? No idea if he did eventually join though as I think it was only picked up from the media in a paper in Europe (Holland or Denmark).

If he does sign then he can go straight into our All Time Saints Genitalia XI with: Guly Ball Ivan Gonad Tommy Foreskin

If the Police insist on Saints playing skates on Sunday, what is there to stop the Palace game moving to a Tuesday or Wednesday ? Palace may not like missing a bank holiday home fixture,but tough,doubt they'd be able to prevent it, if moved on Police advice/orders.

Hislop and Paul Merton. Dennis Wise, although more of a pinhead than down's syndrome perhaps.

Elm Park Ayresome Park Highbury Highfield Road Eastville Roker Park Goldstone Wembley Ninian Park Should add Stamford Bridge, as it bears no resemblance now to what it was like in 1976, With exception of Wembley,not been to newer grounds.

Not confusing this with Bradbury are you?

I said some weeks ago that Cotterill would gravitate back to his level, at either Bournemouth or Cheltenham. As for Cotterill attending matches wasn't he a regular at St Mary's at one point ?Just waiting for a call,from Rupert or whoever.In fact there was a rumour that Cotterill had been promised the job at one point. pending a takeover by one group or another.

Cotterill seems to still be thriving on the reputation of a manager who was once considered a good "up and coming manager for the future". That however was about 10 years ago when he left Cheltenham, to achieve bugger all since. Now he has the "they was skint,only had a small squad,no money " line to mask his limitations. Perhaps he is doing a good job, in desperate situations,but that would not put him on my list. Agree with the Burley comparison. Also, O'Driscoll, as soon as he left Doncaster I thought he'd end up at the skates, has an inevitability to it really, back to the south coast to continue the 'pompey-bompey bumfun' relationship they like to share.Would be a good choice for them to,hope Bristol City take him on board first.

My mistake - must be age. But the game did in my view turn on the needless penalty given away.

At home perhaps, but concensus of opinion from many is that he is too anonymous away from home.

Interesting to see Nigel Cough's name linked with Forest. Perhaps this will add a bit of uncertainty and disruption to them...

I was amazed to see his name linked to Bristol City,and Forest jobs,as I would not have given him long at Nottarf, in fact I suspect skates see this as a potential Burley moment of getting money to see him go. Had not previously considered that he might be all that is holding it 'together' for them.

Yes, it was about the only game played that day after an arctic blast. Right up to 2.30 I was expecting it to be called off. Can't blame the conditions though, we were 1-0 up,and although not in control, looked comfortable until Benali needlessly gave away a penalty by elbowing one of their bastards in the face off the ball for it to come back to 1-1. Remember Slater sent off in the last couple of minutes for abusing a linesman. The terace was the southbank, a gathering place for their adolescent plebs.

Bought tickets this morning.Three travelling from Cheltenham - spare seat if Rupert Lowe wants a lift. Next problem - any sensible parking near the Madcow Stadium, or is it best to abandon the car on the hardshoulder along the M4 ? Not been to this ground although made a few trips to see Saints play at Elm Park ( 0-0 1978,good atmosphere,plenty of trouble in one corner of the ground *, 1-0 1988 Le Tiss in the FA Cup, and the 3-1 defeat in 96 when two were sent off). * bloke being led out from the Saints end by Police,and his wooden leg fell off.
