In many ways Chaplow and Morgan might be our strongest CM pairing.

No. Reading extended his contract earlier in the season (Sept/Oct) to 2013.

BBC Gossip column have a story from one of today's papers that Stoke want to sign him. Seemingly Pulis - god,I hate that name - thinks the fact OC's father played there will be a swaying factor!! Stoke...now that would be OC's career going down downhill. I also agree with the forget £10m view; probably rising to that figure,possibly with a couple more Tommy Forecast level players being thrown in until the end of the season.

Have to say that since that epic event in 1980 I have not heard a single Saints fan say they had any idea that the signing of KK was a possibility. No ITK'ers from that, although I have also wondered how different it might have been if the internet was around at the time.

No one had chance to say that about KK as no one had an inkling of a rumour before it was announced.

Our school - primary - issued a letter warning of a problem after an identification.With some vigilance it was soon halted in its spread. One other issue that ****es me off is parents sending children in with signs of impetigo which again spreads rapidly.

To be fair to the op Dune he may well be aware of the hygiene issues but if some other grubby little toe rag from a family of lowlifes introduces the nits into school then they will spread like wildfire. Just one of the downsides of compulsory unregulated education for the masses,including the gypo's, and pondlifes. This of course is my christian view,one of compassion and goodwill,at this time of year.

I am pleased to report that my border collie saw some mangy ginger tw^tter of a cat today whilst on our morning walk and soon gave pursuit to f^ck the cat off back into its own garden. This - and two dumps in the snow - certainly brightened our dog's morning.

Cat burglars ?

Shame.Probably the most proven striker we could hope for.

Perhaps Lee Barnard can put him under his protective wing to keep him on the straight and narrow then. Or a bit of counselling from Mark Dennis

I can see some mileage in the Madine rumour.He certainly appears to fill the 'good prospect with seasons ahead of him' to fit the stated criteria.Although of course we need someone to deliver in the ' here and now' rather than cultivate a player for two seasons before selling on.

Its her garden,or at least she likes to think of it as such, so she has a bit more licence to take a dump here if she does not get a walk early enough.

Cats are generally nasty little bastards who used to delight in sh!tting in my garden. That was before our border collie arrived and now thankfully she does a good job in seeing them off.

For whatever reason though Puncheon simply has not really wanted to be here this season.

rigor mortis

This is probably it, in a nutshell. Le Tiss was a demi-God as a player in my lifetime of watching Saints, only Channon can share this status in my years.But MLT's involvement in the Pinnacle fiasco really tarnishes his image. Watching some MLT clips on Youtube yesterday,pure genius with a ball.I'd like to remember him for that rather than now bleating about "what might have been".

A variation on the idea of Turkey and "stuffing" I suppose.

Depends how(if) we strengthen the squad in January in my view.

Why is it not working ? If it has just broken down then failure of the boiler itself would not be covered under a buildings policy. For alternative accomodation the house has to be "uninhabitable", not just uncomfortable or inconvenient.

No doubt a fiver out of Sue Barker's handbag,and Gabby's mobile phone..

Funds were eventually available to buy "Lambert and 1 or 2 others", but it still did not buy the promotion. As for Shearer,and especially Dowie, it looks as if we had a lucky escape.
