Putting my pedantic head on, its a John Fogerty song , not status ****ing quo.

You've missed out that English sports teams will only be able to play other nations the government approves of. That's England banned from Fifa , because their rules prohibit any government interference.

You only have to watch the second Broadchurch to see what happens when a great one off series suddenly becomes a second one because of the viewing figures. Its complete and utter garbage , and the storyline so thin its got anorexia . I really hope the Missing writers will do a better job.

Born in the city, but only because dad was working there. No family ties , mum was a Londoner and dad a Bournemouth man ( unbelievable to think in the early 60' s , he moved rather than face a " long commute by car ") Dad used to go home to see Boscombe play, but gradually started to pop down the dell. His job took us too the west country when I was about 10, but by then I had the bug. All my kids are saints fans and they get their occasional bit of stick as we live in Poole. I've had a bit at work ( funny how 45 years of this can be called " glory hunting" ) , shut one bloke up by taking passport into work. Apart from the football I have no affiliation with the city, and it doesn't feel like my home town. Poole does, despite only moving here in my 30's. But once a teams in your blood, its in your blood and you're stuck with it.

Purchasing tickets for QPR
Lord Duckhunter replied to SaintsFanNYC's topic in Saints Away Supporters
I'd be careful because although qpr are a smallish club , they do have a few twts following them . They're not as friendly as Fulham , and my cousin who is a st holder there reckons things aren't too good at present . things are getting a bit tense amongst the support, and they might not take another defeat too well. -
Can only be Rickie or Jose IMO. The way Jose has grown and grown into the leaders role , I can see him managing the club one day.
-
Ron was full of praise for him yesterday.
-
It's really not do able. Anyone who thinks today was a good result for us is deluded IMO.
-
What are people on? Today's result was a bad one for us, make no mistake about that. City & Chelsea will be top 2 , so we need them to beat all the rest around us. If their top striker gets injured they have Bony & Dzeko , we have Long & Gallaghar. They were poor today, but their squad is far far superior to ours.

Newcastle 1 - 2 Southampton Post Match euphoria
Lord Duckhunter replied to SNSUN's topic in The Saints
Arsenal home ,man utd and Newcastle away this year , 9 points unbelievable. Add to that the fact our 3 best players are missing, and its quite an achievement. -
****ing wound me up last night. Kept banging on about it while HR was on the pitch, disproving their point. I also know that clubs are more scientific than that, I don't believe he could get to the size he is now without the club having some sort of idea. One of my lads was at a pro club for a while when he was 9. He was quite small for a goal keeper. But even at that age, they measured him, weighed him, and all sorts. Told me he'd be 6ft by the time he left school and they were right. I seem to remember something about the size of his knees and feet was one clue, if my memory serves. Anyway, he wasnt good enough, and I doubt this lad was either. I doubt clubs realise players for being too small any more. Slightly off subject , but was the commentator related to Shane long , he had a serious man crush otherwise.

Spot on. It pulls up the ladder . Had FFP started when the premier league started chelsea and city would be ****ed. Now a RA or a rich Arab couldnt do the same to villa or Everton.
-
I meet some Dutch blokes in Portugal in the summer, they were full of praise for him, more so than Ron.
-
I suppose wording it " attended" also gives a slight nod in the direction of not allowing use of someone else's number. Not that they could prove it, but can always say its not allowed if someone complains about the practice.
-
The only way we'll have 6 is if 2 teams, say arsenal and spurs win the European cups and finish outside top 4. If they finish inside, places will go to another country. Unless you win European cup , you have to finish top 4
-
That's what I took it for. I got the feeling it was more disappointment than pain.
-
Just tried to book, but unable to. Rang up and told Newcastle doesn't count because I haven't " attended " it yet.
-
What on earth he said that is wrong there. Had he said " Koemans not good enough for Barca , he's an average manager " no doubt you would get your knickers in a twist over that.
-
Depends on the outcome of toby 's injury. If its more than a couple of weeks it would be madness to play Jose with yoshida away. Also Clynn can't be risked without those 2 as well. Pelle for long, would leave MS and victor out , playing Reed , JWP instead .
-
Don't be a bell end , the post chat was extremely positive. Full of praise, particularly contrasting our midfield and tactics to arsenals. Did you not see the piece about José ? As for the game Ron out tacticed LVG. Different class, , spot on .
-
I think arsenal players and Wenger seem to think its as non contact sport. Do they have to whinge about every single challenge
-
Shocking , typical modern defending. The fella was so concerned about Sanchez skinning him and making him look a dummy , he stood off him making it easy to cross the ball. If he gets tighter , he blocks the cross. Yes , he may get beat, but that's way too easy. Its one of my pet hates.
-
I could just about get a United fan saying they'd rather have their history than city's present position , but 20 odd championships 3 European cups is slightly different than 2 titles whilst the country was getting over the war. I was 39 before they finished above us, have only seen them do so about half a dozen times , and have seen us beat them moire times than they've beaten us. A skate in his 50's has had years of misery , except for a period that bankrupt them, and is now watching Div 4 dross. Yet they still make ridiculous claims. Are Preston fans the same, or Bury? I can't believe they are.

Tim , had Mossad killed 12 innocent people in an European capital and then 4 innocent shoppers in a supermarket , do you think the reaction within the Muslim community would be the same . There always seems to be a lot of Muslims out in the streets protesting when Israel act in a barbaric way , is the hatred of these savages in France as much as the hatred of Israel .

He's one of the worst players in the league
