  1. Sums up in a nutshell for all the PFC dinlos who still don't get it why they are sullying and degrading every competition they touch.
  2. Banning someone for expressing a legitimate opinion? Really? Those actions are far more dangerous and short-sighted than any macho posturing.
  3. which is good news for you lot. Watch out for my interesting, stimulating and, I dare to hope just a tiny bit, lovely threads throughout the day.
  4. Try carving a but plug out of ginger root and then sliding it carefully into your anus.

    Under NO circumstances should you try this with galangal or fish sauce.
  6. This is true although if you're thinking ground redevelopment, I think you need to be thinking about additional revenue streams other than "fan" ticket sales (retail, corporate, diversification of events etc...)
  7. Sure, that's why it's exciting!
  8. Cortese is a banker FFS. There's no way we are going to debt-finance a football stadium, or an en expansion of one, in the current markets. So.... if there are any serious plans in this regard either: a) they are a long way off and contingent upon establishing ourselves in the top flight first and a relaxation of project finance liquidity; or b) we are seriously loaded.

    They are on Saintsplayer. No need to apologise.

    It's funny, Ron, I was just watching the highlights of the Shresbury match and saw Connolly poach that goal and play a lovely one-two with Lallana and I thought to myself, "y'know, Benjii, he's possibly our best forward when he's fit. I'll wager he is more than adequately acquainted with the treatment room though. Which is a shame."
  11. Would certainly be tempted if I was in Soton tomorrow evening but, alas, I am not.

    Ekelund See, he was a funny one because he was the best midfielder at the club when fit, and he seemed fit, but someone, in their wisdom, obviously thought it wouldn't be long until he was back in the treatment room.

    Yeah, Guan 2.0, I think that's pretty much how I feel about it.
  14. I don't think anyone disagrees with that. I hope we splash the cash.
  15. Yeah, but that season was absolutely ridiculous from our point of view - an amateur manager, a despised chairman and players no one had ever heard of. What did Leicester average the season they were relegated? I think if both clubs were on a similar footing, success wise, we would get easily the bigger crowd.

    Arguably, and it's naught but my opinion, David Hughes could have been one of our best midfielders, maybe even the best midfielder at the club. Unfortunately he always seemed to be injured. I bet he was no stranger to the treatment room! What do people think, Saints fans?
  17. Not sure why people always throw Leicester about as a sort of similar sized club. It's poopycock and balderdash - we are a much bigger club than Leicester. You don't need huge investment to make a difference in the Champ. Assuming we have zero debt liabilities then a transfer fund of something like £5m-£10m would give us a good shout of going up, especially if we still have the likes of Lallana.

    Let me know how you get on, Dog. I had an accident with some chillies once which was both bad and good at the same time so I am interested in this. Thanks.
  19. Speaking of the Championship, did anyone watch the Welsh derby? Couldn't believe how poor Cardiff were. Utter gash.
  20. People buy it to read titlle-tattle about Saints and match reports etc. The source of a photo appearing in said match report is presumably of little concern to any casual reader. The club does not need the Echo one jot. The converse is not true and if Murray had any sense he would STFU.
  21. Why would Cortese make public statements at odds with the wishes of the people who are, effectively, his employers? How does he benefit from that? How does anyone benefit from that?
  22. Will David Connolly be there? I, for one, would be interested to hear about the challenge of being the club's best striker whilst being somewhat injury prone.
  23. Oh dear. Sorry to hear that. Get on the medicine.

    Pulis on refs

    I think the managers should nominate a senior management figure from amongst the group of most venerable Premier League clubs to announce the rankings on air each week. Maybe Roy Hodgson could do it?
  25. I felt a bit subconscious the other day too Chez, but I couldn't be sure what it all meant.
