  1. Similar to Lowe and Cowen's £563,000 the first time round?
  2. Pedant alert: Norwich Union.
  3. Good spot anyway! Was news to me.
  4. Newsflash for Skate: David James is utter gash.
  5. Season over.
  6. I never did trust Sting. Shifty looking bugger.
  7. Brilliant.
  8. Listening to it on Radio 5. Sounds like a very odd game. Steve Claridge doesn't seem to have too much faith in Tony Adams.
  9. Thanks for the post and for being so open. Sorry if mine seemed flippant - I certainly wasn't trying to make light of the care system or anything like that. Sometimes you look at a kid's parents and wonder what chance they've got, but I suppose it's fair to look at the care system in the same way in most cases. Anyway, well done on being a success!
  10. In a perverse way her mum may have done her a favour. Were her chances of growing up to be a complete waste of space higher before or now?
  11. Has he got his own show? Oh goody!!
  12. I can quite believe we don't need to sell any of the young players.... so long as we can sell Rasiak, John, Saga, Skacel, Davis etc.....
  13. Safri, Baseya? Payments due on other deals?
  14. Easy. They're not actually that good.
  15. McGoldrick was by far our most threatening attacking player against Charlton on Saturday and is the new "Jermaine Wright" IMO. People have to blame someone and it's easy to point the finger at a creative player. Given that we are clearly not going to see John, Rasiak or Saga in a Saints shirt again would someone like to suggest who in our current squad is remotely capable of playing upfront? Wright Phillips missed two great chances against Charlton and has a proven track-record of being unable to find the net on a consistent basis. Peckhart and Robertson are awful. Paterson may be good but frankly, who knows how good or whether good enough. McGoldrick is one of our only players actually able to hurt the opposition. When isolated against a defender he will beat him more often than not. He was taking the **** out of Cranie when he moved to left wing. By the way, I probably would have included Euell in the list but I forgot about him.
  16. I agree. Our most important players are: Davis Pearce Holmes McGoldrick Schneiderlin IMO.
  17. If it makes people happy then.... it was exactly like this:
  18. Much higher chance of doing so than without, for example, Davis and Pearce IMO.
  19. The "major" shareholders account for around 50-60% of the issued capital. We do not have any major institutional investors any more so this 50-60 is basically the three amigos + Lowe's wrinkly acolytes. The rest is presumably fans and small investors (of dubious sense!) Shareholders have voting rights commensurate to the proportion of shares in the company they own. Lowe (+ cronies) and Wilde probably own around 40%.
  20. This article tells us nothing new.
  21. But on the other hand we have proven in the past that if we are in the Prem we will get 30,000+ (virtually) every week. There are currently 9 teams in the Premier League with an average home attendance of less than 30,000.
  22. Tristan da Cunha's the most remote isn't it? Seem to remember reading something about it a while back. I know I could just click on the link to check....
  23. I'm impressed he managed not to have a go at anyone else.
  24. Cheers. 1-6 are essentially procedural. Any more info on 7 and 8?
  25. He never lets facts get in the way of a minority rant.
