  1. Brilliant save. Bastard.
  2. Agreed. FF should have come out for that one.
  3. He'll do nicely.
  4. I'll raise you Messi, Ronaldo and Bale.
  5. I see http://www.sackpardew.com has gone rather quiet.
  6. I agree! Ladies and nutjobs, post 100,000 has been updated:http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?14620-Pompey-Takeover-Saga&p=2084756#post2084756
  7. Not that hilarious, as Liverhampton would still go through on their head-to-head record with Ludogorets.
  8. It certainly doesn't. P.S. Bloody Spurs, 2 almost identical jammy away wins in a row. Anyway, their luck can't last much longer.
  9. Where? Footballorgin?
  10. Hope Chelski don't do a Sunderland on 10 man WBA, and run away with their goal difference.
  11. BLUEMANGROUP 3:07 PM on 21/11/2014 The new boys have had all season to impress at their clubs......and failed to do so. One has been injured and is here to regain full fitness, hardly what we need. I am certainly not blaming Awfs......his hands are tied by the board. Lets see what happens in January.......if the board do not invest in better players than we have then the crowd will turn against them. If we truly own our club we should be listened to. I wonder how long it'll take being ignored before the penny drops for our fishy friend?
  12. Better than the 40+ passing move leading up to Morgan's against Newcastle?
  13. Let's see, we've only conceded 5 goals all season, and scored a shitload. Villa have only scored 5 goals all season (just 1 in their last 6 matches), conceded 16, are missing their best attacker, and have a number of their best defenders injured. So 1-0 to them seems logical.
  14. Ok, we'll settle for beating Madrid. In the final. And regarding agent Connolly, RB is right, he's the only bit of quality they have. Admittedly he's about 40 and crocked, but a class above the rest. Interestingly, after reading the phews' comments (great for a laugh yesterday), a number of them want him to take over from Awful Andy.

  16. With a bit of luck we'll get Bournemouth in the League cup semis. Next best thing.
  17. Not until they lose against Aldershot in the league. Assuming of course Aldershot don't pass them on the way up.
  18. FFS, hurry up FF. Or some loser nut job is going to steal your thunder! Edit: To make up for the above sin, this has to appear in the 100,000 post. From this epic thread's founding father, Fitzhugh Fella. In recognition of going past the 100,000 posts milestone, I have done a little research into one of the enduring myths as to why Southampton people are known as scummers. According to our fishy friends it is all to do with a strike being held in Portsmouth which was broken by casual labourers from Southampton. I could find no references to this myth but did uncover a story which sort of puts the boot on the other foot. Ladies and Gentlemen (and Nutjobs) I give you the true story of the 1890 Southampton Dock Strike. Portsmouth’s involvement in the 1890 Southampton Dock Strike. In 1890, emboldened by the London Dock labourers’ success of the previous year when they won the “Dockers tanner” (sixpence an hour), and by news of similar increases gained at Portsmouth and Plymouth, the Southampton dockers formed a union and decided to strike for more pay, shorter hours and recognition of the union. They were duly offered five pence per hour for day work and sixpence for night work but were denied recognition for their union. The men subsequently downed tools at midnight of the 7th of September and assembled in a crowd outside the dock gates, completely blocking Canute Rd and access to and from the docks. On the 9th the strikers were joined by many seamen as well as “town roughs” according to contemporary sources and all work now came to a standstill. The police made repeated charges but were unable to clear the road whereupon the mayor – James Bishop – applied for troops and 280 men of the Yorkshire Light Infantry were sent over from PORTSMOUTH. The Riot Act was read by Bishop after which the troops attempted to push the crowd away with the butts of their rifles and later with fixed bayonets, but were met with volleys of stones, one of which struck the mayor. There were calls for the troops to open fire but the mayor stayed calm and instead ordered the fire brigade to use hoses and a small area was cleared enough for the troops to occupy a passageway. Some of the mob took revenge by rushing up to East St and demolished the mayor’s boot-and-shoe shop, while others went the next day to his house in Grosvenor Square where the troops stationed outside to protect it threatened to open fire. Meanwhile some strikers had now gained access to the Docks from Southampton Water and the shipping companies appealed to the Admiralty who then sent two gunboats and a torpedo boat from PORTSMOUTH. The stand off came to an end when the shipping companies revised their offer which the strikers accepted “for the time being”. Several of the rioters were given three months imprisonment, while others were fined or bound over. The mayor meanwhile was given a unanimous vote of thanks by his fellow magistrates but the strain of the dispute brought on congestion of the brain from which he did not recover for some months, after which he removed himself and his business to……yes, you’ve guessed it, PORTSMOUTH!
  19. Please post some here. Most of us have been banned years ago.
  20. Somebody wake FF up. We're getting perilously close.
  21. Maybe they should post them here. That would give us some hearty laughs. And get us to 100K PDQ.
  22. Nice camera shot of
  23. Lots of streams for El Crapico. Good news L B Ave, some of them are in Russian and other languages.
  24. Good call. Don't know if they can actually stop nut jobs posting, but the mods can delete all the inane posts that may appear at 100,000 and after, reserving the 100,000th slot for one of the nut job giants. FF and RB are being very modest, but one of them, or Trousers, should have the honour. FF for being the father of this thread of course, and RB and Lord T for being between them responsible for about 50% of the posts, without which we'd be nowhere near this historic landmark. One idea is for the above mentioned nut jobs (and maybe others!) to submit to the mods their contribution of wit and wisdom for the historic post, and the mods to combine them and post it themselves. Failing that, feel free to cut and paste this.
  25. You make that sound like a bad thing!
