Indeed. Good job we'll be sliding down to 17th soon.

Rules and Cheats FC don't belong in the same sentence (unless the word "broken" is thrown in too). Talking about Chinny keeping Cheats FC alive long enough to get his grubby hands on the remaining parachute payments, using a succession of gullible morons with dirty money - I'm a bit confused: didn't Corpse say (and I paraphrase) that the parachute money is ring-fenced, and that Cheats FC is so closely monitored by the FL that it's impossible for dirty money to be used to keep the cesspit alive?

It certainly is, Torres. They were allowed to bring in players when they had their embargo last season.

Those who bought its at its peak in February last year must be kicking themselves. A 2 cent stock sounds like quite a bargain, but not if it drops to 0.2 cent a year later. If Cala is Handy Andy's first choice, I can't wait to find out about his plan B consortium.

Translation: "We need £11 million (clean or filthy, we're not fussy) from some sucker in order to keep the cesspit of a club on life support long enough for Chinny to get his hands on the final parachute payments."

And also, why is AWAY in capitals?

Yes, but those threads are composed almost entirely of crap. Ours is full of witty, insightful and intelligent posts about crap. A subtle but important difference.

Wait, wait, over there ... Corpse has his hand up. Oh.

Would you mind telling that to Corpse? On second thoughts, I suspect corpses don't like hearing about vultures.

With the fancy upgrades to TSW server last year, we can now insert those small number thingies that go to the low right. Look at this: N2O That alone makes the annual £5 worth every penny.

Don't worry Nick. Once Chinny has his hands on the last parachute payment, it'll be game over for Cheats FC, and the wolves will tear the rotten carcass to shreds. Patience, my friend, patience.

Me too.

Very true. Does that fact just warm the cockles of your heart?

"I don't just expect to be promoted this year, I want us to be champions. When we are promoted to the Premier League I don't want people to think of us as immediate candidates for relegation. I see Southampton as a top-six Premier League club. Would I pay a player £100,000 or even £200,000 a week? Not if we were in the Premier League with a 32,000 capacity stadium. But if we were in the Champions League and had re-developed the ground to 50,000 then I might consider it." Nicola Cortese, 2011

After extensive searching, I have successfully found the following: Not anything, nothing, nonexistence, nullity, zero, nihility, diddly-squat, zip, zilch, nada.

His first name wasn't Corp, and last name Ho, by any chance?

May 1976 aside, surely one of Saints greatest wins ever? Lose (or even draw) and we almost certainly would've gone down.

This.

Oi! You're too quick with that gavel. I'll raise it to 30. If it's good enough for Luton ....

Certainly is....

I loved Buccaneer when I was kid. Brilliant pirate/treasure game. Sadly, long out of production. If anyone has an old one in the attic they'd be willing to sell me ....

But as with the vast majority of all persons who lived and died in the first century, he does not appear in the records of the Roman people." http://aheathensday.com/2011/08/bart-d-ehrmans-forged-a-review.html
