Get well Peter

KP that's an IPad for you . Re spelling oh and a couple glasses of red wine

As this is a stupid thread in my opinion then I would say bring back dean Hammond

South Africa is like Northern Ireland . There are places you just don't venture in to but majority of Northern Ireland s excellent to visit as is South Africa

Bloody hell said there were so many . Dave Armstrong and Chris marsden footballing genius .can I add ken Monkou

Batman did you take a redundancy package From the navy in the end ?

Sergei if he did that then fine . But a mate and I went to watch saints up there and after the game we tried to speak to him . He told us to f*** off and had no time for away fans . He had to minders with him . All we were after was his autograph and have few words with him . So you will appreciate I have no time for that donkey

Pap I think they mail has over egged the situation but it is not a safe country there is tribal conflict in the Soweto areas and then there is the issue of black on white . I only can refer to what was happening in the early nineties so have no up to date knowledge on the situation there now

Pap this is not a new concept murder has been rife in South Africa for twenty odd years . Some army medic friends went out on a tour of duty in the early 90's they were horrified on what they were seeing . Many parts of South Africa near Cape Town were no go areas . If you strayed into these areas accidentally and you were white then you were not coming out alive . And this could be taking the wrong road at certain crossroads . True story . Not pleasant at all

I interviewed nick Holmes . One of the nicest on people you could ever want to meet a total unsung hero

Given the current themes on saints players . I was just wondering who you thought were your favourite good honest players who did a job for us . They never set the world on fire but we took them as our favourites . I have 5 Richard Dryden Neil Heaney Trevor hebberd Mel Blythe And the the late Steve mills . In fact the more I think about it I could name 30 quite easily Manny andrusheskil The lad sealy who broke his leg at crystal palace .

There are so many players you could mention. Especially with my advancing years the Hugh fishers tommy Jenkins on me head tommy , it's good to see it does matter how long or short we have been supporting saints we each have so many favourites more recently dream Hammond et al . But what is important we all have our memories whether we are young or old and we al can identify with players who have had a big impact on our life's over the years , I liked Richard Dryden . Not our greatest player but an honest lad who I got to know quite well . This just goes to confirm the spirit of Southampton is alive and well

Difficult to say who my all time favourite is John Sydenham Martin chivers Micky Chandon Nick Holmes Ron Davies Dave Watson Tim flowers MLT SRL Barry Horne Jimmy Gabriel Gerry gurr But the one I guess that epitomised the battling saints has to be Brian o'neill

Morgan is not wanting out . Where does this **** come from . Based on some poster on here should we not start a thread titled will the last one out please turn off the lights

Russell brand is a total ****t and not even funny either

Nothing to do with saints but this is the lounge . The mirror have spun this story and as someone has already said . It's only a loan and he is a shareholder . Enough said .i wonder if he has an interest clauses added to the loan ?

I believe the English football teams coaching system is fatally flawed . Do they still use the Howard wilkinson rationale or has Trevor booking taking it to an even new lower level . I have often wondered why so many donkeys have been used game after game . Now I realise that there is no creative coaching ethos through the national team set up . That's why players from clubs like Southampton never get picked for the full side anymore . It revolves round the top 6 clubs only . It's about time the national coaches took off their blindfolds and start picking the likes of lambert etc . Huddle and vegetables liaised to take an enigmatic player to the World Cup but instead took their drinking buddies. English national football is totally crap unless there is a fundamental review then we will never get close to winning the world or euro cup at any level

Allow anyone in for top of the range health care. And cheese rolling

Care to explain further

can we have a poll to see who is the most negative poster Alpine or Barry Sanchez

Breaking News. Iread it on here first. But in the Know poster states we will be relegated due to our new shirt having a negative psychological impact on the players and fans alike we have not started the season yet. Alpineyou come out with some priceless **** sometimes but this one is a gem

Is this shirt for real . Or someone's idea of a joke ?

For information the local governmentpension scheme is not self funded , The employer pays in approximately 18.5% per employee while in the case of teachers the employer will pay 14.1% per year and in terms of money this is £2961 as a new teacher and above £14100 for a head teacher per year So it is definately not self funded

Can we assume poyet has lost his appeal . That was bloody quick as they have appointed Garcia as his replacement . Normally you get a minimum of 14 days to appeal a dismissal . I guess Brighton have come to a compromise arrangement

Oh and the Dumfries and Galloway ruling will cost upto 500 million in Scotland alone in back pay not including legal costs according to various experts
