  1. Who is redstripewhite?
  2. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  3. As a private company ML/NC do not have to disclose any such information. It is none of our business. Might as well as for the balance of MLs current account. Mancsaint
  4. Good luck to him in the future, he was a Saints supporter through and through, as was all his family, and I hope a sell clause was included. Mancsaint
  5. They do it every home home game and have done it everytime I've been. I think the police wait till the last Millwall supporter has got home in Glasgow before considering to let the away fans out. The carpark was almost totally empty of home fans when we got out. Two Hampshire police "officers" had absolutely no man management skills when they confronted an upset Saints fan because of the delay. They should have either walked away or spoken calmly to him not try and have a macho power struggle. Mancsaint
  6. Thinking about it and looking at thepictures, it's probably a 1950's or 60's product, even later. Mancsaint
  7. Lithuania is well know as a hive of fraudulant activity...barge pole comes to mind. Looks like it's plastic coated and wouldn't think it was invented then. Mancsaint.
  8. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/article6981621.ece Fonte is ours, look under dead certs. Mancsaint
  9. Very strange that I contacted David the other day to ask why the online system didn't have a way of picking an individual seat and be able to get a view of the pitch from any given seat, FC Basel have this system and it's great. David replied that the system was being improved and that a software update was some months down the line and hey presto ....a survey. I'm not taking any credit for the initiative. Mancsaint
  10. The same happened with me at Orient and after chasing my ticket for over an hour they rang Saints Ticket Office to confirm I had one and issued a duplicate less than 10 minutes before KO. Didn't help with Orient having 2 ticket offices that didn't coordinate with each other. How come I heard on Radio Essex in the commentary that we only had 1500 at the Colchester game? Mancsaint
  11. This will be fun, at least we and they will be able to tell the difference by the colour of their sox. Mancsaint
  12. No, it was MW before it was AP actually. Mancsaint
  13. Correct, a decade is a full ten years from any given point in time. The noughties is 2000 to 2009, ten complete years. From the point when we went from BC to AD it takes to the end of year 2000 to go through two millenia, not 1999. Mancsaint
  14. Absolutely true. One our first birthday we have lived for 1 year therefore only on our tenth birthday will we have lived for a decade. Hence one century ends at midnight at the end of the 100th year and the next century starts then. We should have celebrated the start of the new millenium at midnight on 31st December 2000 but did so when we went from 1999 to 2000 because it sort of seemed right, but it wasn't. Mancsaint
  15. Not the promised land, except for players and agents. ML & NC are happy we are winning in L1 and that we will continue to progress, as SFC is an investment, with the prospect of a good profit some time in the future when we are sold, God forbid. If we get into the EPL it will just mean I can't afford to go to the number of games I do at the moment. Mancsaint
  16. +1 Mancsaint
  17. Have to agree with all comments regarding not heading for the EPL. A league of overpaid prima donnas where the "top four-five" teams only think it's their God given right to get into Europe and have budgets that make that essential, look at the panic at Liverpool at the moment. I want to be in a competition where there is some chance of each team winning, not where 15 teams are cannon fodder for 5 teams. Long live the Championship and below. Mancsaint
  18. Recently spent time in Basel,Switzerland and saw many Liebherr cranes around the city plus saw quite a few on my trips through Alsace and the Black Forest. Took photos of most and I almost had a permanent grin. My Swiss non football mate was totally perplexed. Mancsaint
  19. My Dad left Wembley 5 minutes before the end in 1966 because he had bad feet. I never forgave him, for leaving early that is, not for having bad feet. Mancsaint
  20. It was fantastic on the Saintplayer and yes it makes me well up when I hear it that way, at SMS or away games and I'm a 62 year old blubberer when it happens. I want a repeat on the 26th when I next go to SMS. Mancsaint
  21. The OS has address as, as FP no longer hold the stadium naming rights : Southampton FC, The St. Mary's Stadium, Britannia Road, Southampton, Hants. SO14 5FP Mancsaint
  22. I had 300 shares and when I bought them I immediately wrote to Lloyds Registry to tell them I didn't ever want a dividend. I just want to have a little bit of my beloved club. I would gladly have lost more just to have the club where we are now....a phoenix. Mancsaint
  23. I have a share in Unser Bier, cost 300sfr, as they had a share issue recently to assist in moving to bigger premises. It is a cooperative and the dividend is paid annually by way of a night of, drink as much as you can, at the brewery. Ueli Bier comes from klein (small) Basel, across the river, and is "exported", so they say, to Basel itself. I think Shure Chicken Balti Pies I had in the prem days when we played Bradford away were brilliant, couldn't stop at one.
  24. Judy Flynn the actress, sat infront of her at The Dell and she admitted Saints were her team. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0283512/
  25. I had problems with the online signup, somehow got the message "Your bank does not accept Direct Debits", I thought Nationwide would. Sent email to to SFC and quick reply to advise them when they could ring me, here in Switzerland, told them anytime Wednesday and hey presto fixed at 3pm. Now for the acid test in reception quality.
