  1. i think that the eastleigh talks may have been opened, with a view to influencing suthampton city council to support there plans for the area or they will be off, and if they don't get the answers that they want then off to Jackson's Farm we will be headed. either way i think that we are being drip fed information by some people who have the clubs future at heart. I don't not think that we can lose this one.
  2. *cough*train platform*cough*
  3. i have seen the pictures from the planning application, very impressive and great opportunity to develop the site for other activities after it's finished. Could be a proper Southampton Village type development. Expect American Wharf to come off of the market at some point in the future.
  4. /\ yes i remember that, funny. what was that brighton forum that had a name and shame board detailing why certain posters had been banned. we should hhave one, where members could throw rotten tomatoes at them. start with leftback praps.
  5. How about Jamie Redknapp, only able to play every other week, when we signed him it was a condition! Good player in his day but how disuptive was that decision to our relegation season. I am a firm believer that Harry came to SMS to make a few quid out of the club's relative success. When he realised that RL was not playing balll, he thought f it and stuck to players nf his mates agent's books, just like his son Jamie. Kerchinng
  6. '' to walk at some point, hasn't the nouse to last the distance, only on there to remind the older rockers that ha is still alve. Has he got a 'best of..' due out next year?
  7. Can't beleive that Fat Matt is not at the top of people's lists! And world champion who stated really took the **** Bogart (sp) at Chelsea.
  8. So, if I said that I honestly do not know leftback personally, when in fact I do, what would be true? I do know leftback personally or I do not know leftback personally?
  9. Hufton, http://ticketing.mytrainticket.co.uk/journey Get the price down by purchasing a Network Railcard. On this journey alone it will almost pay for itself.

  10. ...driving up my arse. .....children what's that sound everybody look what's goin down
  11. Come on Dog. I am not a gambler but when in the past I have had a little flutter it has always ended in failure. No comebck on you, it's just that I have a tenner whh i will only spend on beer otherwise that I am willing to risk, maybe e/w but am willing to have a little bit of fun with you on this. I'll even promise to give all (if any) of my winnings to charity, of your choosing. PM perhaps?
  12. I read that and thought you said you'd seen him not wearing a COAT!

    History

    Absolutely dates are only markers of the exact chronological position in history. It should be added that in reverse you can pick any year in history and research it, you can do this in any village church. You don't have to be in the middle of a field in Naseby. Having said that, this is a great timeline of the English Civil War: http://www.historyonthenet.com/Chronology/timelinecivilwar.htm Last entry says a lot about how far we have moved on, although I am sure some on here would bring back public execution tomorrow if you don't keep an eye on them. One thing I will say about the democratic system that came after that particular war, at least there is no way that any nutters can slip through the net. ;-)

    History

    This Thursday is an excellent opportunity to get a tiny glimpse of history. History is punctuated by wars, not just the big ones either, some vey very interesting 'battles' have shaped our society. Watching a program tonight reminded of us how women have become empowered. First they fed and clothed our grandparents whilst the menfolk went off to fight for freedom, and then when their husbands and sons did not come home, they fought on for their just rewrds in an unfair system, iirc it was late in the twenties when 'they' finaly realised that dream, 'they' being only the women who were over 31 AND only then only if they were married. The lesson that we can learn from just that one little snippet is that war is such an irony; nations send their strongest, fittest and most needed off to fight and leave a vast void which is inevitably filled by womenfolk, imho it is the strength within a nations women that wins wars, after all it is from women that our next generations come from. History is everywhere that you look, seriously, next time you are stood in Mayflower Park have a read of the plaque near the gate, this is where some very large parts of the US begantheir lives.
  16. which bit is incorrect : guest of honour? matching funds raised for charity?
  17. ...........................................
  18. get eaten alive by midgets.
  19. 132. when we beat a team 3-2 ie we 'won three two'
  20. Is it Wen Jiaboa?
  21. 130. £. how much tickets will cost by the time we reach the premier league, plus booking fee.
  22. Maybe leftback has made him sit up and listen, imh he is learning and he is learning pretty quickly considering his background. This was a lot of people's problem with Rupert Lowe; he didn't appear to learn about the fans and what this club mans to us.

    Dilema

    Top man Colin, I am really please for you and your fiance. We should not measure ourselves by what we get, we should measure people by what they give and it sounds to me that you are very close to giving your heart to a very lucky young lady. Use work as an excuse to stay if you must but reading between the lines of your posts on this topic I can see love coming to the fore.
  24. On a serious not they do have 2 cathedrals with an interesting story to tell. And they have a motoring museum.
  25. Weston, you don;t seriously believe that leftback is mark dennis do you? Seriously, not unless he has a ghost writer working for him and has been trained in industrial epionage.
