We are not on the rise we had two good seasons with good players who want to move for more money and more chance of Silverware

I think you are quite right Spurs will probably offering more money. Although he was great for us he did have injury problems so I will not be too upset if he goes to Spurs

David Burnside FA Cup 1963 v Nottm Forest to level the score at 3 3 after being 3 0 down with 15 mins to go The replay at White Hart Lane when we won 5 0 probably the best game I ever saw the atmosphere was tremendous with 30000 plus Saints Supporters there Then of course there was Terry Paines goal at Leyton O to get us to Div 1 and Bobby Stokes' one in 1976

Probably not but he was when they won the Champions League

It cant be easy going from T20 to four day cricket Middx are rubbish at T20 but have decent 4 day bowlers which we dont. I am really going to enjoy myself at Lords tomorrow have not seen them there for ages

Of course you are right but since the 1960s when the maximum wage was abandoned large city Clubs have had an unfair advantage and with the PL and CL this unfortunately is going to continue

I agree we are never going to be a regular top 6 team but definitely a top ten team teams like Man U Man C Liverpool Arsenal Chelsea have large fan bases and stadia and have a history over my lifetime of winning Trophies not only domestic but also European

Spurs are a top 6 Team pay very good wages cannot see why anyone could object to him going there

Liverpool with out doubt one of the most successful clubs over my lifetime with supporters everywhere

I think that we are a bigger club than we were in 1966 I think we are at present very high in the second tier of PL Clubs

I agree with what you are saying but at the time Chivers was a lot better than Channon and we got Frank Saul in return

I remember that happening one Christmas was ****ed off as I always thought Martin Chivers was a really good player for Saints helped us enormously to get to Div 1 in harness with Terry Paine

Used to be taken to Weston Shore as a toddler in the 1940s after a trip on the Floating Bridge

So they had more success than us last season and the season before that and the season before that and the season before that etc So Cylne is likely have a lot more success there than at St mary's if he goes there

Liverpool are a massive club with a fine history and great fans and pay more wages people sometimes forget that playing football is Cylne's job and if he wishes to go there and earn more money that is fine by me. He is likely to have a lot more success there than at St mary's I would have thought

I dont find it bizarre in the least we have some really experienced batters look what Ervine did last night probably won the game for us

Thats good though I would not expect to win many of those

Why/

Although Jim played well my man of the match was Mel Blyth always underated

So will some of the bollix posted yesterday ever see the light of day again

Three points is great especially as Spurs lost

I just do not see any point of it

I am happy if we finish 7th and I dont want to be in the Europa Cup but I do want to win the Fa or League Cup

Saw Mings the other week at Portman Road he was not that good not a PL FB yet the local fans would be surprised if he left at the moment

and not to go 1 0 down within 5 mins
