  1. If I was to tell you that my family have been members of the caravan club for the past 80 years does this mean we can all have free accommodation and pitch up where ever we like as part of a persecuted minority Likewise travelling showmen/circusses have been around for many years but seem to leave their pitches in a reasonable condition## Why cant others?
  2. Doubt that that game could ever be beat for atmosphere Like another poster, the abiding memory for me wouuld be the smell of tobacco and the mistiness surrounding the Dell during evening games due to the comparatively low Lux rating of the floodlights another memorable game was the 5-4 win over Leeds in the League Cup when the lights went out and Derek Reeves scored his 5th at around 22.20 (from a 1930 kick off) Didnt get home until nearfly midnight and my Mum was worried sick (no mobile phones in those days) going back to the Forest 3-3 draw, there used to be a man in a white coat, walking round the running track, dispensing Hot Bovril from a tank on his back. He became so engrossed in the game that he failed to notice someone had turned the tap on at the back of his tank and he bercame immersed in a pool of hot, sticky, bovine liquiid!!
  3. Wher's Corps Ho these days? Will be intersting to see his list of prospective new signings Expect at least £20m
  4. I live some way from the Saints pub in Millbrook but could still hear the announcer's (presumably Mike O) voice Assume the sound must have been 'full on' in the immediate vicinity
  5. Johnny Done that. No good
  6. After a power cut our electric shower unit seems not to be working ie only cold water passes through the system. Anyone know if there are any simple things I can check on before assuming the unit is broken? I have checked circuit board is all OK Thanks for any help
  7. If only t'were true!! Doubt if they could afford forecast tho
  8. I also sffered from campylobacter in Feb 2008 i think from a chicken meal at St Marys!"!! Never felt so ill and really made me realise what people who have dysentry have to go thro
  9. In my opinion not only do MLT and Ricky Lambert look very similar from a distance wearing the No 7 shirt but, apparently, they both live in North Baddesley. Bit of useless info on a slow news day!!
  10. Dont forget Dave Maclaren!!
  11. Perry Groves anyone\?
  12. £125 a head!! Fair play to all those going Enjoy
  13. Is there any way I can access coverage of the Saints game on Monday's Local (6.30) BBC News?
  14. Problem with all these injunctions, the rumours and inuendoes sculling around could easily implicate completelry the wrong person and make their life a misery. Apart from 'Citizen Cane' outed by a political rival in the film, you never hear of Newspaper Editors getting caight up in scandal Perhaps they all live blameless lives
  15. Thanks Any figs on Saints away numbers?
  16. Presume corporate and Walsall didnt sell out? Brilliant atmosphere though
  17. Had a pain in the backside Pompey fan banging on about how goor their away support has been this season Are their any stats avaliable to compare ours v theirs?
  18. Apparently they have sold almost 8,000 season ticketrs which, if true, is not bad going to be fair
  19. At Xmas Cortese did say that they were looking to do business in the summer rather than in January as there are more decent players available and prices are more reasonable
  20. I like the idea of the 'Sporting Complex' as promoted by Hull Would it work financially tho? In principle you could see the Liebherrs buying the adjacent industrial estate, the Gasometers and part of the Itchen waterfront over time, and subject to availability/price etc Would be great for the city and region
  21. Anyone have an idea of how many season tickets pompey have sold to date?
  22. I think you may be talking about Donald Gosling. If so his yacht used to call into Soton for several years until they goy too busy for yachtie type vessels. i once blagged a bottle of champers off the crew
  23. Would be nice if that nice Mr/Mrs Corps Ho could offer some insight into whats going on at fratton Pk and also offer his congratulations re our own success this season
  24. There was a pompey fan on their site who said that they were the only side to stay behind after lossing a Cup Final (to Chelsea) to applaud the winners!! Selective memories or what!1
  25. Big news for tomorrow Pulis and Forecast to make their long awaited debuts v Walsall and the team will be led out by Messre Branfoot and Lowe in a spirit of reconciliation
