  1. Well informed reply. However I do wonder why an industry that represents approx 0.02% of our annual revenue should potentially lead to a No Deal Brexit which most informed people seem to think will have a significant adverse affect on our ongoing economy.
  2. I have been following this thread with interest as I try to understand both sides of the argument. With regard to Fisheries, I am sympathetic to the idea that we have control over our waters in line with international arrangements. In practical terms, however, how will this work if French, Dutch, Spanish etc fishermen decide to continue fishing? Are gunboats (if available and not focussing on illegal immigrants) sent out to deal with the matter, with the possibility of an international incident? How will those UK based fishermen who sell their catch into European markets deal with the expected blockade of European ports when they try to transport their produce into the European market? Further on, as and when the Scots get Independence and decide to remain in the EU, will this not 'muddy the water'(!!) in respect to fishing rights? Interested in views (from both sides)
  3. 14/20 pour moi
  4. Coventry 8-2 and also 5-5?
  5. Dave Maclaren was the Wolves 'keeper that day and he signed for us not long after. Not the best signing.
  6. I can go back further than this to 18 September 1965 when we played a newly relegated Wolves team in Div 2 Wolves were doing OK and we were a goal down within 5 minutes. However from there on in every shot at goal went in and I think we were 5-2 up at HT and scored our ninth with 15-20 minutes left with the crowd shouting 'We want 10' . If my memory serves me correct we hit the woodwork at least twice in the closing stages so nearly reached the magical double figure. A few of us went up to Molineux for the reverse fixture when Dave Webb scored on his debut. We then went undefeated for the rest of the season and won our first ever promotion to the top division.
  7. Sorry to hear this. Campbell Forsyth was a big reminder of my early days at The Dell
  8. Did anyone read it yesterday? A very positive piece on The Saints if a more IT savvy person can access it
  9. Selina Scott did a piece about him on the Sunday Times Not a nice man by her account and a bit of a sexual predator.
  10. Rupert says that 'If a deal is not good enough, you walk away' What happened with the Tommy Forepast, Augustin Delgado deals then?
  11. So only people with loud voices will be allowed into female toilets??🤣
  12. Only 3 in the history of the USA!!!
  13. Lets bring goal machine Carillo back🥴
  14. Worry to me is that Bournemouth started very well last season, looking forward to European qualification etc, then suffered a number of injuries and this contributed to their relegation,
  15. Salisu, another Augustin Delgado?
  16. If my memory serves me correctly Newcastle was the last home game we played at SMS in front of our raucous support. Djneppo got sent off and McCarthy saved a penalty only for Valery to have an aberration near the end which prevented us from hanging on for a creditable 0-0 draw.
  17. Another very decent performance from Vestegaard. Good header and one fantastic goal saving block. It seems the new hairstyle is playing dividends. Difficult to know where the enigmatic Salisu will fit in (if ever fit!!)
  18. Thought he was 8.5 possibly 9/10 today
  19. So no chance of increasing stadium capacity then???????
  20. What are relegation odds?
  21. Ralph to Man Utd (we get a load of cash as Ralph has a long term contract) we get Poch back or have a crack at another Germanic Manager. However prefer to keep Ralph. As an aside I could see JWP back here as a Manager in 10 years time.
  22. Didnt he get a yellow for a foul on Bednerak?
  23. Agree. He seems to have pace and a physical presence. Just a tad concerned about his full on tacking style which could end up with free kicks/penalties or a host of cards a la Romeu.
  24. Talking about feeder clubs, I have always thought that a link up with Le Havre might do us some good. Twin cities (or at least used to be) and Le Havre have never been much above French Second Division but have produced some decent players through their ranks over the years.
  25. Some suggestion that Josh is on £17/£18k a week ie almost £1m per annum. Wonder what Doncaster are contributing? His first game at Pompey tomorrow?
