I see Gashton has started the new season as he finished the last.

...and how he started it.

...and he finished the previous one.

I guess hes only here still cos no club is interested in forking out a fortune for nowt

ManYoo always start slow.

This result is funny as fook considering the mutual masturbation in the media over the summer, but lets not go over the top.

Here's hoping we can do the same tomorrow.

I like this one too. At the time, KA114 was the worlds only flying Mossie (in the last month the Canadians have got VR796 flying too; sadly still no Mossie in the UK)

I went to the same uni as Chadwick. Who knew...

Apparently the two lancasters are doing a couple of displays with XH558 over the next few weeks too. That will be a sight as well.

I remember a few years ago when back in Soton standing in my parents garden on a Sunday afternoon when I head a sound getting louder that could only have been Thumper. Sure enough, she went straight over our house in Swaything. After she has gone, I turned round, and the neighbours over every house in both directions has all come out as well.

Then a couple of years ago I was sat in the park next to the Royal Yacht Club in Cowes on the weekend of the Bournemouth air show when she went past again heading east to west to Bournemouth between the island and Lepe / Calshot. Amazing sight. (XH558 went past on the same route as we boarded the Red Funnel ferry to come back to Soton)

There really is no sound like a Merlin. Imagine what entire squadrons of Lancasters taking off sounded like...

I really hope the CAA give Just Jane flight clearance when her restoration is finished.

When you put it like that, I fell a lot better already

I'd feel a helluva lot better with another CB.

Hmmmmm......

Has a lot to live up to, then...

Cork would be one of the first names on my team sheet, not only as the beating heart of what

will be a team of strangers, but also because he warrants it - at least based on his performances

in the latter part of the season when Wanyama, altho fit again, couldn't get back in the side after

his injury.

Yep.

That's how i see it too, the Morgan situation just makes it a multitude of times worse.

Wanyama is a great defensive shield in certain games but would hate to go into season without as accomplished a performer as Cork.

Yep.

Looks to be signing either today or tomorrow.

Yeah, whatever.

This is turning into Skacel proportions, just like every damn transfer involving us does.

I am laughing at the stupidity of those that are posting "Dont need Cork, we've got Morgan + others"

Agreement or not, buying club needs to first meet his valuation. No way he has a deal letting him go for a sum far under his value.

This.

The reaction to us selling a bit part player, likely to be more bit part this year, is pathetic. He's fine, does a good job as a squad player. That's about it.

Christ, your level of drivel gets worse by the day...

Utter, utter insanity, especially with French Cry-Baby's future still in the balance.

Questioning RoKo's judgement for the first time...

What a w**nky thread.

Contract to Corky, Morgan and his throbbing Organ to Exit.

I would kick this f**king circus into touch.

We have Taider, Davis, VW, etc...

Why not just give Corky a contract and tell The Judas Argie that for 10m plus Vlad the Impaler and they can have the cry-baby ?

Gardos is signing today, so back down.

Is he fit or not ?

Regardless, we need another one. He is unproven, I dont trust Fonte for a whole season, and having to play Jos or Yoshi doesnt bear thinking about.

Singing a bunch of songs about Lallana and making the banner are the best ways to show Adam that we are really hurt by the fact that he has left. It will massage his enormous ego and tell everyone watching that we aren't as happy with his replacement as we were with him in the team.

 

If that's what you want everyone to think, go ahead and sing a song for a player that doesn't even play for us anymore.

This.

Going around in circles again, and Lovren sold.

P*ss-poor management.

So, we are still woefully short at CB.

Will be our undoing again this season, just like 2004/5....

I only passed on what he said.

F**k me, you all should grow up a bit and try to get past the foot-stamping phase...

We've got a Romanian Steaua Bucharest fan in my office. Just asked him what he thinks of Gardos.

He reckons he's sh*te. too slow, crap in the air despite his size, makes too many mistakes.

Has Brendan Rodgers started congratulating him on doing his shoes up this morning ?

It looked dodgy from the moment LawrieMac and Keith Burkinshaw strolled round the pitch hand-in-hand before KO, espeically as a Saints win would have kept Spurs in League One.
