It seems silly, I agree. Then again, the ref should have booked him when he took his shirt off when scoring for Donny vs. Boro just after Luey passed away, so it seems petty to make a big deal out of it.

Nope, miles better than the Chav dinner suit of T-shirts like the one above, Union Jack shorts and white Nike Trainers.

You gotta love British defence procurement...

The US Navy are only embarassing the UK govenmenr because they want us to have operational carriers ASAP and they want to cancel the F-35B completely, I reckon. The UK government shouldnt have cancelled the p1154 in the Sixties, it would probably still p*ss all over the F-35B. The F-35B concept simply doesnt work (carrying all the lift fans around as dead-weight during combat) -
Best summer wear : Saints 125th anniversary home shirt Khaki bermudas Timberland Heritage boat shoes Not some Vicky Pollard-inspired mong uniform.

You have to sing OWTSGMI very, very slowly You have to be able to put up a wide range of statistical data at any behest to show how Saints are so ******* brilliant even if they are on a 8 game run without a victory

WTF is "Italian Fit" ? Is the picture on the back so everyone sees it when you are running away ? Is there a fook-off great rock-torn hole down the side ? What a truly chav-tastic T-shirt.

You're right - fook it, let the prawn sandwich brigade fook off whenever they want.

Do I not like that. Anyways, its a t*ss-up between him and the Wally with the Brolly as to who was worst.

Story 1. Confirmed over weekend that we gave away 74 Harrier GR9s for about 15% of their value to the Yanks, and the MoD had a PR strategy for burying the story (pity they didnt get an NDA from the US Navy.....) Story 2. End of last week, story doing the rounds that the F35 purchase, now the disastrous F-35C was about to be changed back to the even more disastrous F-35B, because the cost of modifying PoW to CATOBAR was now standing at 2BILLION (more than the carrier itself if the in-serivce date hadnt been postponed by Camerloon), above 4 times the original estimate, then the US Navy steps in and tells the UK Government that the figure is a load of b*llocks, the job can be done for less than the original estimate and now the UK Government is staying with the F-35C. What a bunch of rank incompetent f**king amaterus. IMO: Make both carriers CATOBAR, ditch the F-35 altogether and buy Super Hornets. The Navy gets its airpower and credibility back, and we save enough money to get an additional couple of T45s.

I've been recently getting into the Ice Hockey league over here in Austria, having only seen Southampton Vikings once during my childhood. Ice hockey is a really good sport to watch, and I reckon if a rink can be built, the Vikings re-established, it could turn into a reasonably profitable enterprise. Its really sad that the funding cant be found, and I wonder why Sport England refused the grant (if they have a policy of only helping with inner city sh*tholes, maybe its time they should come and have another look at the state of Southampton) And its about f**king time Southampton City Council slapped down a moratorium on appartment block building.

Might as well buy their tickets and stay at home, then they'd have no traffic worries whatsoever.

And if they are disturbing other people's field of vision ?

I have always found the people leaving early to be utterly ridiculous. Going to see Saints costs the best part of 50 quid at least all-in-all, then to leave in the last 5 mins where everything can change is pathetic. Sitting in the traffic jam, in slience or listening to the moronic comments on Radio Solent from people who cannot string two words together, glowing in the aftermath of a good win, numb ambivalence at a draw, or suffering the pain of a costly defeat, is all part of the game of supporting Saints.
-
We might lose to Blackpool (personally, I am going for the draw) WHU might beat Peterboro (but then again, they could lose - Peterboro are one of those awkward bastard teams who if they turn up in right frame of mind, can beat anybody) WHU might beat Reading (personally, I think the opposite is far more likely) I would be very surprised if the "gap" is down to 3 points Saturday evening, but then again I think this whole thread is misplaced smug complacency... We have to keep doing our thing. End of.

Not even talking about us anymore. Totally fixated on the Peterborough game in hand and Reading next week. Very relieved at their comeback, seem convinced it heralds an 8-game winning streak.. -

Oh, jesus. What happened ? -
I am here, but very busy.

What a truly mental question. I am greedy. I want to see promotion with us thrashing them, and their relegation and subsequent extinction.
-
Not completely comfortable with that team. Too many changes for my liking.
-
Not only would you expect him to be hungry after recent lack of play and having to be patient on the bench, but he probably as the extra motivation of turning it on against his old team. Having said that, does any one remember the way James Beattie reacted when he scored against us the year we got relegated from the PL ?
