Are you suggesting that a League Cup win in 1987 is somehow not significant?

Just how good would we be if Gardos was fit?

Perhaps you should change your name to 'High Saint'.

It's a popular stereotype in the US that Brits all have bad teeth and they kind of have a point. The number of people I've seen with a mouth like a vandalised graveyard is disturbing. I'm not sure if it's poor diet, poor personal hygiene, a lack of dental care or combination thereof.

Speak for yourself. All this talk of y'all, Gas and color has me completely convinced. Howdy George, you have yourself a swell day.

I'd forgotten about that one. Just looked at the team we played that night; Davis, Chambers, Yoshi, Hooiveld, Fox, Davis, Cork, Gaston, Reed, Lee J Rod. I think it's fair to say we gained a bit of depth since then.

Our last win up there, that's our overall form. A bit confusing, point taken. Our visits to Sunderland since then. 06/07 - 1-1 Playoff season, in which Sunderland went on to win the Championship. Bale gets a last minute equaliser. 12/13 - 1-1 Puncheon gets a late equaliser to secure our safety in the Premier League. 13/14 - 2-2 Saints throw away a 2-0 lead earned by J Rod and Lovren 13/14 - 1-0 Cup defeat. Saints are terrible. 14/15 - 2-1 defeat. Having not conceded a pen all season, we let in 2. JWP is sent off.

I'm not sure this is what Sir Tim Berners-Lee had in mind.

That lasted all of 3 minutes. Personally I never held up any hope of Villa doing us a favour. They are sh*te and likely to get battered.

The 8-0 aside, they really are a bogey team for us. A couple of years ago they lost 7 of their first 8 games and in the other came within 2 minutes of winning at St Mary's. Our last win up there was January 2003, Beattie scored in a 1-0. Since then, 1W 4D 3L in the League and a cup defeat. Romeu in for Victor is the only change for me.

Sunderland have been terrible, even under BFS they were awful against Everton and Newcastle. Having said that, it's going to be a tough game and we never win up there. Victor suspended, I'd guess Romeu comes straight in along side Clasie.

Wouldn't say that was particularly true and I live in Crawley and go out drinking with a lot of cabin crew. In fact I can only think of 1 gay bar here. My impression is that a lot of the older guys with a bit more money tend to live in Brighton, whilst many of the younger guys live closer to Gatwick where it's cheaper and easier to get to work. However, even the ones who don't live there like going to Brighton for the 'gay scene' and the pride events etc. I'd say more than anything it's just a place to meet like minded people and nothing more sinister.

And Watford, although no two games are ever the same.

Probably a good thing given what he spent the rest of the money on.

Two points: 1. There are no doubt plenty which weren't reported but there were also plenty recorded which may have been false, so you would have to take both into account. 2. I just did a quick search for the demographics of gay people in the UK, which came up with 3.6m, roughly 6%, which seems reasonable. 6,000 'hate crimes' against 3.6m people is pretty much 1 in 600 people or less than 0.2% of the gay population. Hardly endemic of homophobia.

We've been through this, the stadium is big enough already.

Lol

We're 3-0 up against Tranmere on my stream.

Good shout, I'd forgotten that until you reminded me, pulled off a proper Banks/Pele for one of them.

No more hassle than any straight player and the associated tabloid gossip about which page 3 girl he is sleeping with. After a couple of days of 'OMG player X is gay', there is nothing really to report disproportional to any straight player. I'm sure Heat magazine would be fascinated to know who his boyfriend is but no more so than if it was some female model, singer, actress etc. I really don't think there is anything out there worth living a life of denial and sexual isolation over. Is it really worth wasting your life with a woman you don't love and can't satisfy in bed because your scared of a couple of idiots yelling, "oi pufta!" at a football game?

Bart saved one in the 6-0 at Molly, which might be the only pen he faced for us but I'm not sure on that.

The was an episode of South Park where they satirised a similar situation and had the word 'fag' changed in the dictionary from a homosexual to a douche bag on a motorbike. I think a lot of people just say gay out of habit from when they were at school. If someone says, "my car is being gay it won't start!" they aren't aiming any abuse at homosexuals but somehow that word has taken on a new meaning. It has become insulting without actually referring to someone's sexuality, a bit like fag. It would be good if people didn't use it like that and I personally don't but I think gay people need to recognise that in this context, 'gay' isn't referring to them.
