Lighthouse

Or John Knox from Stenhousemuir.

I was thinking more along the lines of 'Boring Prehistoric Hole in the Ground' to reflect the vibe of the town.

They really should rename s*****horpe.

Harry Redknapp on SSN reminding me of the Hispanic maid on Family Guy. "No, no. Meeser Aguero is no here."

To what? If I were Mike Ashley I would take £30m and laugh my arse off for several days. I think if Newcastle sold Carroll for £30m+ they would be a tad more ambitious than a couple of million for a League 1 forward.

Here's Sauber's effort. Another high nose.

Wonder if anyone is having a medical at Blackpool today.

Just heard from a very reliable source that Saints have had an offer for Cheltenham striker Wes Thomas accepted. The fee is apparently around £450k. This is apparently the player being unveiled at Staplewood later. Anyone know much about him? I completely made that up. Same as any of the mongs on 606, so can we please stop posting rumours from there and claiming 606 is a source. It isn't. It's a f**king rumour network where anyone can post anything.

You mean Fonte who is infact pronounced 'Font'? I hope not.

Personally I wouldn't want to risk Saints going under for all of that. Yes winning an FA Cup is nice, but at the end of the day it's just 1 day out. a 2-2 draw at home to an ageing Milan side is hardly exciting either. We once drew 2-2 at Highbury, easily as difficult a game, probably tougher.

Contract expires in 2012. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11747_6712740,00.html

I'd bet a million pounds and a testicle we don't sign Beattie. Infact if I had to bet my wedding veg on something I'd bet we don't sign anyone at all today.

Such a shame that in 6 months it will be completely obsolete.

I mentioned this to Baj last week. My idea was also to have a 'post of the day' box at the top of each forum. If you wanted to take it to another level, you could also have post and poster of the month, depending on who gets the most 'likes' on their posts.

A home tie against Crawley if we'd beaten them. Who said we could never get to the final?

I had a though on this matter whilst on the train to todays game. Let's say Saints wanted to rest some first team players for whatever reason. They should release a story on the OS like this, the morning of the match: Saints Hit by Freak Injury Crisis Southampton look to be without no less than 9 first team players for todays fixture against xxxxxx after a sudden bout of injuries to the squad. Adam Lallana is in hospital having his testicles untwisted after attempting too many step overs in training. Rickie Lambert is unwell after having too many beans on his breakfast. Richard Chaplow is busy getting a hair cut. Morgan Schneiderlin is on strike. Jose Fonte is suffering from back spasms after a particularly energetic sex session with someone elses missus. Frazer Richardson is suffering spasms after an energetic sex session with someone elses missus and Lee Barnard is away filming another remake of Mean Machine. It would be 2 fingers up to the FA/football league. Whoever. We could then challenge them to prove the players weren't legitimately injured.

I think wind up merchants go through several phases. First it's an oppinion. Then it's an obsession. Then it's funny. Then it's annoying. Then it's so old it's funny again. Then it's beyond funny again and just tiresome. You seem to have gone through all of these phases and now I haven't got a clue what you are. I'm so confused, I'm going to crawl into the cupboard under the stairs and rub marmalade into my nipples. I hope you're pleased with yourself.

Great effort from the team today. Can't really say any of them had a bad game, although a couple weren't at their best. Agree that Butters, Harding and Morgan were all excellent but my MOTM has to be Chaplow. Not just for a belter of a goal, but also a great battling display in the middle. We were the better team first half, no doubt about it. I was just standing there feeling disappointed that we had nothing to show for our efforts when Chaplow scored a belter. I went bananas. Second half... Well we all saw that coming a mile off but we can still take heart from the fact that a) we were the better side for an hour, and b) their goals came from momentary lapses of concentration. Other than that we were seldom too stretched at the back. Fonte had Gibson in his pocket and Bart, dodgy kick aside, put in a very mature performance. Not too many negatives really. A few spanners in the Utd end including marine distress flare man again, waving that thing around like a caveman who's just discovered fire. Nani too. He is a diving sh*t. Also im not going to sit here and pretend I'm glad were out, concentrate on the league etc. I'd have loved to have gone through but that's life. Onwards and upwards. COYS!!!

Christ I hope that's true. They can't even be bothered to turn up and support their own club, it would be pretty funny if they started turning up in the away end at SMS instead.

Didn't mention Bridge either. I doubt it's anything personal, he just named a few Saints youth products off the top of his head. I might say, "Utd have brought some decent players through their youth set up like Scholes, Neville and Beckham." Doesn't mean I hate Ryan Giggs.

Can't we just lock all the Austin threads now? This has got to be one of the most drawn out transfers since Skacel signed. The only difference is that actually happened. Threads like this just make Saints fans look like muppets.

Ferrari became the first team to show their hand with their 2011 challenger this morning. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the F-150 (No, not the Ford pick-up truck). http://www.vivaf1.com/blog/?p=5451&cpage=1 The main differences appear to be the exhausts being moved and the nose being higher than the F10.

Good luck to him, he always seemed like a top bloke and an excellent role model. Never gave up trying even when he wasn't playing that well, which to be honnest was the majority of his career. A small part of me is glad though, it's another one of Lowe's relics we've managed to offload. If we could only get rid of Pulis and Forecast.

Second the "Holloway is a muppet" and "this rule is a joke" notions. Maybe they will fine Pompey for fielding a weakend side all season.

Yes he was young, he was playing in a sh*t team, badly managed and signed on a free. In spite of all these excuses, he was still gash. FWIW I'd actually class Saganowski as being 'very average' that season along with Surman, DMG, Skacel, Wotton and Lallana. Not good, but not as awful as some of the others. Kelvin, Cork and Size are the only players I'd actually say were any good that season, but certainly not Smith.
