Lighthouse

I thought the two Christmas episodes were pretty good overall. A bit of the stupid 'fake accidents' stuff and some bad acting from Hammond, but overall pretty entertaining. Have to say I saw the Stig/Jesus thing coming on the second episode. Will be interesting to see how that develops.

He has played 17 games and started 8 of them.

I'd go along with that. As I've said, I wasn't at the game, so I can't really comment on his performance. I have seen the highlights a few times on the football league phone app. and his assists really weren't anything to write home about. A 5 yard pass to Alex for the first and a simple lay off to Chaplow for the second, which I'm not entirely sure he meant.

Brilliant signing. Next time you fancy a moan about how teams above us spend pennys whilst we spend millions, remember this one (and Dan Harding). A very shrewd bit of business, welcome aboard Chaplow! P.S. Please can everyone stop wasting my bandwith responding to Charlie Wayman. He is so obviously a sad, lonely retard who is desperate for attention and you're all giving it to him. Just don't respond FFS! Edit: Notice he spoke to Neal Trotman about the move. His loan at Oldham is up in January and PNE could definitely use the cash. Would be good to get him in as a long term replacement for Jaidi.

That game was in London, it's actually their away support.

For the year: 1. Lallana 2. Fonte 3. Barnard 4. Harding

Just goes to show how sh*t this league is. We've played very poorly this season and are still 5th with a game in hand over a couple above us. It's quite encouraging really. Adkins has done pretty well really. He's won something like 8 out of 12 home games to games since coming here. We just need to start doing the business on the road and get Rickie scoring and we'll be set.

With the exceptions of Solent uni and P&O, they are all large multinational compaines with branches in hundreds of cities across the world. Hardly a local connection. Can't see it being P&O as it's not really a local thing. People go TO Southampton to use ferries, so most of them aren't really going to be exposed to the publicity.

They weren't very good. Fuller - Scored 3 goals in 6 months for us, before being loaned out to Ipswich. I think part of the frustration was that he was the only replacement for Crouch, Phillips and Camara. It's not like people can predict the future. Should we all be raving about how great Pulis is because he is going to play for Real Madrid in 2015? Wright - He was just plain bad. You can say all you like about his attitude and effort, but he was crap. We released him, he went to Blackpool, couldn't get a game for love or money, was released again after just 1 season. Think he was last season playing for Croydon Athletic. BWP - Wasted a lot of chances, didn't score all that many goals and unlike Guly or Waigo, his build up play was terrible. Lazy and gave the ball away, a really bad recipe defensively. Puncheon - The booing of him was stupid, bit it really wasn't all that many people. I remember standing at the back of the Northam and seeing/hearing a lot of boos. It looks bad until you realise it's maybe only 1 or 2 dosen in a stand of 3 or 4 thousand. Guly - Didn't see yesterday, but I think he's pretty poor based on what I've seen already. He gives the ball away a fair bit and wastes a lot of chances. Effort and running are all well and good, but we need a player who can do more than that. Barnard any day for me. I never agree with people booing their own players (individually, but they got a good booing from me after the Brentford match), however there is a fairly understandable reason behind it.

Aren't you the guy who used to post pictures of boobs about 5 years ago?

Or if we got the backing of a major PC manufacturer. Then we could have, "The Dell St Mary's Stadium"

With a matching yellow away shirt of course.

Good to see we've finally cleared this up.

2 seasons in a row I've planned to go to this fixture but been stuck at work and missed the game. In contrast, I just made it to the Brenford game a couple of weeks ago. C'est la vie! I can still bask in the glory of 3 points.

Don't think I've ever been so happy to see Charlie Austin score.

If it stays like this, we go into 6th. 5 points off the top, 2 off 2nd and with games in hand over Weds and Udders. But then there is no point in telling you this. If Kelly Brook walked into your living room butt naked, you'd complain that she forgot to put the kettle on.

First League goal since we beat the Posh a month and 7 days ago.

A good ambassador for British sport, certainly, but a knighthood? He has been England captain, done lots of charity work etc. But what has he done that's truly great? Winning the champions league in 1999 is about the biggest achievement I can think of. Other than that he has lead England through 2 very mediocre world cups and been part of a very mediocre Real Madrid team.

I'd take £10m to be honnest. That amount reinvested in the squad should get us to the Premier League quite comfortably, regardless of the situation with the Liebherr family. That amount of cash would buy Le Fondre, Fryatt, Antonio and Danns 3 times over.

I'm sure there are a few odd players from around the world, doesn't mean it's universally popular. I've just had a flick through the BDO World Champions. There are a couple of Dutch blokes, a Kiwi and a moose f**ker. That's pretty much it. It's a bit like countries such as Jamaica competing in the winter Olympics. Yeah it's nice that they turn up, but we all know the medals are going to be divided up between the Alpines and North Americans. Anyway, bored with debating the legitimacies of darts now. If you like it, fill yer boots.

The flip side is that Haye has to train incredibly hard and it's all leading up to 1 fight which could be over in 8 seconds. The pressure boxers must be under in that scenario must be huge. You have to be as strong mentally as physically. Anyway, apples and oranges. The award hasn't changed my estimations of any of them. Ennis is still fit as, Taylor is still a lardy bloke from Staffordshire.

We're splitting hairs over Ennis, but never mind. Taylor I am sure is a fantastically tallented darts player. But to say he is the second most prominent sports person in Britain is a bit of an embarassment for me. People like Haye, W******d and pretty much everyone else nominated, are competing against competitors from around the world.

It's Agustin Delgado's birthday on Thursday. Better not forget that one.

I know, but according to Wiki Ennis is only the European Champion at the heptathalon. And I don't care how many world titles Phil "The Burger" Taylor has won, darts is a sh*t sport. Infacts it's barely a sport at all and hardly anyone plays it outside of the UK.

Just can't take SPOTY seriously anymore, not after Giggs won it last year. Now we have a darts player beating a pentathalon world champion. Hmmmm...
