That's just so full on holes and contradicitions. We had a 'give youth a chance' philosophy forced on us, so we spent our last penneys on... an unknown youth player. Imagine if we'd spent that money on a quality experienced player like (but not actually) Lambert or Fonte. We might have had a chance then. If you're badly short of money and experienced players, the absolute last person you should be signing is a foreign teenager with no experience what-so-ever of English football. The sensible thing would have been to stick with Pearson, bring in free, experienced players like Wotton and Harding on small wages and mix them with youth players. Then spend the money we spent on Morgan (however much) on a quality, experienced centre half. Not rocket science and I reckon it would have got us midtable.

I know an airline pilot who used to fly for Air India Express. Let me put it this way; take the train.

All of which is pretty much irrelevant, when you consider we spent £1.2m on an unknown French teenager. I don't think I can remember a more inappropriate tranfer in the history of Southampton football club.

That's in the stratosphere, but I don't think that counts as space. What were you in, a Mig 25?

Would be great, but apparently he left Brum because he wants Premier League football. If he isn't going to play for them, he sure as heck wont be coming to us.

As it says on the tin. How often do you 'upgrade'? Mine is just over 2 years old but the screne is on the blink. Part of me thinks I'd be as well getting a new one rather than sending off to get it repaired (pretty sure it's out of warranty). The other part thinks that's a bit too soon and the stuff on the market isn't all that much better than what I've got now.

We've already had Lowe with money. He bought Delgado and Neil McCann.

I think it's the recession. We seem to be pushing out the cheapest crap imaginable and labeling that entertainment. Geordie Shore and the like probably replaces Big Brother as lowest of the low, but even on the major channels there's a lot of crap. Endless cookery shows and dancing/singing tallent contests. X-Factor must be every producers wet dream. Cowell and Cole's wages must be by far the biggest expense on that. All you need is TV studio with some bright lights and a bunch of half-tallented half-wits. I don't honnestly know how to feel about these shows. Half of me is really irritated, the other half is just plain astonished about how any human being can be entertained by such dross. They've been doing XF in various guises for well over a decade now and yet still people tune in religiously to find out which HMV checkout assistant will be completely forgotten about in 18 months* time. *It would be 4 months but for some reason we've now got 'Dagenham Stacy' advertising Iceland and Jedward on the Eurovision F**king Song Contest. The paralympics of the music industry. P.S. Mr Cowell, on the off chance you are reading this; yes you're right. There are tallented singers out there. There is a world of difference between being a half decent singer and being a musician. There is a reason people like Olly Murs, JLS and Alexandra Burke were undiscovered. They're crap. JLS are just an pointless rehash of Blue, Westlife, Five and all the other boy bands we got bored with in 2003. Burke apparently needs a covered version of Boney M to get a hit and Olly Murs is possibly the most BORING entity I have ever been exposed to.

She's Danish, but I like your thinking.

Good, because we're pronoucing his name wrong anyway. It's Fonte as in font. What you stick babies in. We need to be careful or this could end up like Delgado's birthday.

Good stuff, would hate for Lee Holmes to get lonely.

Actress required for short film. This week (not porn! ;) )

Shame, I might have been able to help you. -
Could reach French airspace by Thursday according to the Mail. Not sure this really counts as an immigrant, but they're pretty unhappy about it. Stuff doesn't get much more awesome than volcano lightning

The alternatives being Wigan, Blackburn and Wolverhampton?

How could you post that without rule 1 FFS!!

I once made a hole in a grape and f**ked that.

And yet you chose to dismiss the possibility of ghosts simply because you don't have the scientific knowledge to explain them.
-
All the while neanderthal MLG was confidentally telling other neanderthals thunder didn't exist and they were foolish to believe in it.

I doubt that many players are going to stick around for a midweek trip to Metalist Kharkhiv.

Scarborough on holiday this year it is then.

Again with the 'mankind has a complete and comprehensive knowledge of everything in the universe' routine. I said maybe. It's a possibility based on a sh*t load of weird stuff we can't understand. I've no idea, so I'm not going to get dragged into another 'God' debate.

Mediums, psychics, seances etc are all complete bull. It's pretty much common, there have even been numerous books, documentaries etc. on how it's done. Yet for some reason people still flock to circus shows by con artist like Derek Accorah and Psychic Sally. I know some people suffer very badly from the loss of a loved one, but it doesn't excuse them from complete idiocy. You might as well ask a tin of beans if you're loved one's are at peace. As for ghosts. There's probably something in it, by way of science we cannot yet explain. Maybe when people die suddenly, violently and/or unexpectedly there is some form of weird energy released.
