Thinking about this situation with Lovren, I'd be inclined to make him aware of his contractual responsibilities to the club and that he signed a 4 year commitment to us for the provision of his services to perform a specific function for that duration. If he's not willing to do that then I'd place him on gardening leave to cool off and discuss with his legal advisors. Once he's realised that Southampton FC hold all of the cards needed to win the case we'd then be willing to discuss next steps. However, if he takes the path of conflict with the club I'm of the opinion that writing off £8m to prove our point is a cost worth taking because it will be a once-off situation. Obviously, no wages are paid for non performance if contracted duties due to refusal to work. This is a game of brinkmanship I'd be happy to play this time around.

Is MLG dropping hints? http://idenation.com

I've got a hunch that we've already identified and agreed to sign a replacement for Luke which is what set the ball rolling with Buttner leaving MU for Moscow Mafia United and Shaw's move to MU being sanctioned. Guan has kind of alluded to this in his posts I think. I guess it remains for us to find out in the next few days who this Mr. X is.

I think that we'll see an initial tweak leaving us with a structure like this ----------------- GK ------------------- ----------CB ------------ CB ---------- WB ------------ DM --------------- WB ---- AM ------- MC -------- AM ------ ---------- ST ------- ST ------------

How about a version of this?

The Daily Mail story which broke cover the day after the club released the Les video, quoted sources saying that he handed it in on the 30th May... I think that because it was only made public yesterday, by whom?, that it's an easy assumption to make it was done yesterday. Nothing quite like checking facts etc....

Interesting that reports suggest that Lovren handed in his request at the end of May, and that the story co-incidentally breaks cover again the day after the club release positive sounding news to the world. The timing and repeating of this suggests a strong possibility that someone, somewhere is worried about this club, that we're becoming a threat and are deliberately trying to undermine our efforts to build on the successes of last season. Who is responsible for this and why?

What's on that list of departments etc to the left of "Maurrico " ? Looks like a list of tenanted companies or departments to me. Is that in a private hospital or university research building?

Lies, damned lies and statistics

Yep. I'm one. I'd like to see a little more character in our team. We've got some great players but a touch on the grey side if you get what I mean. Players like Dani and Artur add some much needed colour to the side. I think we need to put what happened behind us and work out how we can get him to fit better. The guy gas talent and hopefully a desire to show the world what he can do.

I'd willingly sacrifice Shaw to keep Lallana.

Must Have Last Word.....

No screaming and crying from me. Never once complained to the mods.. I need no protection from you, as you offer me no threat. You do however deliberately trash this site , which is my issue, to make you feel better about yourself and your minuscule existence as highlighted by your excessive posting and immature "debating" skills. You can LMFAO all you like, but you know, as do most of the sane people on here, that this place and the people on it bother you and your alter egos way, way too much. My advice to you, as an experienced citizen if the world, is to get a life. It's not that hard, open the door from your crappy bedsit, go out in the world, meet real live people and do something worthwhile. In a few days you'll thank me.

Only where it's deservedly earned and in this instance it certainly is. I've been a site regular for many years, probably too many, but your and your alter egos deliberate derailing of discussions is pointless and should be halted by the mods. I really couldn't care less about you, but I do care for my team, what they do and for my decent fellow saints fans, which you are clearly not. TBH, you remind me of a cuckold man desperately wanting others to think that you're the big I am whilst knowing deep inside that your life is utterly pointless.

And that's why most people believe that you should be chucked off if this site you odious ..nt.

That's the bit after the Asda roundabout going towards Westbourne.... https://goo.gl/maps/Nv9vy

What We Don't Know About CO2 There is no question that CO2 levels are increasing due to human activity. But predicting the impact of this is less straightforward. Will our understanding of the world's climate system remain mired in complexity until it is too late? Or is apocalyptic thinking confusing the science? The Panel - Cambridge atmospheric physicist Michael McIntyre, author of Lives of the Planets, Richard Corfield and palaeontologist Robert Carter try to clear up the future of the atmosphere. http://iai.tv/video/what-we-dont-know-about-co2#

I'd be interested to see a version if that graph, GM, with the source of CO2 omitted overlayed. I'm fairly certain that electricity generation and transport sources would sit much lower than that of food production for the ever expanding population.

Hey, I'm seriously worried about our chances next season. From reading the papers over the past few months we're barely going to have a 1st eleven to put out. According to the "press" we're selling Calum, Dejan, Jos, Luke, Maya, Guly, Morgan, Jack, Adam, Jay, Rickie, Gaston, Sam and Dani. Added to that, we'll need 2 new keepers to replace our 2nd & 3rd choices, get rid of Mayuka and upgrade Jose'... Who the fc k is going to be on our team?

Bogan = Chav. :-)

This is why..

Ohh, Saints in Melbourne.. I'm going to that. Anyone else?

For those that believe that humans run the earths climate, this may add some perspective on just how insignificant we really are in the BIG scheme of things. http://www.onemorelevel.com/game/scale_of_the_universe_2012
