  1. Probably busy doing these: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b05tv211
  2. #barraised or #braraised?
  3. Puel Sturrock?
  4. Shaved pussy would have been more amusing.
  5. 2-1 against actually!
  6. If Everton treble FF's wages I'm sure that would more than make up for missing out on the Mighty Europa League this season.
  7. Not that far off.
  8. The rumours are that VVD and Forster both had release contracts in their new contracts which weren't present in their previous ones and that the amounts of this clauses weren't really all that earth shattering.
  9. It's about what WHU pay Payet a month after his pay rise.
  10. Trust is a two way street. If, after all he has done in VERY difficult circumstances the past two season, and given the huge increase in the club's revenue due to the new tv deal, all Les has offered him is a 500k pay rise then he's justified in feeling ****ed off and feel that his ambition isn't being matched by the board? If we don't spend £5m on matching what Everton would pay what else would we spend it on? Another Juanmi?
  11. User Actions Follow Connor Armstrong‏@ConnorArmstrong Liverpool Echo reporting that suggestions that Koeman and/or his agent were Merseyside-bound for talks are 'wide of the mark'. #saintsfc
  12. Well we can't play both Kane and Vardy in the same position.
  13. Did you not read post 348, you old pink jacketed militant!
  14. If Palace win the Cup we play: [TABLE=width: 623] [TR] [TD=class: TableNoBg]Third qualifying round, first leg[/TD] [TD=class: TableNoBg]28/07/16[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=class: TableNoBg]Third qualifying round, second leg[/TD] [TD=class: TableNoBg]04/08/16[/TD] [/TR] [TR=class: TableNoBg] [TD]Play-off round, first leg[/TD] [TD]18/08/16[/TD] [/TR] [TR=class: TableNoBg] [TD]Play-off round, second leg[/TD] [TD]25/08/16[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] If Man U win the Cup it's straight to: [TABLE=width: 623] [TR] [TD=class: TableNoBg]Group stage, matchday one[/TD] [TD=class: TableNoBg]15/09/16[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=class: TableNoBg]Group stage, matchday two[/TD] [TD=class: TableNoBg]29/09/16[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=class: TableNoBg]Group stage, matchday three[/TD] [TD=class: TableNoBg]20/10/16[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=class: TableNoBg]Group stage, matchday four[/TD] [TD=class: TableNoBg]03/11/16[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=class: TableNoBg]Group stage, matchday five[/TD] [TD=class: TableNoBg]24/11/16[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=class: TableNoBg]Group stage, matchday six[/TD] [TD=class: TableNoBg]08/12/16[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
  15. How many tickets have been sold?
  16. Lambert must just be happy at the opportunity to play football. It hasn't happened much these past 2 years.
  17. It means the inbalance created by having 5 CL teams will be balanced by only having 2 EL teams. The priority for these two teams will be to the 2 domestic cup winners. (or in this case only one at present as the League Cup place will already be going to the team finishing 5th in the PL (assuming City finish top 4).

  19. This has just been posted on The Ugly. Is this FF it is from?? ---------------------------------------------------------------- One of the guys who was involved with the Club historians and programme stories etc is not impressed as from his post on Facebook shown below Could it be that I am the first person to read Lawrie McMenemy: A lifetime's obsession from cover to cover? Am I going to be the last person to read Lawrie McMenemy: A lifetime's obsession from cover to cover? It is likely. It is anything but compulsive reading. However, I am a Saints’ historian and it’s an obligation to keep up with any relevant "literature". It was while working my way through the chapter devoted to the many alleged betrayals of Terry Paine that I stumbled across my own name, as the T-shirt says, on page 152. Amazing!Lawrie McMenemy has, I am happy to say, nothing good to say about me, all of which is half-truths and utter ********, triggered by what he reckons to be “offensive comments” I made about him in the Saints’ programme last season. A nine-year-old, on reading the article in question, could have told Lawrie that I was not being pejorative, merely pointing out that, following relegation in 1974, his credentials to manage Southampton FC were called into question in some quarters. Something that Lawrie acknowledges himself. Evidently, Lawrie didn’t have a nine-year-old to hand when he took umbrage. Facebook is not a suitable medium for book reviews, but I will be discussing A lifetime’s obsession elsewhere in the not too distant future. In the meantime, regarding the usefulness of this tome to even the most enthused of Saintly bibliophiles, it is worth bearing in mind that he devotes more space to erroneously trashing me, the best part of a page, than he does Alan Ball’s managerial career at The Dell or that of Dave Merrington. This is all the “Big Man” has to say about Merrington, conceded during a brief reflection of Alan Shearer’s development: “… one of the best youth coaches in England. Dave went on to manage the club.” That’s yer lot! Dave Merrington rates greater attention than many other individuals who played key roles at Southampton Football Club during Lawrie’s three tenures but me, humble, innocent, little old me, I rate 350 words. In short: a work of psychotic subjectivity, egregious cant and Homeric pusillanimity.
  20. Wasn't your friend the landlord woken up by him drunkenly hammering on the pub door to be let in at 3am one night?
  21. Philosophies.
  22. Or will it be two as its his 2nd red I think??
