Never had a problem with the fee to be honest although comparing other players in terms of Schlongs has made me chuckle. £12m in today's market is not at all out of order and when you look at what other teams pay for bang average players, it's not a bad deal at all. Just really pleased for him (and us) that he's now in the team regularly generally frightening other teams defences. Happy Valentines Day ?

Watching some of the other Premier league teams on motd tonight, I realise just how good we are. Some of the defending has been horrendous.

No it wasn't

Timely

Don't want to speak too soon but Van Dijk is sweeping up everything at the moment. He's top drawer that lad.

Well, I wasn't expecting that line up! Hope Ron's got this right.

Nothing wrong with the UK. Look around the world and see the options,. Think yourselves lucky you were born in this great country and not elsewhere.

I've gone 'miss out on promotion'. You're right though, we should have agreed on a strategy beforehand ?

Don't worry, Question Time will sort this out ... I have my wine and I'm in a shouting at the tele mood so ready for the Tory to try and defend Jeremy Hunt.

Voted ?

There are some cracking suggestions in the comments on that link too, from: "Could we not test out residents behind the Milton end regarding compensation of say £20k each for loss of light should they agree to a rebuilt Milton end at a greater height?" to "A state of the art modern stadium fit for a premier league club BETTER than Saint Mary's. Yea it might cost £50m but with retail, ships restaurant get it funded by government funding similar to the likes of man city.* They seem to be a club swimming and cash just looking for a way to spend it. This fella seems to talk more sense though: "Im not sure we need to worry about capacity at this stage. Lets be honest, its not a sell out every week. If we increased to 30k capacity and still got 16k, it would look rather empty. Are our supporters so fickle that they won't come unless we were in the Premiership? I remember the days in the 90's when we had terracing and could fit in 24k yet rarely was it sell out."

Well, in the end we heard news that the Penguin Cafe in Lee on Solent had changed hands so we thought we'd check that out. Quite an experience getting there today ... it took a while to get the car door open against the wind and was hard work walking towards the seafront. ? Well worth it in the end though. 6 items for £5 plus tea/coffee included in the price. Great breakfast too. I opted for 2 x bacon, fried egg, beans, saute potatoes and fried bread. Looks like I have plenty of places to try out in future too. ?

Thanks folks. I was thinking of the Santos lounge so might give that a go, although to be honest the selco option might be just what I'm looking for! I'll check out the Bonne Bouche too as Hamble might be a good option. Cheers

Evening all. Got some friends over from America and we're after a good English breakfast tomorrow. Can anyone recommend somewhere for a really good fried breakfast. Somewhere within half an hours drive of Southampton would be good! Cheers.

Always been android. Glad about that again now. Apple is sooo overpriced in comparison.

Blimey, I'm agreeing with Glasgow! Even with the sending off (and possibly because of it) I thought it was a cracking game today and showed how good we are even with ten men. Long had another great game although be fair I've never been one to slag him off. Just needed a good run in the team and I'd pick him over Pelle any day now.

VvD MotM for me. Absolutely superb. Had Carroll in his pocket from the moment he came on. Great team effort all round. Really glad we beat them. I try to like them but I always come away thinking they're a bunch of ****s after we've played them. I was hoping things might be better under Bilic but Clottenberg put paid to that.

I liked Crete. Beautiful island.

Brilliant. Forster earned his salary today. MotM by a mile. Great result.

Not a bad start so far.

Yes, a very sad day indeed. Terry used to make the commute to work bearable and on many occasions I found myself laughing out load while sitting in a traffic jam on the M3 when the Janet and John stories were on.

This. I thought Danny Murphy was going to **** himself into a coma the way he's been banging on about how great United have been. He seems to have forgotten they're playing Derby and not Barcelona.

Legend

Filled it in but would agree that it would need to be something a little tongue in cheek with a bit of ****taking for me to buy it.
