Ho-ly Sh!te. They have Biblical scripture protecting their personal effects!? This may be tougher than first thought. Let's just hope MLG doesn't come across a group of them.

I want to be in that number, it's in the song. I've been to a Saints match every season since our promotion back so I'm hoping to make it 4 years in a row this year, maybe even a European match. As an aside, my first Saints/Premier League match was Poch's first game as manager. That was the first Saints match for me, Poch and, our favorite, Forren. Out of those three only I remain so thats got to be worth something. This year, as part of our honeymoon, my wife and I witnessed the 6 goal Villa thrashing. Anyways, when you only get to go once a year you want to ensure you get tickets so 25 quid is nothing.

Got my card today. Whose membership card traveled the farthest? I'm in Delaware, USA so approximately 3,500 miles.

Erroneous. (they make them for the left hand too, for two foam handed beer holding)

Hej Hej, Per soccerbars.com, the bars in the link below are known to show the football. I've never watched football during my stays in LA so I'm not sure which one is best but start looking at their websites and try to narrow down the better ones using TripAdvisor and Yelp. Because you'll be in Cali the matches will be on very early (5:30AMish) so email your preferred bar of choice ahead of time, they may even promote it on their site. http://www.soccerbars.com/modules/soccerbars/bars_by_town.php?country=USA&region=California&town=Los%20Angeles You probably won't be able to see our qualifying stage at a bar because the TV providers (namely Directv, which most bars use) generally start to show Europa and Champions League matches at the group stage. Perhaps one our resident bloggers (Redslo) can chime in. I think he's around the Santa Barbara area but I'm not positive. Enjoy California and be sure to stop at Pink's Hotdogs!

Congrats. While not the norm I suppose it'll save you from debating which side of the family you should visit for Christmas dinner.

I'll float it out there (mostly on Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale), we should do a once a year "North American-once-a-Saint-always-a-Saint-jamboree" where North American Saints fans get together to support Southampton's past, current and future glories at an MLS game consisting of former Saints, or just when Guly comes to Philly because I don't want to drive that far. Ralph will show up, no doubt. Deal? Done. See you lot in August.

He's a Fire legend, be on their banner soon enough. Got my seats next to the away bench for his visit to Philadelphia next month. Once a Saint always a Saint.

After Groningen's utterly embarrassing loss. Not sure how they'll get that back, the airlines will milk them for baggage fees.

My fellow Contracts brother in arms. While it looks like this was just bad market research, I'm reminded of the picture below. Were different parts of the project bid at separate points in the schedule? I'm confused why bids were higher than expected but work has already begun. Also, novel concept, the Contracts Manager (or whatever their title is in this instance) could always negotiate, it's what we're paid to do.

These are all being done to "Radio Ga Ga," right?

Why mention Schneiderlin?

Brenda will be bagging groceries in a Torquay Tesco 2 years from now and Hodgson can't get access to Dutch nationals for tapping up so Liverpool's South Coast Recruiting team will be out of business.

Are Shlongs pegged to anything? I'm afraid they'll start getting shorted with this whole greek business. Just trying to look out for SW, don't want Alps having to negotiate a bail out deal.

Word on the street is, he's demanding a special clause that requires St Marys be flooded once a year, filled with eels and a hovercraft battle take place over top said eels (think coliseum, naval battles). Clasie will then dress as a Roman emperor and decide the fate of the losing hover-warriors. He's called the Nero of the Netherlands for a reason. No word on whether the eels must be electrified or man eating, or man earing electric eels.

I don't know where you work but they have no ambition and you'll no doubt be relegated this year. If I were you I'd force a move to a bigger employer.

Why do they use a variation of the Manchester City Council coat of arms? Have they always done that?

KL: Do you like sitting, watching the match from afar? MS: C'est quoi, ça? KL: This. What you're doing now. Do you like it? It's exactly what you'll be doing in Manchester.

HP Sauce. HP Sauce rocks. Let's start calling good things HP Sauce, even brown sauce. e.g.) Soares is totes brown sauce.

How many people from around the world immigrate to the UK each year? As the crow flies, he was 250 miles from Brussels in Southampton; he was 820 miles from Brussels in Madrid. Was he that home sick that moving to London, 50 miles closer to Brussels, made the difference? LCY is nice to fly into and out of I suppose, weather permitting.

I rate him, more so than Yosh. He seems to really like the club so if he puts his head down and with a year of PL experience under his belt I seem him being a bigger contributor. A like for like replacement for Toby? No, but I don't think he's as bad as people make him out to be.

Would explain why Poch likes him.

Levy's a big hipster and likes to use old timey cameras. Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a flash bulb for these things?
