Did Trevor have anything to say about Islamophobia of those who spend their days looking for negative Muslim stories on the Internet?

Even a broken clock is right twice a day, but poor old Batman isn't even that consistent!

Apparently he is saying that he wont go to another London club out of respect to the @rse. I hope he goes somewhere to get game time rather than being a bench warmer.

Maybe, we shall see I guess but it will be interesting to see if he goes or stays and tries to make Spuds a "big club" again. Frankly I really don't care if he does well or not.

Me too. But what a car crash. I'd forgotten just how cr@p those days were. And to think we have had people telling us how badly the club was being run during the last two summers!

Why is it annoying? And he still hasn't won anything yet. Perhaps save your feelings for when he does?

Yet apparently we were told that we should be looking to emulate Stoke (and Everton and Crystal Palace).

Probably best mate, although I agree that fart gags are always welcome too!

What an earth has the comment regarding the obvious statement that rape isn't the preserve of Muslim men got to do with people not being charged, convicted and sentenced earlier??? I don't think you will find anyone on here who condones rape, no matter who commits it.

You really do not get it do you?

Do you honestly believe that RK would play certain players out of favouritism? He was a quality player and he knows better than any of us that you don't win by playing favourites. You might not agree with some of his selections but then when does anyone agree with a manager all of the time? (Especially on here )

Trying to be too subtle perhaps?

I might agree with you if the word "should" meant anything. You can say that we "should" have gone up both times as champions but we didn't. There are no guarantees in football. Chelsea "should" be finishing in the top 4 this season with all of their resources but we skirting the relegation zone for a while. Given last season you could say that Tottenham "should" be above Leicester this season. You can say we underperformed, but nothing is nailed on in any given season when it kicks off.

Would that be the first statue or the second? But yes, things were pretty awful but who knows where we would be if that hadn't happened? We nearly got bought by the consortium that bought Coventry and I remember many on the forum bigging them up. Lord knows we dodged a bullet there. As grim as it was, would anyone have missed the amazing journey we have been on since?

It was a typo van H. No big deal.

He was okay. Plenty more up for that accolade. Some old folk might remember Alan McLoughlin, our first million pound player. Total pants for us.

You know what, you have a serious problem, if you arent getting help then I advise that you do. I really cant be bothered to have anything more to do with you.

Lawrie Mac will always be a hero in my eyes as he managed us in what many of us old uns would say was a golden era for the club. Sadly it all went badly wrong for a while and Lawrie perhaps didn't cover himself in glory either during those days. Still without that ego I doubt if we would have achieved what we did in those days, including the amazing feat of signing the European Footballer of the Year! A true legend for the club, but not without his flaws!

What is your point? Are you saying that there is a difference depending on race or religion when it comes to sexual assault?

Cloughs drinking did ruin him but drinking was widespread in football, especially amongst the players. When he was signed by us he was seen as a really good appointment. You ignored to mention that he also got Ipswich into Europe. Anyway, we all have different views and I think you will find that there are some Saints fans who didn't have a problem with Burley although I accept that there are plenty who do. I shouldn't have said win ratio, I should have said points average per game, in which he came higher that Lawrie Mac and Hoddle.

When you keep on as if they are the only ones committing these crimes as if is solely down to their religion. I am not angry or upset, I just feel that people like you make things worse for ordinary law abiding people.

They played a warm up gig at Plymouth just before they played the Isle of Wight festival in 1970 but that was where they became noticed. They were labelled a "supergroup" as they had all been in relatively successful bands before (The Nice, King Crimson and Atomic Rooster respectively) but that made them a target for many of the rock press who had a down on them from the start. Bombastic and pretentious were words often thrown at them but their amazing musicianship could not be denied and there first 5 albums were groundbreaking and sold in shedloads. After Brain Salad Surgery they lost their way and the pressure put on them to provide radio friendly short track took its toll on their material, but from 1970 to around 1975 they were massive. The press made a big thing of Punk killing them off but that wasn't the case as shown by bands like Pink Floyd and Genesis continuing to sell out massive shows and shift tons of albums in the late seventies onwards. In fact John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten) became buddies when they both moved to Santa Monica and he said he never had a problem with ELP, that was all down to the press. The music from the 60s is often referred to as a golden era, but the 70s also provided some amazing stuff, especially from bands who started out in the 60s.
