Perhaps we should become the "Southampton Saints" then?

I still can't fathom why they haven't been charged with child neglect.

The old adage be careful what you wish for always rings true. We could do a lot, lot worse. We should be thankful.

I don't think you are getting old Whitey (you are old). It is just that you have good taste.

There is still something about the McCanns that doesn't ring true to me. Just a gut feeling but they have never come across to me as convincing.

Indeed. No one knows what happened as yet apart for the person/people who perpetrated the abduction.

There is a process called Letter of Request where the police and CPS liaise to get info or extradition of suspects. It can be longwinded depending on the country involved. Here they just tap into the police computer records but no so straightforward abroad. I think so countries like to hear what evidence you have before they devolve any info themselves.

Bad news sells better than good news. When things are going well the "natives" are content and get on with other things. When they are not going so well the "natives" are restless and kick off on internet forums (amongst other places) to express their displeasure. Lose a few and life will be back to normal here.

You'd think that the police would check his records though. It is not that difficult to check and see if there are offences committed elsewhere.

Renewed my tax today. Odd not going to have a disc. I wonder if this means more people will be "caught" for other offences now as you would think that wardens will be checking a lot more car registrations!

Indeed. It is easy to jump to conclusions but I guess we will know soon enough.

There is that of course but what are the chances of a convicted murder being in the same place at the same time as someone who goes missing? If he is innocent it is possible that DNA evidence could clear his name.

Yep, beyond bizarre. And he gets to kill again (assuming it was him).

He did have a very high hairline. Great fullback though.

The team we had out that day had several players who were Div I class. And all British too!!!

I agree. It is just a shame that no matter how much human beings advance as a species there will always be those who can and do commit dreadful crimes such as this.

I was sat in amongst the plastics and diagonally opposite him when he shot. Wasn't sure if it was going in or wide until it hit the back of the net. Leapt out of my seat only to realise where I was and sat down sharpish. What a great moment. As we walked out there was a shower of cans coming from the back of the stairs. The Mancs were throwing them at their own fans they were so unhappy LOL.

I've not seen much of Bertrand this season but from the little I have seen he defends well and clearly can make and score goals. For all of Luke's "potential" it looks like we have done well out of his departure so far. .

Sadly they have found a body and it seems as if it is her. Always feared the worst but this is horrible news and my heart goes out to her family. As a father of three girls this is my worst nightmare. 2014 and you still cant walk around without the fear of some sick b@stard doing something unspeakable. I am against capital punishment but at times like this I do wonder if we are too lenient on the rapists and murderers. If it is the guy they suspect he has already killed before. Just awful news.

What is Posh Spice doing there? (just over Marcus's shoulder)

Probably not.

The way that Adkins was treated I would not have been at all surprised if Cortese hadn't have got shot of Poch too if he had stayed.

I wouldn't want to play on with a broken leg!!!

In the short time that RK has been here I have warmed to him far more than I ever warmed to MP. MP clearly did a good job but the surly looks, constant whining about decisions and talking in Spanish in interviews did nothing to win me over. RK on the other hand smiles a lot, seems very honest and straightforward and doesn't hide behind a language barrier. The football ain't bad either! Long may he reign.

Perhaps RK is looking to increase the penalty count?
