  1. There’s reading between the lines and just making it up a la Boris Ha Ha ! I can’t remember anyone on here supporting the Saudi take over only wishing someone would take Saints over. It was inevitable since Brexit , Truss said at the Tory campaign rally this week that now we’ve given the Europeans the 2 fingers we need to suck up to dodgy Arab regimes . I see Boris vetoed the head of armed forces and put in a navy man so we can rule the waves again , might be good for our friends down the road !
  2. I expect that is exactly what he told her , before his financial position came clear !
  3. The property company that has a 10% stake in NUFC owns plenty of land in the city , unfortunately they seem to be hell bent on building office blocks rather than homes ordinary people could afford to buy . I expect the redevelopment will be similar to central London ie any historical building will be dwarfed by high rises .
  4. Depends on the criteria! It’s not a bigger club at the moment, It may have been a big club in the past attracting such top football men such as Keegan and Shearer but only after they were developed by Southampton Ha Ha !
  5. No not a striker but a goal scorer
  6. He’s out on bail pending investigation.
  7. Population comparison: Southampton City 246000 , Newcastle City 192000 Southampton Urban area 936000 , Newcastle Urban area 814000 . So not population ! Could be tradition ie the main industry in Newcastle upon Tyne was coal mining plus ship building so traditionally more likely to go to football ? Also St James is close to city centre .
  8. Derby's £15m MSD loan is secured against Pride Park apparently , https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58814150
  9. BTW Jankers spent another match on the bench on Tuesday .
  10. Yes but it what National teams do , esp after Fergie kept preventing Man U players turning out for their National teams !
  11. Just because he’s named in the squad it doesn’t mean he’s fit to play or he will join up for the match preliminarys !
  12. 🤣 I can't remember him scoring apart for a long range effort some years ago ......
  13. They keep changing the rules , in the old days you could pass back to the keeper , once the defence got the ball they rolled it back to the keeper . The attacking side retreated until the keeper booted or threw the ball out again . Hence end to end football …
  14. Looks like Spurs will soon be snapping Ralph up ………..
  15. Saints 18 shots 6 on target Wolves 4 shots 2 on target ! but 0-1 ?
  16. We went on a school trip to see the 5-3 match , our coach parked near the Saints team coach so we watched them getting off their coach which was good to see them close up. The match didn't go well until the Saints started a second half come back , you felt it could have ended 5-5 if there was another 10 mins ! I don't remember much else about the match , we were in a corner in a fenced off area , probably family compound.
  17. Ian Wright was briefly on the board in 2007 as director of football development! He presented the odd MotM but was rarely seen at the club .
  18. Jimmy played for an all stars eleven against Ashford Town (Kent) back in the seventies at the Essella Road ground . Peter Sillet was player manager for Ashford , ex Saints left back with 3 England caps ! Lots of other well known names as well , football was a smaller community then . The highlight was Jimmy mis hitting a cross over the 20 foot fencing and breaking someone’s bathroom window , to raise a huge cheer ! Ashford Town sold the ground for housing but the new ground was refused planning so they became nomadic . They still exist as Ashford United at an out of town 3G pitch stadium after various reincarnations
  19. I don’t know as the Chinese authorities have their own rules which don’t have any relation to our values . If you read anything about it in the business pages or the internet you will realise that China do what they want regardless!
  20. He obviously didn’t listen to Pep a while ago !
  21. Unfortunately the Chinese govt don’t allow investors to take a loss on overseas investments, GAO is screwed .
  22. Who is our No 4 sub ?
  23. Your line seems to consist that the only racism are comments made on line , you have promoted this line consistently . Racism is not just a bit of on line abuse it is about lack of equality in all aspects of life . This can be clubs of any sport tolerating racial discrimination or the fact that clubs have not allowed non white people to progress to higher levels in said clubs . In that respect that is what anti racism in football is about , not social media abuse alone but the inequality through out the industry . This is why your constant repetition of the same point , over and over again is sterile .
  24. Yes you are going round in circles , that’s why you should stop repeating yourself endlessly , we get your point , we just don’t agree with it so you don’t need to say it again and again endlessly.
  25. I think you exceed all levels of ridiculousness with your obsession with pretending racism has almost disappeared.
