  1. Replay today shows the whole of the England team complaining to the the ref , not only did he cheat (in the heat of the moment) but tried to justify it ( normal for South American players , he said !) On a good day he was excellent and came from a slum upbringing . Later in Italy used drugs , dodged taxes etc and faded away . Another wasted talent like G Best etc . You would think youngsters of today would learn but Grealish , Greenwood etc don't seem to get it .
  2. I thought Walcott was sold as Saints were desperate for cash and accepted a poor deal . The spin was his Dad was desperate to get him a move to Arsenal !! Saints have got all season to see if he's worth a contract. Perhaps Ings could coach his finishing ??
  3. Time to lock the thread until the club has news !
  4. Unfortunately also played for Portugal and lost at home !
  5. He did improve at Arsenal but still did not take enough chances. He did make public his desire to play as striker and Wenger gave it a go but he did not put enough chances away and got moved on . He is not a “natural” goal scorer ie if given time to think he waits too long or duffs it . He seems better when he just “does it”! Hopefully his good games will outway his ineffective games for Saints this season and possibly beyond .
  6. Rod Liddell do you mean ? If so ignore him !
  7. Celtic seem to be missing FF !
  8. Club doing the right thing , end of debate/thread IMHO .
  9. Giggs sidelined while Depp takes the lead .
  10. well the scoutmaster did live with his Mum ......
  11. Well if it was the 18 yd line would it be a penalty if his feet were outside but half his body over the line ! They did say they were considering a bit more leeway for future VAR offsides .
  12. It was good to watch 4 excellent goals by Saints .Nearly 5 but Adams upper body was declared off side although his feet were level ! hurry up with the VAR rule rewrite !
  13. Penalty cheat league : 1. Salah 2.Vardy 3.Grealish Salah gets “Sack of potatoes “ award for 2 seasons.
  14. JWP on a hat trick , things you have never heard before!
  15. I remember 1966 final day as our scout troop were doing a blindfold tent erection exhibition at the local fete ! you couldn’t make it up .
  16. Displaced by Alan Mullery in the England team.
  17. Brian O’Neil - Rugby .
  18. Nobby Stiles member of 1966 World Cup winners team also Man U . Had rep as tough tackler .
  19. Mick Channon - legend
  20. Not much knee taking in the rugby so far !
  21. Said to be good at distribution as well as “bite your leg” style tackles .
  22. Remember the new swervy world cup ball that the Germans practiced with but the rest of the world , esp goalies , found out in matches that it moved all over the place ?
  23. Final nails for uk football being driven in , what’s the point ?
  24. Sounds like the “they were just savages before we took over their country” excuse for colonialism. Still a great divide in NZ from my own visits . How many Maori MPs are there , more than native Australia MPs in Australia?
  25. Didn't Arsenal do it as well ? poss not first of course .
