, didnt say we hadnt, but I dont see Switzerland as a beacon of correctness.

Sorry on this one Im with GM, IMO the Swiss were complicit in hiding the gold and artefacts that were stolen by the Nazis, they also seem to be the keepers of much of the criminal worlds excesses in their numbered bank accounts. They have never been involved in major wars as the people at the top want somewhere to hold their funds free from inspection and so never were invaded. Goegraphically they should have been as they were in the political sphere of the Germans

Ive just seen the score, a bloody good result for them to get a draw 0-0 against Liverpool.......................................Ohhh Hartle not Liver

lol at the security fencing to keep the hoardes back.

Only 10years ago, it seems a lifetime

So how low quality and diluted do we have to get before you start to feel it is not right? It rankles with me that we are happy to wonder around saying 'oh look there are our ex-players' at the cup finals , fighting for titles. Where is the pride in that? Whilst I do not expect the CL, had we shown a bit more ambition we could have done it, as there have been a few open goals missed in the last few seasons in getting there. I believe that had ML been here at the time he would have invested a bit to meet the goal he and NC set when they arrived.

Im not very hopeful about him,but I will say that he is getting into the positions to score. It will click and then when it does we will see if he indeed can come back to be a super star

Looks like Liverpool only need to score 1 goal in either match to go through in the cup, lol

yes but a full back is not quite the main attacking threat. Taking I love seeing our lads develop in the PL is just what the owners will love.Not having to buy and the fans taking it. When Gallagher has developed then put him in, Kane spent a long time learning his trade at other clubs before he was pushed into the major responsbility of being the main target man

yes, but there are different risk strategies. Gallagher is future talent that needs to gain experience before being under the pressure of the PL. Its a harder position to establish yourself in, probably the hardest. Personally Sims brilliant start is fantastic but we have to make sure he is gradually brought through, he could easily become a one match wonder

well if you bring Gallagher back and he fails to make the step up, that could leave us with a forward line that cant score for toffee. Dangerous game to play, especially if the defence starts to leak goals

we didnt replace him in the summer as the season ended if I recall correctly and then look what happened

that is a very interesting post. I had never seen that before and it cant be fair or democratic. I know we have vetos but it must be maddening to see a small population getting unfair voting proportion

I try not to recall the last 2 times we lost our outstanding centre back, the fiorst was Mark Wright in the FA cup semi final which we then lost. The 2nd which was more crucial was Killer Svensson and look what happened that season!!!!!

Personally Id rather sell him than pay 80k a week wages.

Hey Mack I assume you have this copy of the Portsmouth News framed on the wall http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=2257&stc=1

Here is the Pink with I think a great headline 'Its Ours'

The News Portsmouth 1978, I bet this was a best selling edition lol The next thing I found is not Saints related but is a German propaganda leaflet dropped over Southampton in the 1940's

they are all as the day I bought them, lol. didnt want to take them to a game lol

mis hit lol

Carragher's voice is horrible, sounds like hes coughing up phlegm all the time, and then whines on

Don't let the club use that one to appease fans for a while, They got away with not buying a forward after Jrods mi**** against Sunderland. Leave Gallagher where he is until he is fully ready for the PL

Austin for 1 if he is outfor 3-4months, for all the nonsense that we replaced Pelle when we signed Austin, we always needed another forward
