  1. The sad thing is that RK is damaged goods by talking to Everton. The article states they will talk to others before deciding. I suspect he would have lost a large section of the fanbase by talking to them, and so his time is up with us whatever I suggest. I would like a summer of calm but not tying him down before now was a big mistake. Complacency yet again by Les and co. Although as i have mentioned before, I don't believe they get on and so perhaps quietly Les is not too unhappy if he goes.
  2. Immigration is the one big driver to this referendum it seems to me. One thing we need to think about is that as we as a nation with an ageing population need young blood coming in to help bring in the taxes to help us all in old age. It seems to me that as the young marry and have children later we are not going to have the young come through to keep the economy driving on.Therefore Gwent should embrace the new young coming in to keep us when we are old and retired.
  3. 2) Be fair, I've counted nearly 35 of them. does that include the ones on the right hand side who look to have changed their minds and are facing the wrong direction?

    Jutland 100

    Jack Travis Cornwall died at Jutland ages 16. He was awarded the VC. Many of you will know of Jacks Corner the playground at the Sports Centre named in memory of him
  5. Stupidly I believed that if you vot to go out , you are out. I didnt realise we have a vote to go out and if so they will buckle and reform....oh and when they do we have voted to go out and so it wont matter
  6. I would think that for security reasons the tannoy system is vital
  7. It's funny how we see things differently, I thought he was poor and too slow for the PL
  8. Fair comment, and of course you cant do every scenario but a 5000-1 chance is low enough to make plans for. It is concerning that the guy in the US has been asking the questions and the answer was, there is a file on a shelf somewhere! I dont know his name but he has written a book warning of this issue.
  9. Yep a man in a balloon would bring society to a standstill, wheras we all could live without electricy. The American said that they could bring the grid system down for 3 months.
  10. Should the security forces not plan for all events? I watched Bloomberg some time ago and there was a man on there talking about somebody taking out the US electricity grid. He said they have little or no plan for that and was calling the people in power to sort it out as no electricity could mean chaos
  11. If I thought voting out would get the Eu reformed i would be there in an instant. Sadly we are dealing with politicians on both sides
  12. Dixon and Speedie, a potent pair at Chelsea but at Saints!!
  13. my computer is slow, with a message about long running scripts. Mcafee keepsputting up warnings as well
  14. MAKING products is the key word. We cannot be compared to China, they fund a lot of our debt, and are by far a bigger player in the world than we are.
  15. So where should we be?
  16. Ive been supporting Saints for nearly 50 years and almost as brainwashed as a lot of other Saints fans in accepting that we should be thankful for 6th place. We could afford to have a good go as we now have the extra PL riches, as well as a surplus in transfer dealings, but lets be thankful that we are punching above our weight (something I don't believe) I would add that if RK sign an extension it ould allay some of my concerns
  17. the arrogance is if we believe we can do it time and again
  18. Have any of the young players really improved under Wenger? I think Theo and Ox have not done as well as they should, and there
  19. it is bizarre how some on here almost celebrate upheaval. We must be one of a very few sporting models that breaks up a successful side by getting rid of the most influential players. The arrogance to believe that time and again the arrivals will come good is remarkable. I hope as a Saints fan that the faith in the black box is well founded. If I was RK I would be off to a club that builds its stability not unpicks it. Iam in the concerned camp, but as has been pointed out we have done it before and so lets hope for the best.
  20. As for the 5 potentially leaving, that is hell of a lot of decent players to replace let alone the extra European games where we need a bigger squad
  21. on the Southampton Bible there was a post showing a league of spending for the last 2 seasons (money in and out) We were bottom of the league with a profit of 22m. Leicester were halfway up with a spend of 49m,Spurs were a place above us on -9m. Will we will bring in 60M ish and reinvest a lesser % of that. What a good investment we are.
  22. Some fakes are now so good that some use proper movements.
  23. I have done so. Did it arrive?
  24. he also had 2 of our players by the throat at halftime as he told them they didn't care and not trying. I know this to be true as I know someone there at the time
  25. I would strongly recommend that you avoid buying on the internet. The fakes are so good now that it is becoming very difficult for a layman to buy. The fakes come with boxes certificates etc etc. The landlord of a pub locally didnt take notice of advice and bought a watch that would be worth £3k in the trade for £1800 online and was proudly bragging to his clients how clever he was. It would not be classy to point out he was wearing a fake. Greed took over his brain sadly. I personally dont rate Rolex as they bang out thousands of them a year, but they have wonderful marketting, and by raising prices every year keeps the 2nd hand market up and so good if you wish to resell. If you are looking to buy a secondhand vintage model Gardiner Houlgate are having a watch auction on Wednesday. Try www.gardinerhoulgate.co.uk where you will see their catalogue online. If you need help bidding/ buying at an auction I would be happy to give you help if required. Remember all the auction add ons when you are bidding and remember you will be up against professionals. It is not like those goons you see pretending they know about stuff on the tv.
