  1. It takes all kinds.I am a loyal person and proud of where I come from, to see people brought up in the city and then wish its representative football team fail sickens me. I was with a Reading fan born and bred and he also found it distasteful. i suppose I should have gone and abused some staff in a shop to vent my frustrations.
  2. The only person/persons with 100% reliable information in this are the buyers,lenders and sellers. My info has not come through the PM system on here but people I trust. Take of it what you will, some will be waiting to dish the criticism out to me for giving out wrong info if the deal doesnt go through. Similar to when I put up Jhon had gone Awol, as soon as a counter excuse was put up, they were straight at me.I knew what the truth was and many wanted to belive the other story just to gain points or try to discredit. I do not need to come onto a forum to lie, but I will try and sort the wheat from the chaff. This morning I heard something that was positive, nothing more and no detail.Iam still more than happy with the info.
  3. I havent seen him play. You have and so your point is valid, but I myself will not be critical of him until I have seen him playing in a Saints shirt. I cannot see any reason why we would sign him, other than Jan saw him and liked his play. Or Pulis asked us to take him and it was hidden in with the deal
  4. NO not intended as one Exit
  5. And so the Stoke fans who are dissing him have seen him twice
  6. The wearing of a Liverpool shirt and born in Southampton did not set me off, it was the 'I hope Saints go down' that got me boiling.
  7. My faith wanes but then like today I get a snippet and it is raised again.Im not getting this from the numpty down the pub who's mate lives next door to somebody who knows etc.It is coming from a few directions and all are consistant. There is a secrecy, and I know much has come out but there is a much more tight lipped affair from people who were more loose with info last time.
  8. Well done Alpine.
  9. You are correct with your wording Roswell. I have heard one or two snippets and that has given me reason to be more optimistic. Nothing is guaranteed, and if nothing happens by next wednesday I would think its never going to.
  10. Soon the kids will be so young in the calendar you wont be able to display without being accused of being a peado.
  11. On sunday I was out and saw a family group. They are aquaintences rather than friends.The grandson of about 14 was wearing a Liverpool shirt. The grandfather quickly told me he had put on £100 for us to be relegated (hes a supposed Saints fan) and excused himself by saying that if he did so we wouldnt go down.But he had just been bragging that he did so in our relegation season and had bet at I think he said 50-1. That was bad enough but then I overheard him in conversation about saints in general and the grandson piped up I hope Saints do go down. Well a kid born in Southampton wishing for the local team to be relegated got me going, and so I butted into their conversation and asked him how many times he'd been to Anfield. Never was his reply. Realising that I had heard the conversation it was backtracking time and of course the grandparents etc said that he didnt mean it. I dont understand the mentality of the kids thoughts, whats wrong with people?
  12. Im in the its happening zone. Normally in general Im cynical but on this occasion the bits im hearing are , its on.
  13. lets give him a chance. It is always difficult to play at a club that your father manages.
  14. MB did the 2nd woman not only have implants on her bewbs but also her thighs calves, hips. Not a good one in my book.(this is the first set of pictures above) As for the 2nd set I do like the blond in the pink undiesw. who is she?
  15. I must remember that 1 when we have our talk at SMS MB. Just over the top 2-2 all still
  16. the first picture of Pompeylass's is a bloke isn't it?
  17. Hey where did that equaliser come from 2 all
  18. Yeah they will probably get Mandelson to deal with it.
  19. without seeing a picture I cannot comment.Being a Pompey fans does give you a better chance of course
  20. I believe in them, especially after saturday when I saw standing to my left a row back and......... In the net, 2-1 MB
  21. Thanks Lassie, it brought back lots of memories. ps I put Lassie not as in dog!!! but as fine Lass
  22. LC (I should have put Wilde bunch, as to be fair it was just him)imo went and spent to get us to the PL. That would have overcome a lot of our financial worries had it worked.It was a gamble and sadly came up red like our bank balance. It was then when we had overstrateched too far that the accelleration to now happened.
  23. Can you remember it? I dont think it is sold nymore, I think they did a lager and lime flavour as well. It caused hell of a stir when I walked into Shirley school in the early 70's drinking some. I bought it from the local shop and all of a sudden us being kids and wanting to be early boozers, the school playground was full of kids drinking cans of it. Anyway the teachers not knowing it was as potent as spittle were going around confiscating it.
  24. Alpine I can see your logic, but a price tag does not always mean you are getting quality in a footballer. As has been shown by others over the years our most successful signings have invaribly been our cheapest and best and our most expensive the most disappointing. Delap, McCann,Delgado, Rudi. This whole debate stems from how you view the best way of getting out of the financial mess.LC threw money at it in the gamble it would be black and not red, wheras RL is more cautious and cuts the cloth accordingly.I myself am careful in business and so take the RL route. Many others spend up to their credit card limit and get car loans, bank loans etc etc and have a good time but sooner or later they have to face the fact of paying up.
  25. MR G, all common sense it must come with the name.
