  1. Took long enough but I have finally managed to dig it up
  2. Battle of Britpop - Rohl with It ended up at No.2 in the charts. If we end up 2nd in the table next season I'll accept that
  3. I remember your posts on Nathan Jones (and the response) but not Ivan Juric. Appreciate there can be a delay before things coming to pass, so maybe your warnings over Juric got lost in the post, similar to how Lallana has only just learned about his new role as player-coach which you informed us of last summer 😉
  4. Sometimes when I'm watching the match live in the actual stadium I'll have an idle thought about whether there are any streams ahead of whatever I'm witnessing. Interesting to know it can happen.
  5. Lallana - the only way his signing could be justified was for him to identify how we needed to seriously up our standards to compete in the Premier League, with him lined up to get appointed caretaker player/manager within 10 games of the season starting.
  6. I thought so too until recently, but I've come to realise there will always be a cultural divide. It's all fun and games until they collectively decide something that would be abhorrent to us, like fuck around with the promotion/relegation system and only then would the fans suddenly realise their clubs resemble MK Dons a little too much, a little too late.
  7. Maybe this is the way things should go once the super league finally happens. Or at minimum, 50+1 style ownership as in Germany. Heaven forbid all the yanks take our clubs over and play havoc with the league system in the same way they're messing with the world right now.
  8. Too bad Russell Martin couldn't afford to offer him more minutes at Saints. Understandable though, with such a log-jam of talent at left back.
  9. It's all smiles until you call him a wheeler-dealer. Hope he's having fun digging up Rosie.
  10. Interesting to know, I had assumed they would be subsidised. Wonder how on earth they expect to be viable filling a fraction of St Mary's capacity.
  11. Just making light of your impatience as we wait for our return the Championship to begin. Honestly, there is no cause for alarm, apart from everything we've witnessed across our last two attempts in the Premier League.
  12. My source tells me we're waiting on Allardyce to say yes before getting rid.
  13. Not only that but like our derby, their match also had nothing at stake as all our sides are marooned in mid-table. Saints need to pay attention as they are doing something right up North that we clearly aren't. Can't fault us on ticket prices, but think we're severely lacking in terms of promoting the women's side and this season definitely feels like they've become an afterthought in the club's thinking.
  14. Nadine Dorries has: https://web.archive.org/web/20250318154256/https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-14508391/NADINE-DORRIES-narcissist-Reform-Rupert-Lowe.html I do find it a bit hard to believe given Nadine's line in fiction-writing but there's no smoke without fire. The idea of him manhandling Mike Kane is a bit hard to get my head around though. Love how Reform sat on all this ammunition until it was convenient to go crying to the cops about him. Part of me wondered if his Saints Forever PR company shenanigans would ever come to light in the mainstream press, but looks like he's managed to top all that by having turned into a right nutter.
  15. Would be beyond ridiculous if true. He has zero managerial experience
