Too F*CKING real. And oddly familiar...

When I read his posts I always envisage Johnny Vegas's character in Benidorm. Morbidly obese, attention-seeking, fortysomething, living with his mother, sexually repressed, confused, deluded virgin. A sort of fat, mentally sub normal, Walter Mitty...

To be fair, when I heard him speak at the Reform Club last Wednesday I thought it was Lesley Philips. Cut glass...

All being well I look forward to playing Blackpool next season, and a rousing chorus of 'Championship you're having a laugh' Respect due...

I think that tonights events are a show of strength and a message of intent! COYR...

Spot on FF! Also, certainly more spice than drawing Chelski or the Arse, given our history with United. I bet their kit man is in a quandary...

Smut! But I did Lol!...

Having has tracked his arch enemy from the cesspit of deviance that is Blackpool, Batman spies the Riddler in the Blackpool dugout - talking even more b*llocks than usual and defending a criminal lack of talent...

Good, solid morale boost, and another success indicator carrot for potential targets! Onwards and upwards...

If it is Norwich we should be very afraid indeed. East Anglia's answer to Santos would be able to offer Lambert riches both on and off the field that a division three feeder club like us can only dream of...

Can't see this one at all, in the current situation a move sideways at best. The only way this would seem to have legs is if RL is unhappy or NA doesn't want him for his team, neither of which seems to be the case. As with the Seabourne rumour, lazy journalists on a quiet day stating the bleeding obvious - that some times teams in a higher division target players in the top teams of the league below - unfortunately SFC don't fit the standard blueprint and most of the local rag hacks are too f**king lazy to do the appropriate research! Next...

Until we are back in the Premier League we are always going to run the risk of losing talented youngsters. Of course we can make it difficult for the player to leave and difficult for the courting club, but ultimately we cannot pay a 20 year old £40K per week in the third division and unsettle all of the senior pros at the club. When we are back in the Premier League it will be easier for us to compete, but until then this is going to be a sword of Damacles every time we have a good player in a transfer window. One thing is certain, Cortese will squeeze whatever club attempts to sign AL or AC until the pips squeak and every penny will go back into the team...

and a pleasant demeanor to boot!...

We should sign Steve Austin, getting on but still got a great engine and leaps like a salmon! Also, already has the red tracksuit...

Priskin is a quality player, got an awful lot to his game and much more to come, would be a great signing. Think we have as much chance of signing Michael Jackson as Michael Owen! Trousers I agree with your sentiment wholeheartedly, but would not be so quick to write off Billy Dainty's motivational skills, the dream team of Dainty and Arthur English could be the final piece in the SMS backroom jigsaw...

BHS, having lost and imploded on the attendance argument, would you care to start up the 'Premier League seasons', 'top flight seasons', 'european campaigns', 'full internationals', 'England internationals', 'FA Cup wins', 'cup finals', or 'best catering and radio station' arguments? Do you live near Canal Street? 22500 LMFAO...

You are spot on Gemmell, I now clearly remember the vitriol against Dazza Anderton. Also, being somewhat surprised to see us referred to as 'scummers' - as a youth supporter in the late 1970s the rift between the clubs was widening and we only met the f*ckers for cup games. On another thread hijacked by the seaweed fan BHS (with the charisma and intellect of Jimmy Krankie with ADHD) I mentioned the Brighton cup game of 1986 when Biley was a substitute and refused to come on due to the wall of hatred from the Saints fans on the opposite side to the dugout. When he finally did come on the 'scummer, scummer' chants were defeaning and Rolex perpetual, happy days. If we ever get to play the blue few again I think we should rally for the return of the chant. Next time you are coming out to the Forest for a beer let me know as Inches is getting right on my tits with his plans for the maze...

If you add together the average attendances of the skates, seaweed and Bournemuff for this season the grand average is 29,000. Should the skates get relegated and the two punch & judy outfits choke (perish the thought) a merger may well be needed to fill the Louis Spence Falmer Thunderdome. 22500 LMFAO...

I seem to remember the nickname going both ways up until the Steve Moran cup match. So mid eighties we were still calling them scummers, or moreover Pompey scum...

My favourite Seaweed memory is the FA cup match in 1986 when we beat them 2-0. We took about 6000 down there and I will never forget the sheer terror on the faces of the Seaweed fans and the local constabulary who were clearly expecting a few happy clappers with rattles turning up. We were given the corner and uncovered stand opposite the dug outs and throughout the game much verbal hatred was directed towards their substitute arch skate tosser Biley (in the twilight of his career), to a level where he disappeared up the tunnel (excuse the pun) at one point after arguing with his manager when he threatened to bring him on in the second half. After the game there was an large scale (though minor) altercation on the way back to the station in a public park which saw the Seaweed running away like so many mincing Linford Christies and a belated cavalry charge by Sussex's finest, who had arrived too late for effective crowd control with Saints fans exiting en masse through a hedge. The current vitriol from the Seaweed is obviously fear based what with them in a position that they could never have imagined at the start of the season. We shouldn't deny them their moment in the sun, rather look on them as a metaphorical Jimmy Krankie - a camp, comedic irritation that you wouldn't pay to watch through choice...

Just been speaking to a good friend who is a Palace fan (very nice man, high IQ) and he assures me that the real rivalry is between the Seaweed and Fulham. This is due to Fulham's use of the nickname 'the Cottagers' which historically has been attributed to the Seaweed. Apparently, this issue is a very sore point...

Great signing in this league, and not even a dink in the transfer budget!...

For me the article reads as if the cold snap has permitted a few extra 'strategy' meetings between NC and NA. I get the impression that Mystic Nic has read Nigel his 2011 horoscope...

Spot on initial post Gemmel, I think that there were a good few of us making these points when Pardew departed. The honeymoon period for NA was always going to resemble a weekend at a seedy B&B in Clacton, and that if we weren't genuinely challenging by the early part of the window both players and fans are going to have itchy feet. Another point that was made at that time was that whilst NA could be a good long term solution, the caveat was obvious - that Cortese would be unlikely to allow that time if success was not forthcoming (we will wait and see but the 'automatic promotion is unthinkable' comment may offer a clue). I fear that unless Saints bounce back very strongly over the next two games January could make the Killing Fields look like Mary Poppins...

I think that in the circumstances they should bring in Bing Crosby...
