  1. It's always talked about because it gave the underdogs the win, but what always surprises me is that they never seem to talk about the quality of the goal. Outside of the area, two defenders bearing down on him, balls behind and a half volley in to about the only place where he would score (Angle wise)..... its a cracker
  2. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-29427843 Tom and Jerry - FFS

  4. She tied a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree blah blah blah She said it's for Southampton when they go to Wembley Would love someone to know the actual song....used to watch people singing this instead of the match - But time has not been kind and I cant remember the ******* song
  5. Ha ha brilliant - I have to say I really enjoyed it, 17 year old daughter wasn't so sure, but she did watch the whole thing. Thought the actor playing Neil was superb

    I'll wait for the abuse, but try TK Max If you are lucky enough to find something in your size, you can pick up a 400 - 500 quid suit for around a ton. Only got lucky once, but always check when I am in town
  9. Exactly the same.... Eveybody in house thinks ive gone mad, but have been waiting for this since 1983. Go old gracefully .... Not a ******* chance
  10. Lucky b@stard

  13. It is the Apaches that will do the damage. Read a fantastic book on the selection process and how they are protected when they come home.
  14. David Axcell...... I have a **** memory but will never forget that ref...... Should have done time for we he did that match
  15. CL - I never for one minute, thought you were lying, but as Trousers alluded to, it all depends on who you are talking too; You speak to a senior pro who hasn't had his contract renewed and the club is on it's knees, don't know what they are doing and everything is going to dog sh!te You speak to an apprentice who has just been given a pro contract and its the best club in the World and everything is professional and hunky dory. That's pretty much how it is.....just all depends on who you talk to on the day. The one thing I would add is that there is more bullsh!te and rumour within the club than there is on this board.....and that's going some.
  16. Go and buy a goodfellas pizza - On the back they have two for one entry into Alton towers and 50% off the hotel...I am sure groupon or hot UK deals have other offers as well. Kind Regards Martin Lewis :)
  17. http://fansonline.net/portsmouth/mb/view.php?id=560147 We even get a mention :) :) So November the first eh? As robinson is building the store himself, he might need some fairly big cahoonahs to start splashing the cash given Tesco'c plight. http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/news/business/local-business/government-gives-approval-to-tesco-at-fratton-park-1-6319348
  18. Just don't take the postcard off the glass with a wasp in it.
  19. That's an interesting point Wes, as I don't think we are quite done yet and January or next summer could prove "testing"; 1) Jay Rod Still not signed a new contract, suggests he wants a big move 2) Morgan will go at some point (Regardless how professional he is being at the moment) 3) Rumours around Wanyama (Did the non goal celebration tell us anything?) 4) Clyne must surely be attracting the "big boys" 5) Cork will be out of contract in the summer 6) Tadic will be acquiring a whole host of suitors based on his performances to date I hope that doesn't come over as "doom mongering" and obviously we wont lose them all, but at least if some do move on, we can have the confidence, suitable replacements will be found.
  20. Apparently yes - Strange decision from Saints IMO http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/11492273.Saints_allow_Artur_Boruc_to_become_Capital_One_Cup_tied/?ref=twt&utm_content=Southampton,+Saints,
  21. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/11492273.Saints_allow_Artur_Boruc_to_become_Capital_One_Cup_tied/?ref=twt&utm_content=Southampton,+Saints, Saints allowing Boruc to be cup tied ......strange
  22. Fully accepting that his levels of power have varied between the two boards he has served with / under, I was thinking last night that the one constant (If we can go with the slightly cheesy phrase) of our Markus / Katrina "Journey" is "Les Reed". He seems to have many detractors within the fan base (And players according to Adam Blackmore) and was actually much maligned by the press over the summer exodus, but, the reality is that as "Director of Football" he has overseen two promotions, prevented relegation, top 8 finish and an impressive start to a third Premier campaign. He has sat above four managers (I can't remember if he was actually here when Pardew was, but assuming that he was) (And fully understand that MP was probably more a Cortese hire, but he would have been part of the process) which have all delivered success, whilst at the same time playing to a set style (The Southampton way), integrating 10 (??) young Academy players, seeing three players receive England call ups and many others for other countries, managed an unprecedented transition of player sales achieving absolute top money in each case and signed players that would historically have been perceived "Out of League". Of course the role of "Director of Football" varies at each club and I think it is fair to say that Les's role here carries more power than most, but from a CV perspective what he has effectively overseen, is incredible and probably unrivalled. I think it's also worth adding he has probably rebuilt his reputation (Following Charlton) at SFC and he may well be riding the success of others, but here and now, he seems the "One Constant" in some our of most successful years in the clubs history.
  23. Steady nut jobs...... Don't jump to any conclusions http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/comment/citydiary/11115765/City-Diary-Tesco-mothballs-22m-Cambridgeshire-store-costing-250-jobs.html
