Golden Balls

looks like I was pretty close... Chancellor stated that duty would rise 2% above inflation as planned from midnight on Sunday. He also stated that 2% above inflationary rises would be extended for two years from 2013. He also said that anomalies in cider duty would be corrected by a 10% above infnflationary increase. In September a new cider definition will be introduced to tax stronger cider 'more appropriately'.

Apparently... 10% extra on cider 2% on spirits and 50p minimum per unit. However they may take the step to freeze tax on alcohol as increasing it may actually reduace the overall amount of tax taken due to people drinking less.

Who told you that?

I used to play Ice Hockey back in the day. No bad injuries myself, but one day my mum was cleaning my room and reached up to the top shelf in my wardrobe and one of my ice skates fell down onto her big toe, slicing it straight off. Could have been worse. My stack of hidden porn mags could have fallen out and broken her leg!!

Things change. Get used to it. I would change 2 things about the match day 'entertainment'. Get rid of Stuart Dennis, stop playing that awful OWTS remix!

Still not got mine...

I'm still trying to get my head around the first bit...

Can't find it on iplay yet. When is it up?

I'm sorry, but with respect, you're wrong! It was right infront of me and Fonte was being fouled. How a free kick was given the other way was unbelieveable! Also, the Barnard one was quite clearly a tug. He bottled it as it was the last man meaning it would have to be a red card. And just before that there was the shove in the back of Puncheon as he was about to control the ball. AP went mental about that! The incident with Harding was a joke. He booked the player meaning he saw what happened. And what happened was violent conduct. Therefore, red card. You can't just book him because he didn't cause any damage from lashing out. Seems he would have only sent him off if he knocked him out! I've been going 19 years and that is the worst ref I have ever seen. Don't think I've ever heard such loud and constant chants about a ref before either.

One in the hat looks like Ralph Little. One of the others looks like a guy I see at most games, but isn't (apparently)

Take it this is the Italian 'Fan Zone'

haha brilliant! Noticed the camera goes through a red light in Banister road, going towards Bedford place. Naughty!

And a 1.30pm kick off. Not a lot of drinking time....

'Cos it's not cool to celebrate unless it's against pompey of the champions league final by the looks of things. Yes it's not a big coup, but after what we've been through and the lack of trophies I will ever see Saints win, why not celebrate winning a trophy?

Imagine if supporters from other clubs that entered this comp saw this thread! What a bunch of ungreatful bunch of sh1ts we seem! I do think an open top bus tour would be over the top. But we should most definitely celebrate it IF (IF) we win it!

A low key 'parade' before a home game will do.

I'll guess 10.36am

I also saw them along Town Quay. Was hoping they also had them around the High Street.

I think he still doesn't understand

Apart from his lack of ability, pace, strength, size and attitude.

How does something like that go unnoticed for so long? And why do you never hear of them randomly exploding?
