Golac's Cunning Stunts

Do they not then run the risk of him opting to stay and see his contract out and leave for nothing at the end of next season?

There's a stunning penalty miss on that Mirror link given above http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/everton-target-jay-rodriguez-the-burnley-867931

Nice one thanks. Amazing how the memory fades. I vaguely remember now being worried how saints were ever going to finish 5th bottom to avoid the drop that year.

Probably a stupid question, but how come Blackburn managed to play 4 more games in the PL than Newcastle?

If anyone wants a good cheering up this morning go read the spuds reactions as it happened. Pure class! Pg 32 onwards http://www.tottenhamhotspurs.tv/players-lounge/28126-bayern-munich-support-thread-****ing-do-chelsea-32.html

"Either this is a wind up or you're very stupid." In response I would say either this is a wind up or you are very stupid or very arrogant. Very probably all 3.

Looking forward to being able to pick some saints players. SRL and Lallana might be cheap and well worth a punt.

Llorente from Athletic Bilbao please :-)

I remember being on here 7 years ago too. I swore I would remember Keane doing his thumbs down. Well today is the day I forget. Well done to all the boys - I am emotional and over the moon. Micky Channon on Twitter - "Southampton Football Club. Brilliant stuff. Nigel, the lads and most important of all the Saints fans. Have a great celebration" Love you Micky. Love you Saints :-)

Anyone else see the stuff there about signing Collins from Stoke? Southampton are set to sign STOKE CITY’s Welsh international centre-half Danny Collins, 31, on loan for their promotion bid. Collins – back from a spell at IPSWICH – had a medical yesterday before signing and the move could turn into a permanent one.

That would be the same religion that says this? "fight and slay the pagans (or infidels or unbelievers) wherever you find them" (9:5).

I had what I considered (for me anyway) a brilliant idea today. I was going to register youareall****s.com and redirect it to Poopey's main OS or a Poopey forum. When I searched, the domain has already been registered, so I can't. Anyone know if you can redirect a domain you own to a domain you don't own? Thanks

No I haven't assumed anything. I was honestly asking whether or not you think that cortese, Adkins etc have considered the risk of paying what is agreeably an extortionate amount of money on a player versus the potential reward of it paying off? And yes I am fully aware that"no other club has spent £10m on a player to get promoted" And that we have a very good chance of getting promoted anyway etc etc. That's why it's called a calculated risk

As I said go apply for a job writing headlines for the sun.

The person being hysterical is you my friend. I was trying to ask a logical question. Nowhere have I "screamed" that we should buy hooper. I was simply asking why our owners, who are successful business people, and thus well acquainted with taking calculated risks, wouldn't consider buying hooper for £10m with a potential payout of £100m further down the line? You should write headlines for the sun. Calm down.

Care to name the cheaper options who will get us to the prem? I do think we need to bolster our campaign. Paying £10m for a striker who scores the goals that turn the losses into draws and draws into wins that eventually mean the difference between promotion and staying in the championship would be money well spent

Why is it silly? £10m for a striker who gets you over the finishing line into the premier league is money well spent. Plus, our owners are supposedly billionaires and should be well versed in the merits of investing in assets. Ie taking calculated risks

If we have the money available and it isn't going to break the club in any way, then £4m is a gamble well worth taking. The guy looks like a natural goalscorer.

Acts of terrorism most probably have their roots in brainwashing that naturally follows on from "spouting sectarian bull****". As a greater man than you or I said "an eye for an eye will make us all blind" that's why I would never welcome either of those teams down to the English leagues

Oh dear fail I'm afraid. Giving lessons in grammar and you don't know the difference between your and you're

Or as acceptable as the vast majority of Celtic fans referring to Rangers as Huns. This is why I would never welcome their teams down here. Sectarian bull****. Let them have each other in their ****ty sweaty league.

If the sweats go ahead and vote for their independence, that will put a final end to talk of a "British League".

Go and watch one then mate. Doesn't sound like you're suited to watching a football match.

You make me laugh. Where have I said that "ANYONE in AOC's shoes would" not have done the same? You're the one who is naive I'm afraid.

Personally I think you are just being an Internet warrior. Booing players who used to play for your club has happened since football was invented. It has Nothing to do with him being a teenager. (Note - must not boo teenagers when I go to football matches - CanadaSaint says it makes me look immature). Stick to Ice Hockey mate.
