  1. When premier league football is on but the lead story is a women's Cup semi
  2. Well I live nearby so see it multiple times a day and I've never seen either with a customer. It's not like it's some sort of mad conspiracy theory is it.
  3. How does a barbers or a mini mart with no customers in an area where there is zero demand for either and where you never see anyone getting there haircut or buying anything continue to operate for months or even years at a time with lavish fixtures and fittings and with very expensive cars parked outside by the operators? As the article says, the number of barbers has doubled in England in the last ten years, why do you think that is? All these businesses currently being raided fit the exact same profile as the ones that have sprung up on Shirley High Street - that is run by a foreigner who come in seemingly out of the blue with very expensive and lavish shops with little or zero customers that continue to operate. The new mini mart and the vape shop opposite it in particular haslve no logical reason to exist and I haven't seen a single customer in them at any time of the day (and judging by the shelves nothing looks to have been bought either.) There's no reasonable alternative for their continued existence.
  4. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3677xzk56no Absolutely extraordinary that this hasn't been done earlier. Shirley High Street to take a local example has loads of new Turkish barbers, a few vape shops and mobile phone shops that are very obviously involved in criminal activity and a new mini mart at the top which is completely unnecessary and never has any customers. Mad that this has been allowed to operate for years now with everyone knowing what they are.
  5. Agreed. Edwards, wood and then an experienced newbie would suit us very nicely. Tanganga might be worth a look.
  6. If that was the case then I don't see why it would have been sensible to blow our wage structure out of the water for one player who wouldn't have kept us up anyway. Even if we had matched Ipswich there was no guarantee he would have come here anyway.
  7. Delap turned us down though. I see no indication that it was because we wouldn't pay the transfer fee.
  8. Actually it's mostly who Spors wants and he has no track record of failure so far.

    Israel

    I'm comfortable with waiting until the investigation has concluded before steaming in with criticism. Otherwise I'd just be criticising the IDF for some imagined future crime of being unduly lenient towards the perpetrator of a crime before they have actually done it. Any member of the IDF who is judged to have committed a crime should be properly dealt with the same as any other army during a war.

    Israel

    Looks like the troops involved gave a false account of what happened, conflicting evidence then emerged and the IDF subsequently admitted fault and promised a thorough investigation. I'd be expecting that sort of response from any nation involved in a conflict of this sort.
  12. Bit awkward for some of the MPs criticising this that they also supported the banning of an MP from another country to the UK as well as calling for Trump to be banned.
  13. Then you're a bloody idiot. How's that working out for Leeds?

    Russia

    The statement "if it were Israeli kids getting killed in such numbers by Muslims each day" is one divorced of all context and is thus simplistic in the extreme.

    Russia

    If only life and conflict situations were so simplistic.

    Russia

    You heard it here first guys. Israel are the equivalent of Russia.

    Russia

    I don't think it's because the victims are Muslim. It's got more to do with the people on the other side of the conflict.
  18. Of course he would help but jwp, Lavia and Tino would have helped last time and all of them were sold and ultimately it didn't stop us from getting promoted.
  19. I'd love him to stay but if he goes that isn't going to prevent us from getting promoted.
  20. I genuinely think a season in the championship would be beneficial for him. If however we are offered 50 million + I think he would be too valuable for us to turn that down.
  21. I'm not a huge fan of selectively taking shit bits of a city and presenting them as representative of the experience everywhere. Southampton is nowhere near the best place to live in the UK but it's nowhere near the worst either. We have lovely green open spaces, some reasonable areas for entertainment and we are also close to other wonderful areas of Hampshire. Certainly there's a lot more rundown areas in the UK despite our drawbacks.
  22. Nice little Brexit dividend kindly bestowed upon us by Donald. @Gloucester Saintmust be well chuffed 😎

Shows really how little we have actually improved things from last year.
