Playing into the hands of the terrorists, giving them the publicity they want. Much of the news coverage of everything to do with ISIS is excessive and gives them the stage they are after.

Saints Sign Filip Djuricic on loan from Benfica
Manuel replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
As you say about Tadic on the left, a good example was the first Ipswich game. Not comfortable at all on the right, kept crossing with the outside of his left boot. Looked awkward and wasn't effective. -
Saints Sign Filip Djuricic on loan from Benfica

Can't work it out about Tadic. Since he came here he started strong but seems to have been stifled. Whether it's a confidence thing or if he's been given pitch-instructions he's not comfortable with. A good player, would be a shame if he just faded away. -
He has improved since he's been with us, like most keen players do. An excellent player and an excellent signing who will no doubt get even better.

They can replace it with their own morality, the morality inherent within us all. Take responsibility for their own lives, talk to others or look to philosophy if they need help. Human society is quite capable of looking after itself without the man-made religious laws putting restrictions on it, denying people their own morality by handing the rules to them in a book and forcing obedience upon them. I'm not saying anything can happen overnight, but with ever increasing education and information I'm hopeful we as people can put all this stupidity behind us.

I people choose to follow some sort of moral code based on a religious model, then that's their business and good luck to them. But really, in this day and age, I'm surprised if any sensible person truly believes in all that supernatural, hell, heaven, all seeing gods, power of prayer and all that.

Did he intend to drop Barrow after he made contact with the ball? I didn't think so at the time and looking at that replay I'm still not convinced. Not a red.

Running outside. Gets you outdoors, easy to progress, gets you fit, doesn't cost anything, don't need any special kit, no special weather requirements.

Well no, I suppose not. But every society in the world has differing views about what should be seen in public and what shouldn't. I agree that the 'rules' on this should constantly be questioned. Why are we ashamed of certain parts of our bodies? Where did these taboos come from? As it is though we live in a society where boobs on display are seen as porn, yet we are happy to print it in national newspapers, whereas equivalent man porn isn't. And that's a poor signal to send to young people, boys and girls. A double standard.
-
Topless men are not equivalent to topless women, that's pretty obvious. A male arse is equivalent to a woman's boobs in terms of risqueness I'd say, hence the arse photo I posted.
-
If it matters so little, I would ask the men, if your favourite newspaper had a young naked man on page 3, would you be alright with it, every day?
-
It also leaves all the more room for their excellent political comment.
-
If the paper was marketed as a lads-rag then I'd be fine with it, but it's supposed to be a standard national tabloid. As such, and as a guy who has a daughter, I find the page 3 naked woman's presence demeaning, and I'm sure young women who happened upon it would find it ridiculous.

Geographical convenience, and because my dad did.

Most of those that have left us seem to be having a dip in form. If players improve at this club I'd say the credit lies as much with the set up of the club and ethos of training and improvement, rather than solely with whichever manager we have at the time. It's the Southampton way, or whatever.
-
I really think he's come on this past year, his skills especially. Didn't see the Newcastle game but other than that I'd say he's one of our best players overall.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-30847327 It is being covered, was on News at 10 last night, but apparently due to its location there is little footage. But yeah, very under-reported imo.

Thinking 6th but hoping for 4th. Would be nice to finish above Man U, Liverpool and Spurs.
-
Fair enough then, I couldn't find it on any web front pages, where they hold many pictures of other news events. Providing it's there somewhere then, even if you have to do a bit of digging.

Nobody appears to be printing it. The terrorists have won.

I will be sat in my armchair, but with you in spirit.
