For those of us, amongst the 7,000 fans who went to Milan for the game against Inter, it may be of interest to note that there are plans to demolish San Siro stadium and build a new one on the parking lot next door, with building to start next year. San Siro is quite an iconic stadium but I guess most of us would agree that the facilities there werent the best when we visited.

Yes Bradford City away in the 6th Round wasnt a pleasant experience. We saw plenty of aggro before the game and wonder now if the hand painted white Ford Escort(?) van with Saints slogans painted in red managed to get out of the city safely. Fortunately we had a seat in the main stand (the one that was lost in the subsequent fire) and sat a few rows back from the British Heavyweight champion at the time (?? Dunn) who regularly suggested to City defenders to... 'break fucking Channon's legs'....

Fernandes was a good signing. Scienza is OK too. Its up top where there has been a significant lack of judgement.

Mike Channon????

I suppose the next question is, what team will we have next season in the Championship when our better players are sold?

I think he is currently 4th in line as a winger behind Scienza, Fellows and Robinson. Having said that he was reasonably good when he was picked to play in the Prem.

There was suggestion that Wolves were also trying to sign Che Adams which could be interesting next season if he signs for Wolves in the summer

I was only wondering what happened to him. Could be a good signing if he regains his Leeds form

IF and it is a massive IF, we have a run of decent results, the take up of tickets for the Hillsborough game will be very strong. My last visit to the ground was in 2007(?) when we conceded a last minute goal scored by their 'keeper.

Not often that the three sides in the local area all win without conceding a goal,

Interesting that Rangers have won their last 5 games and now are above Celtic in the League table.!!! I wonder why?

I guess it will be an early start for those leaving Southampton for the 12.30hrs KO, especially as the M3 is closed at the junction with the A34 all day.

What about Taylor?

Seems that India and the EU have agreed a big trade deal. I wonder what Nige and his Brexit followers make of this?

This photo should be used by all the political parties contesting the local elections to show voters how Farage and his Reform mob cosies up to Trump. The Tories deserved their shellacking at the last general Election and Labour has flip flopped since they have been in power but, to my mind, Starmer has done OK on foreign policy. I hate to say it but I would actually prefer the Lib Dems than see Farage and his cronies in charge of this country. I dont watch GB News but wonder how they are reporting Trump's absolutely disgraceful comments on the UK and other NATO country's iparticipation in Afghanistan. With hindsight our forces should have reported an outbreak of Bone Spur disease and stay at home recovering!!
