We're gonna get dicked 3-0 and this place will be in meltdown as Dalek, Barry and Turkish gleefully run riot on every thread...

3 down for 51 - Aussies will win from here...

I agree with Minty. They need to be really transparent about the rules of over-ruling or sustaining a decision on the field. I want England to win, but after decisions like that one, I don't want to win like that, it doesn't feel like winning.

wolfswinkle sounds like the dog's bollix (pun intended)

Jimmy Saville looks to be excited that the ball boys are doing a lap of honour...

My Dad was in the Army and we lived near Andover back at the start of the '80s. He took me to a few games at the Dell and I saw the Channon wave, the rest is history. We moved away and ended up in North Yorkshire, so we went to away days at Newcastle, Sunderland, Middlesbro, Leeds, York City (cup) and Scarboro (cup). I then went to Uni in Aberdeen and then moved back Newcastle to do more Uni. Moved out to Canada in 2001 and I have yet to visit St Mary's.

I'm over the river in Aylmer. Might need to change my username to distinguish you from me...

Why a minimum? Why not "stop personal digs"? The level of outright nastiness on most threads in this forum has spoiled many a good football discussion.

Surprised he didn't scuff the shot...

That is a weak trolling effort, even for you (mind you if the Dowie/Hurlock thread is anything to go by, I'm not surprised).

That's better from Alpine and he's gone!!!

Trott gone on 48! 124/4 C'mon Alpine, where the **** are you?

I know I was being sarcastic. Those two are a credit to the forum and humanity.

Another thread ruined by the tag-team bullying of Sanchez and Turkish. Pathetic really.

Fingers in plenty of pies, Saints are doing it the right way. When you apply for a job do you just send one application at a time to jobs that you think you are good enough for or do you send out plenty of applications at the same time perhaps to a few that you think are unlikely but might bite?

Brilliant performance the pressure must have been immense. Well done Andy, he has done Britain proud.

A couple of bites for Turkish already and I for one and licking my lips in anticipation of what Dalek's schtick will be this year... Alpine on mid-season form too.

For me it's the admiral kits of the 70s. I wish they could re-create that in a modern strip. Looking at the other team's kits our Hummel (wide stripes) is virtually identical to Sunderland's Hummel from 1991-94 and I recall that both Villa and Coventry (as well as Denmark) wore the same template as us in the first hummel strip, so it's not just nowadays that they work off a template.

People seem to have forgotten that in the last few months of Strachan's tenure we were actually pretty poor, players showing a lack of fitness and mental strength.

Phew, thought Dune and his tough mates had got you mid-sentence...

pasture's new what?

Had they done just that, there'd still be *****ing and whining about the shade of red, thickness of stripes, cost, number of stripes, detail badge, numbers etc. People love to have a good moan and Saintsweb as a whole seems to excel at it...

We went away from stripes for most of the 80s so why is that a problem now? [disclaimer: I don't consider the rank xerox/air florida kits or the Danish hummel to be "traditional stripes".]

Clever ploy by the club, those wanting stripes will be frothing at the mouth to buy a shirt when they finally bring them back....with a hefty hike in the price...
