Let's not forget that, based on performances, Adkins is currently the 2nd best manager in England.

Yeah I'm not arguing that it's not a good thing, it is, I rate Adkins, but people over speculated as to what the big news would be. I came home from football to the rumours that we were signing Michael Owen FFS! I guess if people build themselves up to expect 'news' like that then they would be disappointed. FWIW I also think a lot of people would have liked to have heard news about season ticket prices. I personally thought it was going to be about that new Director of European Recruitment.

Ok, maybe that was the fans going into rumour overdrive. Are you on twitter? Was mental on there last night. Michael Owen was signing apparently.

Yeah, it is great news, but I think a fair few are annoyed at how that Jordan Sibley built it up to be the biggest news since Kevin Keegan signing, when actually it's just your run-of-the-mill contract extension.

It's funny that it's acceptable when we do it, but when news comes out that Wenger is interested in our 16 year old academy star Luke Shaw, it's criminal and Wenger is the antichrist.

I would but I'm working.

Seems Cortese was persuaded to take the lads to Vegas whilst a little tipsy on the way back from Plymouth.

I'd rather have my season ticket to be honest.

Is this out of Cortese's pocket?

Meh, fair enough. Seeing Lee Barnard singing it was quality, I must admit.

Do you remember how we laughed at Bournemouth for singing that. I just hope P*mpey aren't laughing at us.

Shíttest song - 'We do what we want' or 'Dirty skate bastards, we're coming for you'. Almost as bad as Bournemouth's 'we're going to St. Mary's, que sera sera'.

Mine's called Seagate Freeagent or something like that. 700gb in space. Very good. Can't have been to expensive since I got it for Christmas one year.

Excellent, always good to hear. Future captain potential then... Do agree about Fonte, he'd certainly have my backing for that role.

Just had a microwave curry. It was nice. Nothing on the Shapla though.

I think Morgan is a quality player, and will not need to raise his game much to fit in in the Championship. Don't know much about his leadership qualities, but I'm sure he will be a mainstay in the team for years to come (if he stays). Also a nice bloke, met him outside Oceana at 2.30am once.

I really, really want a curry now.

Shapla in Alresford was 12th in the Independent's top 50 curry houses. It's goooood.

He's not a skate or a Walsall fan.

Is it true that two fierce rivals (such as Saints and P*mpey) cannot play each other within the first or last two weeks of the season?

Only 89 days until the start of the new season.

This thread should technically be called "11.05pm in Yorkshire".
