  1. It is a horrendous tragedy and is being reported but the plane got so much coverage due to the unknown. If it had just hit a mountain then woudl have been halfway down the news.
  2. Yeah all offers will be based on a newspaper article. When in proper negotiations they produce the Guardian article and say ha we know you have money so cough up.
  3. Interesting so many see so much in what looked to me like a pretty sensible chap with some decent perspective on club. Of course some will want a Risdale type dreamer but sound like we are in safe hands and not sure what others want him to say? A smart man is never going to make comments he can't back up like we will keep MP/Shaw at all costs.
  4. Do the club publish revenue from ticket sales? Quick mental calculation is that whole season's sales would not come to £30m. Whilst every player has their price and Shaw's has probably gone up by £15 m this season, they could just think of this as a bonus to give back to customers in reduced ticket prices. Of course they won't and there is again going to be a rise.
  5. I can watch every game in near perfect HD. ST for years but going to consider as point of principle as anything else. Awash with money and expect fans to stump up more. And more depressing the amount of mugs who say 'not bad'.

    BT Sport:

    We are so much better 3pm on a Saturday.

    Dani Osvaldo

    Calm yourself? What you on about? Oh and btw the way you are completely wrong. He has had no shots on target in 7 Serie A games. Why would not having a shot on target in one game he didn't complete be of note? You can find things out on the internet as well you know.http://espnfc.com/team/squad/_/id/111/league/ita.1/juventus?cc=5901

    Sorry mate I would believe Paolo Bandini over you. And think he has better contacts than you to be aware of such things.

    Dani Osvaldo

    Sure there must be a thread somewhere but his form seems to still be dipping. Subbed off again tonight and hasn't had a shot on target in his 7 Juve games apparently. In danger of losing Italy place as well so doesn't bode well for us getting our money back.
  11. I reckon they maybe in drop on Tuesday. Rochdale are carving up that league so win by 3 goals very possible and Northampton do Wimbledon. They were 7/1 to be relegated this week. Still too good to be try and can't see them going.
  12. Funny thing is they could even get banged up for such things. These gob****es probably didn't see this coming http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2013/oct/31/fans-lawrence-abuse-song-jailed
  13. without doubt. was at game and remmeber the Sunday papers on Saturday evening and no one could believe it. Saints fans singing 96 dead it should have been more on train back from Palace. We have such great fans
  14. why is there even a suggestion that Cork is doubtful? Thought he was out for weeks
  15. Van Gaal is a done deal apparently. Paul Doyle watches lots of our games - nice to see someone questioning what is the better job. Guardian have best football journalism by far.
  16. semi-retirement has changed him
  17. this sort of thing helps fans more. http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/liverpool-fc-reveal-season-ticket-6858841 The additional cost or reduced revenue would be more than compensated by goodwill towards 'the brand' IMO. Crest and kit isnt overly important to me as has always been changeable but will not be convinced one chairman over another has the fans interest at heart. Policy may appear to change for the better but still only doing it with an eye to increase revenue not because they care about the opinion of fans.
  18. Got Xbox One yesterday based on Titanfall reviews. Bit p1ssed off no SkyGO app - means will still need to keep the 360. Fear I will experience buyers remorse as doesn't seem to have too much going for it.
  19. Not sure I will ever get over it
  20. So many of these threads seem just a forum for people to boast about their lives and how hectic London is etc and how they have outgrown the little province. Or maybe I am just becoming too cynical. People can pin so much kudos to where they live but reality friends and family what determines happiness not visiting a bohemian coffee shop over the soulless West Quay. Once you settle down with a family one suburb is similar to another.
  21. For appropriateness the Mrs Robinson song should be sung about Markus surely?
  22. I did have an accurate figure but if you are then saying deduct dead people it all gets too complicated.

    Puncheon

    Embarrassing song. Can't believe collectively how many ***ts sang that at Palace. Nothing sung to Sloop John B can amuse though as so tiresome. Try using Brown Girl in the Ring for more I say. Think Guly gets stick for being ineffective so often, not for not being as 'colourful' as Puncheon.
  24. This was posted after 3 games and yes there was concerns over passing http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?46583-Wanyama-arise-Sir-Neil-Lennon
  25. Not much love for bbc3 although the 'Our War' documentaries were terrific. Doesn't mean that sort of programme won't still get made though. 2012/13 costs
