whelk

Cant remember a division containing so may teams with a major hooligan element: West Ham Millwall Cardiff Bristol City Leeds Birmingham Portsmouth Leicester -just about make the list to make it a third of all teams in the div

apologies if missed a thread on this but anyone know if we are for or against? http://www.football365.com/story/0,17033,8652_6971725,00.html Never good to be in agreement with Ken Bates

wow this could run and run until all possible predictions are selected - 400 + post There's inane close season banter but this takes it to a new level!

3 horse If you want to bet teh 2 horse ie to lift the cup utd are 13/8

Love DC so brilliant news and he has earned it. Guess heavily weighted on appearance bonuses. Mind I have no idea what we are paying our players

Pls stop calling them Bompey - it is embarassing

Citeh are just as creative than Utd and fans. And poznan is hilarious for now when used by the club that played them. Beware of imitations - embarassing

I get the opposing view that you subscribe to but communications in business is about goodwill not absolute truth as yes I know they will be on sale at some point and tbh the cost is not an issue to me- I will buy one whatever. The point is we have a club communications officer and there is obviously little to report on at this time of year so they could easily put a line or so on the tickets like on OS saying the likelihood of when info will be announced so that those who are interested in such info are satisfied. Last year was worse as they had something along the lines of keep checking the website. Instead we get some idiot teasing about 'big news' like some 12 yo school kid saying they have a secret but cant tell you yet - pathetic. And after that it was non news - manager in post for 8 months has contract - wow there's a shock!

No i dont think - pathetic disregard for fams not to have anything on site even if announcement will be made end of May. Same last year and you mugs lap it up. Communication is dreadful at the club and that idiot Sibley with his teasing tweets. We are Saints we do as we're told and are grateful

who can tell that the close season approaches! anyone else notice the final credits on Gardener's World are now are now 1.3 seconds shorter and one of the and one if you look closely you cna make an anagram of Nigel Adkins - although this does require using 3 or so names;-)

ahhhhhh only thought him cos jayboothroyd mentioned him in a tweete about alzheimers. Bastard!

Apologies if already been posted but Rickie is on Twitter @Rickie_Lambert http://twitter.com/#!/Rickie_Lambert and seems to be value ie speaks his mind, eg this from thsi afternoon: "Then when Rooney (Just as an example) messes something up they cream themselves over him. Laughable" and "The team I'd least like to see to go up is MK Dons. Firstly they should change their name from the 'Dons' to just Milton Keynes FC" Hear hear! All Matty seems to do is retweet

Customised for saints: ooooooooh rhaidi jaidi he's a monster and cannot pass he's superb at headers and wont let forwards pass he swaggers around west quay displaying his massive great big arse. oooooh rahaidi jaidi original: Oooooh Balotelli He is a (our?) striker, he’s good at darts Got an allergy to grass but when plays he’s f***ing class He drives around moss side with a wallet full of cash Repeat. ooh and i am ****ed btw

And the point of this thread is?! 30

Although helps atmosphere of course the guys who do most of the singing are there for the occasion more than for the football hence can be embarrassing. it was same with Milton Road lot - football snobbery i know but they weren't the cool kids and they sung stupid songs back then in the 80s Now this is a good song:

Could there be a ban on comments like 'you clearly know nothing about football' So childish people getting upset when someone disagrees - FFS it is a forum you'd have nothing to talk about if you all agreed. For me Lambert isn't mobile enough for Championship. I love him of course but it is a fickle old game. Also think so many football fans are sheep and follow commentators or what their mates say. Also you have the phoneys who like to be contrary for the teh benefit of their ego. Look at Carrick getting praise after a good game in Schalke. " poor games and opinion will change back I was moaning about Rickie at H/T at MK Dons game and look what a fool he made me feel - i wasn't told i knew nothing about football tho! Also the initial post saying he had more attempts, shots etc - pointless stat as if he his playing centre forward and has most appearances that would clearly be expected - what other player is expected to have beaten him on that stat? Barnard, Guly, Connolly?

my final post for 24 hours - does anyone have previous Saints Web players of the season? Must have been Rickie last year?

And Echo Chief Sports Writer votes Harding. Comical

I see someone voted Hammond!

Some Portsmouth fans where i work don't seem to love us much. Stems from a strike or something

@Chrismarsden4 is a fake although he fooled Matty for a while

@mattletiss7 - confirmed by Kevin Davies to be genuine

Not a red herring but incorrect. A red herring is a clue that points you in the wrong direction. Just saying

Can we have some musical notes against it - i cant get the tune from the words

Guessing not too many real life friends alpine?
