No-one is 'very' unique; you are either unique or you are not.

Moyes watching Cagliari v Juventus today - allegedly interested in Astori.

Yes. Just scored a goal described on BBC as "you will not see a better goal than that all season". HTH

Have you any idea what 'condone' means? Sorry, silly question, you obviously haven't a clue.

Have Aston Villa complained? Their first 3 games:- Arsenal (A) Chelsea (A) Liverpool (H) 2 tough consecutive away games in 4 days to start and a 3rd tough game, all within 8 days. Moyes should shut up.

Dowie: 30 goals in 122 games - 1 goal every 4.07 games. Shearer: 23 goals in 118 games - 1 goal every 5.13 games. Christ, what a ****e player that Shearer was. How did we ever get a record fee from Blackburn for him! Moron.

The point I was trying to make (with a rather poor attempt at irony, admittedly) has clearly gone over your head.

Let's hope we don't get too high a profile or other clubs might start taking our youth products.

But nothing like as good as Matthew Le Tissier, Alan Shearer, Rod Wallace and Paul Rideout that was an actual front line and which beat Liverpool out of sight the year they won the league by 9 points. Paul Rideout definitely qualifies as 'un-sung hero' but someone called Nick Holmes an un-sung hero; he wasn't. Surely most of those watching Saints during that period will number him in their all-time favourites and his scoring record for a left-sided midfielder who was often required to play in the back line speaks for itself. Likewise David Armstrong also often referred to as 'un-sung' and also among my personal favourites. All-time favourite? - Mick Channon

This forum is now pointless - who wants to read you going on and on and ****ing on? I really haven't got the time to trawl through page after page of your ****ing drivel to see if anyone has said something worth reading. Goodbye, folks.

'Designed', my arse! Someone got their nan to sew a couple of handkerchiefs onto an old Forest shirt.

Fat? Possibly, but certainly not as fat as team-mate Neil Shipperley. Git? No. Lucky to play for Saints when they had a decent - and proper - kit.

It wasn't an interview therefore agenda was purely his/Cortese's. He just faced camera in standing position and spouted away in Spanish. Looked like an advert for SFC. Time he was able to contribute something in English. Cortese's puppy. Of course Saints' season cannot be discussed without mentioning Adkins.

.....and fancy not recognising Sir Alf.

Chivers between Beasant & Crouch

32,070 is not a record for a league match at St Mary's so what is the record that it creates?

"... playing well enough not to win this..." What the **** does that mean?!

Malcolm Waldron. And to the poster who said Steve Williams was 'hugely under-rated' I would say he certainly was NOT. Most who saw him rated him extremely highly - and not just Saints' fans. And his absence from one game cost us a FA cup final appearance.

Sorry, doesn't qualify - not an ex-player.

I heartily agree, in fact I said as much, There is, however, correct English and there is incorrect, ignorant English. 'Invariable' still means 'without variation' i.e. always. It has not evolved to mean 'usually' but is only used thus by the ignorant. Similarly, 'lay' has always been transitive verb taking an object - you lay something e.g. bricks, eggs, plans for the future - and has not evolved to be the same as the intransitive verb 'to lie'. No, I am not an English teacher but I can clearly teach you to better speak (a split infinitive there, just for you) my native language.

Actually, I think you'll find it was NOT slang in 1942. It is the American term for a railway station which seems to have become common usage in an age when kids learn their language from the television, video games or whatever rather than being taught English at school. Probably the same people who say "lay" when they mean "lie", "like" when they mean "such as" and "invariably" when they mean "more often than not". HTH

Fact!? Where do you get your facts from - are you sure it's not Andrew son of Sven i.e. Andrew Sven's son or, in other words, not that much different.?

A lot of people think Ferguson is one of the best British managers ever but have you ever heard him give his opinion on the telly or radio? Never talks anything but gob****e. The radio ask Lawrie his opinion about what's happening at Saints as only MLT has done anything since that has raised Saints profile nationally to the same extent - except, of course, our laughing-stock profile.

Presumably because it will be quicker to get a team that speaks Spanish than a manager who can speak English.

Two questions: If Cortese thought the defence was not good enough did he really think changing the manager was the answer? Does Cortese really think the best way to chose a manager is to use 'a network of agents'? Incredible.
