Well said. Time for a reality check!

So what happened with SRL?

Good luck to him, decent player. 1.5m though? I know he didn't have much contract left, but that's still a bit of a mugging!

You weren't in the family stand by chance?

Had a cracking game tonight, really pleased for him.

I can't even buy a ticket! Trying to get three, one for me, one for my 5yr old and one for my bro. It states you need to be a ST holder to get them now, which I'm sadly not, but then it says I can buy one only, though I can't add a U11 ticket to it, so I have to buy three all independantly and try and get them next to each other. Only when I try to do that, it decides actually, you can't buy one afterall! Doesn't give any dates for general sale, does anyone know? I've bought 14/15 match tickets, but no ST. I wouldn't panic, only they seem to be shifting way quicker than I thought they would!

Yeah, it's probably why the Ebola outbreak has happened. Sky fairies have been too busy watching the EPL and rooting for us to help the rest of the world.

It can very easily have wider reaching consequences! Hope everything's alright with the guy.

Really?! I like JWP and Reed, but they're not at his level yet. Taider I can't comment on, and Vic struggled to get his place back last time because Cork was playing so well. He's very underrated IMO.

He's doing great things for me on FIFA 14, as us. Mind you, so did the pirate.....

Ha! Cheers guys. I usually sit in the Kingsland as I'm too slow to get in on the Northam ones. Have only sat in the Itchen once, and it was almost dead to be honest. I just want them to feel the buzz, but without some fat bloke full of pie behind me shouting **** **** **** all day long If I don't have the kids there, great. Makes it more fun usually. But with the littlees I'm going to be a boring bastid! Only drawback on all of this is that their first game is likely to be one we get turned over on!

Gone for it and booked a few in the Itchen stand. I'll get one for the missus in case one of the kids kicks off and he needs to leave! Cheers all

Thinking of breaking my 5yr old kids in at a friendly, but this one could be quite busy! Any thoughts chaps? They're itching to go to a game but they're only 5 and quite little 5yr olds at that. Need to do some confidence building for them! Was hoping it'd be Scarborough or something, but BL could pull quite a big crowd!

Independant of all the goings on with AL and DO etc, I think it was the goal of the season for us. Adz only got it because the club didn't want to give it to Dani IMO. It was an awesome goal, sheer class. Sort of thing you'd see from Bergkamp, or even Le God himself.

I know it's likely to look like we've done nothing to the double-digit IQ brigade, but this is actually the most effective way of getting up his nose. Only problem if you have to carry it out with 100% accuracy, and I doubt everyone can manage that without shouting things at him!

I might be late the party, but I can't help but think this would be a good move: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2672506/Southampton-want-Burnleys-Danny-Ings-replace-Rickie-Lambert.html Potential no.7 for next season. Almost along the same veins as SRL, the guy bleeds SFC. Also a proven goal machine last season - the only risk is him cutting it at PL level.

This.

Ditto for me - as far as I can see it's singing about a work of medieval fiction "saving" our Queen. Not quite sure what that's supposed to mean, but hey. Rule Britannia for me. Or the Dambusters theme, though that might not work so well

You joke......

Top stuff, thanks Guan

I went to type Osvaldo into my tablet and it spell check changed it to invalid. Just sayin'. Seriously, I'd really love him to get his **** together, come back and take the PL by storm. Can't see it happening though.

Cracks me up! Only a few months ago the number of posts saying how we need more strikers over the summer, SRL's legs have gone etc. Now he's the most important player in the squad! Personally, I'll be completely gutted if he goes. Dunno about anyone else, but he was the forthcoming world cup highlight for me, knowing that Ads and LS are probably gone. A true club legend, but the point is that his boyhood club have come knocking for him in the twilight of his career.....you can only wish him well, surely? Don't trust the board too much, but we'll just have to sit tight I guess.

Was sat next to them. Brilliant banter from them...."Harrison Reed, Harrison Reeeeeeeeeeed! He looks like a Wotsit! He's Harrison Reed!" Caused a Dad to wheel his son to a different slot at the front, mind, but they were a good laugh! Poor old Tony Hibberd though. They crucified him!!

Sums it up for me. Still gripes when you go to watch your team and they lose, but on the whole things are still great.
