I did the very same thread regarding the two cities but it was ****ed off to the lounge for it's death. Some great points If you have time and it's called 'wake up Southampton city'

the more bad news we get the more hope I have for someone likes davies to step in and save us as he will be very sad to know that his team is crumbling. Is it a ploy by Fry to stall perhaps?

yippee, let's get some more immigrants in!

Totally agree mate. This thread can make our MP's take note that our football team is dying just like our city.

Well I find that staggering if true but I guess facts paint a better picture. I do agree entirely with some comments above that we need to sort Weston shore out and move some of the (whatever you want to call it) away from the city. I do recall some great ariel photos of the QE2 farewell and the tallships leaving our city with thousands of little boats around them. We are a major seaport so let's get the place rocking with better attractions along the shores.

Okay change the word culture and mix it with historic. You are right they have the Mary rose and whatever ships blah blah... But still that Spinaker tower is one piece of ****ing junk and yet people across the world want to see it. Strange one that, however when you see an ariel view from a helicopter of the tower with the shops, ships then it does look quite special. Rebuild ocean village, Stick a thing overlooking our seas and don't overprice it as a sailors place, build a speedway track and ice rink and then we are on a winner.

Compared to gun wharf then yes I think it lacks culture. If the city could take advantage of ocean village with a figure above the skies so that people all over the world would come and visit then I really believe it would be us attracting that billionaire Pompey have got because it's seen as the centre point of the south regarding the world cup stadium etc... I totally agree about the music scene so why not make it stronger by building a concert place like the O2 arena? Please don't tell me to live in Pompey if I'm not happy as I'm Southampton through and through. I just feel like we lack some culture and ambition thats all.

Do you have the feeling that our very own city is starting to live in the past? We had a great football team and a Superb stadium with the history of the titanic and the boat show too. I'm afraid thats all folks as the rest of it is dead! The night life is dead, The shopping centre is cack. This city is in the shadows of Portsmouth IMHO. We have one thing that could turn the whole thing around and thats Ocean Village, Rebuild it and bring the very best people around the world to our city. What do you think? Do you feel the same about our proud city too? What could you suggest to get it moving again or are you really happy the way it's going?

U2 think that?

once in a blue moon good things happen to football teams, Is this the moment for us? I very doubt it but I can understand where the rumour has come from and thats with the Fry comments and Strachan's ex link with us etc.... I put this rumour in the scale of 1 only being that I have noticed that Fry has been buying time in these takeovers and he had to wait till Strachan quit before getting it all in full motion.

Please don't turn it into a takeover or lowe out thread. ;-) If anyone has a chance could they do a top 10 supa goals on YouTube links so us fans can do a poll vote? I wish I could but the iPhone won't let me paste links.

I totally agree with you. MLT scored allsorts, Flick up freekick volleys, left foot screamer vs forest after missing the penalty, power goals like versus the toons when he hammered it past hislop, Famcy footwork goals, 38 yards dippers against flowers, weave in and outs versus Liverpool a of anfield, sublime chips vs the manks in the 6-3. What a legend he was. Finally that Yeboah volley I would put in the top 10 Ponty no doubt with the shearer one.

Some great goals no doubt I did enjoy The van persie one 2 years ago when it came off his shin. No mention of the so called best goal in beckhams chip so far??

I think Euell and BWP would be awesome in the league with a proper manager who will demand effort and more commitment to football and not the outside world etc....

I thought Glenn Johnson was the best pick myself as the Bentley one was only down to a bad keeper.

You lot really know how to take something off thread. I was looking for your greatest premiership goals scored by anyone and how our Matty had got on.

I saw match of the day last night and I thought the goal of the season choices was not that great compared to what we have seen in the past. Now if you was totally honest, What has been your best goal seen in the Premiership and where would you put Le Gods flicks against Newcastle and the long range effort against Blackburn. Myself personally would put his Flicks against Newcastle 2nd only behind Trevor Sinclairs overhead kick for Qpr from outside the area, It went right in the top corner after a deep cross. What do you reckon? The over rated bechkam fluff.... ;-)

A pair of tits???

Mark Fry admits after all these years he is struggling to find a buyer for the club, The Daily Echo reports that a spaceship was seen entering the carpark so there is hope after all.

His girlfriend and 1 year old kid still live in Nottingham which has left David feeling lost without them. He was told that he will need to knuckle down at Xmas if he wanted a club to snap him up after he asked for a move.

I thought you pay for entertainment and with the country in a finance meltdown you pick your events carefully. Blimey what was it four home wins out of 21 games? Maybe next year the team will start winning a few more before the fans come back.

Give him a whisper in his ear and say 'Please don't!'

What is there to sell? Why cant someone purchase the club and pay off the debts on a monthly basis owed to the banks etc. Once thats done then they can focus on sorting out the most important things like FOOTBALL.

Mark Fry to contact sky and the press with the statement as followed: Southampton Football Club will fold in 48 hours unless someone buys the club. Watch sky do the countdown and the celebrities rally round to buy our club END OF.

Does the bloke not have any ambitions? ;-)
