Happy anniversary to the Paul Allen 'rumour'....

 

http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/markets/article-1609480/Microsoft-man-to-bid-for-Southampton-FC.html

 

Paul Allen, one of the world's richest men and co-founder with Bill Gates of global software giant Microsoft, is set to make a stunning entry on to the English football stage.

 

The Evening Standard can reveal that Allen has expressed an interest in making a takeover bid for Southampton, the listed football club vying for promotion to the financial riches of the Premiership.

 

5 years ago? By 'eck....don't time fly when you're having fun...!

That was a summer of absolute madness - I don't thing TSF ( or its predecessor as was) was so busy in any summer before or since..

 

The greatest regret was that the threads ( which exceeded the Pompey thread in size and hits) was lost to the ether ! They were the most golden of golden threads.
