Here is a scenario:

Drunk 1: rarrr, lairy, rarrr, nice tits

Drunk 2: rarrr, lairy, rarrr, your old man only plays for fakkin' Saints, should find a real man luv

Girlfriend of footballer: P*ss off you drunk morons, he's signing for Arsenal for £15m and is worth much more than you

 

Yes. I can see how rumours like that start.

 

So where did you bump into her to have this conversation? ;)

hahaha saw this on not606 posted by Jose Fonte Baby -

 

"For the record, I heard that we're after a big forward & winger, to be sponsored by a F1 team & have an Adidas kit."

 

Needless to say everyone thought Ferrari as we wear red, funny how they missed Maurussia is also a red F1 team.

 

Why would be sponsored by an F1 team? F1 cars themselves are completely covered in adverts. What are they selling?

 

Glad someone has also noted that he's just signed a new contract which probably had a signing on fee or bonus amount and would also allow him to have a bigger mortgage. I would suspect he's just buying a bigger house.

Not forgetting Honda, who'll be powering McLarens again like the good old days. (Not that I believe this 'F1' rumour...)

You haven't reall thought this one through, if he PULLED OUT of the house he clearly did like it. Just saying like.

 

Change of mind perhaps, it happens.

LOL like Ferrari & McClaren need to advertise, there are huge waiting lists for their cars, probably the same with Lotus. I'm sure all the people out there that can afford a Ferrari need to be reminded about it whilst they are watching Saints.

 

If we were sponsored by Red Bull then we would be sponsored by Red Bull, not the F1 team. Same for Mercedes and Honda.

 

We aren't going to be sponsored by an F1 team.

One slight development (and again, I am not claiming to be ITK about anything here)...

 

Just speaking to a mutual friend who knows the vendor a lot better than I do, and it turns out that Morgan agreed to buy the place after he was given his new contract recently.

Posted
Yes. A large and expensive property in Bassett.

 

I used to own a property in Bassett and had 5 buyers pull out before I finally sold it.

 

And as far as I know, none of them were because they were moving out of the region.

 

Most.....tenuous....link.....ever.

Getting the same info myself - your friend isnt from the Bassett area by chance?

It's alright and decent for the price, but for the money I think he's on I would have thought he'd be spending double that.

 

Maybe he doesn't want one. 4 bedrooms for him + missus....noone wants a house too big.

Posted
Has John Terry bought that one in Belbins Romsey yet?

 

Last time I checked they wanted circa 10 mill for that...... The spec is bloody impressive though, its even got an escape tunnel that comes out a very long way from the house!!

Posted
Would have thought Schneiderlin could afford something a bit over £600k?

 

Yeah, but he strikes me as a bit sensible, and not in to English waste money flash and trying to impress. Whatever happens in his football career you know he won't be one of those running out of money. I'd be interested to know the car he drives: I'd guess decent but not bling.

I live down the road and happened to drive by this morning - it is still empty apart from the security on the property

Me too! The builder upped the spec and the price massively a few years back. Been finished and empty for a long time.

Has anybody considered it may be an issue with the Willis-Fleming Estate which runs north from Burgess Rd, through Bassett and Chilworth and includes parts of Swaythling. They have clauses in the deeds of ALL the properties in that area.

The clauses say things like you cannot have a "Brewery" or "House of Worship" on the site etc. AND they also says the owner CANNOT "alter the appearance of the property" without their permission, i.e. cannot add a Porch or a Conservatory or Swimming Pool etc.

 

When we sold our house in that area the purchaser's solicitor questioned the change of Front Door and asked us for a letter from the Fleming Estates giving permission. This was a shock to us because we changed one door for another on maintenance grounds (general up keep of the property).

Our Solicitor passed this information back which the purchasers were happy with BUT she also said that the Fleming Estates is looked after by a semi-retired solicitor down in Somerset and it can take 3-4 MONTHS to get permission for anything plus they charge a high fee for very simple things.

 

Perhaps Morgan wanted to add something to the property and got put off by the Fleming Estates (these clauses in deeds must be strange to the non-English) or perhaps his solicitor questioned certain alterations to the property i.e. (a) ? photo 8 is that an extension ? (b) I don't know whether Photo 14 would fall into an "alteration" as it is not a covered area.

That rumour put you on the map.

 

Certainly didn't help people take my concerns about our lack of attacking options seriously the following season...

Didier Deschamps: "Ah Morgan I just wanted to call and congratulate you on your wonderful first saison in the Premier League."

Morgan: "Thanks coach, it is good to know that you've noticed."

Didier Deschamps:"Of course, after all you have played for Francais at every level so far..... except that is ........ as a full international.

Morgan: "Hmmm, yes that is my ambition. To go to Brazil next year."

Didier Deschamps: " I can't help thinking that this will be more likely if you are playing for a team in the Champions League. I was talking on the phone to Monsieur Wenger yesterday and your name came up in conversation.......Think about it Morgan."

Did you practice that infront of the mirror?

Morgan: "Merci coach, il est bon de savoir que vous avez remarqué."

Didier Deschamps: "Bien sûr, après tout vous avez joué à Francais à tous les niveaux jusqu'ici ..... sauf que c'est ........ comme internationale pleine et entière.

Morgan: "Hmmm, oui c'est mon ambition d'aller au Brésil l'année prochaine.».

Didier Deschamps:. "Je ne peux pas m'empêcher de penser que ce sera plus probable si vous jouez pour une équipe en Ligue des Champions, je parlais au téléphone à M. Wenger hier et votre nom est apparu dans la conversation ..... .. Pensez-y Morgan ".

I'd have thought that both Deschamps and Schneiderlin would know that the french word for 'France' is... 'France'.

Crap lawn

That is an understatement, I thought after years of neglect by my late Father in Law before he got someone in to chase out the Tigers and Japanese WWII soldiers that our lawn was in pretty shabby condition, but seeing that! Ours is like the Fairways of Wentworth by comparison.

House is nice but for that asking price I would have made sure there were no "Spiders Legs" out the back!!

you've obviously seen the piece by Desailly telling Gareth Bale to leave a tinpot club like Spurs and get a real team.

These France 1998 players have ego problems, if you're not playing in the Champions League or somewhere where one of their mates is coach you are less than nothing.
