suewhistle Posted 22 November, 2013 Share Posted 22 November, 2013 Just seen this in The Guardian and came here to see if it had already been posted. Not much misses us, does it. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsy Posted 22 November, 2013 Share Posted 22 November, 2013 I reckon there's been more articles bout Southampton in the last two weeks than the previous 5 years combined. I like reading bout Southampton as much as the next fan, but even my insatiable appetite for Saints news is proving to be... satiable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suewhistle Posted 22 November, 2013 Share Posted 22 November, 2013 That's interesting Bearsy. My 1964 edition of the Concise Oxford includes 'satiable; (rare)', but my more recent Compact Oxford doesn't include it at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsy Posted 22 November, 2013 Share Posted 22 November, 2013 ha I was wondering if it was a genuine word, independent of the "in". As you've clearly got nowt better to do, maybe check out "gruntled" also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you've clearly got nowt better to do, maybe check out "gruntled" also! I'm pretty sure we have PG Wodehouse to thank for 'gruntled'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish Posted 22 November, 2013 Share Posted 22 November, 2013 Top bloke, he used to live near me in Wakefield Road. I remember seeing him in mikes chippy at the castle in Midanbury after a game one day and he signed me an autograph on chip paper, I was about 8 I think. Loved him as a player and shows how much football had changed that a top flight footballer in the 80s lived in a 3 bed semi in Midanbury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
