Why should anyone care where the song comes from? It's not like it's an SS marching song from WW2. Besides, didn't Liverpool nick it off a foreign team originally? |

Reply | 5 Things About The Ipswich Game

1. I noticed that my side of the Northam (the left side) do tend to sing different songs to the right side. Perhaps to revive that away fans 'bounce off' you talk of, Saints should re-install the black mesh down the middle of the stand and both sides of the Northam should start hurling abuse at each other. Shouldn't be too difficult, the right-siders look a right ugly bunch of c***s.
3. We don't bother with the footbridge anymore, we go up Britannia Road and across the road bridge. Not only does this save time but you get a lovely view of the newly opened swimming pool where the gasometer used to be.
4. Didn't see a seagull but a butterfly flew across the Northam End during the match. I'm no expert, but I think it was a white one.
5. And we warm up at the Northam End now too. |

I can't believe that I actually agree with I_Would for once. Normally I think he's an unhinged, ill informed, vindictive idiot whose views are totally worthless, but I do concur about our free kicks and corners. If only we had someone who could drop the ball on a sixpence in the opposition area or bang one in from 25 yards. I think what I_Would is really getting at is that we need James Ward-Prowse back. |

There's no apostrophe in Stephens. If you're going to continually post about the same player at least get his fecking name right. |

I was there. I seem to recall they did an MLS style shoot out at the end and the Saints players were pretty rubbish at it. Even Mike Channon, who usually rounded the keeper with consummate ease in open play, completely flunked his. |

What do you know about anything? Your irrational hate campaign against JWP showed what a sad, ill informed and vindictive individual you are. Your views are worthless. [Post edited 5 Sep 15:05]

Reply | !!!!!!!!!! Russell Martin out !!!!!!!!!!!
at 12:24 2 Sep 2024
I would just like to point out that virtually all of you lot wrote off Saints and Russell Martin at roughly this point last season, and again before the play-offs. So just carry on whingeing and hopefully things will turn around soon. That's all. |

Not sure how Soton have got their town planning so disastrously wrong down the years. It's not as though there's no other towns and cities to take inspiration from. I went to Gunwharf recently and had a wander along the seafront. Although much of Pompey is a bit of a dump, the waterfront area is lovely and the real focal point of the city. It puts Soton to shame. Southampton does have a chance to do something special with the redevelopment of Town Quay and Mayflower Park (if it ever happens) but you just know that it'll inevitably end up as some half-arsed carbuncle with the usual 'shops, hotels, bars and michelin-starred restaurants' that the developers and investors love, but no-one else really needs or wants. |

Reply | Who Has Had To Move Their Seat From Last Season
at 19:12 21 Aug 2024
Our seats were in the family stand so we had to move. Shame really as we've had them for nearly 10 years. When I first got a season ticket for my lad I remember the groundsman let us sneak into the stadium to select the best seats. Since then, from those seats we saw both bad times and very bad times. And the occasional good time too. |

Looked to me like it was more of a coming together of heads than a proper headbutt. In fact, if the Newcastle lad had dived to the floor at exactly the same moment I wonder if both players would have been sent off. A bit like the classic boxing match episode of Porridge when Lenny Godber and his opponent had both been told to take a dive in round two so both of them hit the canvas simultaneously. |

When things got really terrible on the pitch Stuey was often the only player worth watching, the only one who wanted to get the ball and run with it, and the only one who had the potential to do something exciting. I for one shall miss him. |

Given what it was originally invented for, I would suggest that the only transfer target the word 'radar' should truly apply to would be Gerd Müller. |

On the all-red (with black and white shoulders) Patrick 1985 centenary shirt the individual letters of 'Draper Tools' were badly stuck on. Unfortunately after a while the D and the second R on mine fell off and so I had to go round with 'RAPE TOOLS' on my shirt. My mum eventually sewed the letters back on and I'm pleased to say they remain there to this day. |

Did you go to the Schindler Factory museum? That gives an excellent history of how Jews and non-Jews were treated.
And I agree that Auschwitz wasn't as harrowing as I thought it'd be, although the walk through the gas chamber (albeit a reconstructed one) is pretty chilling, and the cabinets of human hair, belongings, etc are incredibly sad. My abiding memory is standing at the spot where the victims were herded off the trains and 'selected' either for work or the gas chambers. Looking back from that spot towards the infamous entrance block with the railway track passing through it you actually feel you are at probably the most infamous place in the history of the human race. |

To Auschwitz yes. The bus wasn't full but it's probably best to book up first. Booking online should have been quite easy, but being an IT dinosaur I somehow managed to book the outward and return journeys the wrong way round, but they gave me an immediate refund and I re-booked straight away. The tours of the camps are quite long, and because it's so busy they do hurry you along, especially at the Auschwitz 1 site. At the end of the Auschwitz 2 tour you're allowed to wander around the site unaccompanied. As someone else said, it's an incredibly thought-provoking place. The memory of seeing the cabinets full of the victims' suitcases, shoes, spectacles and human hair will stay with me for a very long time. Walking through one of the gas chambers and adjoining furnace is certainly a very eerie experience. |
