I remember that NME issue well. Being a JD fanatic, I was endeared to him at the time, although I recall the snobbery of the writing, effectively saying, he wasn't your average thick footballer. I think he may even have gone to Uni or had A Levels. They made a point about that as well. |

I agree. Most improved player for me so far this season. It seems barely recognisable as the same player. His decision making has improved, he draws so many free kicks and is a real grafter as well helping out in defence. |

Marlow is a nice spot. I have crossed that bridge many times and stayed at that hotel a few as well (when a deal is on obviously!) |

I've never lived in Croydon, but I assumed not many would have heard of Purley, which is a few miles south of it. |

Didn't they get theirs just after us though? I seem to recall we were the only one at the time but they followed after. |

I think the same and really hope that is the case. I had a conversation walking away from our defeat there earlier this season with a particularly smug Derby fan. He kept saying how poor we were and at that time they were about 8 points above us. I told him to see where we both were in a few months time and I am delighted to see them two points below us already. |

Just remind me how playing open expansive attractive football has got Southampton this season? Marti seems to have gone back to basics and become pragmatic to grind out some results given where we were in the league. This would seem to be working. Let's get in a more comfortable position and then open up a bit. Having said all that I felt Bristol were excellent and didn't give us much opportunity. Compare that to the Watford game where I thought we played our best stuff of the season. |

Yes, I am not a big fan of PS as I believe he genuinely is not up to this level. However, he really does put a shift in and his pace can cause real problems. He has had a couple of decent games lately. |

To be fair, Saturday was our first home league win since Leeds anyway so your 8 games was nearly the full 9. |

I had my first ever pint of the stuff last year at (of all places) the Guinness Factory in Dublin. Slightly embarrassing given I am sixty (hard to believe I know ) I really enjoyed it and have been consuming a few ever since. |

I went from a no to a yes recently when visiting Scotland and having not just black but white pudding as well on the same breakfast plate. |

For me the UB's went from brilliant to pretty $hit from Red Red Wine onwards. Probably a sweeping generalisation but how they went from The Earth Dies Screaming and One in Ten etc to that so quickly still pains me. |
