    That's not really the point though is it. We still have to trawl through all these pages of nonsense. If there is no on-topic stuff for people to post about then people shouldn't post here!

    Rant over. Welcome epic saint (and hopefully Gaston soon enough...)

    Or, you can just go to the most recent few posts and see how on-topic it is to judge whether or not there's been any new news? :p

    That would work if there weren't often pages of the stuff since I last checked the thread. In several pages it's very likely there is at least one on-topic post of some value. So my choice is to miss it, or to scour the off-topic posts for something I want to read. Can you see the issue?

    And if there's news just before the most recent posts?

    Yeah but I don't see it as an issue that can't be resolved. If it's big news people won't be distracted so conversation won't wane. If it's minor news (like everything we've had for the last two days of numerous random Italian journalists saying nothing more than "It'll be completed soon") then it's insignificant to almost everybody because it's nothing new. Also there are other options for places to get your news, if it's that important to you, follow a few Twitter profiles.

    Then it'll be being discussed. It's not like someone will go "btw he's just failed a medical" and everyone will ignore it.

    Well let's see, I've just come on here for the first time today, read the 7 posts on this page, and determined that I don't need to read back any further. Wasn't so difficult.

    Anyone on here, like me, actually seen G Ram (well we have a J Rod) play?

    Turns out he was on the pitch when I saw Team GB beat Uruguay recently. cant say I noticed him, too busy shouting at Pearce to get Cork on, <laugh>!

    Thought I'd bore you with family snaps:

    Or rather I won't because my photo files exceed something or other for this 'forums file types',

    Anyway not to be deterred:

    What should have happened:
    1) Photo of Saints flag flying aloft in the Millenium stadium
    2) My lad wearing his 'Sash' kit to the game.
    3) Teams lining up for national anthems.
    4) Jack Cork warming up and actually staring up at aforementioned flag.

    Ta da.
    Yours in BH14, almost Sandbanks but not quite.......

    Yes I know there are other places to get news, but this is where I come to discuss it. If there is a conversation about postcodes going on and someone posts something on-topic, what are the chances of other people who are interested in on-topic discussion seeing it and responding to it? Quite slim if they've just scanned the page and decided it's all off-topic.

    Thanks for that constructive input. I don't know where I'd be without your insight.

    Remember that thunderous long shot that hit the bar late on? That was him.

    If you want to upload pictures just upload them to imageshack.us or tinypic.com and then you'll be able to post them on here. He hit the woodwork against team GB though :p

    Well with a six year old to herd through the crowds and my wifes dire warnings of 'responsibility' and 'take care of our boy' ringing in my ears, we were probably in the queue at the train station by then! <smile>

    I'll give the tinypic thingy a whirl.

    I understand Gastón Ramírez's move to #SaintsFC is still on course. He could be one of three new faces at St Mary's before the week's out.
