    The problem with Southampton's owner is that she is a 'reluctant' owner. There was someone else who was a 'reluctant' owner as well.

    The key difference being that she isn't a two bit shyster like Chanrai.

    Barnsley have signed former Stoke City and Pompey midfielder Liam Lawrence on a deal until the end of the season.

    The 32-year-old former Republic of Ireland international was a free agent after leaving Greek side PAOK Salonika.

    Yeeeeah but what makes this situation even more amusing is that just a couple months ago you were talking, in complete seriousness, about finishing the season in the top 4. :)

    Can't speak for the rest of them, but I certainly wasn't being serious.

    This made me chuckle !

    From the BBC Sports site..........A drunk Manchester United fan called 999 "demanding" to speak to Sir Alex Ferguson after the club's defeat.

    Greater Manchester Police (GMP) were called at 22:30 GMT on Wednesday by a man from Crumpsall after the team lost to Sunderland in the Capital One Cup.

    GMP said it "can be sad and depressing" when a football team loses a game but asked the public to "remember that 999 is to be used for emergencies only".

    The force suggested contacting the club to speak to the former manager.

    Manchester United lost 2-1 on penalties in the semi-final of the competition at Old Trafford under new manager David Moyes.

    The man opened the call by asking to speak to Mr Ferguson before telling the call handler: "The result is all wrong, they had extra time and it was a total and utter load of rubbish."

    After being asked if he needed to report a crime, the caller replied: "Yes, a crime. I want to report a crime. The crime is that Manchester United were absolutely knackered."

    Towards the end of the call the man asked if the force could call him back.

    The force said the caller has been warned about inappropriate use of the 999 service, but would not face further action.


    Blimey, I enjoy a drink as much as anyone else, but surely the caller must have realised that he should have telephoned The Samaritans rather than the Police, as they could have advised him which bridge to successfully jump off.......... <laugh>

    Brag away Stewie <laugh>

    Well done Norway, although GB have done really well to have achieved their medal haul, bearing in mind we don't necessarily get much snow over here compared with a lot of countries :emoticon-0100-smile

    Just watched University Challenge on BBC2.

    Southampton Uni got destroyed by Somerville Oxford.

    I got more questions right than they did which isn't saying much. Mind you none of them were actually from Southampton....

    They should have signed me up.
    To be fair I didn't do much better today.

    It was funny watching them struggle with the music bonus round.

    If in doubt say Miles Davis. To be fair the tracks played didn't feature the writer so much, eg; Herbie Hancock known for keyboards, but Canteloupe Island features trumpet as the lead mostly.

    They should have got Soul Bossa Nova by Quincy Jones, from Austin Powers a student film if ever there was.

    That's what you get when you pick four scientists.

    To be honest I don't think I've ever met anyone at this uni who is actually from Southampton, apart from myself. I guess going to your local university isn't really that common any more.

    I reckon Team GB would 'walk it' (or swim it) in any Acquatic World Finals, anti, after all the rain we have had so far this Winter.

    Guaranteed massive medal haul.

    Just think, if their PGCE course hadn't been filled up already, we could have been uni mates! :O

    It's my last year unfortunately. Or fortunately, depends on how you look at it.
