    The new Trophy Cabinet (the reason why the final cost of the Academy has risen again to 40 million). :)

    Is the new building counted in the overall cost or will that add on to it?

    I've just got round to watching it all, and I must say I found it all quite moving. Ralph spoke with real passion and affection about Marcus, it was rather nice. I think he encapsulated the mood of the club, and the pride that we are feeling at the moment with some of his words.

    I feel pretty proud to be a Saints fan at the moment that's for sure. Just need to get to some bloody games.

    PS I got the sarcasm Beefy

    The 40 is the total cost: Pavilion + planned extension + trophy cabinet :)

    In your opinion, Chilco, and I respect that. Other will agree with you I'm sure, but those were my thoughts.

    Everyone's entitled to their own thoughts. I don't like management speak usually, but today I had no problem hearing a eulogy for a lovely man when his daughter was standing there.

    Bit late, having only just got back from work. But that video on the new training facilities are brilliant. As someone who hopes to work in the sport science industry, I'd love the chance to work there in the future.

    Keep your eye out...they do advertise jobs. Sometimes it can be good to get your foot in even in a slightly different role...could then move sideways if the right job appears.

    I thought it was a done thing. You mean you didn't get to go, after the promises made..? That's poor.

    I honestly thought you were going. If I had known that it wasn't sorted I would have contacted DTLW to make sure that you were given the option of going. People shouldn't make empty promises.

    I'm sorry you didn't get to fend Jose's paws off Fran. Another time. :)

    P.S. It's bloody awesome inside there. I even got to look inside 'the black box'.

    I've bottled the scent of Fonte, don't worry - I got this.
