I went on the ferry to IOW this year, and passing the old pier is a bit depressing. They should do it up, and bring back grab-a-granny like they had in the late 70`s.

Anyone else used to go to under 16s night at the Mecca on a Sunday night? The Mayflower pub nearby was always full of obviously underage drinkers beforehand

IOW and grab-a-granny? I can't believe FLT is passing this one up. An open goal beckons...
 
But does have a lovely harbour...Southampton need to pull their finger out and make the front more of a destination area.

Last time I was visiting home, showing a friend around the waterfront, I was horrified/ashamed at the mess the town planners have made of the Ocean Village/Waterfront area.... A golden opportunity to create a really nice Waterfront (the way most of the old big ports have done), and the town planners have just thrown it away :(

Reactions: It’s Only A Game
Thought I'd dig this thread out from the archives. From very early days in his Saints career we could see he was going to become a special, special player. Please read this thread Virgil and see how appreciated you are here.
 
Virgil's lack of concentration is a recurring theme in Chris Sutton's comments about him. He said much the same during Celtic's last qualifying match for the CL, when he also said that Southampton must have more money than sense for paying more than £10 million for a player who was unproven outside the Scottish Premiership. I think Virgil has answered those criticisms pretty well, particularly in our last two games. If he continues to step up in that way we'll have a gem on our hands.
Chris Sutton is a moron. Now he's gloating because VVD came from Celtic.
 
Please take Jose's off him!

I saw him earlier wearing it and I did try to remove it. I couldn't actually detach it from his shoulders though as there was this middle aged lady * shaped object that seems stuck to him. No idea what it was.
