I'll let you know if I see anymore. Most of my posting is from a phone using desk top version.

Just to complicate things further, one or two standard phone browsers [therefore using the desktop, not the app] have trouble with apostrophes and therefore certain words. For example, it's, that's. Write those words in certain browsers on certain phones, on this forum, and all hell can break loose. ;)

They can write them, but any letter placed after the apostrophe gets placed near the beginning of the post, if that post is a quoted reply. It overwrites any words until it is discovered by the author to have gone wrong. This can result in some curious posts, and it is the sort of problem Chilco had the other week when he patched up his post afterwards.
 
There is more to it than money. he was not happy about something to ditch Southampton and join Everton ....money means nothing to multi millionaires.....the job satisfaction and the ability to make the saints do what Leicester did with style was Koeman's ambition. He had that taken away from him......Money will not be the reason there is a lot more to it than that.....You could understand if a really big club come in for him but not Everton ffs
 
The quotes in the posts you and ashby are exchanging are messed up. Try editing your most recent post where you quote him. Just add [ quote ] (without the spaces between the square brackets and the word) right at the start. That should fix it.

Unless you've already tried that?

Bizarrely, when I go to edit it, the
is there bailout not when published.

Maybe I best just not reply to him on that anymore :)
 
Koeman just getting slated about the German shirt bum wipe thing on Thierry's henry's EURO 16 programme thingy on BBC 1 ATM. Ruud Gullit and a couple of others saying that "in their own words of course) it wasn't an appropriate thing to do.

p.s. FLT & TSS. This thing between Ashby and FLT is continuing on every post. It is almost like FLT's replies are being read before he writes them and Ashby has already quoted them. several posts on this page alone. It's freaky mindreading stuff.

Well, certain Dutch people really don't like the Germans. WWII aftermath, and all that.

As to FLT and Ashby's posts, I'll have a look and see if I can tidy them up without destroying the conversations. Cheers

Thanks for that. very helpful. Are you his son?
 
Woah... This one completely ballsed up.

Yeah, did the same with my last post before I edited it. I think there should be two of them at the start of those quoted posts, not one.

[ quote ] starts a quote and [ /quote ] ends one (again, without the spaces). It looks to me like your posts quoting Ashby will have one without the slash and two with. There should be the same number.

In football at the highest level it is always money - end of.

Don't know why some are talking about the player exodus as a reason for him jumping ship. He said he was fully aware of what was going to happen when he arrived and the largest number left. In season two, we lost 2 players that we might have preferred to keep. He had the chance to do something good here and then move on to a big club, but he followed the money to a mid-table club not in Europe. I will be amazed if he finishes his contract at Everton, although whether he will jump or be pushed may be the question.

I've changed that last reply if mine to Ashby. I think the problem was with his. When I replied it had part of my previous to that post at the top and no quotes around his. I deleted that quote from me and it seems to work.

With all due respect how would a Swansea fan know anything at all about the plans of Southampton's board?
