Check out the photo on the Charlie thread...

Get you all cool dude so early on Xmas morning. I did "check out" the photo. Nice. I don't think I'm going to be alone in hoping that Charlie's injury really opens the door for Jay. The article posted on here is a very sad read. I've liked Jay from day one. I'd love to see him get a run in the team and show his worth. To shut up the doubters, sure. More importantly for his self esteem, and ultimately for Southampton FC, a Rodriguez hat trick cannot come quickly enough. If he can shout "told you so" from the steps of Wembley as we pick up a cup I would be delighted. (Course he won't - he's too self-effacing being a nice northern lad)
 
Last year sometime I pledged £30 through Pledgemusic to help a guy record an album. Enough others must have done the same as the album was released today. Worth thinking about Laces?

“It’s like a flower that is about to blossom. I saw so much potential in the club that I said ‘Ok, this is the right place for me.’ I also said to people, ‘I don't go to Southampton to make the next step to a bigger club.’ This is not the reason I'm here. I go to Southampton to make Southampton go to the next level.

“I know that I will not do it alone and I will not do it just me, but I can be a part of it and I believe that I can be in the team where we change things to something better.”

We got out the compendium of games that we have had for more years than I can remember and played a game of snakes and ladders. I got nearly to the top when I slid all the way down the snake. I said to the very lovely Mrs Godders:emoticon-0115-inlov this must be what it is like for Puel as The Saints' manager. We have been deciding whether to buy him his own set to play.
