    The Worlds Best Jobs

    Don't forget MEP's....an even cushier number.

    The Amex or The Goldstone

    The balance between nostalgia and common sense. To those of us who spent years at the Goldstone, there is always the temptation to look back with rose-tinted specs. The reality is that we have moved forward and are able to offer facilities that compete with the top 10-12 clubs in the country...

    Catering MADNESS

    I saw the ' lamb stew + roll ' on special at £5 but I didn't see any takers. There is absolutely no point complaining about catering prices. If they were lower and demand increased, that extra demand would not be served. They can barely cope now!

    General sale for arsenal

    Well I'm a dullard and saddo then, as I consider the Ipswich game far more important. Championship survival is massively more vital than a one-off game in the FAC. Don't get fooled by this interest in the Arsenal fixture. If you know anything about football you should know that loads of people...

    Shock! Horror! An honest footballer says it's all about the money!

    Quite. It always puzzles me why fans expect players to be just like them. Fans fill a lot of waking hours thinking about nothing but their club. Players need to switch off and get away from their job, like the rest of us. Do you think that chefs go home and dive straight into the kitchen and...

    Shock! Horror! An honest footballer says it's all about the money!

    One season at Reading...handful of games...upwards of £30k per week...nice finish.

    5 Years Ago Today...

    Who was the other full back that debuted for us that day?...Brains gone....can't think of his name.

    Andy Johnson?

    Always gets injured. Similar in style to CMS...shoulder of the last man, running into space etc. Decent striker in his time but injuries have taken their toll and not the answer.

    When was the last exciting transfer window?

    With the Vicente signing it was pure shock that a player of that quality should come to us. With CMS, there were signings like Hoskins and Harley, who had excelled against us in Div1 and there was every reason to expect them to do well in the Championship. The feelgood factor about moving into...

    Jonas Gutierrez

    Well said that man. I always belonged to that group of men that had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the doctor. Too stoical for my own good. ..." its nothing...it'll pass...I'm too busy...waiting rooms are full of time wasters etc " Not any more. Months of chemotherapy have cured that...

    Over 23000 Sold for the Arsenal Game

    They repeated the pricing that Saints adopted for the first tie, namely £10 for adults and £5 for juniors. Result...nearly 60,000 watched both games. Methinks a lesson to be learnt by other clubs when looking out over empty seats for cup games.

    Over 23000 Sold for the Arsenal Game

    Look..we all know in our heart of hearts that we are likely to be shat upon from a great height but inside us all there is that tiny scintilla of hope that there might be a surprise...and if there is, I, for one, want to be inside the stadium.

    [Albion] CMS - what would you do?

    Agree with this as well. I trust the judgement of Hughton far more than Poyet, Garcia or Hyypia, so lets see what happens.

    [Albion] CMS - what would you do?

    Agreed. Spoke to an experienced and highly regarded scout ( very good ex-player ) recently and he was talking about CMS. He talked about what a clever player he was, the running off the ball and how its common knowledge that defenders do not like playing against him. He also said it was...

    [Albion] CMS - what would you do?

    Pathetic and immature comment.

    [Albion] CMS - what would you do?

    Just the same as Zamora ( who had two outstanding seasons in Div's 1 + 2 but found the goals drying up, the higher he played )

    Ipswich squad hit by illness

    The virus is called smugitis. It catches you unawares, when you least expect it. It usually follows a period of good health and success. The only cure is rest and realism.

    The Windsors you can't keep a good family down

    You wouldn't have to support him. His calculating and scheming other half has already ensured that team Blair are set up for life. ( Why do you think we had an open door immigration policy under his tenure? )
