  1. Latest Rumours Salaries unpaid

    I have read a couple of postings on here suggesting some staff have not been paid by SUFC. I have no idea of the validity of the claims but, like many of you, find the possibility alarming/saddening. Is anyone on the ear of Tara Brady to request confirmation or a statement of the clubs present...

    Gillingham Away - Tuesday 28th September

    Hi All, One of the local away games. I noticed the details for this game on the web today and am keen to go. I was surprised at only offering an initial 500 tickets for away fans. Do they still use the temporary stand, and if so how many does that house, because surely there wouldn't be...

  13. Man City Ask To Break Simple Rules

    Just what is it with Premier League clubs having a very limited understanding of just how transfer windows work? If it isn't Portsmouth asking for permission to sell players just because they're skint, it's Man City begging to sign a 'keeper. Due to some remarkable oversight, when Shay Given...
