    Hello mate. Tomorrow is be nice to you day so can you please fuckoffuntil then. Cheers.
    Now, now Seed, it is a stressful time, let's be real Saintly for once.
    I'm sorry it's just so hard. As a kid I always dreamed of playing against county at home in front of 7000 - well in the first half - and what do we get? Bloody Manchester United away in front of 50,000. Pissesme right off I can tell you.

    And i wanted scales and fins....
    Well all I can say is you cannot have evrything, just be happy with your Saintly lot, wash the blues away and cheer up."

Forren: I didn't speak to Adkins over Saints move

VEGARD FORREN VEGARD FORREN

VEGARD Forren admits he never spoke to Nigel Adkins about joining Saints.

The Norwegian international centre half was officially unveiled as a Saints player just hours after Adkins was sacked on Friday, January 18.

But negotiations to sign the player had been ongoing for days, with Forren in the crowd at Stamford Bridge when Saints drew with Chelsea two days earlier.

"I never spoke to Nigel," said Forren.

"I knew that there was a change and that the new manager wanted me here.

“For me it was never a problem, I was happy to be here and have an opportunity to play for Southampton."

The Premier League is very popular in Norway but Forren is not worried about upsetting people back home if Saints pull off an upset at Old Trafford tomorrow.

"All of my friends and family in Norway are happy for me to be in the Premier League, everyone loves the Premier League in Norway," he said.

"Of course I have some friends who are United fans but if I do well and we get the three points they will be okay."

With Jose Fonte still missing through injury and Forren settled into the Saints squad following a training trip to Barcelona the 24-year-old looks set to make his debut against United.
