if we sign Solanke The Police song 'So Lonely' could be adapted to fit his name.

Well someone told me yesterday
That when you throw your love away
You act as if you just don't care
You look as if you're going somewhere
But I just can't convince myself
I couldn't live with no one else
And I can only play that part
And sit and nurse my broken heart
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

I'm not doing it though

I quite like

Dom, Dom, De Dom, Dom, Dom, Solanke to the tune of Disturbia

My guess is that the entire song will be ‘So lanke’ repeated.
Sting is about the most tedious performer I’ve ever had the misfortune to witness.
 
Meanwhile in the Tottenham Transfer Committee meeting...

Really?

My daughter finished Uni around 3 years ago, we used to visit her often and I always liked the place.

What's happening to take it downhill?

Crime, anti social behaviour mainly, more stabbings, more fights, people coming down from outside the area and causing issues

Nightlife is also dead as well...I have a friend down here who was about to open a bar here last year but after doing research found out that no one was really dining out anymore so he opened it in Southampton, heard loads of stories like that.

Basically been here for 7 years and I've noticed a trend of things just generally getting worse down here since then.

Summer is good though cause you get all the tourists coming down, feels like you're on holiday in the Summer months.

Bournemouth isn't a big place anyway, there's legit better places to live surrounding it where it's more peaceful.

Council are numptys and keep making all the wrong decisions regarding general town planning to revitalise the high street. Rental rates way too high for new independent shop owners considering how dead the high street is, car park costs too high, etc. Major problems with homelessness, significant issues with crime and just not enough going on events wise on a monthly basis that are exciting enough and worthwhile to keep people coming in on the regular to keep the local economy ticking away nicely.

Southampton is a serious shit hole IMO, but at least the night life and shopping is decent enough for students

Is there anywhere nice left to live?
