  1. I spotted "Southamton" too, somewhere (I think it was in the headline bit of one of your posts). I'm not trying to make your life more difficult, honest. You are clearly knowledgeable and passionate and the fact that you are writing a blog about Saints on a national website is to be applauded. The problem is that errors in spelling and grammar detract from the authority of your opinions. And if these are being passed to an editor for checking, then you will excuse me for saying that the editor is not very good at his/her job (I was going to say that the editor was ****, but that would be rude. My Mum raised me better than that.) My advice would be to dump the spellchecker and do it yourself. Read it back and say it out loud to yourself as you do so. This may make you look like a mentalist to anyone watching but it works, trust me. Spellcheckers are untrustworthy bastards and must be destroyed by any means necessary! Sorry to bang on, I've had rather a lot of coffee so far today.
  2. mate, the spelling needs sorting. makes you look stupid. sorry.

  5. “You have to be a bastard to make it, and that's a fact. And the Beatles are the biggest bastards on earth.” John Lennon. Can't really see why anyone would be surprised that Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starr all had their "arsehole" moments. The Beatles were a band who, like all great bands, were greater than the sum of their parts. After the split, none of them ever reached the artistic heights they had previously, although they all produced great work (albeit sporadically). They all produced some appalling cack as well ("Sometime In New York City", "Give My Regards to Broad Street", "33 1/3", "Old Wave"). "Heard a quote when George died that the Beatles were dying in the wrong order...as far as talent goes I agree - Ringo has a long life to look forward to" You take that back, young man. Ringo is/was a brilliant drummer.
  6. just lately it's been: michael smith - mi cyaan believe it dimitri from paris' edit of "i wanna be your lover" by prince the jam - sound affects dr john - the night tripper mazzy star - among my swan
  7. "If you can't beat Yeovil away then you have no right to win automatic promotion." Really? I mean, really? What if a team got itself enough points to gain automatic promotion, but hadn't beaten Yeovil away? Should the Football League ban them from being promoted? Some people on here are talking out the side of their ****ing neck. No wonder other supporters think we're ****s. I'm off.
  8. this is ace. i haven't laughed so much in years.

  10. "Ok, we're not playing as well as we'd like at the moment but nobody could be so simple-minded as to assuming the tthe rest of the season will follow the first two weeks?" this.
  11. wow. a post from someone who remembers the days of paine, sydenham, chivers et al, and yet seems to be caught up in the unrealistic expectation of instant success that blights much of modern society, both within and without football. at the plymouth game, i was sat in front of a lad who spent almost the entire game moaning about the team and effing and jeffing about how useless they were. towards the end of the game he was kicking the back of my chair and booing, yes booing the team. this was, of course, the first game of the season. expectations are abnormally high this season, and it increasingly seems to be the case that some supporters think we should be winning every game, and they subsequently chuck their toys at the wall when this doesn't happen. if you are running out of patience, what exactly are you going to do? take over as manager? probably not. stick by the team and support them throughout a season during which they will inevitably win, lose and draw some games? this might be your best option. we're lucky to have a ****ing club right now. meditate on that and stop being so unreasonable.
  12. Toy Story 3 (the incinerator scene and the last scene) Toy Story 2 (Jesse's song) It's A Wonderful Life (the end) The Jungle Book (the bit where Mowgli thinks Baloo is dead - every. ****ing. time.) Withnail and I (the Hamlet soliloquy) this is all a bit worrying. mayhap I am closer to a nervous breakdown than I had previously thought.
  13. Paddy McAloon- I Trawl the Megahertz **** me this is good ****
