Well, I'd wait a few days. You can't have the FL waiting at the door and as they come in say "here's your initial 10 point penalty, we'll see about others later". They'll at least pretend to give the matter consideration even if they are already laughing wickedly at the prospect.

Well, let's hope that unlike Pompey they don't spend all the money on wages: an improved ground and possibly training centre would be something for the future as I really can't see them staying up.

It could be something as simple as an advertiser using a copyright photo and being in dispute with the rights holder. Saints wouldn't want to aid and abet an offence which could certainly cost more in time, legal costs and licencing fees than would be made by selling the programme. Hence also the silence on the matter, although if it was of that nature a simple explanation "for commercial reasons" would stop a lot of the speculation.

Thanks for that post, it rings very true with other stuff we know. We knew android was a liar but obviously he's not good at that either! Anyway, looking at the time you posted that I hope you're getting a bit of sleep mush!

I heard that he exploded after working himself up about students, or cyclists, or it might have been student cyclists from abroad, or possibly foreign students driving cars in the outside lane with cycles on their racks, or summat like that.

Mwahhahhaa: there arenàt any. At least, not in the UK. "Idiots in Shopping Malls who are so unaware of their surroundings. (We have a new game when pushing a trolley - just stay in a straight line and walk slowly and see how many people walk into you while on their phone)" I have a refinement I use here in Italy. If somebody is coming towards you and showing no sign of letting you have any room at all I just stop dead. Then if they walk into you itàs all their fault. Iàm more robust than most of them as well.:à) _ Sod, keyboard mapping on foreign bought laptops...

Hurrah! On second thoughts he's quite amusing for the odd disbelieving laugh in a "is he really that bigotted?" way: and interesting from a historical perspective because he reminds us of 19th century attitudes and how most of us have moved on a bit.

Come on Phil, you are normally pretty sensible. My own personal view is that governments say, (and remember ATC is a Europe wide issue).. OK, you fly, but if anything happens you are on your own - you pay all the costs and compensation if anything happens, and if anything happens your CEO will be prosecuted. To be honest the airlines aren't prepared to do that and are quite happy to have the authorities to blame.

Overseas World Cup Coverage
suewhistle replied to dubai_phil's topic in Overseas Saints / Supporters Groups
Well, not having a TV at all I wander down the local bars, so the vital issue is beer prices: €3.50 for a birra media. In fact yesterday I had a letter from the licencing authorities: my reply advised them not to come round to check during England and Italy games as I'd be down the bar.;-) -
I'd agree that Gecko's design is a little too fussy: I'm not sure about the crown or the wreath, neither of which have strong associations with Saints. I'd like to keep the scarf as it represents us, the supporters, who are the most important element to the club. The red nose of the new one is definetely a NO, however. It really is nothing more than a plain background to show off the 125. Ain't it great we're having a reasoned discussion about the club crest? One look at the Pimply Takeover thread is enough to make anyone shudder at the memory of last year.

2010 Toulon Tournament - Live on Eurosport (18th May - 27th May)
suewhistle replied to Matthew Le God's topic in The Saints
One of the 'tators commented that he was a bit quiet towards the end, but I reckon that's because he tends to let the ball do the work and his team-mates weren't finding the space so well. He certainly wasn't lacking in getting behind the ball and i think he was just using his experience to calm things down: he didn't look tired as some of the others did. -
As has been pointed out, it was cancelled. But phoning Portsmouth supporting friends from my village this evening just to keep in touch (no, I didn't gloat..) I was told it was because there was a big fight between Pimply fans at the big screen on the common during the final!
-
Anyway, I have a St. Georges Cross which came in useful as a theme for my english lessons on 23rd April. It's staying back in the drawer unless we make the semis or final, in which case it'll get an outing down the bar. If we win (hah!) I'll fly it from my fourth floor window!

Oh gawd, now look what I've started.;-)

Yep, it's getting a bit urgent now... -

suewhistle replied to Matthew Le God's topic in The Saints
He played well. Good goal, some excellent passing and positional play, and some real snap in his tackles (and the usual pointless booking). The commentators commented on his, just about, one misplaced pass towards the end, "the first one" they noticed. -
Reading friendly at St Mary's - 31st July 2010

Nah, you've got me so wrong. The only iron I use is the one for waxing my skis and I don't even own a telly. Mind you, i did just remember to get my footie boots out as they need a good end of season clean. -
Depends where they go in Switzerland but as I'm right on the border it might be possible to make a day trip of it. Food and drink isn't bad value apart from in the top places. If you find out any more details of where and when can you let me know by PM: I don't need to know who told you! Ta.

No, I think that was the last day I went skiing this year, but if I'd been there and knew it was you that I was annoying it would quite have made my day. Now lets make two true sentences using the noun c**t and the two verbs to have and to be and apply them to you and me. That will give you my opinion of you. Thank you. -

4 decades, hah, and some! He might have sorted out the incontinence but not the frothing at the mouth and the rocking back and forwards. Look, people who struggle to find £400 (and I know quite a number) don't generally want to pay before they have to. Connected with the real world, my arse. -
Bear in mind also that Club A already has it's own training ground...
-
You'd think they'd pay up Pullis and Molyneux, can't be too much I'd have thought. As it is they're just getting in the way. Do they actually still train, if so they must be taking up valuable coaching time, hot water in the showers and wearing out the training pitches.

Yeah. If they can't manage a bank account perhaps they should get a piggy bank, or ask their carer or guardian to manage their money.. -
