  1. Well, that was good of them to wait until I got back from footie training to provide me with 5 goals and a Saints win. Time for a shower and to quarantine the sweaty sports bra.:-)
  2. Just in from footie training - no shower - but have P2P feed - how are we playing?
  3. Interesting, I checked earlier in the week and it wasn't there, but it's a fairly reliable site. I'll have to leave footie training in a hurry to catch the second half. My record on watching Saints both live and via the net has not been good in the last few years....
  4. St Stephen is also the day for going Wren hunting, although I shall make do with coming over for the Exeter match, although it means I'm going to have to hire a car.... unless anybody is going to the match from Maidenhead, Berks??
  5. It's not listed on MyP2P.eu which I find pretty reliable.
  6. I'm all for the rehabilitation of offenders but not by my club, I would hope. Not only did he sexually assault the woman but, when asked to stop hit her _hard_ on the nose. Reports say she is small and slightly built.. it really beggars belief. I've never hit anyone in my life or been booked at hockey/footie, but I'd be tempted to do a two-footed tackle with my 75 kilos on his cruciates.
  7. I remember that that too, and when he came to us he'd never played at such a high level, but didn't look out of place. Wasn't he also a member of the 92 club... as a player!
  8. Well, I feared the worst before the game - usual Saints failings coming into play. Just got back from a winery trip: I thought I'd been taking it easy, but then had some cask samples of the new vintage (red and white!) that tasted like fruit juice. The winemaker only told me afterwards that they were 14% already. But hey, I'm home safely and out to celebrate our recovery!
  9. Tell me about it! I've visited the UK every Christmas since I moved away. Hopefully this year I'll see a win!
  10. Back to Atticus Finch... cheers Mush, you saved me a lot of effort I don't think I could really have been arfsed to answer, beyond saying "no, it wouldn't have happened in the US, they'd all have shot each other a long time before!". I've been in inner City US, many years ago, and more **** scared than I've ever been in the UK. Frankly I'd be more scared in US suburbs (been there too) as well, especially with nutters like Saint George around!
  11. I tried, honest...
  12. Ta Redwillie! I could google or wiki but Saintweb is more efficient!
  13. ¬Who the 'eck is Tiff Needell anyway? Besides, if we carry on like this you might see me cancelling a few lessons, making myself unavailable for Sunday football and making the play-offs!! Alps rule!:-)
  14. I bet he's chuffed to bits! I live in Italy where the idea of 20K+ for a 3rd division game is inconceivable (and for some 1st division games too - think Pompey...). Now I know he's not a football person, but if he was there today I reckon he must have been impressed. I can only go on second-hand reports, but sounds like it was a good atmosphere, and, more importantly, what are the odds on a better crowd for the next home game (let alone for 3000+ for Orient)? Perhaps ML should go to an away game as well! I notice on another thread that Al-shukrun or Al-khol or whatever his name was is interested in "any proposed redevelopment of the stadium for the city's [ie: pompey's] 2018 World Cup bid." What are the odds we might have a better chance?
  15. Massimo ...sei cattivo! :-)
  16. "Ho hum, I was thinking before the game that having a big expectant crowd always seems to backfire on Saints. Not necessarily how well they play but the infernal bloomin result.." I take it all back! Finally!! What do we reckon the crowd will be next home game? The Italians can't believe we get 20K+ for 3rd division football.
  17. panic all over the world
  18. Cheers Mush, have PM'ed you. Grazie
  19. Going by what you lot are saying.... wheeeee
  20. Ho hum, I was thinking before the game that having a big expectant crowd always seems to backfire on Saints. Not necessarily how well they play but the infernal bloomin result..
  21. Even the locals think OTH is a ****er.. Just because we are becoming a bit more enthusiastic we are now "arrogant"! A few sensible voices though, and how the club will appreciate our gate money!
  22. I think we should also remember that AP seems him every day in training so has a lot more to go on than we have.
  23. Hmmm, Flybe Geneva - Southampton... Can't really afford it, but let's see towards the end of the season, eh?
  24. Well, if you narrow it down to the last 3 and a bit years that I've been in Italy the finer moments I suspect have been completely absent! From my searches of the internet P2P stuff there really hasn't been much coverage and I don't think the takeover was televised! I can understand families wanting TV but as a grown adult I really don't miss it, there's far too much else to do. If I want to sit in front of a screen there's always this forum... and it IS annoying that even short little video clips can't be shown here. You'd think it would be good publicity and marketing to at least allow If we get to the play-offs I'll hustle a few more private English lessons and fly over to watch us live!
  25. It's sad to say but ART told us before he arrived about his only putting in the playing effort to get contracts and he has been been proved right.
