Another "Cantona-esque" quote from NI! FullThorpe Expected in posted by Nick01 on: 10:14 - 18/10/2008 In less than two weeks, On October the 31st Halloween night to be precise, Im told that is the date that will see the arrival of people at thorpe park in Surrey for the annual Halloween scare night, a sell out is predicted NB This is the second in a line of posts intended to drive up message board traffic on a quiet day,

Then, although this is a free country with freedom of speech (Political Correctness permitting), I am afraid that your insightful comments on this afternoons "performance" are of no value at all. Those of us that were actually there KNOW what it was like. I think that the flippant remarks on an event that you could not be bothered to attend are worthless.

Were you there?

Have been watching Saints for over 50 years and been a ST holder since the mid 70`s and for the first time ever today I nearly left before half-time. I suddenly realised that I have almost got to the stage where I don`t really care any more. Saints have been a major part of my life. I have had the stuffing knocked out of me over the last 5 years and there`s virtually nothing left. How sad that it`s come to this. :(

Just like Homer Simpson trying to (not too!) retrieve his beer from the electric cable.

Girls Aloud and The Sugababes.

Also a BBQ reference! "Its not quite so simple as that, various things need to be in place, you dont go out and buy a load of sausages and chicken wings until you have bought your barbeque ":confused:

Has there been any response from Nick Illingsworth to the rumour that he started apart from his "Rallying Cry"?

So....... even Nick Illingsworth gets things wrong/gets taken in!:smt010

Especially then.

Oh Pleeeeeze! Not another "Woolston Ferry" thread!

Victoria Beckham. I don`t need a reason.

Probably the first 20 minutes of Saving Private Ryan - both moving and shocking. Very realistic and made shocking because it was actually what happened, not fantasy violence.

FA missing the point over Cole The Wembley crowd did not boo Ashley Cole just because he made a mistake. They booed him because they cannot stand him. All Cole's awful back-pass against Kazakhstan did was present the audience with the ideal opportunity to remind him of that fact. These people are not 'crazy', as an FA spokesman complained, unless it was a reference to the ticket prices they had paid. They had no need to feel 'ashamed' about it either, despite the entreaties of Rio Ferdinand. When Cole (right) admits he was crazy to issue his revolting wage complaints on leaving Arsenal, or even to wear that hideous Bacofoil suit and flaunt his bling in OK! magazine; when he confesses he is ashamed that he turned his back on referee Mike Riley in that infamous act of petulance; maybe then, when he does all that, the English public might give him a break. In the meantime, I'd say a boo is a mild reaction. From todays Des Kelly column in the Mail. I agree with this.

Bugger!

This is a job for Sherlock Trousers if ever there was one!

Things must be REALLY slow in Dubai at the moment!

I see your Zoidberg and raise you a Pilsplang!! I win!!

Excellent! A Jackson Browne reference!

I think all in all probabiltly Chris Nicholl. Things may have turned sour towards the end but I think (although I haven`t checked) that he was manager for 6 seasons so he must have done something right. Who is to say that things wouldn`t have turned sour with WGS, GH,etc if they had stayed as long as Nicholl? We were never world-beaters under him but we knew that we were capable of beating anybody on our day. You used to go to games with a certain amount of confidence (not always justified!) unlike recent years.
