Folks like an underdog, add Cameron and Milliband into the mix trying to belittle them and it just boosts their chances with the common man especially as they offer a bigger kick in the guts than the Lib Dems. Polling Day should be moved to a weekend as how many folks who commute to work get home after 7pm and all they want to do is have their dinner and put their feet up to unwind, not traipse down to the Scout Hut to put an X in a box on a bit of paper. It was my 18year Old Daughters first time to vote yesterday but whereas I looked forward to my first trip as it was a rite of passage, she was pretty inert to the whole idea of going to vote.

Is Ricky Lambert preparing for life after football?
John Boy Saint replied to Norm's topic in The Saints
Some dopey bugger will probably vote for them due to the name association. -
Cortese speaking to BBC for first time since leaving Saints
John Boy Saint replied to Saint Garrett's topic in The Saints
If winning that "tin pot trophy" did anything on 2 occasions it has stopped the Chelsea fans signing their bloody Champions of Europe song endlessly at SMS as the repost of "JPT you'll never win that" has left them left them dazed and confused with no reply. For me having been to 3 Saints Finals, a play-off Final, and the FA Trophy final (the latter 2 as a guest supporter) to finally walk away from Wembley after 30 years of disappointment as a winning supporter makes it a worthy trophy in my eyes. -
Thats it Adam put another log on the fire to keep it going.................... Although the speed this thread went from start to 3 pages shows that the merest spark and a light Zephyr and away we go like a tinderbox.

Bob or Tony?

The fact that they have achieved it in a league where Real Madrid and Barcelona alone get something like 55% of the TV money shows that it is possible with the right players and work ethic. Didn't Simeone and MP play under the same Argentine manager who is held in high esteem for his management style, a style that seems to have rubbed off on the 2 of them. If we can keep everyone here and add well then there should be no reason why we can't upset the Applecart or at least ruffle a few more feathers.

Taters and Townsend aren't far behind
-
What niggled a bit was all the chit chat from the taters "9 years has been a long wait" really? Bloody Hull have been waiting 115 years! Football on TV really is a table for 5 or 6 Diners!

So glad we have the BT Sport option only downside Owen talking cobblers

How the Dickens do you get them? I can't think of anything you write that has me scrambling to write a letter to the Daily Mail................. But then the ability to be able to write the C word without stars in the middle probably doesn't help!

Nope he's back already from Skeggy, as they could only afford a week with the "Sensational Family Holidays for only £10 only in The Sun!!" due to the over usage penalties from their internet provider severely denting the Family finances somewhat.

Nice

Playing Golf yesterday and one of the lads works in sports media (Saints fan too), as the 4 of us ambled round football popped up on the agenda, I commented that you would think we had just been relegated the way the Vultures are circling above our team, this chap said a pretty reliable ITK friend of his mentioned another Spanish speaking manager is on Levy's radar.
-
I expect our interest a pretty credible bargaining tool in those negotiations.
-
They are all looking at their phones........... Probably got texts from their Wives telling them to not even think about going to the Casino then Lap Dancing afterwards as that nice Mr Levy with huge pockets full of cash won't like that on the back page of the Sun................... (If that is Les) His is from Ralph telling him to get them roaring drunk and into some un-savoury scrapes and to stick it all on the company card.

He'll like living so close to the New Forest then: there are loads of them lurking in there!!

He's gone to Skegness on his Holibobs in a caravan with his Mum, Dad and Nan, there is no t'internet but Steve Grant should receive a postcard any day now at Saintsweb global headquarters which he can post for us all to read.

Undersoil heating being installed at St Mary's
John Boy Saint replied to itchen_dan's topic in The Saints
The system that was reputedly installed on construction was blow suck system like Wet Spam have, blown hot air and a draining suck system that had the capacity to handle a downpour of Typhoon proportions of 8" per hour!!! The draining system was alledgedly not connected because the drains around St Mary's didn't have the capacity to handle the potential volume of water drawn off from a typical UK very heavy 1" an hour downpour. Another anorak fact grass grows when the soil temperature is 7c and above. -
Premier League Broadcast and Merit Payments for 2013/14
John Boy Saint replied to stevegrant's topic in The Saints
Anyone with any sense isn't going to go and purchase a neon sign to say how much money they have to fritter away over a transfer window, spread a myth that the departing CEO was a bit naughty leaving a Skeleton in the cupboard so we are a bit skint, Man U have made no secret that they have a bulging war chest and punted an opening bid for Luke of £27m which knowing that, we have alledgedly told them to go away. Trouble is Swiss secret (nothing to do with you) business practise is being applied and with all the media spin on what they assume we as fans get caught and confused by the smoke and mirrors bring applied. just a mere rambling thought. -
But then if the container goes to Felixstowe because landing at Southampton is more expensive and there is a light breeze the ship won't be unloaded on h&s ground so the container will vanish of the system then pop up 5 days later in Rotterdam waiting to be either put on a ship going the other way or the back of a wagon to come to the Uk by road................ So I make that a week after the season has started!
