This Can't Be Right. Big Brother Under The Tories
John Boy Saint replied to View From The Top's topic in The Lounge
Not sure if it's the same today as it was in its original state before Microsoft got their paws on it, but Skype was always the most secure, secret, encrypted, whatever you want to call it system of communicating over the Internet without anyone, including Skype themselves, being able to access, hack, or monitor the traffic. A few years ago various intelligence agency's requested access and Skype said no. -
There is nothing to celebrate, so silence is apt. Southampton is a Maritime city with a very long history with the sea, this is the most notable maritime disaster that taught people so much, with a famous ship who's home city was Southampton. Although many folks were from elsewhere 4 out of 5 crew members were from Southampton. Of those who perished A Third were from Southampton. Everyone got their knickers in a knot over Muamba, but 100 years ago this event devastated the city: My late Grandad was a nipper when she left Southampton he always recalled it like it was yesterday, also being under 10 at the time he always said about the numb devastation in the city after the event because everyone knew someone who died. Southampton is famous throughout the world because of its maritime history, Titanic will never let people forget that throughout the world.......................A minutes silence will not cost anyone any inconvenience to remember those ordinary folks from our fine city.

Actually if it was that bad: how at 3-0 down did we have stats showing we had 64% possession! That should equate to total annihilation of the opposition on Paper

Tommy Forecast would be sent off in the first 10 minutes, two yellows: both for catching the ball and drop kicking it up field!!

When we played Man U and beat them 1-0 a few years back Man U players commented that the pitch at SMS was running slow, that was because Strachan had told the groundstaff not to cut or water the grass prior to the game and had the team training on it in preparation for a slightly slower run of the ball. Looking at the bare patch next to the goal yesterday it didn't look too clever. Still at the same time we played like strangers at times looked a re run of Leicester.

I think at the end of the day it is quite a shrewd move by the Government, despite the inconvenience. Union pipes up and thinks fuel drivers strike, pensions are a bit shy of what they should be, members being asked to work a bit quicker for their £45k-£50k a year for an 8 hour day, hint at pigging up the Easter Holidays with strikes when they think it will be most news worthy. The Government knows what the fuel stocks are around the country, whip up a little frenzy to deplete the stocks, the nations backs will be up as queues start up. As it works too well, downscale the issue, to prevent total shut down, but the nation is ****ed off already, so the Union suddenly knows that they will get zero support from the public and climbs down from the Easter threat. That dopey bint in the Kitchen just became a "casualty of war", no body could believe anyone could be so dense as to decant Petrol in the kitchen while the gas cooker is Switched on! If anyone is to blame beyond this stupid person, it's the Union for sparking talk of a strike and the media for whipping it up. Yeah "bloody Tories!" er coalition! Labour would have just pulled their own trousers down and bend over the desk and piddled more money up the wall.

As soon as I saw it was you posting I automatically reached for the towel in in readiness for a rinsing................ dont expect us to be so nice the next time you sit with us!!! How I wish I was heading to Blackpool and not entertaining the family!

Food got 10 folks needing a feed tomorrow lunchtime................. sorry for the confusion. Charlie Chans? Pilgrim House?....?.....?........

Bit cheeky but put it here before for a bigger viewing prior to it bumping to the Lounge. Where is the best Chinese lunchtime Buffet in Southampton that isn't the order as you go all you can eat and leave anything and we charge you full menu rates? Cheers:D

Blimey some folks are really tempting the Murray Walker "he has a clear track in front of him to the chequered flag...............................WOW: he has totally lost control of the car and its turning over and over" chickens counted backlash here. Charlton bloody Athletic!! Away live on Sky midday kick off!!!

So long as there are a pair of Stilettos on the feet I could not give a monkeys!!!

Cheers Scotty you stinker for the edit. You must work for the sign zone late night on the BBC, except in this case help for the hard of not being able to insert pure filth into the written word out of their own imaginations. Nice to see that the much Maligned Muppet show cares for those less fortunate in the wider Saints community.

Worked with a very nice lass once who gave the impression that this kind of bedroom fun would be at the very bottom of her list. Then one night over dinner 10 of us sat round the table and the alcohol flowing nicely this subject popped up out of the blue, she pipes up "ooh we quite like doing that, we refer to it as going up the lakes!!". ......... One of the lads spurted a load of White wine over the table at this revelation. So the husband on mumsnet might not have been that wide of the mark!!!

I won't be counting the Chickens until I see a Fat Lady having a gargle before running up and down through her scales!

New ticketing system and oyalty points next season
John Boy Saint replied to sifter's topic in The Saints
The smart chip will register when you leave the game early, when you have accrued 45mins of early leaving at half time in a random game your seat and "terrace" will lock you in and then sink into the ground automatically replacing you with a replacement fan who has been waiting patiently in a holding area for this very moment. -
Who do you want to go up to and down from the Premiership?
John Boy Saint replied to SaintBobby's topic in The Saints
I like the fact that some folks are eager for QPR to go down only to pick up Taraabt and SWP!! Obviously after nearly 2 seasons of Adkins they still don't get it, stick them on the same side of the boat and we will be rowing in a great big circle. Both bloody useless to quote a QPR ST holder............ But hey let's add Barton to the shopping list and get a crap trio to throw into the bargain! -
Just maybe this is another of BFS's weird ways of trying to unsettle us, planting a yarn like this for a few to sweat over in the hope that it seeps into the team casting seeds of doubt through the squad: amazed that we have sucked this up enough to go to 2 pages already!!
-
I thought we were the Judian People's Front............ Still blessed are the Cheesemakers! Strange I thought everyone knew we had a player factory like what Crewe have churning out household names of the future.
-
Little Warning QPR had it in the bag for the last game last season the bunting was out and they went and lost the last game! Look at the precarious position they are in now just because they let their guard down in their final game of the Championship. You never see the top teams taking pity on their opposition they just go out to get the job done, Alex Ferguson had no idea that he had just relegated his mate Brian Kidd after Man U had done Blackburn until someone told him in the post match TV interview, he sent his players out to win again.

Simple Dodge, call yourself a Church, get yourself a Sunday morning TV slot not forgetting your 0800 cough-up-you-gullible-fools telephone number and you can say what you like to like minded souls.

Saints 2 V 0 Doncaster Post Match Chat!!
John Boy Saint replied to SOTONS EAST SIDE's topic in The Saints
9 points in a week, what more can you ask for? (still not enough for some of the miserable gits sat around us). We are good, very good. We are very disciplined and patient in our play don't get flustered or jittery, we just work to a simple attractive system. Donny came for a draw and we bided our time then punished them. What a great corner from Fox, that Sharpe nodded in. Then Sharp showed his strength to snaffle the ball away and slot it in the net. Well done lads. Have a thought for the tiny nipper in the half-time relay, on the halfway line by the Kingsland. His team mate came down the line like a train, slammed on the brakes then fell on their backside Skittling the little chap in the process, fair play to him he recovered quickly & complete with limp made a good change over........... His team won in the end. -
Always astounds me too, but then I am a tight ar$€ so I want to get full value for my £20 odd quid. I have said it before: August 2003 v Man Utd at 85minutes (0-0) on a Sunday the early leavers bell went off and the ants started down the stairs. On 88 minutes we scored a winner all those early leavers must have been gutted...... What a shame - NOT! Yes it's their prerogative to leave early, but if you are one please get on with it and bugger off because the amount of faffing about you see blocking the view of those behind................ Today in the Chapel 4 or 5 left and looked to be discussing their movements for the rest of the week oblivious to the game and those still watching!!! For those who don't think the players notice, they certainly do. Be funny if a couple of them ambled off the pitch at 85 minutes

Getting a booze cruise coach trip together: who wants to add their name to the list. Only a gag but you can see the return of the Booze Cruise to France.

As I posted on the other ticket mither thread. "We must be so stinking rich to apply policies that minimise tickets sales rather than encourage them to sell out" What is stunning is that Season Ticket holders are treated just like any other pay as you go customer, despite being naive enough to invest in the club up front. Getting a head start on away and cup tickets is very nice thank you. My mate has a ST and a son in full time education which also takes up many Saturdays so he is home for Easter and able to go to all the games, but his Dad has a Donny ticket just going to waste in his wallet: bit cheesy really. But hey the majority just roll with it.
