John Boy Saint

Shame they didn't get a second Hovercraft in and have a race. Still seeing a Hovercraft on the pitch was a bit surreal!!

I have a mate who was on the books of Bristol City then Aston Villa, he played against Shearer and Wallace with his academy team, because of the surroundings he was use to he thought he was invincible, until the day him and his mate went to meet some girls they had met who never turned up as arranged. The two of them missed the team bus and that was the end of both their football careers. He says he can remember sitting on the stairs listening to the Villa youth coach telling his Mum & Dad that their son had blown his chance in football.......... That was it, the guy is now a retail buyer. Leon Best is a lucky boy that he was allowed to get away with bad attitude, and now finds himself in the Premiership on the crest of a wave.

Not seen a Thunderstorm for ages......... Counting the Flash to rumble 10 miles south of Basingstoke & getting closer!

Not Saints but back in the 80s there was a trip to Stamford Bridge with work folk, one bloke in the group was not the sharpest pencil in the box. First half Kerry Dixon was "come on Terry!". 2nd half after a few lads tried to correct him as he was attracting the wrong kind of attention, it was "come on Perry"! By about 75 mins this bloke had 10sq feet to himself on the terrace!

This and those HCDAJFU threads where any old has been pit pony is viewed as being a great addition to the squad just because they were a sticker in someone's Panini album!

1) even the club knew this was going to be a one man and his dog attendance as they tried to link a discounted ticket offer to the Boro game and the Boro game. 2) Perhaps he has chosen now was the right time in his life to tell the real truth and to come out!

compared with Do-Do-Da-Do "Steve de Ridder" usual half a brain cell used normal bill of fair! .......................... you missed the bit used ahead of imaginative: I think that makes it 1-1

I cant believe the some of the comments above, last nights game became very strange and pedestrian after we went 2 up and then they went down to 10 men, so folks decided to amuse themselves. The call of Steeeeeeeeeeeve was a tad strange and a bit imaginative in the grand scheme players names usually sung to 2 or3 "backing tracks". Spreading it through the rest of the team as the ball was passed about was inoffensive too. Despite there being a few numpties amongst the crowd, especially in the Northam, at least we actually make the effort to make a noise. If we have got to the stage where we have to sit in silence for fear of being maligned by fellow fans for trying out a new chant then we might as well not bother turning up. at Reading last weekend they had 2 songs at a push, Arsenal fans sing chuff all, at least we have a regular repertoire of at least 10 songs.

Got a mate who has been on call over night, he whiled the witching hours away tap tapping. Just had a tap while eating my breakfast , at 90.5% it is now taking some tapping to make the numbers change.

Er.......... Basingstoke Town: going like a train this season.

Do you think you can get medication for this kind of condition, whoever it is must have worn out carpet from the pensive pacing up and down between tweets and wake up in the night soaking wet in a cold sweat from not having tweeted some cobblers in the past 10 minutes.............................. Feel free to mock me: is this a spoof site????!!!

Good innings, did so much for charity. RIP Sir Jimmy

Obviously these knobs haven't got the message from our leader Mr Adkins: TOGETHER AS ONE But then obviously these dinlows can't process this message either spoken or written! Cripes imagine if they made the Northam all Saints they would be all worn out from all that ST waving at 2 thirds of the stand...................... But then with that many newbies in the Northam they probably wouldn't have the minerals to be so pathetic.

I am going to wake up in a pool of ice cold water soon as I get woken up from a very deep slumber and the most surreal dream I am having about Saints playing some sublime football. Something I enjoy is the fact that we have a bench that continues the relentlessness of our play. Bloke walking out summed things up nicely " how nice it is not having to turn the paper upside down to make us look better"

Chaplow without a doubt, but I am amazed that Hooiveld has not been mentioned in despatches I thought that he looked the stronger of the centre back pairing today, without a doubt the strongest performance I have seen from him at SMS so far. That Lambert bloke looks a bit useful too: he was everywhere.

For sheer technical superiority today's third has to be right up near, if not, at the top. For sheer brutal ferocity Bairds exocet when we all thought we had pigged up another free kick will live with me forever: the brief moment of silence around the ground as the net was almost ripped from the posts capped it.

I always thought most of those guys grew up in houses where Pa-pa was a fully paid up union man down the docks, who would prefer to argue about ways to make the company being better, rather than actually doing some work: then at the first opportunity walking out on strike. But when the dock companies dug their heals in and bit back, these then trained and groomed union youth next generation had their opportunity to continue the family trade ripped from them before they could really start. So the likes of Askham & Lowe dicking around with the club became the perfect vent for all this pent up ire. Cripes it must really puddle their brains now to have had the opportunity for confrontation ripped away from them again, especially as we are now a football club run on an even keel with Billionaire backing, and from where I sit in the stands, what seems a sound rational to keep things going in a forwards direction.

According to Leeds mates he will be very well suited to Brighton.......... and the lifestyle there

Ah well that gets that out of the system

AAAAre we gifting them this?? ahem

Rickie given the nod

Sounds like they are playing this game in a bucket!!!

Poo!!!

Here is a test for Martin having Jack Cork alongside him in the centre of defence!!

Is that Dixie? (that'll be lost on few youngsters) just wondered who Dean is, can't be Mr Hammond or is the next game but one ruling still in force.
