John Boy Saint

The thing I like about Chaplow is that he knows that the object of Football is to put the ball into the net more times than the opposition, so always seems to want to get into the box as quick as possible, when Spiderman came on the other night his first choice of play seemed to be sideways. That said I would like to see Chaplow and Schneiderlin given a run in midfield as I think they are dynamic players in their own style, that might prove to be a potent combination.

They want to put a station in where I live, it is on the Reading Basingstoke line so a very quiet route compared to Waterloo to Southampton, but network rail said that the disruption to the timetable would make it unfeasible. So a "Rogue" train trundling up a strange track would cause an absolute network meltdown probably with tremors felt out on the far west coast of Scotland. . . . And a damn good excuse for industrial action.

Don't care! As long as I get to walk out of St Marys with a Colgate smile after every game.

He nearly did it 3 times, except Fonte steamed in to make sure it hit the back of the net.

Yeah right Crouchie!! You told him that you were longer in the shower than me!!! Next thing you will be telling folks is that you will be picked for England and are off to Liverpool in the summer!!

Think about it, it gets very busy there already!

:facepalm:Won't be for much longer!!

Sometimes when a boat is in port; mostly they have Ricketts, Smallpox, and the like, but the Sarsons in the k o c kles keeps 'em chipper!

You get parking tickets there, if you know what I mean?

That would be a bit steep to pay to part there............................... although you could parachute out of a Flybe plane straight into St Marys if public transport does not appeal. The spot down by the floating Bridge under the Itchen bridge is a good shout and its is a bit cheaper too.

There is a Plan A ~ B ~ C ~probably D & E too! Saturday afternoon Puncheon and Lallana swapped sides I said to the guys alongside me "changing those 2 over has taken the sting from our play a little" within less than a minute of me saying it Adkins had put them back to where they started.

Great news! I still have 4 boxes of merchandise from the last time they rocked up!!

I saw a couple of older gentlemen yesterday in the shop they were wearing our new shirt, but these shirts looked like they had both been climbing trees, scrimping, and rolling down hills on their way to the ground.

That just about sums up todays game. Tranmere were not crap we just had them chasing shadows all afternoon, they quickly worked out that they better keep the score respectable. Guly was great today, when the ball was played out to the corner in the build up to the first goal you thought initially "chuffin hell who was that to!!??" next thing you know Guly is there in a flash tee'ing up for Rickie to head home (boy did that header have some frustration behind it). When someone said Nigel Adkins was in the frame for manager with us I was more than delighted, he must be in heaven himself because, no disrespect to Scunny, he has a great set of players to work with without the budget restrictions he has done miracles with before. What a treat 2 weeks running to come home from a very pleasing Saints performance.

Have we Skacel signed yet?

I liked the one this morning on the 1st while they were dilly dallying with the mist floating in and out, some wag cried out "come on get a move on, I don't think I will be able to swing Tuesday off"!!

Most enjoyable afternoon, good to see a fuller stadium, and the blokes I sit with back into 14 years old down the Dell on the Milton mode. Thought Barny had a great game, although the player who impresses me every week is Butterfield he plays good honest football in the typical Lawrie Mac road sweeper style. Good to see the Adkins stamp beginning to show on the team.

Quite funny the Yanks waterproofs were not waterproof!! That's that company on a slippery slope now.

I have a magic car, given to me by my company: magic diesel, magic tyres, magic insurance, magic....................... Company car tax though is criminal!!!!

I had a car with a registration H69TCP which fitted the the joke: what comes after 69?.................... mouthwash!

Of course it's too soon to put your heating on you softy, (give it a burn to check it works by all means) then put on a jumper. :-)

Happy with the Rat you had at other meal times?

Taking Thunderstorm pictures from a plane, and no images of St Elmo's fire round the wings................ boooo!! ;-)

Why do stupid people put their fog lights on when its raining like Noahs back in a job and its dark. They are so dumb that they have no idea that those behind them have about 1% chance of seeing their brake lights come on. Why does my mobile always go off when Iam standing at a urinal without a free hand.

Just acquired 2 more jars ready for industrial production, put a tad too much sugar in last time, as much as I would like to wait until the first frost the foragers are out in force at the moment as the trees round our way are creaking under the weight of the sloes. The last lot I did manage to allow to brew for a full year. What a great colour and taste. For added clarity I patiently put the stuff through paper coffee filters, takes a while but worth it for crystal clear (when you put arc light behind it) sauce.
