John Boy Saint

That is the line that I am looking at, in this current climate. What is the long term prospect of the job and company you are going too, or is it an internal move. I lost my job in 1992 when the carry on regarding jobs we are having now swept through the country. Interest rates spiralled to the point where I was paying over £600 per month on a £64,000 mortgage, plus the endowment, and a payment protection insurance with General Accident that was not worth the paper it was issued on. It was only the Diamonds that I was sh!tting that kept the roof over our heads All I would say is proceed with caution, plan for the worst, and if it comes you will be prepared for it.

Well they were under the control of someone who had the interests of the club at stake. Unfortunately Saints have an egomaniac at the helm who like many who have worked in the city has the "as long as I get what I want I don't give a sh1t how many people I tread into the dirt getting there" attitude. Why else would someone not have bought what was a sound package before now........ Everything comes back to one man. Still we will wait and see how much of this is a wind up.

Now all we need is for the FA to discover both sides fielded ineligible players and deduct 3 points from each as a result............................... Ho hum.

What a shocker, you know you are getting older when the people who you use to marvel at pass on to the other side. Vision On was compulsive viewing when I was a nipper, how I would have loved to have had a go at those pictures using a line making machine in the playground. Cheers for entertaining me Tony.

Is this a tad subliminal for the NSFW department, or is it because of the damage inflicted on rubber by 2 rows of pR1 :-)

I have been saying that every since the longest slow motion car crash in history began. But then the Politburo won't look beyond the sound and rational for even the faintest hope of a solution. Someone said about the changing rooms, we use psychological tactics in there, obviously they need revisiting because they are not working at the moment. Maybe the mirrors behind the toilet doors should be changed from ones where you can admire the wedding vegetables to ones that make those parts look tiny and the upper ones make you look a bit of a bunter. Or get someone to really polish the floor like Shankly use to instruct at Anfield.

Thanks for all of your comments and advice, I eventually got around to doing it and it went on (so far without any issues........... touch wood). It works too, there was a grey area within the agreement but then having bought the software with my own money in the first place where is the problem? I shall await the knock on the door.

Derby had a year in the prem, so had the nicer high windfall for coming last, £27m I believe, and have a parachute for the next 2 years and they are still in the poo deeper than us............ League position apart.

As usual all motions at the weekly St Mary's Board meeting were carried due to no sensible objections being made.

Despite asking the question last week it remains on my to do list, so as it has caused so much heated debate I had better get on with it and report back my findings. Just to keep the grey cells ticking though when the XP was installed on the old computer this bit of software needed to be re installed as everything had been flushed out of it. I think I am right in believing that Dell also have, or had, a lot of no password or installation codes required software at one time so that when they "made" the computer for you it was bish bash bosh stick a label on the box and send it. Or am I being slightly naive to folklore when in fact the computers own inner identity was the password that went onto the Microsoft system. I best give it go tonight!

All those people who have lost their homes as a result of losing their job having to turn to association housing

That is the key to so much, Graham "do I not like Orange" Taylor on that celeb v stars thinghy on Sky a couple of years ago always said good players look all around themselves taking mental photographs of where people are. In addition to that, who remembers the uproar when SCW wanted to bring in that Kiwi Eye specialist, who's soul aim was to train the eyes to maximise peripheral vision capabilities.

My MD had a fully spec'd 7 series that destroyed batteries at an alarming rate and when you slammed the brakes on you had to put on your wellies as water would rush from under the rear footwell to the front. That car spent more time in the Beemer garage than it did out on the road but they never did work out where the water came from or what happened to the batteries. If he had bought the car brand new it would have set him back in excess of £70k.

Blimey I had a touch of dyslexia while reading that list when I got to Andy Ritchie I thought it said Andy Peters: but then he could probably do a far better job than most of them on that list.

Who take us apart by as many goals as we all stupidly thought Manure would stuff us by, before they had both goalies sent off along with Ronaldo for kicking out while he was on the floor and we got 2 further (dubious) penalties to scrape through the 3rd round 4 -3.

When I bought my original Dell it came with Windows 98 and included Home office as part of the Software package, after a glitch in the system the W98 was replaced with XP and the Home office was re loaded and worked a treat. That old Dell has been replaced with another that has Windows XP, can anyone see any reason why we can't reload Home office again as it has about 8 accompanying clip art discs and a very simple but effective photo editing programme called 'Photo Me' both of these last things are mainly for the benefit of my kids as I am cheesed off with them being online and Beebo MSN et al getting in the way of their homework. Cheers in advance

The one thing that WH Smiths has is Newspaper Distribution, thousands of little independent retailers and even multiples are supplied their daily newspaper requirement by WH Smiths. There is not a van from the Sun and then another from the Telegraph and so on making individual deliveries. Also if you notice they have downsized many of their stores over the years from the massive ones they use to trade from. All the stores without a true identity are the ones that will suffer, Woolies lost their identity years ago they were appealing to the Wilkinson Poundland customer but without the value. Pier were chintzy stores with no substance, Whittards were very specialist, Zavvi never got into peoples conciousness like Virgin did, and they suffered mainly because their main supplier went pop on the back of Woolies. So WH Smith better hope Tesco don't move into Newspaper distribution, although that is a fairly closed shop to anyone wishing to make in roads: Just ask Eddie Shah

There are shed loads to recall, but the one goal that will stand out was Bairds v Cardiff. When Bale took the free kick and Surman appeared to stumble over the sideways pass the collective groan from the crowd at another blown opportunity could not be missed, Chris Baird connected with the not the easiest ball to strike with such ferocity you could see the vapour trail as it nearly took the back of the net out: in fact if their goalie had manged to get a hand to the ball he would have snapped his wrist. The momentary stunned silence before the crowd erupted could not be missed. For a Goal at the Dell I liked all the Phil Boyer goals, but one from Matty that stands out was against Crystal Palace towards the end of a season. Sat in the Milton Matty lit one that from where I, and everyone in its path behind the goal, was sitting had nice save goalkeeper written all over it, but some how it evaded the Palace goalie and nestled in the back of the net: everyone in its flight path in the Milton just sat there stunned for a moment while everyone else either side of us all was going loopy.

Monday ~ Went an got the tyres replaced on Missus John Boys motor, The queue at Micheldever was very long. Tuesday ~ Had bad guts; did little. Wednesday ~ Garage as the glow plugs are playing up, then office for couple hours. The round friends for a Chinese banquet from the best Chinese in north Hampshire. Thursday ~ Recovery and hopefully a nice stroll. Friday ~ A little bit of work Saturday ~ probably making a start on taking down Blackpool illuminations Sunday ~ Finding somewhere to watch the game and getting exceedingly drunk before hand to numb the pain.

I have a Bulti Billionaire distant relative pass away after a very long and very happy life leaving me with more money than I know what to do with. I then can then buy Saints with the loose change and turn this club back into the Club all us supporters deserve. In reality I hope we survive by the skin of our teeth but in doing so our team mature into a team that is far more capable to handle the rigours of getting us up and out of this league.

The one thing you would say for him, he is the kind of no nonsense player we need to make us a bit harder in this rufty tufty league.

Matey for Forest's 2nd the other week that was a little bit special, and looking at the amount of people applauding it in the Kingsland alone they agree with me.

Somebody said that they met Robbie Savage at an airport and he said that no-one on the Derby Playing staff liked Jewell.

Twiglets were always better when they were the longer ones years ago. The smell of Twiglets always reminded me of going round to an Auntie & Uncles in Portswood where my Dad and Uncle Tom would smoke small Cigars whilst my sister and I would munch our way through a box of Twiglets. Cheese Footballs when you had sucked your way through half a packet would make your tongue sore. but you still kept on munching them.
