John Boy Saint

No not Redmond - Tella 🙄

Arse!!!!!!!

Blackmore and Merrington are in full Waldorf and Stadler off the Muppets mode. Hoping after the first half performance that they don’t have bloody long drive home after the second half………..again! 😂Blackmore just referred to Bruce as Mr Potato face!!😂

Ah but you know after Sunday we will get tagged as a team of Norman Hunters and Chopper Harris’s because of the way we roughed up United (regardless of the fact that Pogba committed a foul on Adam’s that was straight out of the 1970’s in its intent). It’s amazing that there have been any match reports from last nights games seeing as just about every Footie Journo was seemingly spewing out miles of column inches about Kane.

You just know it - perfect hat-trick then standing with his hand on his hips out on the wing miles from the ball at St James Park Saturday and in for the next 6 games.

When this happened Jack told him a few home truths - probably including I couldn’t give a toss who you are stop being a big girls blouse and suck it up buttercup. Jack walked away, and Prowsey kept walking with Fernandes looked like he was running the Zaha repertoire - Fernades looked to still be in a daze from Jack verbal assault.

Most football clubs are once you go beyond the main product - most of the arrogance comes from knowing your core customer base isn’t going away like Sainsbury’s customers might suddenly switch to Tesco because the bread is better. Good few years ago I was selling a product that was beyond perfect for club shops - I was told to stay well away by the MD

Phew - I can have Sunday cooked breakfast, listen the Archers omnibus before making the trip down the M3 in a leisurely manner. Postman was playing games though as he shuffled the envelopes mine was on top Mrs JBS’s was mixed with the rest and yet another bloody Dominos menu.

I went to a show in London on Saturday and all these things were required to be seen before entry into theatre. I had my NHS Covid pass QR code, but showed them my little card from when I was jabbed “ok that’s fine”. I’ll see if that gets me through the check on Sunday

If you don’t go on the website everyday you are likely to miss that, especially as the way news presented on the website. Unless you diligently browse the OS every day with the hood up on your anorak, something presented on Monday requires searching back for on Tuesday more intently, that’s if you feel inclined to look at Monday’s stories after losing yet again on the weekend. Looking at the media output that spews out of the club there are enough clever clogs in the place to sticky a message about Season Tickets on the the opening page to be seen for the whole week not one day. Especially when every expectant season ticket holder is contacting the club with the same question. The way media is presented and digested online these days, what’s posted as news at 9am is old news by 17:30 when you are having a browse whilst dunking your rich tea………. At the end of the day it’s still laissez faire customer service, but then it always has been towards season ticket holders.

I just phoned the TO just to see if I need to set off earlier on Sunday should I have to get into the queue at the ticket office to get some means of getting in. There was a recorded message to say they are being despatched in the middle of the week, so as today is hump day I suppose they are leaving now, and will be with us “in good time later in the week”. Give them another couple of days then I guess - shockingly tin pot.

According to Blackburn fans apparently he was out there when first at Blackburn and a bit of Chocolate Teapot in that position especially compared to when he was played more centrally and started rattling them into the back of the net at will.

If I sell £600 worth of my product to one of my customers and DPD fail to deliver it due to their cockup in reasonable time - my customer doesn't phone DPD they phone me and if the items were required by a specific date I expect to have my ears chewed off. As far as the customer is concerned from placing the order to receiving the goods our transaction is between me and them is end to end regardless of the 3rd party carrier who has failed to deliver mislaid the goods. So if you are posting that as someone from behind the TO glass or connected to someone in there.......... you are the seller, you've taken the money, and as yet you have failed to deliver the goods in reasonable time having known the deadline of when the season starts, all along not offering a single update to your customer. I'm sorry but in just about any other industry you are going to get the heat from your customer and in this case 15,000 customers (at a guess) there is going to be a sprinkling of abuse............especially when you have their money in your bank account.

Sorry to back track But I would delighted to see Saints in the Charity Shield especially given the qualification criteria

"to engage with inactive account holders or those who had bought a ticket for some time" .........by sending out an email that looks as dodgy as £7 note.

You can bet your bottom dollar Mr Deans ball will have been pre warmed prior to going in the hat to pulled out for a marquee game such as this. Sunday afternoon live on the tellybox, and the TV execs dream of seeing us battered, where else would he wish to be to help things along but in the middle of St Marys pitch, with pocket full of brand new cards and a shiny whistle in his gob 🤪

Probably because they HAVE been busting their chops running drills for the past week come Saturday they’re burnt out.

Abducted by Aliens?? …………or the Aliens came to take him home!

Don’t agree games he played last season the general observation even on these cynical pages was pretty much “good to see Fraser now coming off the line!!”.

I just looked at that first goal for Everton again and whilst many are pointing the finger at Salisu - that was more likely down to the cocking about swapping keepers in and out - that’s a deceptive looping ball coming in too high to jump for and being on the edge of the 6 yard box its flight is more a keepers ball - McCarthy, as has become his way, hesitates to come, the newer version of Fraser having seemingly had the screws removed from his boots on the goal line is going to come and likely punch it. Salisu looks wrong footed by the looping flight that McCarthy should come for and it’s in the zone where if he moves any closer to goal he is likely to impede the keeper, and be wiped out by the tree that is Forster if he is there. The Premier league is tough enough for defenders to keep out Apex Predator goal scorers - without having to also consider the nuances of which keeper is between the sticks this week. We are the only team dicking about rotating the key position of a defence - make a choice stick with him and take one less thought out of the defenders heads. To me, give Forster a proper run. If you have stood on the pitch at St Mary’s and looked at the goal from the edge of the box, it is remarkably much smaller than it looks from the stands and on TV. Stick a unit like Fraser in there, also having the wingspan of an Albatross, and the target is even smaller, meaning whoever is going to take a pot shot is having to consider the shot more, it forces that brief additional moment of thought and allows the defence to close him down even more. You can’t have settled defence when you are playing lucky dip with the keepers.

Super Frank AND John Terry Ying and Yang - nice Frank and his enforcer John Adkins was nice but Andy Crosby was the enforcer. just thought I’d toss in some cobblers

We had a Golf tour at Celtic Manor and a plan was forming to go out on the town in Newport - I said I’ll be skipping that as it’s renowned as the Wild West especially on a weekend night - they just scoffed at that and carried on with a bit of a plan. Until one of my local mates stepped in to cover one of our group who was taken ill, he heard of the plan and told them that not even he would go to Newport for night out if we paid him “if you really want to go out - trust me, get on the train to Cardiff”. This will likely be on the box as Newport have given a few higher teams have been given the runaround or bloody nose in recent times.

Oh aye.

Last time we went there 5 years ago ish - we aimed for the parking at Walton Hall Park as it seemed to offer a trouble free escape back to the M57. When we got there we noticed lots of cars parked on the roadside with more arriving and Toffee people getting out their cars. No yellow lines or restriction signs - we said “chance it” pulled up parked, another car pulled up parked in front of us, Dad and his Daughter scarfed and shirted up. He said they had parked there for a few seasons with no issues whatsoever. We said we'll follow you as you know where you are going “we’re going to the pub” yup we’re definitely following you 😁 M57 towards Southport exit A580 East Lancs Road towards Liverpool - passing retail parks and Cineworld - you should soon see pleasant houses on the left and Walton Park on the right over the central reservation U turn to be facing the right way for home. 10-15 minute walk from the ground. Having typed all that probably Yellow Lines now and a ticket machine - worth a look still and an easy escape

Must be another Putin plan to unsettle the West as I have Sexy Russian Babes in Basingstoke!!
