You have just enough time for a quick bite at Cabbages and Condoms.

Been a while since last "where are they now (posters)" thread?

Yup! As you say "very special" ...................... most on here spotted the multi login alter ego's - but never put Alpine on his list. -
Amazed at no mention of the ladies 1-0 mid table win away at Charlton yesterday. I guess the chaps getting a win on Saturday surprised everyone 🙃

I think he WAS also Alpine too - middle of a thread once Heisenburg/Glasgow and Alpine were digging at each other, then there was a context error plus the sides of the argument flipped! Hmmmm? I made an observational quip about them being one and the same upon spotting this. An hour or so later I have a PM pop up, politely but firmly asking me to edit my post. -
As Jezza Clarkson would say - “We did a thing!”.

Watched Tamworth v Huddersfield in the cup - very nice watch Tamworth winning from a Torpedoed throw in flapped into the net by the Terriers keeper. Even came with a squeaky bum 7 minutes of added time.

What is it with defending corners with all 11 in the 6 yard box - that’s like pulling a pin out of grenade and dropping it down the front of your trousers!

Breezy again in the cup with anothercracker

Being left to rot “ABK we would like you to get some minutes with the U21s to get some fitness” ABK- “NO I don’t want to do that”.

Players who we didn’t get the best out of

Also Reading, where he was out of sorts - hence the loan, played silly buggers when a season with us showed his potential and got a bit greedy - the sort of thing that Cortese would have gone “sod you - we’ll shop elsewhere” - and then Reading did bugger all with him. As an aside - just read the thing in the Echo about the U21s 2-0 loss to Palace, towards the bottom it says that ABK has opted not to play with the Academy! I’d love a job like he’s got. -
Maybe a spell viewing from a box at St Mary’s up high might reveal the missing part of his jigsaw
-
any chance of a first half Nun -just for shits and giggles 😁
-
Probably a very nice team to play against after having to play in the Champions League midweek
-
No score yet - but Villa in the Champions League are once again very easy on the eye.

Worst ref performances involving Saints
John Boy Saint replied to warsash saint's topic in The Saints
I’m amazed Mark Clattenburg hasn’t been mentioned - he had the persona of an arrogant whatsit most of the time. One thing that sticks that he did against us versus Liverpool at SMS feeding the big club bias. One of ours upended one of theirs just outside their box, Clattenburg went for the whistle, then stopped and played the advantage, Liverpool were off down the pitch like Hares, ball into Mané and he misses, poking it out play, our goal kick. Whistle goes and Clattenburg is pulling the game back to where the offence took place and advantage signalled “to give them another go”! Those paying attention in the crowd weren’t happy. -

My first noted experience of watching dodgy Mike “old mother” Riley was at the Dell v Derby, weirdly on a few corners he stood just off the pitch at the goal line, which at the Dell put him pretty close to the crowd - guess that was part of his arrogance. Second half Benali is brought on - as we know Frannie rarely took prisoners - within minutes wipes one of theirs out: yellow card. Game rolls on. Derby had I think Dean Sturridge playing for them, who was a proper handful, yet again he’s scampering to our box and Frannie carts him up into the air, oh dear Mike Riley wants a word, as he beckons Francis towards him he is walking backwards away from the crime towards the East Stand, stops 15 feet away in front of the Derby fans and presents the Red card sending them wild: Sturrdge was still in bits on the pitch 30 yards away!! He certainly didn’t take up his weird position on corners in front of the Milton after that. When he took up the position of head of the PGMOL, you thought that says it all.
