This is Saints.....never too much problem to make it uncomfortable for ourselves !
-
Anyone catch Rod Liddle's article in the Sunday Times yesterday...sums up old potato head and the state of our football perfectly. here's a couple of taster paragraphs : 'The Rooney saga is British Football's problem in a microcosm, a drama about greed and a quite remarkable delusion - the notion that thare is anything in our national sport, at it's top level, that has a greater pull than pure, raw money'. 'this is the reality of thr premier league, and you kid yourself if you think it is anything different. It is perhaps why the England team fail to achieve when push comes to shove, too. The extraordinary sums of cash in the game have stripped from its top participants any vestige of commitment, loyalty and indeed responsibility. When you can be awarded £41.6m for being utterly useless for six months, there is no great incentive to be less useless in the future. You pick up your enormous pay packet, shrug off the criticisms and head of to the nearest nightclub, bar or brothel for a spot of roasting. You are inured to criticism because everyone tells you how brilliant you are, you are paid so much monry that you must be brilliant' I could go on but the article is absolutely spot on. 'fans kid themselves that the team for whom they are cheering are something more than a group of briefly hired mercenaries who owe allegiance to nothing whatsover other than their agents and their bank balances' Get hold of a copy if you can.

yeah, one of them was me.....i stopped twice for a P*S. Didn't half improve the environment. I don't normally stop on runs (although i had to in the London marathon this year) but yesterday I couldn't resist it.....
-
no, Punch is wrong, we are right. took him off and we were a different team. PS Thanks Kelvin !
-
bit worried about this one. Dickov has them playing better. Hopefully things will turn out OK ! Can't call it.

Yeah, I am listening as well, don't normally but found myself doing it today and ironic that Christian O'Connell is standing in for Danny Baker, O'Connell being a huge Saints fan and his dad still goes apparently as a STH. I remember to this day when we signed KK. Was at school and it broke at lunch time. No work done in the school for the rest of the day, teachers included !

You're quite right, relegation to the Wessex League would give us a few more years of pi** take

http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/8446264.Police_seek_witnesses_________after_violence_on_train/ looks like we are unpopular again.

yes, but the 19,0000 who did come and watch the mighty Tranmere make up for nearly 4 (yes FOUR) times your average gate !!!! Ho Ho, you fool. Go back to your care home.
-
Interesting to see attendance tomorrow. Anything around 20 - 21K would be good if you ask me
-
It works for me...ST mate is getting my tickets for me for Tranmere and Daggers, both games I was not going to go to until this offer.

Lambert only available striker for Saturday...
RedWillie replied to Ivan Katalinic's 'tache's topic in The Saints
I think you'll find it is more than a scratch... a whole lot more. You don't have surgery or get sutured for a scratch. If he's been rebailed perhaps the old bill still couldn't interview him due to his injury.? -
unless of course his hand injury was more serious than warrants a cop sat with him for ages......

Rumours of Saints player being arrested after trouble?
RedWillie replied to Tractor_Saint's topic in The Saints
unfortunately chaps, be prepared to be dissapointed with one of our players over the next couple of days.... -
My money's on Barny out injured next week.....wait and see..... MOTD 2 for me good night
-
they will, they will.....
-
How bad is Connolly's injury? trust me, were going to be a striker short over the coming weeks......
-
kicked off in Totton.....tell me more. Was the last ready meal gone in Asda's or something???
-
Very enjoyable game... outplayed them and bossed it. Nice to see us passing out of defence. Agree with most others and the fact that Lambert is so out of sorts we could do with another striker at this rate, especially as we played last 10 with no striker (unless Goolie is one but i thought he was a midfielder...but he is a big lad ! Good crowd.Let the good times role......
-
Coterill's carrot crunchers lose again...
-
looks like the five year plan is still on then.........league 1, league 1, league 1, Championship, premiership......Dream on. Puncheon sounded utter tripe tonight, mind you so did the rest.
-
Lucky git, I've got to go !
-
we are an embarassment, the club is nothng short of a laughing stock to everyone else. As gus Poyet said he would not take a salary if he coldn't get a squad like ours promoted. The players are going throught he motions. I've had enough and won't be buying another ticket until this shambles is sorted out....(So 'i'll probably be there next week watching us fail to beat Colchester). I don't care if they bring in Elvis to manage us just get someone permanent to sort these idiots out.

My nan thinks Phil brown looks nice...does this effect anything?
