No,no, definitely a Skate

He had a sad life old Jocky, couldn't really take the limelight and eventually became a recluse ! A bit of a forerunner to Susan Boyle except that she had a much more dedicated support system ! RIP Jocky.

TBF, he has got an international cap for Cyprus !! Nb. sorry, meant to attach a quote re. this Williams guy !

Boring Thursday on Saintsweb, eh ? Maybe the Skates will ship out a couple of loans just to brighten things up ?

They really do miss this guy, ticketing allocations seemed much more logical in his day and when there was a problem it was sorted in an efficient and pleasant way ! Much as I understand the push to maximise crowds, it can get very complicated when you 'twin' matches, restrict availability etc.. which appears to happen more and more nowadays !!

Still don't understand why people are 'unimpressed' without having seen him play but are willing to change their opinion once they have !! Not to worry though, at least he's turned out to be a diamond !

What ? Rickie in goal and Kelvin up front ? Have you been on the jungle juice ?

What does that mean then ?

Looking back, there were many posters on here who wrote him off before he even kicked a ball because he wasn't a first team regular and played in a sh#tty league ! I really hope that in future our signings are given positive support from the start and allowed to prove themselves on the pitch rather than being prejudged by their history ! I love his relaxed, positive attitude - it confirms to me that the spirit is strong within the camp and bodes well for the run in !!! COYS

Great result though, you must be proud that a south coast team is 5 points clear at the top of league surely ???

The reason we bought him is clear ! There were strong demands from the wrist slitters on Saintsweb and Nicola felt obliged to take action ! Simples !!

My late father-in-law used to go on about that season all the time ! It has sort of kept my feet on the ground since then, but somehow I don't think that history is about to repeat itself !! COYS

http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/309264/309264 Have got a funny feeling that our ex star midfielder might just end up playing against us on the 7th ! Hope I'm wrong mind !

Come on Wurzel, you can get him !

Looks like you got the last word in Wurzel

I see that the 'Beastie Boys' have hijacked yet another thread ! Having been away, I just read about Nick Harvey and checked on here to see how he was. All I discovered was that Turkish and Alpine are still into online provocation and antagonism , very sad but no surprise ! Ah well, hope that Nick Harvey is having the stitches out soon !!

I just heard that a bunch of tasty Brazilian birds will be at the Donny match on Sat ! As organisers of the overseas Guly fan club I expect that their presence will be offensive to some ! Please note that they may be holding up banners which could overstretch their skimpy tee shirts and that 'wardrobe malfunctions' may occur ! I beg you all to treat these 'tourist supporters' in the same way as you treat the Japanese followers of Tadanari Lee !

Relieved to see a strong defence of this programme by most posters as it is my favourite Saturday alternative to being at a Saints match ! Characters like Merson and kamara are clearly part of the formula and it works ! Sometimes (mainly midweek !) you get the likes of Tony Cottee, Scott Minto, John Salako, Gordon McQueen and it's just not the same ! TBF, Jeff Stelling is the key player as he is both professional and highly amusing, allowing the panel to be themselves and not take it all too seriously !

Still a 'funny old league' where anybody can beat anybody ! We will lose and draw a few matches coming up, but so will WHU and the Royals, I reckon that it will go to the wire and our goal difference might just prove to be vital ! Exciting times, eh ?? COYS.

Today, relaxed by pool reading book, dinner tonight at top restaurant ! Saturday, lie in, quick dip, nice lunch at local eatery, follow Saints online then barbie at home (by the lake!) with friends! Sunday, watch Cape Argus cycle race from mountain vantage point overlooking bay (with a few beers!) followed by sundowners at wine farm ! Sunny and hot but coping as best as I can under the circumstances! Back in 10 days to cheer Saints on to promotion ! Greetings from Cape Town !

63, Born in Scotland, married a Southampton girl and went to the Dell in 1971 with her dad who was a lifelong Saint ! Reckon that we beat Chelsea 3-1 in my first match but could be wrong! Brainwashed my 3 kids and have had season tickets for 30 odd years even whilst living in Belgium! Retired at 58 and now live on the IoW although I try to avoid the worst of the winter by spending time in Cape Town where I am at the moment (only downside is that I miss 5/6 home games each year!).

In Cape Town with a lousy connection on an IPad (which I'm not used to!) and only followed the match on here ! Was depressed throughout but clung on to the scoreline for my sanity ! Am now poised with a fine Merlot to celebrate ! Need to maximize the advantage now with 2 home games coming up ! COYS.

I suspect the leccy company will be doing that for them soon anyway (forever!)

A Plea ? Can you lot please slow down a bit on this thread ? I have a 12 hour flight tomorrow and will be away from a computer for almost 24 hours, even when I get the chance to catch up I'm going to be tight for time ! The good news is that I'll be sunning myself (glass of wine in hand!) as the Skates wriggle and squirm over the weekend through Monday ! Happy days

I've heard that this guy is really good with contracts, if you mail him perhaps he can help ?? tal_ben_haim@skatefc.com
