Seems like I am not the only Jags fan on this board then ! I was born in Glasgow but have never actually lived there, have had some great visits over the years although it's mainly funerals these days
-
x 1, Having supported the Saints for 40 years, I'll believe it when it has actually happened ! I'm loving it just now but still get nervy when we concede (even v Posh when we were all over them!). I know it's irrational but that's the way it is !!!!

TBF, I think Alpine was saying that HE had gone into 'smug mode' as he had predicted admin as being our best option, NOT that SympatheticSaint had made a smug post on the Cov website !
-
I could live with that as long as we don't appoint a quango (at our expense!) to work on the latter !
-
No I am not saying that grafitti is worse than (ie.) murder, what I am saying is that it is better not to seek to excuse such behaviour ! The recent 'zero tolerance' policy in New York proved that crimes like this could be vastly reduced with short sharp penalties rather than relying on (so called) 'social initiatives' ! Ps. I do realise that you have not condoned the crime and accept that you are entitled to your opinion but by saying "it isn't even that bad" (your precise words!) you don't exactly help your argument !
-
After comments like that, there is really no point in continuing the debate ! Sometimes I just despair for both the perpetrators and the apologists !!

Coming from the mob who used to idolise the Storrieteller (remember the chants "there's only one Peter Storrie"?) this could also be a sign of their legendary fine judgement !

http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/pompey-past/great-matches/modern_stadium_is_a_must_if_pompey_is_to_be_a_force_owners_1_3209015 I love the line " A lot of the fans had noticed that the clock had stopped working " That'll be the ones that can tell the time then ????

In any civilised society (whether it be the poorest of the poor or the richest of the rich!) respect for the dead is taken as the absolute minimum standard of human behaviour ! Given that the dead in this case fell for the benefit of future generations of British people, the crime becomes even more reprehensible ! Sadly some seek to defend the indefensible, which only perpetuates the problem ! If I suggested that he be made to walk around the city centre with a sandwich board stating " I defaced the war memorial " there would be a bl**dy outcry, but I can't think of a better way of him learning his lesson properly (cue left wing abuse!) !!

Being rude to door to door salesmen/those who ring up trying to sell stuff
eurosaint replied to dune's topic in The Lounge
I consider telephone 'cold calling' as an invasion of privacy and have used the BT (so called!) blocking service ! It is patently wrong that companies acquire your personal details and sell them on for profit (IMHO). I appreciate that people have to earn a living but the risk of scams is much higher by trading this way and also much of what they tell you is boll0x ! I once had a bird from Talktalk on the line extolling their virtues but even when I informed her that I would not use the company if they were the last one on planet Earth (I'd previously had a bad experience with them!) she kept on and on.... Basically I don't need it and get well p1ssed off when they interrupt my dinner etc ! Yes, I am an old f@rt, but I have no sympathy whatsoever for any of them now ! -
I think he fell asleep whilst reading your last couple of posts !! (Tbf, it could happen to anyone)
-
When translated I think you mean : "That's why I bought a season ticket next to the aisle, in order that I can stand half in and half out !" Is this correct ??
-
Now that really is 'taking the p1ss'
-
If you have ever played football you will realise that a teammate who is always available, never shirks a tackle, plays it simple, has a great engine, is always focused, always driven and leads by example is a great asset to have on the pitch ! He may not possess the lavish creativity of others but is essential to the make up of the total unit ! Dean Hammond comes into this category and I feel sure that the manager and the other players appreciate this too ! I also don't believe that he is captain for no reason ! All IMHO of course !
-
Let's not disturb the fluency of this legendary thread please ! When they start to be fair to the charities and creditors then maybe we'll think about it, but until then we reserve the right to expose and abuse ! It's only fair after all, eh

Would suit the Skates down to the ground then ! Overpaid, overhyped, injury prone prima donna, fits their profile perfectly !
-
It's bloody annoying to try and read your article with that flashing advert saying "congratulations, you are our millionth visitor" ! It's also a con so doesn't do much for your online kudos ! IMHO of course, no personal offence intended !

Even better : 2 Drayton in Singapore Friday, October 21, 2011 at 07:23 AM we need to have the new manager unveiled for Notts on Guy Fawkes Day, and then have a 2 week break to work with him, 12 points in the bank and be sitting 8th place ready for the push to 2nd place by Jan 2nd! Guess who they aspire to be below ??
-
From the stadium, Hooiveld !
-
Christ, even their Russky owner recognises that they hope some day to become a "proper club" !!
-
Are you suggesting that Baj is a Skate ?? Surely not
-
You should have watched the Skates v Barnsley, the first half was wretched !!!
-
Was pretty crap against us as well and for sure we don't need another LB, maybe he is more natural in the middle but personally I reckon that we could do better !!
