OK so in more detail. They came on 30 minutes late, by which time to be fair there was still less than 1,000 people at the gig - REALLY bad promotional work there had been little Media coverage compared to the likes of Bieber. On the plus side that meant there WAS plenty of room to dancec (and once EoA got going with the hands in the air it was needed Warm up was by @The Step On DJ's - basically Mark Berry their "dancer" plus someone else hiding in the shadows. Strangely a great turn out by Dubai Saints with 5 of us there - consensus was that we were all expecting them to be pretty crap, but in fact they came out and played a really tight set. S Superb vocals balance between Rowetta & Shaun and the band was really tight. If I am honest from about the 3rd note of the first song, shoulders in the crowd started to wobble and by the time they got to Step On it was just a bonkers Dad Dancing Rave. Yet both my sons were there (24 & 25 respectively) and by the end even they were bouncing around the stadium. They managed to last an hour, and gave it their all, which considering they must have been a tad disappointed in the turn out was well professional. The verdict? This was what I had hoped the Noel Gallagher & Stone Roses gigs would have been like, a number of warm fuzzy feelings as long forgotten tracks and a couple of classics got aired. I thought we'd sing and dance to Noel & Ian, we did for maybe one song. In the Madchester revival/still going war, the Mondays won hands down. They may not be as trendy or hip, but I have to say they put on a Bloody great night. Next up avoid Bieber, try and blag Guetta freebies, and then Florence & Keane with Eric for my last Dubai gig as a single guy!

Ooh an election. So where are their manifesto's, we need speeches, door to door canvassing. What do they stand for? Is TSW sexist? why no female candidates for Mod of the year?

Right. We never turned up for the game until we were behind. They could have had 3 in the first 4 minutes - total mindset screw up. Lallana - shocking, did he even complete ONE pass over 4 yards? Sorry, but the last few games he has seemed to be a weakness. SRL. No, he did NOT have a bad game, WBA had great tactics backed up by an inexperienced Ref. Every TELEGRAPHED long ball into SRL he had 2 WBA players on him, one holding his shirt the other out jumping him. Could totally understand MP's "tactical" decision to replace Cork with Ramirez, he was expecting WBA to sit back and catch us on the break so made sense to bring on an attacking MF. Could have worked IF Lallana wasn't having a mare and Gaston had not had a brain fart. IMHO we would not have lost if Cork had stayed on and Adam had gone off at HT, so first error for MP there. Although was really hacked off with that performance I did leave the pub chirpier having watched Frenchcastle get slaughtered. We were bad but thank fook we aren't Geordies tonight. Can't see us getting points at Spuds or a resurgent Sunderland. Still think there are enough teams below us to also have bad runs BUT complacency hurt us today, let us hope it changes the mindset around the Management & the Recruitment Team before the summer. Work to do -

Not only do we dress better (thanks to our Style guru), we also appear to be far more eloquent than other PL fans.

Al Ahlia or Al Wasl away would be nice

Yup they could bring in a Vision Coach, a Kicking Coach. I'm still sure I've read much of that stuff before somewhere.

I assume that you have written off the chances of Isaac Nehemie then. He'll be most upset

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/saints-second-chance-programme-790009.aspx So we will trawl the Country for youngsters kicked out of Academies and give them a second chance in their late teens to catch late developers. Interesting. Someone must have reviewed how kids of that age are handled by their clubs. Wonder where that idea originally came from? Joking aside looks a great idea and a good programme

Wellllllllllll..... He has a point. Why should (for example a woman) be penalised by Christian Religion and Law in certain countries because she had the misfortune in life to fall in love with a man who made a mistake in his life by marrying very young and is subsequently divorced? A Catholic girl is Excommunicated which then brings issues relating to her status as a God Parent in her country (let alone unable to Wed in a Church in her country) Laws are being passed that allows same sex marriages (in a Church) but "Proper" old fashioned marriages are discriminated against. Me I don't give a damn about Gay Marriage or Marrying in a Council Office, but it IS bloody unfair on a Woman who may have dreamt of a Church Wedding since she was a toddler. Everyone equal or none equal. This is just a bandwagon vote winner and it is all the more Bull**** for that. Rant over

Of course it would not be at all funny if TB had actually gone and paid that off before the sale went through and the boys woke up from their 13k hangover to find a debatable black hole because of that (or something else) No siree it would not be funny at all, oh how the media would wail.
