Apologies for repeating just stuck this on the build up thread but guess it should have been here I'm still smirking........ Oh FFS why can we never hold onto a lead? What the hell is he doing with the team selection? He's not a Premier League Centre Half he just plays hoof ball, my mum could be more effective. He's useless, all that money for a superstar and he's a one trick pony who goes missing in games. :lol: Oh how nice it is to listen to Spuds supporting Son In Law watching his lot play live football...

Randomly that came up in conversation last night while looking for movies for the visiting kids to watch Kelly's Heroes. Will never ever tire of watching. Blazing Saddles. And, so annoyingly, of recent movies Battle Los Angeles : Invasion Earth. I mean why? Why that skanky Alien invasion movie & not Independence Day for example? And TV Series? Have watched the entire reboot of Dr Who from Chris Ecclestone uo to the end of the 1st Matt Smith series 4 times now....... And of course. Red Dwarf Kelly Saddles & Dwarf can be justified I suppose... But the others?

Saint Or Sinner Nicola Cortese Drives Southampton On
dubai_phil replied to Graffito's topic in The Saints
I'd like to comment on that but they won't let me -
Has anyone questioned whether we would see Stephens @ RB with Clyne at LB IF Shaw is out? At least Jack had some games in pre-season and has some experience from his days at Plymouth But would expect to start with Fox if no Shaw in all honesty & have the nippers on the bench

Saint Or Sinner Nicola Cortese Drives Southampton On

Well, Goddamn you MLT. We were bumbling along nice and quietly underneath the radar enjoying our football and having our own personal battles to express our own disgust in our own private world of Forums & local media and you came along and poured fuel on the fire, kept it going and kawoosh. Back to where we were with rupert and having a PR machine pumping out a new non-story about NC every 48 hours. Like all Saints fans was horrified at the way NA was discarded, reserved judgement on the reasons but can see a glimmer of why but REALLY? Couldn't it just have been left alone and let the results & performances speak for themselves? Oh no, suddenly we've got NC's name and plans being analysed every 48 hours in a different media format. I was HAPPY with him being shut away in his little world. Dear media STFU and go away until you have something to 1) Laugh at over the sheer stupidity of Stadium/Euro plans as we go down or 2) Applaud our vision as we sail into the group stages of the Europa League next year. I just want to go back to watching football and reading the reports like we have done for the last 3 years -
A wandering spirit passes by in the night to pass on some wise words. You've been missed

UNLESS you have already sold the plot of land that the club sits in for a 500% profit and believe that you can "persuade" a property developer (Robinson) to take an equal profit on an OPTION to buy a piece of land This is all about the money not the club. IF the land is worth 20 mil let the players take the PP's and tell them.... So long and thanks for all the fish

Hmm. Here is an interesting conundrum. The laws and rules of Football vs the laws & rules of Insolvency Practioners. Now. I wonder where I could find an experienced IP at this time of day on a Friday to see who would win in a court of law IF the Creditors approve one offer and the deal is given to someone else? Oh yes. Luckily I have one passed out in the spare bedroom after a Friday brunch with all you can drink Leffe & Hoegaarten. When he wakes up I'll see if I can get anything other than bleah out of him. If not will have to settle for leagl counsel from my daughter who luckily stuck to a couple of bottles of Chardonnay. And on that noteI'm off for a little snooze myself. Any typos blame the Belgians

True that. We all agree, who'd have thought we'd see the day that Chappers is better than Ronnie's

So, I left this place to it's own devices yesterday, had a nice day at Yas Island (Wow the water park looks weird - like a pile of scrap metal dumped by Wily Coyote as a trap for Road Runner (but seemed to be producing plenty of screams)) Anyways got back turned on the telly while waiting for American Idol to come on and watched the full Sports News section of Sky News. Not a whisper. Nothing. Nada. Nicht. Oh how far they have fallen, their brave new battle for survival failed to even make it past a report on next year's winter Olympics

A man was walking down the street when he was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless man who asked him for a couple of dollars for dinner. The man took out his wallet, extracted ten dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead of dinner?" "No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless man replied. "Will you spend this on green fees at a golf course instead of food?" the man asked. "Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless man. "I haven't played golf in 20 years!" "Well," said the man, "I'm not going to give you money. Instead, I'm going to take you home for a shower and a terrific dinner cooked by my wife." The homeless man was astounded. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that? The man replied, "That's okay. It's important for her to see what a man looks like after he has been forced to give up drinking and golf!"

He really has got that as wrong as anyone could get a wrong thing wrong

So honey, what are we doing tonight? we going to watch One Republic sing romantic songs in concert? Maybe a nice Candlelit dinner? Uh no. Thought we'd have a quiet night in on the Computer babe. You know there's a wedding to pay fooorrrrrrrroooooouch that farking hurt
-
I thought that Sky News said it needed 14 votes to be passed? Gold was reacting as if that had happened. Confused. But it's late, I played golf & have been rehydrating all evening
-
Godammit I was sure they were filming a Doctor Who episode round here somewhere
-
Oh Krap. Does this mean I now cannot wear my Original Rolex Polo shirt to games? Where do I leave my Tag on matchdays? Mind you with my local contacts maybe I can get them running off some Eterna rip off's for 20 quid and make a killing alongside Turkish & his Foam Fingerd
-
The Court case was about what PDT valued the Land at (as backed by PKF) Now there is a new "official" bid (but not recognised by the FL) it places the valuation in serious doubts WHICH was always going to be Chinny's Ace up the sleeve.
-
Gonna have to get Flybe some long range planes going into Poland IF we sign him up for next year Or get a bus link to Hurn Airport. The Polski's love him. Back in August meeting FMDP's family & friends it was Oh didn't Rasiak play for you? Now they watch our every game. Gonna have to order them all a load of 2013/14 shirts when we stay up & extend his contract
-
OK nutjobs. Are you ready for a mind numbing revelation? The last few months/years have NEVER been about saving pcfc. It has ALWAYS, (as so beautifully put all those years ago by Corpy) been about the LAND. My 50p worth is that the statement from the FL is music to the ears of the bidders from the East. They now don't have to fund a club next season and can worry only about how much profit they can make selling the plot to Tescos while letting Orville play at Moneyfields.

Just listened to the phone conversation on Sky. Don't get involved in UK Politics normally. But I have to say that Chris Huhne is by FAR the best advertisment I have ever seen for living under a Benevolent Dictatorship. To think that Democracy allows people like THAT to be a representative of the people? Dear Lord God bless the people that nailed the slime ball and may they offer a hope for the proper way to run a country
-
Ahhhhh Perhaps the best summary of the week. It cannot possibly keep getting worse for them can it?
-
So, just to be clear. Even while the PDT were getting all wet about their minibus load of fans going up to the High Court PKF were (finally) discussing another bid. All those meetings and plans and Penny in The Commons And they weren't looking over their shoulder. Now, where did I put that ORLY picture? Altogether now :lol::lol: I believe the phrase is We Told You So
-
They were involved in a bid just before we went into Admin. The buyer did not prove funds in an acceptable manner at the time and tried to make a late comeback. MJ did not have any involvement (in that project) & certainly did not threaten any legal action after the Pinnacle Exclusivity came to an end. HTH Oh and a buyer has emerged. Well that is a surprise. Think this is a good day to bugger off to Abu Dhabi & play golf (Just checking out the Yas Island facilities for future TSW vacationers)
