Hmm another Discuss thread I think
-
The Boys were on Da Beach tonight promotion Party time Travis - Sing a long gold Japenese Popstars - Why? Trichny Snyder? WTF I mean why? Zane Lowe - Oh man he took us WAY beyond dancing like Dads. We got da hands in da air like we don't care = AWESOME FatBoy Slim. Oh yes. I don't EVER want to listen to his stuff on the radio (or Album) but tonight? Dude that was freaking AWESOME I think Eric MAy have a head ache tomorrow. Me? Where am I? All I remember was singing Saints songs on the Bus home

IMHO the FIRST DEFENSIVE priority is to find a CB BETTER than Jose AND Jos. Good as they are we still need better there. The FIRST signing priority though HAS to be a proper RM who could also play LM if Adam is out for any time The SECOND priority is to fnd a CM who is BETTER than Morgan ad Cork the THIRD priority has to be finding that CB The FOURTH priority has to be finding a 4th striker (or do we expect DC LB & Guly to be the answer in the PL?) THEN we probably need a new RB Which, IMHO, puts the LB slot pretty far down the list, and I am happy to have Fox starting there next season Our SQUAD in the PL will be better than the last time we were there (hell I'd far rather have Butterfield at RB than Telfer!), BUT we need to bring the right quality with the right Mind Set and of course PACE

Your assumption is that they will present FACTS about their financial position to the FL meeting on June 2nd. Not so sure their track record in that area is so reliable (Storrie at Southwark Crown Court springs to mind, how they were not trading insolvently and all that) So no problemo

Oh where to start? FMDP found it this morning and it's been a series of WTF's ever since. I mean where to start? Obviously the Poles are avid readers of Matchday threads..... They have singing Nuns??? Damn, why did WE never think of that Or Granny Rock Rules It's a hell of an improvement on John Barnes rapping (ROFLCOPTERS) FMDP's gone off to hang her head in shame and see if she can change her passport before June Perhaps Woy could get the Wurzels to record our Euro song A translation follows when I find time to stop laughing and find a break in taking the p1ss

What fills the void for you in the summer months?
dubai_phil replied to Orange's topic in The Saints
primary task - enter as many competitions as possible to win trips to or free drinks in pubs here during the Euros. 8 done so far Summer Arrgghh. You lot have No idea... No football = BAD. Outside temperature mid to high 40's and humidity into Sauna levels. Only place to go in the day time is Mall walking = Worse. So will be hoping some idiots haven't (again) sold the TV rights to the cricket to some obscure Indian company that don't even transmit here. Oh and two weddings (Daughter & future Brother in Law) and two weeks arsing around at the Consulate in Krakow to get all my paperwork sorted for my wedding next year -
To be fair it was a Retweet by the official SaintsfanZone..... (Oooh I've been waiting ages for my turn to say this) Make of that what you will.

Just a point, as it is Gatwick, what about the Train? Guess it depends where you are based but I actually had to use the train last summer from the Airport to near Portsmouth and booking online it was surprisingly cheap and frequent

OK my view is that Fox has improved as the season has gone on. Certainly he can be caught out of position (agree with the comments about the Lallana cover in front of him). Certainly he can stand off too much and that has cost us gaols. But on the positive side his delivery from corners has been a game changer, I have no idea on the stats but it seems to me we have scored far more goals from corners this year than our previous stay in the Championship. The variation with his fizzed balls and Lallana's corners cause defences all sorts of problems. I seriously doubt he will be off to Spuds, yep it was on Twitter after all, BUT like Guly, I think he is better than many believe and LB is certainly a position where we will not have to strengthen during the summer until AFTER we have filled the priority areas (especially with Luke Shaw possibly stepping up to the bench next season) And anyway we still have Dickson in reserve to come back in from loan....

It's NOT him, it is fake. Jordan Sibley told everyone couple of days ago

It's only been in the public domain for about a year so must be a huge shock

So Mr Husband. What an utter pile of garbage. Stop with the trying to be balanced and say what REALLY happened. Admin #1 approx 120million IN DEBT Admin #2 approx 50million IN DEBT That is 170 Million in 7 years. You idiots STOLE just short of 25 MILLION POUNDS A YEAR from Local Business, The Government, The Employees is a VAIN attempt to stay above us? And you know what? The only people we did not pay back IMMEDIATELY were Aviva, but hell after the Shareholder Vote today we don't even feel bad about THAT. (Not withstanding the fact that we actually VOLUNTARILY gave them a nice Promotion bonus of around 4 mil recently) 24.25 Million a year just to TRY and stay ahead of us. And it has ruined the reputation of your club and City for a generation. Well done. WTFILN

There'll be Shwarma stands and LOTS of beer on sale. Oh you don't mean tomorrow do you? Don't worry Eric, nothing can possibly go wrong. Just don't dance like a Dad to FatBoy, you'll do your Hip/Back/neck/Knees in.

About ONE day to the Dxb Saints Promotion Party. Right now THAT is WAY more important!

Define "Free Transfer". If it is a top level out of contract PL player then they would be expecting the "value they would be sold for" to be included in their wages. Which would wreck the harmony and equality in the squad (which WILL be crucial to us next season) If it is an unknown or someone being released by a club with financial problems and they are within the wage structure then there is no problem. In the PL as in life, statements about the size of your **** are irrelevant. Normally people who have large Dicks don't need to shout about it, so who needs big transfer fees? It's all about the results not the talking about it/showing off. I think we are all pretty happy with our last free transfer and would take a whole bunch more like him (Lee)

I've spent the morning up to my neck in Legal Papers, documents and contracts. Thank fook for that interview, it was Sooooooooooooo much clearer.

The daft thing is that the whole story sounds so weird (Sad as well, but weird) I mean it really doesn't seem like a "professional" job. It sounds like a really amateur attempt at a cover up - as if the perps had never seen an episode of CSI. A few random dodgy mags scattered around and then locked in a bag? Jeez if it WAS our "boys" then it was such a poor job that it shakes any faith in them. It's almost like a double bluff, done by someone to make our boys look like amateurs. Or, maybe, with all these elf & safety rules, that's the way 007 has to work these days. Just very weird from top to bottom

Summer 2012 HCDAJFU Thread - Premier League Special Edition
dubai_phil replied to Jimmy_D's topic in The Saints
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysuQdnA2X_Y&feature=youtu.be yeah that'll do (wait for the replay peeps wait for it) Clearly if that was KD then some of ours would be demanding a new keeper. In which case as Chelsea will obviously get rid of Cech now HCDAJFU warming the bench -
Second goal on Saturday. It was then that I knew we were up. And a little tear or 5 welled up as I joined the screaming mayhem. Oh we've had better screaming moments (Millwall away for eg) but that on Saturday when I just knew that we were up and the remaining hour and a bit could be what I came back for PARTY TIME!
-
Ah yes an Iron. I remember those, I think the Maid reminds me I need a new one about every 5 years.

On my trip back for the Cov game I managed to find something very special at HMV in Duty Free at LHR. Frozen Planet. I said it at the time (reading the reviews) you lucky lucky bstds being able to watch stuff of THAT quality. Immense (Oh and how did that guy in Freeze frame at the end of Ep 1 NOT crap his pants when the Orcas came to say hello?)

Mark fry and begbies traynor in the echo tonight
dubai_phil replied to lordswoodsaints's topic in The Saints
He even has(d) a box there. -
Dear Lord. Keep this up and someone will start a thread saying Titus Bramble is the best signing we could make . He is AWFUL. He does NOT fit the template we have for hungry players who want to go on a Journey with the TEAM. Look. I am all for bringing in experience but there are certain players in the PL who make you wonder what planet most of the scouts & managers live on. Jeez, I'd rather let Jaidi have a run out "as a squad player" FFS
