In the same way Obama did not act alone to make him retired. There will be many others in the cells and many in the Clerical ranks that CDAJFT. The difference with OBL was his background upbringing education and wealth that as much as anything gave him the stature amongst the young & impressionable. There will be other nutters, there may even be others who are as intelligent as he was or have the education to work things out, but the throw away billions to live in a cave and fight against the infidels will have taken a heavy kicking today. Already many comments pages in the press etc have the nutters and apologists on there denying he would have lived in such luxury when he wanted everyone to live in mud huts (or words to that effect)

Interesting seems quite a few press articles linking them to CSI have disappeared. Surely it all couldn't have been a ruse to get Mitchell to agree a better deal? Oooh how funny would that be - the skates being buttfecked for a few quid off a deal with a smalltown club

So the Dubai Massive will be gathering. We can't take this on our own! The OSH is being packed in Bubble Wrap for the journey from Media City to Chateau D_P. The hugely successful Tsing Tao (from Saturday) is in the Fridge chilling and The munchies are booked and the GF's Computer is being booted up to give EoA the ability to post on the crashing forum. In Nige we trust. (And an unbiased referee) Oh and to add my bit, yep, agreed with Alp's comment on the mathematicals post

dubai_phil replied to alpine_saint's topic in The Saints
Tonight while it will be fantastic as ever to share the emotions on here, I actually wouldn't give a damn IF this doesn't work.... As LONG as fecking SaintsPlayer works!!! -
He is correct. In that it will be an interesting summer As we build a team for Auto promotion

Soggy, there will be forever a zillion conspiracy theories, but one thing is for sure, "this fella" was involved, you only had to do business with the "Family Businesses" that pervade every part of this region to know There will be more to come on this, the Yanks will not have missed this chance with a quick Grassy Knoll Photoshop. For one thing, anyone looked at a map lately? "Body was taken to Afghanistan" "they asked the Saudi's" then look at how many beaches there are around Kabul. It'll be wikileaked in full HD from start to finish at just the right moment Politically

So on the subject of almighty rows... He spends time living in the equivalent of Aldershot, 150 yards from a massive Military institution in a Country paranoid about it's military security. The CIA can spy on the villa from August onwards without anyone noticing. And yet, The Yanks can fly 4 choppers into the centre of the equivalent of Aldershot and have a 40 minute firefight. Either the head of Air Defence or the Military Base has got one heck of a lot of explaining to do today. Oh and FWIW I've also been through the town back in the days

Good shout Hammie - halfway there

The joys of Time Zones The big day is here and up early worried already by our not having won more than 4 League games in a row all season record! Oh and we are not "technically" promoted today as some have pointed out if both us and Udders win. That magical phrase Mathematical Probability drifts into use, followed by the more Pedantic "To all intents and purposes, Saints will be promoted today" But yes as far as I'm concerned I'll leap around like a loon if it happens.

Again, one thing that often gets overlooked when us Wrinklies get all dewy eyed about these memories was the fact that "We did not stand a chance". An upper half Division TWO side (in those days) playing the mighty Manure. Pundits had us down to lose 5-0. Some said we should not turn up we would just embarrass ourselves and all sorts of digs about us being given too manytickets compared to the zillion ManUre fans who were more worthy of going to the game. I think it was Jack Charlton with the 5-0 prediction, and, as I recall only one pundit got the score right - the much (later) reviled Don Revie. We were outclassed position for position on the pitch. We were outnumbered 3 to 1 in the ground and yet we better than matched them on the pitch and Boy, did we outsing them. Nobody who was there that day will ever forget that spine tingling from the heart roar of YELLOW YELLOW YELLOW YELLOW or the astonishing moments AFTER that ball had gone in the back of the net. That still remains the longest 7 minutes of my life.

Mate told me about it, I did the googling and was like - hang on who the hell is THAT and a "isn't that" whathisface. Absolute Gem whether you like their music or not & how fat is Jack Black these days!

She couldn't have afforded the airfare even IF she had been invited.

Dressed by Lady Gaga Mrs Bercrow's dress got a memorable mention as well. Not just by us but also by Harper's Bazaar chick

Pardew's time was up before the end of last season, unless you have a totally selective memory. It makes not one iota of difference how many times anyone says what if. The FACT is that AP as a Manager was unable to manage his boss - NC and fell out with him, either over time or with a row. You may as well spend the next 3 seasons saying that NC should have been sacked in order to let AP stay on. Any manager who is performing well MUSt keep his boss on side otherwise there will be no trust so when the Manager asks his boss to "Back him in the transger market" - nada AP may be better than Fergie & Jose combined, however he FAILED with that basic tenet of any employment position. Perhaps he simply could not stand NC however that matters not, NC paid his salary. That breakdown happened LAST season. The FAULT lies in not sacking him before close season OR with AP for getting into that position in the first place. AP was never going to get NC fired only an idiot picks fights he has little or no chance of winning

Hmm just running down our results in the Prediction League table I notice.... The most consecutive wins in the League this season is 4 We've just won 4 in a row. I'd be really worried Except for the fact that we actually had a 5 win sequence if we include an FA Cup game... Phew I think
-
I don't. In fact since 1999 I have steadfastly refused to even switch the radio on in my car in case some muppet plays it. When I went out & it got played it ruined my night & I went home to sulk and spend hours in self hypnosis trying to think calming thoughts In fact, now I have become a going out phobic simply because of Cornerstone (Thanks Scotty - think you are great on American Idol BTW, but FFS stop with that Mike holding sh1t)

The Northam Have sat in Chapel, Kingsland & Itchen. Have sat in a Corporate Box (very nice thanks Stu no not SRS) And yes, have even sat in the Managers chair Home & Away OK the last two weren't Saints games but were serious enuff! I know Oldnick has sat in the Itchen (After being sent off!)

Probably had the same problem that I did during the match... His Taxi turned up early

Your help needed (Markus Liebherr Tribute) - DONATIONS SITE NOW LIVE
dubai_phil replied to JustMike's topic in The Saints
Mike Depending on the plans after the tribute, it may be an idea to leverage MLT if he really Tweeted you to see if he (and his pals) could start off a huge Autograph the flag (and print their name below) campaign. Getting legends who played for or against us or are fans/respect what Markus did for us to sign it and eventually auctioning it with maybe half the proceeds going to The Saints Foundation and the rest towards a memorial Garden or Staue would be awesome and add great value with little work In reality, enough "Celebs" Pass through SMS during a season but I would bet something more could be done to take it on to a long term level Will get my donation in next week. Great job Dude and early candidate for Fan of the Year -
Look, The Fashion Peeps on Sky went on and on about how "difficult that dress would have been to wear" and how Pippa had to be perfect to wear it. Our household has agreed that D_P would (in the stupendously unlikely chance he could) be very bad with her, AND at the same time had agreement from the GF & Daughter that in fact 1) They would not give me any reaction other than total respect 2) Would probably put My Dad/BF gave Pippa a good time as their FB status and 3) Actually, without in any way being that way inclined would like to borrow her for half an hour after I had finished.... there is of course a Reality "But". And yes, while wearing THAT dress and holding her Deportment so well through the wedding, the REAL truth is that, let's face it guys, after most of us on here had finished having our evil way with her we would have had to send out to the local Supermarket for a roll of Duct Tape to put her back together again. In THAT dress - stunning. But underneath - no doubt - WAY too boney (no leave that Joke out chaps) In reality - guys - you know the real truth - she's only EVER gonna get BIGGER after that and that ain't EVER good in a Woman long term

Brentford 0 - 3 Saints - Post Match Reaction
dubai_phil replied to Saint_clark's topic in The Saints
And of course the REALLY good news is that Playmuff have to beat us so they cannot simply park the bus and hope for a draw. That will do nicely, although Reidy is a crafty old sod and may still try that with the break out play. -
Great job to all who went today. Your support is ****** **** came across loud and clear on the radio amongst others
