The Kraken

The bloke that I know that has just done this said that he didn’t need to do that, he just emailed it to the kindle address. He got an email from Amazon asking him to confirm, then when he did that it showed up in his managed content list as a document. Then just move to kindle via Amazon’s Manage my Content. So he said.

I’m done up to step 5, not sure what is meant by “your Amazon email address”? Or how I find it…. edit: done it, thanks!

I could’ve done, yes. I chose not to, given who made the post.

The week NJ joined he gave the players a week off so he could work on tactics, he didn’t start training with the players until at least 10 days after taking the job.

Seriously, this rain can just fuck off. It seems like it’s being continually raining for over a month. I mean, it’s better than the summer when we had housing estates spontaneously bursting into flames, but I feel like to we need to find a happy medium.

Newcastle aren’t really a benchmark. Their positioning of away fans at St James Park goes against the Premier league rules that were brought in around 5-6 years ago which stipulates that away fans must be positioned pitchside. Newcastle are the only ones that don’t comply, they have an exemption due to “safety reasons” (basically keeping supporters segregated on entry/exit).

Good to see he already owns a warm coat.

U wot m8? Did you not see our unique, innovative and frankly amazing light show before the Forest game? It was inspiring and put us right on the map. The Chapel kop was effervescent all night after that, especially after the OWTS funeral march pre-game.

All of those 3 listed should be thanking their lucky stars that they are on premier league wages and that they are in some form of spotlight. If they are agitating for a move they need a heavy dose of realism. Djenepo just got given a massive contract extension FFS. Particularly for him and Elmo, we’d be lucky to get a club who would willingly take them on at the wages we’ve given them. Bang average overpaid muck.

Can’t see us not signing a striker. But then I thought that in summer. I think SR are rolling the dice and I reckon we’ll get what Jones says they’re trying for, 3-4 in the window.

Forster hasn’t got better with hindsight, it’s just realism to accept that he’s better than McCarthy and he’s probably better than Bazunu. Like losing Romeu, the problem wasn’t getting rid of Forster, it was replacing him with someone who currently isn’t as good as him. We needed to improve the GK position (and get Forster’s enormous wages off the books), we seem to have worsened the position in the short term.

I saw this earlier, it’s incredible. I mean, it’s just such a terrible photoshop as well, look at it, what is the rocket supposed to be resting on?! Schapps is now desperately trying to claim he knew nothing about it then pulled it when he found out.

Started at Bashley too. Although technically Bournemouth start with AFC……

I get the feeling the, if we did that, we’d get stripes more often than not. It seems to me to be a vocal minority on here that prefer a variance from stripes, when there’s actual polls been done on here stripes do seem to be quite popular. Personally, I’d like to see a variation of all we’ve had before (and more) on a sort of informal rota. Stripes one year, halves the next, rank xerox, sash, add quarters in the mix and maybe even a solid red shirt that is not as shit as the Cortese kits and the dreadful centenary shirt.

That kit was very nice but we barely saw it all season, the club insisted it would only be worn when none of the shirt, shorts and socks clashed with the other side, and Saints wouldn’t change shorts/socks colour to suit. As it was, due to it almost neve being used, we made it our FA Cup home shirt. Then went out at the firs time of trying.

A young forward with 2 goals in 54 appearances his club, sounds right up our street.

Which failed as the obsessed Pompey contingent all spotted it and voted for the worst one, some Monaco inspired abomination iirc.

Yeah, I think the Hummel designers released a video shortly after taking on our contract where they talked about their options with Saints, and made reference to the previous kit(s) they had under us including that one.

That would absolutely be my favourite ever I reckon, and a nod to very early kit history.

Do we?! 😉 Im not a massive fan of our current home kit but I very much like a variation from stripes quite often. People go on about ‘tradition’ but I just point to Barcelona. You can’t get much bigger a club side than them yet they’re not remembered for only wearing stripes, they’ve had a massive amount of variation on blue and red/maroon in the past 20-30 years. My favourite 3 Saints kits have been the original Rank Xerox kit, the Denmark Hummel, and the Hummel stripes. Quite enjoy a deviation from stripes more than often. Our away kits this year are bloody terrible though imo. Happy for yellow and blue there.

‘Traditional’ 4, 5 and 6 has many variations and does my OCD no good at all! For me in traditional numbers it’s 5 and 6 as centre backs, 4 the holding midfielder. But there’s been plenty of exceptions to that especially non UK where 4 was often used as a CB, I seem to recall Roy Keane was a 6 in proper shirt numbers at Forest. I also seem to remember Ray Wilkins playing as a 5 at some points, and Kevin Ratcliffe always had 4 as CB at Everton. Ronald Koeman was a 4 for years. And of course Ralph always referred to Romeu as the 6.

Got ya. Yeah, we went for it at that point, but quite frankly we bloody had to, 0-1 down and nothing lose by conceding another.

How were we playing 2 at the back when we had 3 centre backs on the pitch until minute 85? I was watching the game and I don’t recall one of our CBs going up front, what am I missing here? Lyanco went off on 85 but that wasn’t the plan, Elmo was in line to get subbed (it got announced on the tannoy) then Lyanco limped off instead.

There’s a few Spanish speakers at the club, I’m sure I read Nathan Jones speaks Spanish, he certainly played there in his career. Ruben Selles and Juan Larios obviously, and Lyanco will be able to converse. And big Willy as mentioned, perhaps others too.
