  1. Agree there, as even Mellis lost form after international duty.
  2. That's 3 you've helped people out with... ;-) Sadly I do remember us playing him at right back a lot. Waste of his talent IMO, what little he has...
  3. I missed 4, got the rest in 3 minutes. The one that I was most suprised at forgetting was D---- at right back, I should've remembered that more than missing M------- up front, especially as I'm playing CM2003-4 at the moment and he's on there...
  4. Apologies, I'm far too well-read. :-)
  5. I'm not striking anymore, they've stopped overtime now as LUL can't afford it, so the old scam that some employees used to do (go on strike but make the days pay back in overtime later in the year) can't be done. The next RMT strike on LUL will probably be about job security and the closure of ticket offices, although where I work in the booking office at Heathrow is ok, we've been told that it's the safest booking office in terms of being shut down as we get all the tourists first hand. Strikes don't always work anyway - the RMT wanted a par rise for us last year and balloted the members, but the RMT backed down and accepted what LUL was offering (for a change.) Turns out the next pay rise is bigger than what the RMT wanted because of inflation. While I'm a member, I do get sick with using strike action all the time. I do my utmost to give good customer service and give customers a better day, not just tourists but to make commuters proud to use the Tube, but it's all a waste when the strikes occur and staff are tarnished with the same brush. I might join TSSA anyway, they're a union just as good as the RMT but without the militant leader. Incidentally about the Network Rail strikes next week, my missus is knackered as she commutes from our house in Egham to Twickenham where she works, and will have no way to get in - they're running one train an hour (which will be packed), and they don't start until after she needs to be at work and finish before she needs to come home. So I'm dreadingly lending her my car for the week, and borrowing my sister's sh1tty Micra.
  6. My card kept getting declined last year, which was freaking me out as I had a substantial amount of money on my card. I rang HSBC, who told me what my last purchase was. I couldn't remember as it had been a while since I used it. They told me to go to the bank the following day. Worst night of my life that - within two seconds of speaking to the teller in HSBC, she told me my money was fine and that it was my card that was faulty. Scared the arse out of me. I read about these scams all the time though, my sister got done online. I'm more careful than that, I always look for the padlock before buying online (which I don't do much anyway), and I was always told to ignore bank emails that don't start with your name (i.e. Dear Customer...)
  7. The first time I got done for speeding I didn't tell the insurers. After 2 and a half years of ignorance (I thought they got told automatically) it slipped out whilst in conversation with them. They told me I was lucky I hadn't needed my insurance for the last 30 months, bumped up the cost, and charged me the extra for all the months I hadn't told them. Cost me a fortune. My stupidity, but it's still bloody lucky I had enough moolah to cover it.
  8. "First child born in Portsmouth for 93 years with ten fingers and ten toes.":o Mrs Slag, the childs mother, said " I carn't belief it, I neva fought I'd haf a son who is normall. My bruvva is totally gonna be well happy, innit." The child's father, Mr Slag, was unavailable for comment last night, as he was visiting his other sister in Hayling Island.
  9. I can't complain about the club at all this season. The feel factor is back and hopefully here to stay, I'm enjoying my drives to and from St Mary's (and Wembley), and with Norwich doing as well as they are, my homelife couldn't be better. Winning the play-offs this season (something I think is unachievable this season), and getting promoted with Norwich, could make me do something I wasn't planning on doing for a while. (She wishes...)

    It was a fantastic evening, not only because we won, but because I had my missus (Norwich fan) sat with me at the back of the Kingsland, smiling devilishly. She was most angry with me after penalties. :smt040
  11. Almost as bad a joke as suggesting that Johnstones Paint will be rewarding our trophy win by bringing out a red and white striped paint. (I hear it will be brought out in the style of a toothpaste tube that mixes the paint as it comes out...)
  12. It'd certainly take some doing. I can't believe the staff have never fooled around though, randy buggers.
  13. I got a speeding fine (3 points and £60 fine) on the very day I sent my license off to get the previous 3 points wiped off it. :-( I'd rather pay a bigger fine than have the points...
  14. Butler's available, but he'd cost a ****ing PACKET. I'm not sure whether he can play too many MATCHES though. Oops, got hit by the swear FILTER there.
  15. On SUnday at Wembley, I was suprised by the size of the place and thought you could easily go unnoticed. This is prompted by boredom but we've all heard of the mile high club, have any of you "christened" St Mary's Stadium? Go on, 'fess up. Or the Dell for that matter...:smt008 I'm looking forward to Easter Monday.:cool:8-[ (Mods you can do what you want with this, TMS or lock it.)
  16. I think Harding's already proved he can play right back. Fish at left back then. :-)
  17. To buy the burgers and console me on her breast after a Saints defeat, but that's about it. :-)
  18. What did it ever do to you? :smt107:D
  19. We should ask Johnstones Paint or the Football League or whoever owns it for the giant Saints flag the was dangling down under the inflatable balloons on the pitch. Thought that was impressive.
  20. They'd be more effective playing for the Royals.
  21. With Cashley injured and Bridge ruling himself out, they should give Harding a look! ;-)

    Sometimes I get the feeling he doesn't even know we're in League One! Serie A to Premiership is usually the norm. He's great, turning into a real cult hero. Despite the lack of starts this season, I'd snap him up given the chance.
  23. I'll be there. I was going on my tod until I realised it was a 3pm kick off and not a 7:45 kick off. (I'm a doughnut.) So bought another for the other half. She can drive down, she doesn't know it yet, but I'm fed up of staying sober for Saints games due to driving.
  24. I have you know I've sung all over the world, including the Sydney Opera House twice. (and that's a rather embarrassing FACT, although it was when I was between the ages of 9 and 14.)
  25. It's not even worth thinking about the other teams until closer to the end of the season. Saints must win all their games, that's all they should be fixated on. The loss of form of the other clubs is dealt with by fate.
