Exactly. No matter how good this new bloke might be he doesn't know any of our players or anything about Premier League football. Staying up needed a very steady hand on the tiller and now is absolutely not the time to be risking any hiccups.

Yup.

Surely NC can't be that stupid, can he? What a pillock. There's only one way for us to go now and that's downwards. Halfway through the transfer window? What the **** is he on?

I was thinking more of Kathmandu, but if he's cheap enough, what the hell!

It'll be on, this is the Costa Tropicala compared to oop north.

The Crown is not the Queen, it is what we call the State in this country.

Yes, big band of snow moving from west to east across the whole country. It started here in Chandlers Ford at about 05:30 and is expected to last until later this afternoon. About 2" atthe moment. Looks a bit wet to me.

That'll increase our brand awareness. Be prepared for a couple of new signings from somewhere exotic.

And we're snowbound.

Please don't.

Didn't they call in part of their overdraft at a moment's notice? (All overdrafts can be instantly recalled, by the way).

He missed a sitter at Newcastle. I think it came to him on his wrong foot. Left, right, whatever.

Some were altruistic, but supported the wrong causes. Michael Foot?

Mt daughter sat next to his son Jimmy at junior school.

That's the crucial point. With a decent goalkeeper at the least we would be sitting more comfortably and many of us were saying that we need one.

That's not real poverty.

There's still a long way to go but I have been encouraged by our steady set of results over the last dozen or so games. If we can keep clear of injuries and suspensions and keep the present form going then I would expect our position to steadily improve, but only slowly. At this stage of the season one isolated good result is not particularly significant and it would only take a couple of unfortunate mishaps for us to slip back into the struggle.

If I. Remember it correctly, he said at the time something about 'a chance to make my family financially secure'

W-walking s-stick.

There was that game up at Newcastle (New Year's Day?) when all the Saints coaches and supporters got there only for the locals to call it off.

Do you get better weather with it?

Oh good, my products were starting to look a bit expensive.

I thought it went something like: thin slow, wet snow, deep snow, powdery snow, icy snow, that sort of thing.

It's not connected because it's not needed and (IIRC) is not good for the playing surface.

A point a game from here on in might just be enough.
