Barry the Badger

I honestly thought last night, hopefully this will bring everybody together and stop the petty bickering and moaning on this site. Seems I was wrong. I'm pleased that the clubs next game is at home, a chance to properly pay our respects.

Point scoring? Really?

I think the one we sang for him before. Liebherr wonderland.

I hope there's a room up there with a f*ck off big TV that he can watch our games on.

Every time Ricky Lambert scores, I will think of Marcus. We wouldn't have Ricky without Marcus.

I love it when OWTS lasts for ages, kills my voice but well worth it.

I've read the news, posted on this thread, been out, played footie, had a few beers, come home. I still can't believe it and don't want to.

Seemed like such a good bloke, sad sad sad.

Spot on, I love St Mary's when it's positive and rocking, let's not let it become a negative ground.

Ah yes, full marks FF for the classic "I know whats going on, but I can't tell you" post. Ten out of ten. ;-)

It wasn't great, but in his defence he was trying to play quick goal kicks out to players on the wings, in order to set up a counter attack. I would rather he tried this and occasionally got it wrong, than not try it at all.

I never thought I would be agreeing with CB Fry, but you are not reading these posts as they are intended. There is a BIG difference between predicting sackings, and thinking that it is the right thing to do. People think Cortese may be the type to wield the axe (although at the moment there is no hard evidence for that, just hunches), that doesn't mean they want him to.

I am finding this all rather amusing really. Kind of odd, but quite funny. Poor old Plymouth really have got their knickers in a twist.... and for THE SUN to be coming over all holier than thou is also fairly comedic. I would rather we didn't make too many enemies, but we've been a well liked family club in the past and look where that got us!

I had an uzi in my bag. I was a bit nervous when they stopped me for a bag search but they said they were just checking I didn't have a bike helmet in there and to carry on.

So we've upset the press. Well f***ing good I say, the press are a bunch of tossers who on the whole care only about making money.

Yep, and I'm sure the Leeds supporters you respect so much were just full of praise for their team when they lost, dishing out hugs to the players after each dissapointing defeat.

Says the man who emailed the club because his programme didn't contain the adverts pages ;-)

I was looking forward to trying my new "best in class" burger. Then I bought it and realised it was the same. Was the improved food thing just a myth on here?

I really don't see the big problem here.

No.

Not bothered.

Except for the fact that we all knew we were after Dickson for months.

Holy crap this is exciting! No idea why really, I don't even hate Pompey that much!

I love the way that we are all extolling the virtues of Her Majestys Revenue and Customs, like they in some way represent all that is good and pure in the world :-)

I really don't buy into this theory that we are a long ball team. Sure, we have used it on occasion, but I've also seen us play some outstanding passing football. Let's take the JPT final as an example (as it's easy to find the goals on youtube). Four goals... 1 - Passing move down the right, poor clearance, good cross, handball, penalty. 2 - Throw into box, flick on, header. 3 - Lovely passing move down the left, good cross, back of the net. 4 - Long ball to edge of box, knocked down goal. So a good mix of goals there, and quite representative of our play last season in my opinion. My point is, yes we do use the long ball at times, but we also play some brilliant passing football at times. As a result we are not a one dimensional team and I will take issue with anybody who tries to claim we play too much long ball.
