Turkish

You make some good points and i agree, the dales are nice, and i said Leeds and York are great cities but honestly i have never met people like it. You say old people, but i lived in Harrogate for a year or so when i first met the bird and my landlord who was 26 at the time could not stop talking about how great Yorkshire was, when he went away how glad he was to be back in God country. Are the Dales better than say the Cotswolds, the New Forest or Cornwall and Devon? Every country has its unique features and beauty, but i find the arrogance of yorkshire people unreal. It has its nice parts yes, but it also has it's REALLY sh*t parts, having lived there and gone up there every month for a weekend for the last 10 years i dont consider it any better than anywhere else in the country* * I hope that didn't offend you, i dont want to upset people and get more infraction points as apparantly this might be considered offensive

Having recently come off a ban and been acused of offensive posting and pointless comments and give infraction points for this, i was just wondering what the boundries are and what people really find offensive. Personally i have a very high offence threshold, not much if anything offends me, not p*ss taking, abuse, being called a c*nt etc However it seems some of you delicate little flowers are a little more sensitive than i am. Obviously blatent racism etc is offensive but is calling someone a goon for having a vendetta against you really offensive, for example? I had someone post a picture of a guy with Turkish on his SAints shirt (now my avatar) claim to be me when it isn't, is this offensive? What do you find offensive, pointless and sarcastic? I mean, as for the latter two of these if infraction points were dished out for ever every pointless or sarcastic comment or thread then then there wouldn't be many left on this forum as every thread contains them. However some TSW superstars seem to be able to say what they want, when others are brought to book over it.* I hope no one is offended by this thread, i dont want to offend people or get more infraction points as some of this post might be considered offensive.

well if you're going to be pedantic and it not being the point of the OP, then swap S****horpe for Doncaster. FFS. * * I hope that didn't offend you, i dont want to upset people and get more infraction points as apparantly this might be considered offensive

Personally for me it's Italy. Beautiful country, beautiful food, fantastic cities and the people have an air of class and arrogance about them which i love.* * I hope that didn't offend you, i dont want to upset people and get more infraction points as apparantly this might be considered offensive

jog on!* Darjeling & Earl Grey are head and shoulders above Yorkshire tea. * I hope that didn't offend you, i dont want to upset people and get more infraction points as apparantly this might be considered offensive.

Yep, this happened at both games, in 95 the skates tried getting at the saints fans inside the ground too. It's well know that Pompeys reputation over the last 30 years is far worse than ours. To be fair to the news they haven't held back when it's come to reporting on their lot too in the past, events such as 04 against us and when they kicked off inside the ground away at Coventry in about 2001 were headline news several times. The whole thing at SMS has been completely blown up out of proportion, i cant believe people are still in court for it, 8 months on, this now, what 25 odd people facing jail? All some of them did was shake a fence. Scandalous.

I have the pleasure of having in laws from this area, but aren't Yorkshire people the most self righteous breed in Britain? Yorkshire Tea Yorkshire Bitter Yorkshire puddings Calling their country "gods country" and a general air of arrogance about a county which contains places like Bradford, Hull, Grimsby and S****horpe. Granted Leeds is a great city, Harrogate & York are nice places but is it really as good as they make out? For every Leeds there are 5 towns like Rotherham, for every inch of dales and moors there are sprawling council estates like Seacroft and Morely in Leeds. Hardly "gods country"* * I hope that didn't offend you, i dont want to upset people and get more infraction points as apparantly this might be considered offensive

Personally yes, innocent until proven guilty is supposedly the basis of law in this country (although that is another arguement for another day) However, peoples knee jerk reaction whenever anyone is accused is "no smoke without fire" and mud sticks. Until someone is convicted or pleads guilty the press shouldn't be allowed to publish any names or addresses, if they are aquited but employers, neighbours even friends and family might always thinkg, "well they were lucky and got off" even when there was not actually anything to get off.

:lol: I had forgotten about that. Remember that game v Man City, V dull game. Blackburn were the Man City of mid 90's, nice to see a club of that size winning the league looking back though. Other memories CArlton Palmer, Keith Curle, Geoff Thomas and Andy Sinton all playing for England Half time entertainment being bands miming on the pitch, remember Curiosity Killed the Cat at the Dell once on a night game. Horrendous kits, the blue away one c92 which looked like a bird had sh*t all over it and the yellow and blue striped away one. Man Utd being full of brilliant young English players and built around Cantona A sit in after the Oldham (?) home game in protest at Branfoot

Doesn't it annoy everyone how Sky go on about "since the start of the premier league" like football never existed before 1992. It drives me nuts.

In the words of Shaun Ryder, Thrills, Pills and bellyaches.

I agree Essruu, it is widely excepted that Adam was the first living human, as Adam was made in gods image then he was created as a perfect human. Adam was hetrosexual, therefore so is god. Anything other than hetrosexuality must be a genetic abberation or in some cases a victim of a "confused" society; either way anything other than hetrosexuality is a sin.

This should be a reality check for all those that were beating one out after beating Bournemouth by two penalties and a Tranmere side who were one of the worst i have ever seen in over 25 years of watching football. Quite simply we were well beaten by a better side, you can dress is up how you like with regard to tactics, trying to play to much football etc but man for man Huddersfield were better all over the park. Lambert was poor again and is a shadow of the player he was, it is time to drop him and start with Barnard up front, he has been unlucky to lose his place but he deserves one ahead of RL at the moment. Same with Puncheon, he has been poor all season, when does he ever beat a man by going wide? AC is definitely worth a place above him right now. We struggled to string two passes together in the opposition half and rarely looked dangerous and as for this business about learning lessons and not overplaying when in dangerous areas, f*ck me, 10 year olds know that is you cant play your way out of trouble get it our of the danger zones, it's basic stuff. This was probably our toughest game of the season and i would happily have taken a draw before KO, but i didn't expect us to be so poor and so compehensively beaten. Of course it doesn't mean our season is over and we wont go up anymore than beating Tranmere 2-0 meant we would definitely be champions, but we are a long way off what was expected when the season began. 5 league defeats already this season against 9 over the whole of 09/10 tells it's own story.

maybe even some of the prossies, although they were eastern European so may have supported other clubs, although i am reliably informed that the Krakov GAzette is today runnning the headline "Wisla Krakov fans in English Prositution shame"

Bad luck, as a saints fan it'd be football related management of a brothel so it'd be 15 years and a life time football ban for you.

Of course Harding makes mistakes, if he didn't he wouldn't be playing in L1, but he is one of, if not the best left backs in the division. Dickson is a good player but i feel that it is a bit of a waste of talent him sitting on the bench, he is too good for that, Mills was able cover for Harding.

The Queen Anne in Vauxhall, old building, some of the birds in there have a bit of history and could tell you a story or two and cheap entertainment, only 50p in the pot or you can just nip to the toliet for a slash if you dont fancy one of them.

Absolutely bang on.

but you could say the same about Pardew, took a team that had underperformed for 5 years, built a new team won a cup, decent FA Cup run would have got play off but or a 10 point handicap whilst at Saints that in the circumstances is a succesful season. You could argue he overachieved at West Ham with a cup final and 8th place finish and got them and Reading promoted. I think and hope Adkins is a sucess but there are no guarentees, just look at Strachan at Middlesborough. It's a good start, but if anyone thinks, like saintscottofnortham that he can be judged as a success after 6 games then it is foolhardy.

I am neither agreeing or disagreeing if Pardew should have been sacked, we are where we are. IMO NA is doing a good job so far and long may it continue, he has made an instant impact, but then a lot managers experience a honeymoon period where things go well for a time. Alan Perin at the skates, Juande Ramos at Spurs all had great starts but are regard as up there with the worst managers in their clubs history. To say NA is a roaring success and the Jesus Christ of football management after 4 weeks is foolish.

Adkins is better qualifed academically than Alex Ferguson, does that make him a better manager than him? From what i have seen of Adkins he does seem to be a good manager, the team are playing well and attractive football, but he has only been our manager for 6 games, no time to judge at all.

how can you say that after 6 games?

Err, no they dont.... The majority view seems to be that we would have got promoted under Pardew.

Bristol Rovers are on the same points as us and Swindon, who have recently beaten us twice, hardly dire. To win 4-0 against anyone in the same division is a great result. And you are wrong, people would have given a sh*t if Pardew was sacked before Bristol Rovers, as you can see from this thread, most people were happy with him.

my hands are like a bunch of bananas.
