Block 5

I hate this 'forget the cup' attitude - I blame that red nosed ***t at Man Ure. The FA Cup is the most celebrated cup competition in the world, and as previous winners we should be proud to field our best team. Anything less devalues the competition. Imagine if LM had decided to 'rest' our best players and focus on promotion to division 1 back in '75 - '76.....

The last 10 minutes of most Saints games makes me sh!t my pants.

I hope we can get 2k+.......not looking like it at the moment. Maybe a few more were sold yesterday, but the rain probably put people off.

We should NEVER HAVE NEEDED A THIRD GOAL!!!!! AP & WD need to seriously sort out our defence.

Patterson has nothing to give us yet. He NEEDS a season on loan in league 2 to stand any chance of coming to fruition.

....

Does she sit in the Itchen Jan? Same block as me?

BoB on Blu Ray is stunning. I lent it to my boss about a year ago and he still han't returned it. What a ****.

WUM.

Aphrodite's Child - "End of the World".

Hilarious! AP plays 4-5-1 and everyone wants 4-4-2. AP plays 4-4-2 and everyone wants 4-5-1.

Thatcher isn't looking too good these days.

What a legend!

Thanks Special K. I called the mix '3 phase' and tried to create an electric whole from 3 distinct phases, separated by skits. After an introduction the theme was on an old school beat digger tip, this was followed by some of the artists who were influenced by those soul beats. To finish...... a small platter of lightly fried nuggets that I hoped would appeal to all, and a JB outro with a Saints theme. Yes, pretentious twaddle, but I enjoyed putting it together. I started DJing 20 years ago and still get a buzz from music. The best thing about the SWF mixtapes is hearing new tunes and in some cases turning on to new genres. I really enjoyed Rattlehead's mixtape because it was so different from the kind of stuff I would normally listen to. It has spurred me on to broaden my musical horizons even more. I'm hoping that Rattlehead and Manji might get together and provide a beginner's guide of essentials for me. I really hope that Deppo, and Harvey both do a mixtape...... they are always listening to some pretty awesome tunes!

I am online fodder.

Julian Cope - "Love, Peace & F*ck". I am loving this, a bit of a departure from what I'm used to, but I could get into more of this kind of madness.

Agreed.

Who got that money?

AP covered this during the fans' forum. If Adam sticks with us for a while he has a very good chance of actually winning something and of gaining promotion. AP made the valid point that many players go through their whole careers without winning a medal or being in a side that gets promoted. Adam has more chance of experiencing real success by staying put for a while. Or he could go to Sunderland, Birmingham, Spuds etc and warm the bench and win feck all.

A great account Phil. Thanks for taking the time to share with the rest of us.

I'm sure I remember a ref applauding MLT when he hit a volley from the half way line straight from a keeper's goal kick. The keeper (can't remeber who...anyone help?) managed to stumble back and tip it over the bar. The ref tapped his hand against his leg a few times in recognition of the most amazing shot! If it had gone in it would have been the greatest goal ever!

I love it when we get higher attendances in league 1 than our fish fiddling neighbours down the road get in the Prem.

All peers should be rounded up and boiled in oil......Mawhinney first!

I agree Pele. I hate seeing players mouth off at the ref........that's MY job!

I totally agree 100%. Offside = offside. End of discussion.
