The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.

British public to Boris Johnson. Fuck off! -
Indeed. He was seriously involved in getting Ossie sent off at the away game at Blackburn in the promotion season. The dogs abuse he got at The Dell later on in the season was brilliant, and stayed with him in his Everton days. Oh, in answer to thread, I forgot about Adrian Heath

Only ever really hated one player. Pre-Prem initials JB. The older ones will know who it is.

Would have been England skipper in 1966, perhaps. The one footballer my late wife knew about as her dad took her to see a statue of him in Dudley when she was a kid.

Sounded like he was trying to pin the blame on Harold Wilson at one point. What cunts these people are.

A society where celebrity is everything. I sometimes wonder whether political voting has been undermined by IACGMOOH, Love Island, X Factor et al.

OK, guilty of treason then. -
As much chance of signing him as signing Timo Werner, which if I remember wafted on to this discussion yesterday
-
That's about the sum of it. Also 40 odd beers to choose from and a recently a cider. Out in a craft brewery place in Wokingham recently and paid £11.80 for two pints, so around £3 a pint if you don't send the kegs back seems pretty decent to me.

I was kind of thinking of Matt Oakley around 2004/5 but that would be doing MO a grave injustice. -
Indeed, careless of me only seeing it through a fans eyes only. From a fan point of view though it will not be the end of the world.

Picked up a Phillips Perfect Draft from Costco for £184. Just got tthrough my first keg. Jupiter, from Belgium. Anyone else got one or similar?

Come August we’ll be relegated just like we were last August before the season started. Why can’t people wait and see. We will go down at some point but it won’t be the end of the world.

Is the away kit brown again?
-
We were relegated before the last season began.

Hmmm! You almost make 'lefty' sound like an insult. -

Absolutely spot-on. -
indeed. Edited. I think you'll agree they were good years to be Saints fan though!

Couldn't agree more. Saw my first match in 63. Its never been brilliant throughout all of the ensuing 6 decades. Promotion 66 A couple of decent finishes 69 and 71 (UEFA Cup or equivalent) Cup 76 UEFA CWC) Promotion 78 LC Runners up 79 The eighties were probably our most consistent period but we neither won anything or tore Europe apart. Post Hysel ban probably didn't help) The nineties were pretty barren but were lit up by one player. 2003 Cardiff Back to back promotions 11/12 Best league position (Since 2nd and 4th in 83 and 84) 2016 (UEFA Cup in all) That's all folks!

As an educator she is over-egging the pudding. That's all I'll say. Johnson's Britain 2022. -

Be funny if it was the Minister for the 18th Century. Can't see it somehow though. Or MF, that would be fucking hilarious. -
Many had us relegated before a ball was kicked. We haven't, but people still not satisfied. We're a very poor side. Players aren't good enough but we're there for another season at least. So in a sense we've over achieved. Sure the pundits like Merse will come out say 'I fear for them' next season and the bookies will make us odds on to go down, but life goes on. Feel for all those posting on here who've seen more games than me this season and paid good money to do so. I'm assuming most of the bile on here is coming from you. On a personal note, how I started the season and how I ended it are poles apart, but what I have learned is that football, Saints, are insignificant when it comes to the really important things in life.
