  1. My next door neighbour (Liverpool fan) just refers to him as the Road Runner, says it all really. He reckons we will win next Sunday with Gabbiadini giving their defence all sorts of grief and with Long coming on to stretch them in the last 15-20 mins
  2. Reading, just to rub loads of people's noses in it.
  3. Such comments always brighten the day LDH.
  4. I lived with the rust on my 105 pedals and took them off and re-greased them on a regular basis. I tried various ways of removing the rust from wire-wool to Coke until thoughts and plans of a new bike took over, and I abandoned the regular maintenance and attempts at cleaning. Fast forward to around this time last year and the Ridley hadn't been used for around six months and the pedals not maintained for a while beforehand. The result was they were well and truly rusted in and even the LBS struggled to get them out. They cleaned them up and reattached them and all seemed fine until I took it out for a ride. The LBS had got them in and tightened them up OK but the right crank thread was obviously too badly mangled. A couple of miles in and I noticed a clicking coming through my right foot which got worse. A little further on I stopped to investigate the clicking and as I clipped out I ended up with a pedal still attached to the cleat but not to the crank. Couldn't get it back in, cue one-legged ride home and new Campag chainset. Just a though also, make sure you was the pedals down with water, just enough to get ride of road salt/sweat and spray with a water dispersal spray like Bike Spray.
  5. Fair enough WSS. Look upon your 14mph as valuable endurance time. I was chatting with my neighbour who will be going to the Alps with me in June. He reckons that with the turbos and shorter rides we can pretty much imitate at our respective levels what the pros do, what we always can't do is go AWOL for 5 or 6 hours and just ride endurance.
  6. Should have gone that route in the summer.
  7. Isn't there a saying about being "normal for Norfolk"
  8. Neil McCann't anyone?
  9. Sums it up to me. No connection from day 1. A poor fit even though probably a good coach. When he speaks I just glaze over and think of the 'possibilities and opportunities' he has missed.

    Puel

    What Henry? Dum de dum, de dum de dum de dum, daah de dah de dah dah. Thought he died a few years back!
  11. Top trolling, now **** off

    And replaced with who?
  13. Ran out of steam at Charlton, same thing happening?
  14. Good to see you back at it WSS. Just a thought but this thread is kind of dying a death, so if you've got FB join us on Cycling Saints Fans. VFFT, me, Washsaint and a few others who I don't recognise from here chew the fat over there, football as well as cycling without having to put up with the self-entitled muppetry that pervades this place.
  15. Is it fear of losing, or fear of losing heavily so that your non- Saints supporting acquaintances rip the slash out of you that makes you post garbage.
  16. Big girl's blouse. It's sport, get over yourself.
  17. "Hey lets all crow over the parliamentary result. After all we won even though it was inevitable. Let's shove it to the remoaners anyway, just to keep them in their place. We are winners, we are the master race!"
  18. Not at all. We may win it, draw or lose it, it's not in my control, coming on here and bleating about won't change a thing. Too many entitled wnakers on this site who are incapable of accepting the unpredictability of professional sport
  19. Won't change anything though!
  20. Right I'm done, sleep well everybody!
  21. Not one of life's optimists then. You know having a negative appeoach to life can be detrimental to your health?
  22. How we laughed six day's ago at the reaction on RAWK, hmmmm!
  23. Wise words all the way from Virginia
  24. Not really, but it is what it is, and we are where we are at the present moment in time. Coming on here gnashing and wailing every time we get beaten in a league which is universally regarded as one in which any team can beat another at a given time just seems pointless. I would rather we'd not be in a relegation battle, but if that's where we end up that'll be because over the course of a season we didn't quite have the resources to maintain Europe League. EPL and EFL Cup campaigns. We wouldn't be the first club of similar size to struggle under the same circumstances. Oh! By the way, we can't do much about it so why do people fret so much?
