  1. There isn't a deposit, the price is divided by 5. The first payment is now, the other 4 are monthly. I guess it won't be interest free if you don't fully pay your credit card bill. I do, so it'll be interest free for me.
  2. I've just bought my tickets on the 0800 number. When paying by credit card, the total cost of your tickets will be spread over 5 equal instalments. The first is taken now, the 4 subsequebt payments will be taken from the same card (or different if you wish) around the 1st of each month.
  3. Didn't see the whole piece, but I thought she was a Reading fan at So'ton General Hosp. Maybe wrong, but if it was SGH, maybe he was passing on his way to St Marys, possibly to be measured up for a kit.
  4. Defo, Me + the nippers will all renew. The youngest is not keen, but I will get him one anyway (it was only £50 last year).
  5. Top bloke. I just wonder how lenient the Plod/courts would have been if the house owner had been a strong, fit 30 year old and done the same thing. My guess is he would have been arrested and charged with assault.
  6. Driving to Cardiff with my lad (6 at the time), with scarves & flags on the car, it was the first game he saw saints lose, and he was devastated, :smt022 mind you he’s seen plenty since. Another great memory is when we demolished Coventry 8-2 at the Dell in 1980-something. Hatricks from Danny Wallace & Steve Moran plus a rare goal from my hero at the time, Frankie Worthington. Can’t remember who scored the other goal, can anyone help me out?
  7. I thought Springsteen was great. There was a Saints flag right in the middle of the crowd near the front, it got plenty of tele time
  8. Psycho, I'm far too young to remember Dennis Hollywood.
  9. He has one cap. GK: Budgie Burridge LB: Dennis RB: Gerry Forrest CB: Mark 'Albert' Whitlock Mid field General: Case
  10. Good luck and thanks Killer. The last of our Prem players now gone
  11. I remember it crystal clear. I was walking home from school & was about 200 yds from home. A car pulled up next to me & the driver wound down his window, I thought I was about to be abducted by the local weirdo. He asked me if I was a Saints fan, and if I'd heard the news. I said I hadn't. When he told me I thought he was pulling my chain. I legged it home & told my mum that a stranger had told me we'd signed KK, she then proceeded to chastise me for talking to strangers.
  12. I can. He probably thought he would have been next, 3 teenagers taking on 1 oldish bloke isn’t a fair fight. Kids nowadays have no respect for authority, be it the Police or an older person. If I had been doing something I shouldn’t and an adult appeared, let alone said anything, I stopped what I was doing, at least until he had gone. Say anything today & you’ll do well just to get a mouthful of abuse thrown at you.
  13. Don't care as long as it's away to a London team. Mrs Geezer has booked to see a show in London on the Friday night, staying in a hotel ready for a jolly day out in the big smoke on the Saturday. I'm sure she wouldn't mind a bit of shopping whilst I went for beer & footy
  14. I believe he once lived in a riverside appartment in Whitworth Rd, off the Triangle.
  15. I thought the inflatable escape chutes detach to form a raft
  16. It also has this at the top of it: Last Updated: Monday, 4 September 2006, 09:52 GMT 10:52 UK
  17. How the mighty have fallen. What a great day that was, despite the result, that was the first game my son (6 years old at the time) had seen us loose. We didn’t quite have enough matches under our belts to ‘earn’ the right to purchase tickets, so had to go through an agency and bought 2 tickets for £375 each. Our tickets were originally meant for the London FA, hence we were sat in the front row surrounded by Arse fans, Saints end though, on the wings. At the final whistle my lad burst into tears, and the big bloke next to him (Arse fan) put his arm around him and said something like ‘maybe next year’, which was a lovely gesture considering he had a Saints flag in his face for most of the game. Incidentally that entire day cost me near on £1000, I still haven’t told Mrs Geezer. I’m glad we went though as I think it will be a long time ‘till were back there.
  18. Pete Murray, Colin Bennet, Jim Maidment, Bernie Snagg, Fish Robertson, Steve Parish, Nicky Drew, Kevin Grace, Alan Hindmarch, Tony Whithead, Tont Highmore, Pete Lane.... Cant remember anymore. I was fan great entertainment on a Saturday evening
  19. Probably London Irish at the Mad Stad
  20. Already available, hopefully they've managed to sort out the problems you get when hatching, doubt it though hatching has been crap since R12. :mad:
  21. Me too, Adams Park is a nightmare. Rugby World Cup at St Marys - Bring it on I've been getting a little disillusioned with football lately, (players wages, players falling over whenever an opponent comes within 2 yards of them, players arrogance, not to mention the whole SFC circus of recent months). I would love to see top class Rugby at St Marys . My 2 lads both play Rugby and love it and despite being ST holders it's been difficult to get them along to matches lately, especially the youngest one. He played at Adams Park recently in a half-time exhibition match and really enjoyed it. Before the missiles get primed for launching I'm not advocating it should be Rugby played exclusively at St Marys, but a ground share would be good. Tin hat on - sand bags filled.
  22. Fair enough, I've never heard the show before, the radio was left tuned in from the game on Sunday & I couldn't be arsed to change it. He may be right wing, but in this case I agree with him (for the record I've always voted Labour Hmmmm... :confused:). I'm sure anyone earning £8K and above could spare a little cash from their coffers.
  23. This was discussed by Mark & Stuart Dennis on Wednesday evening, I was surprised that no-one on here started a thread about it yesterday – I can’t ‘cause I’m too tight to stump up a fiver. Mark Dennis was apoplectic that none of the players had offered to defer. They interviewed someone from the Echo about this who said that the reported cuts by Euell & Davies was just media hype & completely untrue. He said that SFC had approached other Chanpionship clubs for advice (why?), and were advised that it would be bad for morale – (if they’ve played with high morale for the last few weeks Christ knows where we’d finished if the players had been upset – bless’em. For my part, I’d have thought the senior players should have OFFERED to take a pay cut, not wait to be asked by the club, administrator, whoever.
  24. No injuries to report, but when Pahars scored against the skates, I jumped around like a loon and my mobile flew out of my coat pocket and bounced down the steps - I was picking up bits from 4 or 5 rows in front of me. My youngest lad slipped over on a patch of water outside one of the lavies and bruised his knee - spent 20 minutes in the company of the nice ladies from St Johns.
  25. lol'd in the office - got a few comments
