I saw a stage production of this a few years ago. A brilliant evening. Mrs Tame had never seen the tv series but found it hilarious. Craig Cash apparently based the characters on people he knew. I know 2 ex policemen from Stockport and they claim that one of their ex work colleagues was even more outrageous than the bent coppers Phil and Nige!!

Chaource is a great cheese. Especially if you can catch it when it starts to liquify but before it runs out of the door. Does anyone else keep cheese in a cool room rather than the fridge? Just buy enough to consume quickly and don't ruin the taste by putting it in the fridge .

A great occasion. We won it after a penalty shootout. Watching Chris Marsden lift that triphy was a great loment for any Saints fan.

Many thanks. That was great. Ticket acquired.

Any spare tickets for this one?

I would be interested in a ticket for Middlesbrough if anyone has a spare that they don't want.

Especially as I paid over 4 dollars a gallon in October in Oregon.

So what has he to do to gain your approval? Or to be sacked?

But you think his is a stupid appointment. You seem rather confused..

I don't disagree. It almost seems that SR dictate the formation and build a squad around that formation. Lets hope that a fit Stewart returns or we somehow acquire a target man in the transfer window.

I think he is wrong because he has come to the conclusion that we have only 1 style of play after just 9 matches - in most of which we led so there was little point in changing styles. We need to give managers time to build at Saints. Deciding after just 9 matches that the manager is no good is not giving them time. As Blackmore and Tessem discussed on "Going home with Adam and Jo" Coventry's success this season is based on continuity. Robins was manager for over 7 years. Lampard decided not to change things when he came in but instead built on what Robins had done. Perhaps we should try that approach. As Alex says "I am just giving an opinion mate". Time will tell.

You are a barrel of laughs aren't you.

I bet you hate Tonda's replacement already.

Alex is saying that his appointment was stupid. Stupid appointments tend to not last very long.

Unbelievable. We have a manager who inherited a team which had amassed 12 points out of a possible 39. Under him we have taken 19 points out of a possible 27. A rate which would guarantee automatic promotion if continued for a whole season. But this does not satisfy some of the whingers on this board "There is no plan b" " We only have one way of playing" "I don't like 5 at the back" etc etc So what should we do? If Tonda is such a"stupid appointment " should he be sacked and replaced with someone who we will moan about and want sacked as soon as he doesn't win every game? Should we churn through 3 or 4 or 5 managers each season? The football that we have seen in the last 6 weeks has been most enjoyable. Probably the most entertaining since before Puell. It isn't perfect . We are all entitled to think how it could be better. We don't and we won't win every game that we play but FFS why not try to enjoy the football , support the team and not come out with the nonsense that I have quoted above.

Lampard was a prick at a young age as well. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/2219148/blues-stars-fined-after-drinking-binge He takes after his uncle.

3 2 win. Going to be a great game. Mind you I said that England eould win the Adhes 3 2 so don't listen to me. 😁😁😁

What a brilliant thread. So many memories. As Sajnts fans we have had a thin gruel when it comes to winning trophies but at least we enjoy our good moments. For me a couple of moments are Gabbiadini's goal at Swansea. I was near the front that day and near the players ' celebrations. The look on Gabbiadini's face after he scored was the look of a man possessed. Steve Moran. Portdmouth. January 1984. Need I add any more???

He will go to the World Cup with Ireland , play a couple of blinders and Real Madrid will snap him up for £40 million. Perhaps.... 😁

If my aunt had balls she would be my uncle. If Scienza had scored instead of hitting the bar, we win. If Downes had collected the rebound off the bar better and scored, we win. If Arma could have scored his pen, we win. If the linesman and / or the ref had eyes, we don't lose. Its one of those days. Sometimes it all falls into place. Today it didn't. Lets move on.....but lets also get a better keeper.

I go to the US most years. Came back 2 months ago amazed at how expensive the country has become. Don't believe Trump when he says that US inflation is dead.

Don’t knock Alex. We know who he means and I find his usual summary of pressas very useful.

Be careful. Some people (eg Duckie) got all upset when similar was posted after the Charlton match.

I agree. Towards the end Birmingham brought on several giants. Our Centre backs handled well all the crosses, corners and long throws that were sent their way.

I suspect that he knows that Aribo was shite and I expect him to have told Aribo that afterwards. He just wasn't going to throw him under the bus after a question from the local journalist. Lets see the line up on Saturday. If Aribo is in the starting line up it will be time to get worried!!
