RESTORE OUR RIGHT TO PRIORITY TICKETS FOR HOME GAMES - PLEASE!!!!!
Lord Duckhunter replied to 42's topic in The Saints
Unless the Season Ticket holder is a fat twt, he can only sit in one seat. He has a seat for the man utd game, he has priority for cup games, he has priority for away games and you still want him to have priority for seats he cant even sit in. What do you think we are, some sort of ****ing golf club. Perhaps that's what you want, you can only watch a game if you're signed in by a season ticket holder. And to think people say we need a fan on the board. -
How is he showing Moyes up "big time". Everton finished 6th last year. Even if they finish 4th this year, Moyes has done that before. Most of the players were identified and signed by moyse, its basically his side with 2 loan players and a couple of others. Martinez couldn't sort out a back 4 at Wigan, come back and tell us about this "big time" show up when Martinez does more than Moyes did at Everton.

Martinez is doing great at Everton but Moyes built the foundations he's building upon. People forget how poor Everton were prior to Moyes and he made them a top 6 side season in season out. A year ago people would have laughed at Moyes to saints, 9 months of managing utd , and people write him off. If we've hit a glass ceiling, there aren't many who will keep us between 5-10th every season. Moyes could.

Its a good article, which hits the nail on the head regarding FFP. He's not saying Saints would sign John Terry or condemning saints. What he's doing is pointing out the clear impications of the rules. The problem with FFP is you are not starting from a level playing field. Clubs like Man C and Chelsea have become elite clubs by over spending in the past, but other clubs are now denied that option. Prior to FFP if the Chinese wanted to buy into saints and add 4 world class players to our youngsters , they could. Once you qualify for champions league season in season out, you're always going to be able to outspend other clubs that dont. In the past you could bridge the gap with owners deep pockets, now you can't. The whole thing stinks.

Two things that surprise me about this thread are; it hasn't been flushed to Muppet show yet, but also that 42 has got some friends to take to the game. Let's face it, if he's like this in real life, any "bring a friend " policy would be wasted on him. -
I had a conversation with the Mrs last night that shows what strange creatures they are. Whilst discussing the season ticket prices and the rise, she came out with a really stupid suggestion. Its so stupid that I'm not sure I should post it as people will think I'm married to a bimbo. She had the ridiculous idea that I could soften the blow of the rise by drinking less before the game , meaning the day out would, in effect, cost the same.

I think mrs pap must be totally devoted to you or mentally unstable. Any women who travels half way across Liverpool to meet Bazza must be special.

I remember an occasion when Mrs Duck totally lost it with me. After a particularly heavy and long Sunday lunchtime session I rolled in about 2130 to the silent treatment. This was followed by plenty of banging around, deliberate use of the hoover whilst I'm attempting some shut eye on the sofa and other assorted women mood things. Eventually I said "what's up with you", to which came the reply "what do you think". Quick as a flash I said " well it cant be anything I've done, as I haven't been here" needless to say she didn't see the joke . I did get some shut eye on the sofa, a whole nights worth.

Mrs Duck has the annoying habit of starting any nag with "whose done x" when she knows full well its me. "Oh, who loaded the dishwasher like that " , "who put recycling in the normal bin", seeing as the brats do **** all round the house and it wasn't her, who else would it be, the ****ing milkman? She also has an annoying habit of asking me to do something I was going to do anyway, which then becomes a battle . Sunday I was going to mow lawn and she went of to work with a "can you mow the lawn, im sick of looking at it in that state, you do nothing round here, blah,blah,blah". So I thought "**** this, I ain't doing it now". If she hadn't of nagged , it would have been done. I keep telling her , dont say anything and more will get done.

I'd be pap , I would then kick Bazza in the knackers on our next date.

It wasn't a peado thing, he booked to share a hotel room with a male aide. My mate in the press told me years ago Hague batted for the other side ( I actually posted it on a saints web 2010 election before this story broke). Said that his marriage was politically motivated , and that the rumours he'd heard ( but could not publish due to a certain thing called libel) were of a " relationship" between Hague and a famous ex Olympic runner.

It was hot on the heels of the Jeremy Thorpe case , to have allegations like this over another senior liberal would have been disastrous for them. Bearing in mind they only had a handful of seats at the time, it would probably have finished them off.

Glen Johnson trying hard to save Liverpool that money. He's dog shiete , looks like he could have another premier league medal, what a joke.
-
Nobody saw it, not one city player appealed and both commentators missed it. I even said to my lad " great header". It was only on reply anybody realised he'd punched it.
-
I think its more a case of. One player didn't want to be here and found a club to pay us what he's worth. And one player doesn't want to be here , but nobody will pay anything like the money we paid.
-
Neither of them are good enough. But one is supposed to be international class.
-
I'm not saying we shouldn't have let him go or indeed should buy him back. I am just contrasting his performances for palace with Gaston's for us. If anybody thinks Gaston will come good in a saints shirt , they are deluded. He is not good enough, time to get rid.
-
The ones I know absolutely love twitchy and you would think he was the founding father of Poole and the only bloke who ever lived in sandbanks the way the local media love him. Although to be fair to the satchel faced twt he does do a lot of local charity and presentation dos
-
How many more chances are the Gaston fans going to give him. He's been a complete and utter waste of money, even the incident when he got injured today was pathetic. Looked like a ballerina trying to bring the ball down in a great position. The sooner we get rid the better. Contrast his impact with the one punch has made at palace and then compare the fee.

All froth and no beer. No urgency until clyne came on. Ran out of ideas and why the ****ing hell don't we shoot.

Bloody hell Viking ever since they questioned you for smoking in the airport you seem to have a real problem with the police. They are only doing their job.

I moved to Poole in '91 ( funny enough from Oakland park FLA, bearing in mind your name) and I was surprised the amount of saints fans on the train. Some of my best mates now were first encountered on the train up to the dell. There isnt really an anti Bournemouth feel about the place, its more of a "I'm from Poole" mentality. Why would I support Bournemouth, its a different town is the feeling, particularly in the old parts and around hamworthy . The nearer you get to Bournemouth the less that's the feeling, but Poole people are Poole people, they don't ever say or think "Poole, near Bournemouth". The football club aren't even Bournemouth's club, that was Bournemouth poppies, they were boscombe cherries , then Bournemouth & Boscombe and now Bournemouth. Somebody once told me that Poole is the largest town to have never had a football league club. People have many and varied reasons for supporting saints from Poole. My 4 children do because I was born in Southampton and brainwashed them, even though they've no other ties to the city. I think most of the support stems from Poole people wanting to watch first division football back in the late 60's and 70's and the transport links being pretty good. I think this generation then influenced others, nephews, kids etc and the support just grew. I've certainly never heard people say the don't like Boscombe out of any chip on their shoulder over town size or proximity. Any dislike of boscombe is down to their wannbe a skate behaviour, their fawning of twitchy or their blind hatred of us. They really do resent BH Saints even more than they hate Man u or arsenal supporters living in Poole. It never used to be like this, its a very new thing. What makes me laugh is sometimes they moan about "glory hunters". Glory? ****ing hell .
