I thought him, Perry and Lucketti were superb for us in the Nigel Pearson escape. However I wouldn't want any of them now.
-
I agree, they might win 4 and draw 1 max, but more likely is 3 wins 2 draws or 4 wins 1 defeat. I agree with OP I think 86 points will do. We could be sat here next Sat with half that already.
-
I reckon 86 points will do, that's 4 wins. Surely we cant mess that up?
-
Perfect result for us. That's 20 games unbeaten for Town, personally I cant see them getting to 25, that's a tough ask. Win Tuesday and I reckon it's in the bag.

"Love man" by Otis Redding used to get my Mrs going a few years ago.Nowadays if I started dancing along to it, my belly would be wobbling about and she tell me to sit down and behave.

What would you rather hand - 2 games in hand or 2 points?
Lord Duckhunter replied to Red and White Army's topic in The Saints
2 games in hand when you are only 2 points behind is better any day of the week. You could lose one of them 5-0 and still end up a point above once you've caught up. If we cant win one out of Plymouth away or Rochdale away, we dont deserve to go up. -
I'm going to reserve judgement on this mainly because I dont understand the complex world of finance. However, is what ML and his family doing very much different that what Mad Milan did at Skatesville, or even Gaydamak in his early years? People jumped up and down about Wilde spending money we didn't have on a gamble for Premiership football, is this so very different?

Draw for me, it would keep Huddersfield's unbeaten run going to something like 20 games. There is no way they'll go 26 games unbeaten(they are just not that good), so they'll have to lose another one. Allowing for my poor maths I make that 86 points for them if they win the remaining 4. Meaning we need to win 5 of our 8 to finish above them.Forget about PBoro, if they draw tomorrow, they'll need to win all 5 left to even reach 86. If Huddersfield draw tomorrow and then win their remaining 5 games they'll deserve promtion, they'll be unbeaten in 2011. (not going to happen). My gut feeling is 86 points will be enough, unless Town win tomorrow.

The muslim faith appears to have a serious issue with it's treatment of females in general, and headlines like this do not help in changing that or help in any way. The problem is not sex offenders, but that across the muslim world women are treated as second class citizens. It obviously varies from Country to Country and some are more hardline than others, but we seem to accept a lower level of human rights when it comes to Muslim women, then for our own Western women.

"Keith Harris, chairman of investment bankers Seymour Pierce, which has been given the job of finding new owners, said he would ‘not dismiss’ the claim that the frontrunners in the bid to takeover the club is the Russian-backed Convers Sports Initiatives company." Well done Keith

Girlfriends making out with other women
Lord Duckhunter replied to farawaysaint's topic in The Muppet Show
This is a true story. A Geordie mate of mine had this new bird and he kept going on about how much he was getting and how fit she was. She had kids so she wouldn't let him stay, however he kept telling us about how he could turn up anytime and bang her. He got one of the lads to drop him round her house and said his sister would pick him up later on her way home from a night out, as she didn't drink. Next time we saw him he was gutted.Said that this bird was on and on saying "more, more, stay a bit longer" but his sister was outside waiting. He said to her "I would do, but what about my sister"( he didn't want her waiting for too long), to which the bird replied "fine no problem, if it turns you on, go and get her".He kept saying to us "****ing hell, she was up for a bit of pussy and all that was there was my ****ing sister". That was just too pervy for him so he dumped her. -
Even that old Leftie Michael White seems to agree it's a waste of time, first time I've ever agreed with him. http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/blog/2011/mar/28/2011-census-not-worth-the-trouble

I have just got round to completing the census. The threat of a large fine and a nagging wife means I've just looked at it for the first time. I dont want to come over all Victor Meldrew but I can not believe it. What business of the Govt's is it whether I have central heating, how I get to work, whether I supervise people or even what my religion is. I can understand that a census is important and some basic information is required, but bloody hell they'll be wanting to know what I had for dinner next. Does anyone else think half of this is a complete waste of time and rather than collate basic information is just an excuse for the Govt to interfere in our lives even more? How many rainforests have been destroyed sending the pack to every household in the UK and how much of our hard earned taxes are wasted on this "project"? Why couldn't we just fill in one sheet, with who lives in the house, their ages and occupation. In 200 years time when my ancestors are tracing me, I'm sure they'll get really excited that I ride my bike to work, have central heating and consider my health to be ok. What a waste of my time.............

Saints v Mk Dons,post match dissection...
Lord Duckhunter replied to saint lard's topic in The Saints
This will be the result we look back on in the summer, it IS the turning point. At 2-0 I thought "same old Saints", but once the first went in there was only one winner. -
Personally I think they are both too one paced. One, maybe both of them will need replacing next season. That said Barneys run at the end to hold the ball in the corner showed what he's all about, gutsy and hard working. Just a shame he's not quite quick enough.

A Skate forum is saying that Al Fahim was watching and was decked by a supporter, anyone have any details?

Revisiting 06/07 - no, really, it wasn't all bad
Lord Duckhunter replied to Crab Lungs's topic in The Saints
After 27 seasons in the top flight we should have done better than mid table and scrape into the play offs in our first 2 years down.All in all it was a pretty poor effort that second season as Burley seemed satisfied with a play off place.All I'll remember about that season was chucking away points and winning positions, including the first leg at SMS. -
Do Footballers still use dubbin on their boots
Lord Duckhunter replied to Viking Warrior's topic in The Saints
I read somewhere that most premiership players use a new pair of boots each week, so there's no need to clean them. -
When I was single I would say that the pro's far outweigh the cons. 1. They tend to be more desperate (although I'd steer clear of dating websites). 2. There aren't so many runners and riders in the field, as a few blokes aren't interested in single mums. 3. They need to rush home to the baby sitter, so wont want to hang around for a cuddle or stay all night after you've had your way. 4. They dont go out as much, so stay pretty faithful. 5. They are easier to dump without looking like a bastard. You can come out with "it's not fair on the kids" type of thing. The ones I would target are ones that have been single for a while, some newly seperated or divorced go a bit wild. If you get one whose starting to get to the "I'll never get another man" stage, then her sights will be a bit lower. Good luck, let us know how it goes.............

How old are you? Seriously, if you are past 35 most of the birds will have kids. To automatically discount them, is cutting your options down quite considerably. I was going to offer you a night Mrs Duck, but she's had 4.............
-
I still dont get it? Are you saying that after 3 election wins to get kicked out in a hung parliament, is a better result than to win a 4th term.

Based on what? A tiny % of the population protesting in London. The next proper judgement of the British people will come in 4 and a bit years time, until then it's all opinion. My personal opinion is that there would have been cuts under Labour, but they would have been targetted to aviod upsetting their paymasters at the Unions.I doubt very much if my Council tax would have been frozen under Labour, or my tax rate raised. There would have been job losses, but Private sector employees tend not to arrange marches.
