I appreciate your apology.

Exactly, we still have to play all the teams above us, bar Bournemouth, at home. No point worrying about the table, keep winning and we will be second soonish.

Mickey Evans, hell you gotta be yanking my chain dude - this bro' was signed on a goddarn shoestring and hit the goal-strikes that maintained our EPL status when we were staring down the barrell of an early roster pick!

The notion that they can source funds from anyone reputable is barmy.

Ooooh, that's pretty offensive.

Dave thinks it's important we win. We'll be looking to win. We'll no want to lose.

Well isn't that precisely the reproach that Turkish is levelling against Yorkshire folk? Cogito ergo sum, I am not a fan of Yorkshire.

Yeah, you're quite right - the worse thing that ever happened, alcohol related, was a bad head.

Mills was one of the departures that annoyed me the most as I could see he would turn out to be quality.

Well, he's clearly a Championship level striker so if that makes him "awful" then fair enough.

That was a bad miss actually!

Obviously not. By that logic someone who goes on to play for Andorra or the Faroe Islands is better than Chaplow. What 'tardishness.

Nonsense. People slag him off when he plays poorly, which he did on Saturday.

Hammond was probably our best player on Saturday IMO.

Something for the resident cloak and dagger merchants to get their teeth into. Oh, and if you want to find out who he really is, please don't PM Weston

Did the club give an expected completion date when they announced the plans? Can't remember.

I also like their policy of starting the profile of the Saints players with an adjective where possible. Such beauties as "swashbuckling" put to good effect. ps. I was looking over someone's shoulder; I don't purchase programmes. I'm nails, me.

Play the strongest available 11 and change things on Saturday if we must. I can't believe the number of posts/threads on here today talking about dropping people.

Ps. There is a Ben Elton novel called "High Society" which considers this. Obviously, it can only scratch the surface of the debate but it's a good read.

These!

No.

Saw something very similar. Some skanky looking baldy in a tracksuit with a pikey earring barged into a Saints fan outside as we left then tried to start a ruck. The guy he barged into was just really surprised and didn't want anything to do with it. The dirty northerner was determined to have a go though but some big lad stepped in and pushed him away. As it happened, it ended up being quite funny as the dirty northerner realised he was going to a get a pasting from the bigger lad if he didn't fook off sharpish. They were really bad losers though. Surprised because they're not exactly ripping the league up. I guess one season of relative success has gone to their heads.

Unless you're a disgruntled ex of some sort you'd have to be mental or silly not to be grateful for Cortese and optimistic about the Saints.

I have added you to my list of sensible/intelligent forum members.
