    Need a new pre-match boozer

    I was one of the lot down from London, you may have known Eric Shadick, James Whitworth, Mike Rosam and many other London Saints members. I was the large, objectionable arsehole who drank far too quickly and needed a reminder that the match started in ten minutes...:D

     

    might know you by sight, the london saints i knew sat near me in the lower east, reg and co? I sat with another london saint jim holland ( r.i.p.)

    This was posted on the echo site. IF it's the same bloke then he asked for a kicking anyway. obviously hope he does'nt croak it but if this was the same bloke he's only got himself to blame. stjamie, southampton says...

    On walking to the game yesterday i suffered the misfortune of following this cretin to the ground, witnessing his intimidation and bullying of others upon the way.On numerous occasions he approached Saints fans (including myself and my friend)asking if we wanted trouble. He was a right pain in the**** to be honest. He was reported to a steward at the first opportunity by a number of fans. Of course I do not condone what happened but why did he put himself in that position? As for saying he has just returned from afghanistan so can drink what he likes,one of my friends is serving with the marines there now and if he is lucky enough to come back alive we will be celebrating but i can guarantee it will not end in a fight!

    Have You Lost/Losing Interest In This Forum?

    I'm loosing huge interest in this site. There seems to be so many posters on here who just want to discuss who was the Saints best inside right of all time, or their ten best card games to play on the Travel Club coach; while happily ignoring that we are a our lowest ebb for 50 years and about to go bust.

    But lets not talk about the chairmen eh?

     

    Oh right because lowe and our plight is never mentioned on here is it :rolleyes:

     

    Have you been on the moon?

    So this thread has gone from cars to mini-buses and coaches. In that case I'm sure their are loads of stories from the days Clive Foley used to run his coaches (if you could call them that).

     

    I remember the time we broke down twice on the way to St Andrews (got as far as Chandlers Ford the first time, if I'm not mistaken). Got to the gound just in time to see the second goal in a 3-0 win. Also, breaking down in Anfield coach park after a 6-0 drubbing and all having to get out and push.

     

     

    Now your'e talking, good days.

    I remember going overnight to blackpool before rochdale in the league cup on an old bone shaker of a coach clive hired , the old codger driving decided he needed to sleep when we got as far as brum, seeing as there was no back up driver clive took the wheel, i remember waking myself to find him running on kangeroo juice and doing about 50 on the m6 .

    Also on the way to cov circa 88, the whole coach got stopped and nicked for no apparent reason at eastliegh , some hired a car and went anyway and if i remember rightly the game was called off :o

     

    Newcastle away 88 , clive's coach again, while we were in the ground the OB reckoned they found some pellets onboard, rumour was the driver just wanted to get home ( we were supposed to be going on the lash in nottingham til midnight, then home) we had a police escort all the way home, every county border we came too the next lot were waiting to escort us, they were even at a service station on the M1 and would'nt let us get off :rolleyes: could job the coach had a bog onboard, cant believe the OB's overeaction for no apparent reason apart from some pellets that was strangley never proved.

    People knock clive, but he did some cracking away trips.

    Norwich away 88 ( i think) there was 3 of us on the way home when the driver fell lost control on the thetford bypass , we smashed into the central reservation , span round and rolled down a bank, the car was a complete write off and ubelievably all 3 of us only suffered bumps on heads, i would like to thank the car load of saints fans who saw what happened and stopped, unfortunately they were in such a rush to get out their car that one of them cracked his head open on the roof, he came off worse than any of us, if you are a saintsweb member reading this a belated thanks ;)
