  1. Nice!
  2. Sign up the Safari bloke - he's an animal. I'll me coat -------->
  3. What's going on FFS??!?!? Anyone would think this team have never played together before............Oh.
  4. How do you know this? Are you there? If so, will you be providing up to the minute commentary? If not, I want my £5 back FFS.
  5. But that would imply he has a use.
  6. You see, I just don't get this logic. For years I could'nt afford to buy a ticket or a ST to see Saints. Didn't stop me following them. Eventually I got a Membership and now I can afford a ST. Just because something is available, doesn't mean everyone has a right to obtain/own it and this is no different to watching a pro football match. Sorry if this sounds harsh.
  7. I predict a considerable number of server crashes, lots of talk about actions to sort things out and ultimately nothing happening of any substance to make things better. Having said that, let's face facts here - £5 / year is not a massive amount of money to spend on a service that many of us enjoy the use of for a considerable amount of time and some of the whingers need to get out a little more perhaps. I have no problem with the MODing providing its fair and consistent. I do think though that full members should see some added advantage other than unlimited posts. One question for the MODs. Does the forum limit the number of accounts open to a given IP address? If not, I can imagine on match day that there are some posters who have more than one user ID open and then refresh each one over and over to gain 'quicker' access. If this is happening, it would be no surprise the forum (server) can't cope.
  8. Jaidi was getting more than a little bored acting as the hurdle for the teams warm up exercises.
  9. Blimey - Leicester sure are signing a lot of top players - they will be difficult to live with this season.
  10. Our very forthright Chairman will ensure that we get a reasonable price for the trouble-maker or he'll end up rotting on the sidelines. Wouldn't be surprised to find out that he's not even allowed anywhere near the youth teams given his attitude and we don't need that kind of disruption on the bus.
  11. OMG - no AOC in the squad...could he be gone already? MLG - can you confirm his attendance please?
  12. Fixed!
  13. Well who knows, perhaps the spotlight is turning from FIFA to EUFA now and there are some skeletons starting to appear from the closet? One things for sure, the manner in which marketing has been conducted frankly has not matched what I would consider the same aspirations NC would have for the club. I thought it interesting (disappointing) for example that neither the BBC local news or ITV news covered Jack Corks signing at 6 o'clock the day he signed. What is the point of paying for SaintsTV if you can read the same interviews on the OS? Just a couple of examples and more are covered above by others. Whatever the reasons, I am not getting too worked up about it - there are many, many more fish (urgh!) in the sea.
  14. This. (bump!) (;
  15. I was thinking of the midfield options and trying to assess the difference between Morgan and JC. For someone who is supposedly defensive minded, Cork got forward quite a bit for Burnley, has a nose for goal and is a better passer of the ball than Morgan IMO. But they are quite similar in overall style I think and coupled with that, I think NA will want the experience of either Hammond or Chaplow alongside one of them. In terms of the OP, I would suggest that it's both in defence AND attack where we'll be exposed just in terms of a lack of pace. If we don't sign a defender then I can see the RB/LB positions not getting forward as much. In terms of attack, I think Barnie and Connolly could possibly do the job IF they stay hyper-fit and stay out of clink. Of course, there are options up-front for NA too with Forte and Guly hopefully benefitting from a full pre-season with NA and the squad. Both these players have some pace and flair.
  16. Great thread Trousers - we should never forget our saviour and fellow Saint Markus L.
  17. Kick the ball Jack and don't you look back no more, no more, no more, no more, Kick the ball Jack, cos you're a Saint foreeeeever more! Cheques in the post please - nice and simple - I can hear this being sung at SMS!
  18. Why is it that some of you lot insist on slagging off the likes of Hammond now we've signed Cork? As NA repeatedly says, it's about the squad so there's no need to rubbish the players that remain. I think Cork will be a 1st choice player on the teamsheet - who will pair up with him? I think it will be Hammond rather than Schneiderlin perhaps as he offers experience. In fact, I think Chaplow could possibly provide the best complimentary play to Cork - Cork is more defensive...Chappers is more attack minded, but they both have box-to-box motors in them. Whatever, its going to be intriging to see how he fits in and make the midfield position his own. Good luck Jack - I hope you stay for the long journey and become a Saints legend.
  19. Bit like Hammond then?
  20. Good luck to the chap...he has become a part of our future.
  21. Oh no. We've got no ambition. (;
  22. Looks like Nicola has really 'splashed out' with this break away. (L; http://www.champneys.com/Springs "Everything is designed specifically to help you de-stress and unwind"
  23. Ticket prices pretty good I think for a friendly against Prem opposition and players getting near to match fitness. Will be interesting to see if we can cope with the extra pace that they will inevitable present us with. Today I purchased 5 seats in block 30 BTW.
  24. Too early to tell at the moment. If we've not spent some money to bring in 2-3 really decent players in key positions before August then yes, lack of ambition might be levelled at Cortese (the guy with the purse strings). Until that time, I think the evidence could possibly be weighted slightly in favour of the club, as we have not only not lost our best players, we're busy extending contract terms for some. So far the last two seasons have been great and I cannot see that position changing any time soon.
