Get ready for Bulgarians and Romanians coming
Smirking_Saint replied to Thedelldays's topic in The Lounge
I dont think anyone is ignoring the fact that our own house is in a complete mess and yes the majority of our problems we face as a country is to do with the rediculous way we support people for doing f*ck all or overstretching themselves, personally as a side point I dont think people should get any extra help for more then two children, we live in a country with free contraception, more than two should be a choice that you as the parents need to justify... Taking the moral highground on immigration however is just ignoring another part of the problem, smaller yes, but still a problem. And no its not xenophobic as such, it is just realisation that we cant cope. Another real worry of mine is the way that racism is spreading in the country, I see it more often now, its not at a viscious level, more a daily mail level, but unfortunately unless things change it will begin to manifest into something more sinister and that worries me more than anything. Multicultural britain is beginning to make the average joe feel less worthy. I for one dont want to see a extreme right uprising like in Greece but it COULD happen -
TBH the only thing you are consistant in is your persistant negativity and the ability to be catastrophically incorrect. The past few seasons I have had to read your constant drivvel of players underperforming or not good enough, managers being clueless, chairmen overly interfering and transfer windows being a complete mess as well as being a selling club blah blah bloody blah And what has happened ? Two promotions, a cup win snd sitting in a safe position come january ? Now as I said before, you either post this sort of inflammatory crap for one of two reasons; 1. You do it as a WUM, attempting to cause frictions and arguements with your fellow posters, no doubt hitting the report button as you continually bang the same old drum no matter how wrong you are proven. 2. You are an idiot and dont understand the game from a playing or political point of view, your posting style suggests your probably not a conventional idiot but its not something I am going to rule out

I am not against immigration per se, I work with a guy from the czech republic, couple of poles etc in a very high level field (3 years plus training/ degree education etc) I think we need to limit the influx to a point where we allow immigration if it is to fill jobs for which we have a lack of expertise but stop it for jobs such as labouring etc We are already overstretched massively and our benefits system is already bloated to bursting. Lets face it, this is the real reason our immigration levels are so high, because of the NHS and benefits. Id like to see that people need to have contributed a significant amount in income tax before they become able to claim in order to keep things in check. Obviously the liberals will tell me I have no compassion to my fellow man etc but in reality it is us that will suffer -
MLG where do you teach ?

The January 2013 HCDAJFU thread...
Smirking_Saint replied to Dibden Purlieu Saint's topic in The Saints
I agree, Bacon sandwiches are far better than Sausage no matter what flavour sausages you use. You need to get the right bread though -
Something like this as we had the majority of the club wembley tickets

Is the issue between MLT and NC a professional or a personal one?
Smirking_Saint replied to Thedelldays's topic in The Saints
Exactly my point, MLT says NC isnt very nice, which is purely his opinion. All the little sheep then form a hatred born from one mans opinion ? Like I said, I dont know NC, I have 'encountered' him through work and lets say he wants what he wants, but I really dont get tge vitriol from MLTs side especially if its all over a few tickets to a cup game. -

Smirking_Saint replied to Thedelldays's topic in The Saints
TBH though, I think its just all been blown out of proportion, if Le Tiss had bought tickets infront of regular punters for the sole reason it was UTD. Then there would be the fallout that regular punters would be forgotten about by nobodies. How many tickets did he want aswell ? Why couldnt he just hire a box ? But basically it was as expected, a load of old guff that has put Le Tissiers nose out of joint. Unfortunately untill the time that anything concrete comes out against NC then it will still be guff and MLT will keep letting Saints down in the press -
They probably could have grabbed Falcao for that at the time, can you imagine ? Falcao and Suarez upfront with Gerrard behind ?

Unlike the world that Alps lives in though there is still plenty of time left for the clubs to get players in. Itll be a busy final week, as per usual

I remember Stu's final downfall, it was brilliant. He got himself all wrapped up in the installment system and tried to do a bit of maths. Remember when he was consistantly proven wrong he would either ignore you or go off on one. He seemed pretty harmless though, apart from the hardman image he tried to pull off. Gave a few giggles though

Jack you have been voted down as there is no way Im going to read a 4 paragraph post in the site suggestions thread

Underfloor heating is ok whilst it works, knightmare when it faults. The piping is better (but more expensive) than the wire. You could start another thread, would you pay full price on a property if part of its top features were not working ?

Two BIG exclusive interviews tomorrow
Smirking_Saint replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
I think the fact that some people prefer to just support the club rather than get agitated by some half fact arguement about contractor payments or the fact that ex club legends who have far more money than Ill probably ever amass are upset that their free meal ticket had been removed -
Two BIG exclusive interviews tomorrow
Smirking_Saint replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
Ahh ok cheers -
Reminds me of the hero worship of BWP which was equally as confusing, at least a few have noticed that he is a poor player now. He runs into blind alleys too much, cant cross, doesnt seem to know what anyone is doing around him. Id probably rather try someone like Chambers on the bench TBH Downing looking decent again (not necessarily today) I got told I was an idiot to want him on a free.

Two BIG exclusive interviews tomorrow
Smirking_Saint replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
So, what was the other interview then ? -
SDR is a terrible player, unfortunately in the premier league it takes more than someone just running at you, Guly is and always has been a better player. I cant remember the last time, if ever, I have thought SDR is anything to rave about
-
This, said this last night to the boys. We dont look dangerous enough without Lallana and if Punch or Gaston have an off game. SDR isnt the answer and for all the effort Guly puts in he isnt really creative enough. Also remember the start of the season without Cork and how we struggled. Well, I think we need a decent back up here too

Except for taking us out of bankruptcy, two promotions and a tin pot trophy ? -

Smirking_Saint replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
Whilst I agree with what you say, I couldnt really give a toss what some snotty nosed man city supporter from a bedsit in Croydon thinks. Of course I would like Matty involved in a more positive way but he obviously has never tried to mend any bridges. Cortese doesnt strike me as a liar, if he says he has never met matt than I believe it. I just dont get the vitriol from Le Tiss' side TBH As per the interview, it was all just hot air really designed to make Cortese seem a bit more personable. I dont mind the bloke that much but this interview hasnt really revealed anything -
Goes to show the average fan knows very little

Yeah started on there, TBH I cant be arsed so much ATM Ill pop on now and again. You, Tokes and Bear keep me entertained still. And there are still some good footballing posters on here, more often though humour is stamped out and any sense is drowned out by the fools
