"Fans Love Players like Puncheon... who take people on...."

Then they stick through thick and thin to an underperforming lump of a striker who is not really showing signs of improvement. -
He is too busy on his new site i think

That is the game of a winger i am afraid Rally. Bale had a torrid time against Everton, as did Ronaldo a few times when he was at Man Utd. Does it make them bad players ? No. As a winger you are either on top or not, it is not hiding it just shows the full back has had a better time of it. -

I rate Puncheon, he has a better brain and technique then the majority of our players and certainly didn't get enough change from our underperforming strikers. As usual the Northam need someone to blame and turn on a player who is lacking confidence. On another note in regards to beating players, i did see him beating players, working hard and he had a good touch. One thing to remember is that he if he were to get to the byeline due to him playing as an inside forward and so on his wrong side (in regards his strongest foot) he would then have to attempt to cross on his weak side. This added to the fact that really and truelly any experienced full back that come across a winger that beats him in 4/5 1on1's is having a sh*te game. I am not surprised Puncheon is playing well for Millwall after all it is his level, i'd like to say i am surprised with the majority missing his obvious talents but honestly i am not. -
Bale has been the best player of recent times to leave saints, but you could see he had it from the very very start IMO. Walcott was another top top young player and to top it off he has so much pace to burn, is Ox as good as Walcott was at his age ? I don't know really, some times i think so some times i don't, IMO i think Ox has a better brain then Walcott has at his age but doesn't have the same pace to burn and you have to remember he is playing against lesser opposition in league 1. Still, i don't really want to be losing any of our young gems unless we have to any more.

Plenty of chance for promotion, especially for a gobby teenager. Fell on my feet really, thats what a night of drunkenly applying for every job on the internet gets you -
He is probably our best player TBF

Smirking_Saint replied to doughnutman's topic in The Muppet Show
By overtime i mean standby TBH. We aren't allowed overtime unless in extreme cases, and TBF i think your right i don't think i am not actually allowed to claim 'overtime' as i just get told 'its part of the job' I spent 2 years on reletive crappy money really. Then got a half decent rise and then the big one. Thats what technical apprenticeships get you, can't say enough good about them, sod running up a debt for a degree -

Smirking_Saint replied to doughnutman's topic in The Muppet Show
I got a 33.3 % payrise basic, before bonus and overtime. Thats what hard work gets you folks -
I got a similar amount of homework, TBF none of it was really that time consuming, the coursework was a different matter altogether though. They are just trying to better educate the children, otherwise you could end up as some sort of rent a quote geriatric nazi with a alcohol problem, or one of the forum grammar police.

Major roads are fine mate, its getting to them thats the problem.

I don't think it is just the fault of the Panorama or the scandal that came out in the paper. It is the media in whole giving the world the impression that we are owed a world cup, thats where most of this guff has come from, we are the best etc etc and if we don't get it then there must be something wrong etc as how can anyone ever look over us ??? Thats the problem mate, the overall arrogance. That said, now that the fact that we never got past the first round, thats a bit of a kick in the teeth and i would have thought it would be closer this and the fact that Qatar have been picked for 22 is what leads me to believe there are still plenty of backhanders around.

El-Abd's Injury from the Brighton Game - Not for Faint Hearted!
Smirking_Saint replied to LGTL's topic in The Saints
Because the first time was more of the tackle TBH rather than the blades, the second time however was 100% because my foot stuck in the ground. I have also had similar experiences twisting my ankle in blades. TBF though, it was always the plastic blades and not metal. I still would never wear them again. -
