Two of our players in the worst 20 in the league
Lighthouse replied to doddisalegend's topic in The Saints
We keep being told this. I'm not sure what part of being offside and sticking a shot into row Z allows others to score somehow. Maybe I just don't understand football. -
Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES
Lighthouse replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
Haven't seen anyone defending this act; I'm certainly not. It goes without saying that we don't want this kind of thing happening and we don't want these people in our country. What is up for debate is the solution. I don't think the answer is to stop Muslims coming here and I despair reading comments about how 'we now tolerate Muslims coming over here and raping our underage children.' We need to nip this problem in the bud and that bud is British born Muslims being isolated, brainwashed and marginalised. I personally would start by banning all religious schools but that would upset far too many people. -
Just looked on wiki and Clifton James passed away a month ago aged 96. I wouldn't say I loved him but he was at least plausible, unlike Golden Gun where a Louisiana state trooper is for some reason buying a car in Thailand. The duel at the end in the 'fun house' was a good scene but the plot overall is just boring and riddled with holes. It basically comes down to an assassin selling some solar panels. Goodnight is just a bimbo in a bikini and as plausible a secret agent as Denise Richards was as a nuclear scientist.

There's nothing to say we haven't been talking to potential managers for several weeks, behind the scenes

Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES

Widespread public outcry and disgust at the crimes and the cover up by the Police, followed by lengthy prison sentences for the perpetrators. Not denying these were terrible crimes, committed by Muslims in Britain but I haven't seen anything resembling tolerance for it. -
Or any of his other crimes it would seem.

Not a bad idea actually. We could have a wage bill of £350,000 p.a. and win the league with 378 points.

Oh give it a rest, there's no such tolerance and you know it. The safety brief is no different to the one you would have had under decades of IRA attacks. -
Must be the money.

What we really need is to round up all these Muslims into camps, where they can be concentrated away from society until we think of a final solution to this problem. Surprised nobody has ever tried something like this before. -
We were closer to being relegated than we were to the next team above us in the table.

If you're referring to The Man with the Golden Gun, I'd say that was one of the weaker films in the series. It's only saving grace was the truly wonderful Christopher Lee, playing arguably one of the best Bond villains of all time. The scenes with Britt Ekland and the insufferable JW Pepper were pretty poor. If I was going to go full geek and put the Moore films in order 1. Octopussy 2. For Your Eye's Only 3. Live and Let Die 4. The Spy who Loved me 5. Moonraker 6. A View to a Kill. 7. TMWTGG

One would assume there would be a high proportion of children at an Ariana Grande concert. Just sickening really. -
It's not that playing for a club like Saints will stop you getting in the England squad. Is more that playing for a big 6 club will guarantee your place in the squad, no matter how poorly you perform.

Really? A man who failed comprehensively to keep Sunderland up, when Fat Sam, Di Canio and Poyet all succeeded. A man who took Man Utd from Champions of England to 7th A man who took Real Sociedad from Champs League contenders to 16th

Part of me is curious as to what MS could achieve given time and resources to build his own squad. The other part thinks he just didn't do enough at Hull and despite an upturn in form, ultimately they bottled it big time. I'd like to think we've been observing better options abroad.

We had a bat in the Northam once.

Isn't our record for starting away from home in the Premier League something mental, like 13/16? Watford at home this year but then Newcastle, Liverpool, West Brom, Man City, Villa and Leicester all away before that, from what I can remember. I'd just like to avoid a newly promoted team away as they tend to be well up for it. Spurs away would be good, catch them cold whilst they're still getting to grips with Wembley.

If Virgil's current injury turns out to be the end of his career and Saints cancel his contract tomorrow without paying £0.01 in compensation, he'll still have earned 5 times the cash I will ever see in my life time. That argument carried weight once upon a time, when Tom, D*ck and Harry from Woolston were playing for us, but not any more. I can see why players leave for big clubs and more money, it's blindingly obvious. I just don't buy the woe is me, sop story Fonte came up with when he left.

Like it or not, he's our top assister. Not saying he's that good, just the best we have.

SWEEPSTAKE ALERT - Puel departure announcement timing - all welcome
Lighthouse replied to CB Fry's topic in The Saints
Think we'll leave it a good week, so it doesn't look too brutal. I'm going for 10-11am a week on Monday (29th I think) -
Everton aside, Sims has done nowhere near enough to warrant a place in the team yet. If he is starting next season, we really are in trouble.
-
Boufal, Austin and Hojbjerg. Hope this helps.

With a transfer window coming up and a fair bit of gardening needed in our current squad anyway, what direction should we go with our formation. There's the obvious solution, copy the winners and go with 3-4-3. I personally quite like it and feel it would solve a few of our problems, most notably having 2 out and out strikers, which has to be better than our current plan. If Austin and Gabbi can put enough pressure on opposing defences it might force them to go back to the keeper and play it long, which is to our advantage with 3 CBs on the pitch. - - - - - - - - - - Forster - - - Yoshida - - Virgil - - Stephens Cedric - - Romeu - - Hojbjerg - - Bertrand - - - - - - - - - Tadic - - - - - - Austin - - - Gabbi Obviously that depends on who stays and goes.
