Slacking people, it's been over an hour since the Hammers game ended FFS! I'm guessing Hammond will start, probably instead of Morgan. I'd like Puncheon on the wing instead of Guly, not that I'm criticising Guly I just rate Puncheon better as a winger. Other than that the rest can stay the same. Would prefer to see De Ridder on the bench instead of Connolly. Or Chaplow or even Barnard, I really don't see the point in having DC in the squad with the options we've now got.

They come over here, taking jobs from our Dans.

I'll take that. Shame we couldn't get a winner, but 4 points against Wham this season is a decent result. Shame no other results really went for us, although a bore draw between Brum and Hull is pretty good. Brum struggling to score at home in their last 3 games, hopefully the sting has gone from their recent form. Only 5 games remaining against teams in the top half, although they do include trips to Leeds, Boro and Hull. We can win this. Come on Saints!! P.S. My thread was better.

I'll take that.

Christ, my heart rate is high enough as it is.

Second successive 0-0 draw for Brum at home. Might have taken the sting out of their form a bit.

You remind me of listening to Motty commentate on England. "Yes, England look very comfortable here. Very good in defence. I don't think xxxxxx are going to score now. England wont let this 3-2 lead slip in the last 5 minutes.... Oooohhhh!!!"

He always does when we're cruising in 2nd gear against awful teams.

Off all the strikers we've got why Connolly...

Get in Jos!!!! YES!!!!!!!!

Lee. Connolly wont chance this. No penalty, quelle surprise.

As much as I love THEVMAN's inside gossip, I'm glad he's keeping schtum today. Can do without Wham knowing our team several hours in advance.

No, they can keep that.

We should give up the Falklands immediately. Penn is right, this kind of colonial nonesense is out dated and immoral. I trust the Argies will do likewise and f**k off back to Spain?

Good luck to him. Sadly there are just too many people called Lee at the club these days.

Did Leeds away 2 years ago. Absolutely froze my tits off. Leeds were sh*te, Saints were sh*te and only one moment of brilliance from Snograss stopped it being a 0-0 bore draw. It's hardly a happy hunting ground for us either, we beat them 3-0 under Burley but that's about it really. Went to the last one on the bingo bus, which was alright because I was with a mate, had an empty seat next to me and no p*ssed up kn*bbers singing out of tune all day. I think the highlight of the day was on the bus on the way out seeing some lardy Leeds fan fall fat on his backside on the ice, only to look up and see 3 coaches of Saints fans giving him the sign language. Says it all really, they can shove their £36 tickets (£39 with our T/O I suppose) where the sun doesn't shine, although that could be anywhere in Yorkshire.

Rangers going into Admin, just on SSN.

Okay, bit of a weird analogy I'll give you that. My point was if you had been wronged by another Saints fan, would you let them off, just because they were a Saints fan? Why can't you respond to the issue at hand instead of silly remarks about my manhood. You say you will never grass on someone from your city. Well, I have to applaud your tribalism in this regard. There are hundreds of sh*tbags out there who would quite happily break into your house or car, mug your elderly relatives at knifepoint etc. etc. so they could pay for some cheap booze and a packet of fags. I find it astonishing that you would be willing to forgive and forget just because they live in an SO postcode. Anyway, a thread in which Charlie Wayman is the voice of reason is a bit too weird for me, and for that reason; I'm out.

Shhhh!! Don't mention that in front of Turkish. If you're not 18 stone, well 'ard and deal with your problems by 'ironing out' the other guy you're quite clearly a sad little virgin.

Indeed. Seing a Burnley player getting treated by a physio always gets me into an enraged fury, I can barely contain myself. So playground rules is it? How far are you willing to go with that? If you walk in on me sh*gging your missus is it alright if I'm wearing a Saints shirt at the time? Or does "no grassing" only apply if it's someone else who has been wronged and not you?

It's the same for Fernando Torres. Last time he scored, Princess Diana died the next day.

Or keep scoring until all of JLS are dead.

The difference being Pompey fans are sub human animals. I've got one I keep in the garden because it's just impossible to litter train.

There is a difference between some of the Japanese stereotypes being aimed at Tadanari Lee and implying a black person is a monkey. Jokes about killing whales, eating dogs and saying "oh reary!" are at worst silly and a bit tired. It's not actually abusing him, it's just upholding some long standing stereotypes about Japanese culture. You could say the same about the Americans being fat, French being stubborn, Scots being alcoholics, Welsh being sheep sh*ggers... basically every nationality or culture has stereotypes which are un-PC but on the whole completely harmless. Calling a black person a monkey is different. It's derogatory and implies they are sub human or animals, simply because of their appearance. There is also a long history of suffering, particularly amongst the African-American slave trade and the hundreds of years battling for equality which followed. I can't believe anyone can either support or justify this alleged incident. It's the kind of mindless neanderthal behaviour which died out in the '80s amongst anyone with half a brain cell and I'm embarassed it took that long.

What would you like people to say to him? How exactly do you see that conversation going? "Excuse me sir, but I couldn't help but notice you made a racial slur against one of Burnley's players. I disagree with you views on a moral level and believe you should rethink your views on racial equality" "Good heavens, I do believe you're right. I shall leave immediate, go home and rethink my life" At best you will probably get told to f**k off, at worst a good hard slap. The best bet is to report it to the club, who will deal with it as nescessary.
