  1. I went for a dump at the Dell on the way back from St Mary's. Do I win a prize? Got caught out walking home after a match and dropped a load in the flower bed in front of the flats.
  2. For the sake of playing Devil's advocate, Hammond Seaborne and Martin aren't good enough to play in the Premier League, so by that yard stick they wont want to get promoted either. Infact one could argue that only 5-10 players in our squad are good enough and therefore most of the team don't want to get promoted. In reality, that's not the case. These are proffesionals and will not just sulk because they are unlikely to get a game in the Prem next year. If nothing else Gorkss will try harder because: a) He want to prove Adkins and the critics wrong and that HCDAJFU in the Prem. b) If he doesn't get a look in in the Prem, he will want to put himself in the window for the next NpC promotion hopefuls.
  3. I think it's supposed to be one of those 'Unrealistic HCDAJFU are really funny' type threads, but it doesn't make a lot of sense. The OP is just post #7 from this thread copied and pasted. http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?31603-Joey-Barton-sacked&p=1103505#post1103505
  4. WTF? This isn't Barton's twitter, it's just some random post which Bridgey has copied from the general sports forum. Don't get why it deserves a thread on the main board, Barton is probably nearer the England squad than Owen and Hargreeves these days.
  5. If anyone is interested, this is now available on itunes and is #42 in their chart. I reckon with a few downloads we can get it into the UK top 40 this week. Search for "Masterchef Synesthesia"
  6. Just over 5 million people watched the British GP a couple of weeks ago (If you factor in the 180,000 at the track who would have watched it on TV). I'm sure the sponsors will be absolutely delighted that their brands are being seen by 3 or 4 '00,000 as of next season.
  7. You sound so surprised. Just to add, referring to about 1 billion Muslims worldwide simply as "they" is retarded. Its like saying "the Christians in Somalia are never happy but the Christians in USA are very happy. All the Christian extremists in America should f**k off back to Somalia." it just doesn't make any sense. Most of the unrest in the middle East at the moment is politically motivated and nothing at all to do with their religion.
  8. Niemi Dodd - Claus - Killer - Le Saux Fernandes - Oakley - Svensson - Marsden Beattie - Phillips Something like that anyway. I'm not so sure about the midfield being better now. Prutton and Delap were much criticised, but they were easily better than Hammond and Chaplow IMO. Holmes or McCann... both pertty average Championship midfielders I'd have said. De Ridder looks better than an ageing Tessem, I'll give you that one.
  9. It's just an unpopular regime trying to drum up support for their unpopular political ideals (I'm talking about I4UK and The Daily Mail). You cannot enforce Sharia law on the streets of Britain any more than you can enforce Jedi law.
  10. In 2003 our 'reserve' team would have been something like: Jones Telfer - Hall - Kenton - Higginbotham Tessem - Delap - Prutton - McCann Ormerod - Pahars Not good enough for the Prem, but probably stronger than our second string at the moment.
  11. Don't know why people think this affects Bart. If Kelvin were to leave, it's hardly like he'd have the GK spot all to himself. We'd only go out and sign another 'keeper, probably younger and better than the two we have now. It's not as if Kelvin is guaranteed to play just because he has a contract either. If Bart is judged to be better, he will get picked.
  12. I could have said that about a dosen times about Davis last season.
  13. Not a biography, but 'Dynamo, Defending the Honour of Kiev' by Andy Dougan was a pretty good account of a true story. Basically it's a bunch of Dynamo Kiev players taking on the Luftwaffe and several other German military teams in occupied Ukraine in WW2. Inspired the film 'Escape to Victory'.
  14. Got a Chevy Kalos I've had 2.5 years. It's a box on wheels, but for a 23 year old you wont get a lot better without getting soddomised by insurance companies. Will probably keep it till I'm 26 or 27 then try and get something MUCH better. Would quite like an XKR, anyone on here got/had one?
  15. Davis made quite a lot of mistakes at League 1 level last year. He was beaten at his near post an very frustrating number of times and often made a harsh of crosses. I'm not suggesting he should be burned at the stake, or that Bart is God, however the idea of dropping Davis certainly is not retarded. I'd say they are of similar ability at the moment, with Bart's kicking letting him down at times. Personally I'd give Bart a shot as I think he has the youth and therefore potential to become a lot better, whereas 34 year old Davis will not.
  16. Is it wrong that this one gives me a semi?
  17. I'd forgotten about Artem Rudnev, that would be awesome.
  18. Based on what? 5 or 6 games at the end of last season and a couple of pre-season friendlies. I can't think of any player who has had regular injury problems and then suddenly got fit and started playing 30 games a season. As such I'd avoid Davies, he just can't be relied upon to stay fit. Good player though.
  19. Gorkss would be a great signing. Would love this to be true.
  20. Brian Jones, Jimmy Hendrix, Janice Joplin, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain and now Amy Winehouse, all died aged 27. Only 10 years left Beiber you little w*nker!!
  21. Wouldn't mind having 2007 spec. Bale, Baird, Surman, Skacel, Pele, Rasiak and Jones in the squad.
  22. Ostlund, by a whisker.
  23. Nah, he's not a mental case. Just an attention seeking chutney ferret with a thing for blue eyes.
  24. Looking at that, he's touched the upwind engine on the ground, which is unusual, normally it's the other way around. The landing gear on the upwind side is supposed to touch the ground first. This guy has the right idea, but it looks like he has just overdone it a bit. It's no big drama really, will probably have had a few structural checks after though.
  25. Hilton Sharks bay was pretty good. All in and pretty cheap. £350 for the week. If you just want a few beers by the pool it's perfect. Not much by way of watersports and not much of a beach, but there is a dive centre. Hotel is shared with quite a few Russians and Ukrainians, but they seemed a civilised bunch when I was there.
