  1. Could do a youtube video of me at 63 and people would think I was worth 30m. Christ, remember the Tinman from South America, the club played a video on the bigscreen just after we bought him and he looked like Maradonna and Duncan Ferguson combined, sadly we got Shiela Ferguson
  2. Entertaining as always
  3. I think the latest episode was perfect. Glenn especially, owned up to perhaps being too quick to condemn NJ, but at the same time left the door open for future criticism. All fair IMO. Nobody at present can be sure if NJ is the messiah or not lol
  4. I was also in the give him time camp, but beware it is not the time for told you so quite yet. I like his passion and he will bring the fans with him, he owes the players like Che and JWP a lot as they have shown their keenness to back him .That immediately makes fans think that he may not be that bad. The twerp who said KWP disliked him was soon shown to be a bull@@@@ merchant
  5. will be interesting how the Everton fans are tomorrow. They played a massive part in them staying up last season. Hopefully they turn on their team and we can take advantage, if we give them anything to rouse them and that will be a major negative for our chances
  6. Personally it has destroyed my European sales. The paperwork and added costs make the shipping and export of items impractical. Whilst Iam in a niche market it all adds to the reduction in our exports from my industry. The major players in the auction market , world famous names are moving their operation to Paris. The art market generated millions to our economy and now is bleeding away
  7. Probably taking him around to show him the area to see if its his type of area.
  8. I suppose it takes all kinds and we all look at things differently. I really enjoy it, and find it good to listen to as there is plenty of good insight. This particular episode I felt a bit disappointed with as I had a bit of an uplift after a win. Just felt the total dismantling of the manager, club and team a bit unwarranted. If you read Glenns blogs, he is never short of a cutting comment but they are entertaining and he is doing it from the heart. Im sure he could start an argument in a phone box but his heart is all Saints. Anyway, I am a big supporter of this podcast. Looking forward to the next episode to see if there is a softening of the stance.....I wouldn't hold my breath though
  9. I dont think10,000 empty seats have anything to do with what NJ says. It was live on Sky, terrible weather, economics, and the fact the most optimistic fan would expect a thumping. It is not great going to a home game, seeing the side battered and have to endure the celebrating away fans. The seats will soon fill once there is hope,.
  10. Interesting that someone posted the utter drivel that KWP hated him, not the way he ran up and celebrated with him I should say
  11. I doubt he's a great fan of the majority of the fanbase I suspect. He has had IMO appalling treatment. I can hold my head up as I was prepared to give him a chance. No doubt all the critics are hiding under a stone and will reappear once we lose

    Faced Zaha and Man City as a right back it seems and has done pretty well, as this was a baptism of fire. Well done to NJ and staff if it was their inspiration
  13. You are kidding I assume
  14. (In a Norwegian accent) Doswell, Glenn, Jacob and Martin your opinions have taken one hell of a beating tonight..........................................well until saturday lol 😀😀😀 only teasing lads

    Well that could be the same for us,
  16. All gossip I suspect.
  17. I wish I could understand all that. I think if you were around here, my business might be on the first page of google!!

    Out of interest does anybody know how many tickets Leicester were given last night at St James Park? There didnt seem many fans , or they didnt sing as you heard nothing from them. Newcastle put away fans well away from where they can influence the atmosphere.. Am much bigger ground of course but we put the welcome mat out
  21. I know you support the team. We are in need of hopefully getting some performances to pick up morale.
  22. I totally get where you are coming from but to me the balance is 1. do you believe SR's arrogance will see them sacking the manager 2. the cost after paying off Ralph (why he was given such a long contract!! that goes for many of the players as well) 3. If we have to accept that the manager is staying, should we not shrug our shoulders and get behind the team and management. Afterall it is self harming not to. There will be a percentage of knuckleheads who want us to fail badly in the next couple of games just so their vain hope of a change comes into play. We didnt expect NJ so who they are likely to follow up with lord knows I personally am giving NJ time and feel he will turn things around. I would like to see us being more aggressive, get the ball into/near the oppositions penalty area rather than the playing around our defence, into midfield and back again while the opposition can reform their defence. I believe you wont see our players doing the 'gentleman's excuse me' allowing attacks to build, but the dark arts will break up attacks before they get our defence. The best teams have always done it, but our team of choirboys play it fair. Get some grit in our game, getpoints on the board then start developing the pretty stuff. Far more exciting
  23. No idea, perhaps they thought we were going to play longball, whilst at the same time asking for Dyche to be manager
  24. No I dont agree, he was booed as people thought he was rubbish and the were many threads on Saintsforever (?) saying so
  25. People say they didnt but Crouch was booed time and again, then he made his mark and became a hero, of course no-one ever booed him and was airbrushed out of history. To me the plain fact is the owners are not going to sack him yet and so by making his life (the teams) hell, only hurts us
