Secret Site Agent

And here comes the final update. As of this morning they have given me a 'Goodwill' payment, without predujice, for £89.00 to ensure that I now go away. It's the advantage of having a large company with a number of top legal minds on retainer. The downside is that as it is a company car, I don't get a bean, my firm does. I only get the moral victory. Which tastes nice, but you can't spend it down West Quay.

I'm happy, and a little relieved, but glad to get it over with. I like listening on the Saints player and enjoy when Dave and the other feller, (his name escapes me) try to talk over the 'Dirty Skate Bastards' chant so we can't hear it and fail every time. COYS

I normally let them start with their spiel then I ask them if they are happy with their mobile phone provider and if they are interested in an 18 month free line rental, or if they are happy with their energy provider and if they would like the savings offered by having a combination deal, or if they have ever considered the benifits of installing solar panels with all of the government grants available. Just a bit of fun but it's quite hilarious sometimes when they are trying to get back onto their script and I keep diverting them back to buying something from me. I also like to argue with Jehovas Witnessess by asking silly question s like Was the church without a witness for 18 centuries? Doesn't Isaiah 43:10 refer to Israel? Doesn't 2 Timothy 3:15-17 and John 5:39 -40 prove the Scripture alone can lead us to salvation? Are they being obedient to Acts 1:8? I have noticed that i no longer get cold calls or people asking me if I have heard the good word.

I didn't poit it out at the time but I know where Cortese is coming from. A little analogy from my own experience: When I joined my current firm, there was a little social event called 'The Friday Night Club' which my new collegues got together after work on a Friday to have a few drinks and a curry on occasion. As it is in Reading, near where most of them lived, I never really partook, as I would only be able to have one drink and then would have to drive home to Southampton. Anyway a large number of them left the company but it still continued. Anyway, we had a large job that went on for 3 years which the last remaining few were on. They had a big Xmas party, which this job paid for, of which 10 people went. Of the ten, only two of them worked for us. They came to a few leaving do's, took part in a golf day, made up half the team for a raft race, popped into the office when they were passing, drunk my coffee, eat my biscuits, two of them helped themselves to 20 of my sleepers. In essence, these people that I only knew for a short time still acted like they owned the place and just helped themselves. So, unfortunatly, I totally agree with Cortese and know where he is coming from, even if he isn't throwing the insult directly to Lawrie and Matt, it is easy to become ****ed off and generalise.

I have always liked Steele for many years, but I wouldn't want him if it upset the apple cart and for me, he would come here as number two, which he wouldn't do. Emnes on the other hand I think CDAJFU. I believe Nige would be able to bring him on more, and he would be a success.

I have just started the Peoples Egalitarian & National Independant Saints, and I and my members are happy to stand erect. With a hand we feel we can come good, and cover the area with love.

Where could I buy one of these duvets with a stumpy blond thing on? My regular duvet has no stumpy blond thing and i feel i'm missing out.

Because SMS was built by a bunch of sweaty socks, and not me, where as TMS was built by a team of local Reading based constructors, and me. Simple really. It's me. I'm the missing element.

The guy in the black coat at the back is thinking: Wait a minute..... We're beating West Ham 1-0 We're top of the Championship, We have the top scorer in the league We sold an 18 year old with only 1 years League one experience for 15 million................ Are yes, there's fat Elvis with someone's head stuck up his arse. That confirms it, i'm definatly dreaming. Although why i'm next to this lady of ample proportions and not a naked Kelly Brook in this dream i'll never know.

Give me one against West Ham..... Two againts Reading...... Three against Pompey....now go Prem go.... But don't you, Step on Nicolas shoe's, you can do anything but don't step on Corteses' shoes. He'll knock you out Step on your face, Refuse you season ticket, Charge for your parking place, He'll lead us back to the promised land, But **** him off, and you'll be banned. Etc.

The results of what happens when someone is arse licking and the recipiant stops suddenly.

I could sheet better player than that lot. Look......

I have to agree with Daren here: "You always play two up top, it gives us the best chance to win, but it doesn't against Southampton." s****** s****** [/i] "Their strength lies in midfield and their service to Lambert so if we drop a forward & put one more in midfield we can benefit." Oh yes lordy lordy "If you can break down Southampton's midfield and stop them passing the ball around you can defeat them, but it won't be easy for us on Tuesday." These are my tactics, write then down Nigel, (laughs up sleeve) On Match Day, "Here's my team sheet, 4-4-2. I'm sorry Nige, were you expecting 4-5-1? I suppose you coiuld change things 'alf time." He he he. It's doesn't help me that not only dooes my boss support WHU, he looks like Sam Allerdice, (which helped me get laid once on a business trip to Cyprus, where I pretended to be the hooker Steve Thompson, with some overweight bimbo claiming to be an ex pop star). So win or lose, I lose. But we'll win 3-1. And i'm putting money on that.

Lambert proves, with a little help from Nigel, he can a-n-a-l-l-y intrude around corners.

Yes, I believe that Richard Lambert should play for the England team. I believe he would work his testicle off, would score 3 goals, (One from distance, one with his head and one from the free kick), and would be dropped for Crouch as it is embarrasing that he is able to show them up. And stick Adam Lallana on the wing, and Kelv in goal. And stick it up them. Here is a question. In cup games against 'weaker' teams, most clubs field a second eleven, if you will. How about the next time we play, say, Tonga, or Belgium, or Micronesia, we have the england team consisting of Championship players? Good Idea, or shall I get my coat?

OH, NO. Here i go on my Soap Box. I agree with the above Whole Heartedly. They would play their ******** off and would probably succeed where Rooney, Lampart et al would fail. I would prefer to see a team full of youngsters, and/or Championship players, who play their hearts out, full of pride for playing for the National team, rather than the bunch of over paid, over hyped prima donnas we have now. They can't be ar sed to play for the National team, drop them. They'll soon appear in the Sun and the Mirror winging about not being picked. The team for all upcoming international games will include Rooney, Gerrard, Terry, Fedinand, Lennon etc for the only reason that they are always picked and it seems to be a contract requirement of the England manager to pick them, rather than those players that show Pride, Heart, Character and Drive to succeed on the international stage, who see it as an honour to wear the England badge, rather than their right. And if they don't sing the national anthem, stick them on the bench until they hear the word ringing in their ears, and the occasion thumbing in their hearts, and for Rooney, get him the words on tape and in a 'Dot to Dot' book so he knows them as well. I am mightily sick with the bunch of no mark tossers on a million pounds a week who squander the chance of doing something for the fans who pay their wages, either by attending the games, or suscribing to Sky. That buch of ar ses that lost in the Rugby against France on Saturday at least looked like they were suicidal and they were pained by loosing, and big Martin Johnson looked like he was going to cry. A big nancy you may think, but at least it shows some emotion. I don't think the Football team even care if they win or not. Who here thinks that Rooney got sent off for fustrution during the game, or was it because his old man got caught out in the betting sting? And another thing. How about if they extended the punishment for a Red card to two games for their club as well as on the international stage? Punich the club as well for them embarassing their country on live national television, and in front of thousands of fans, and being a bad role model to thousands of kids up and down the country. You've started me off now.

I think we are missing the one factor he has going for him. He and Sepp Blatter speak the same language. He'll be the best England manager that money can buy.

If his experience of Morris Dibben is the same as mine, he'll have 80 through the door a week, of which: 40 could never afford it, and are being forced to llok at it as they are looking at a property in the vicinity, 10 will want some kind of change to the kitchen/living room/bedroom/bathroom, before they will consider it, 5 will be Polish who will make an offer for the asking price and then back out at the last minute as 'You dont use timber in upstairs flooring, the concrete floor is breaking up' 8 will make an offer 20 % below asking price as 'that's all it's worth' 6 will make an offer then will not be able to get the mortgage 4 will back out as their mortgage company employs some idiot of a surveyor who mistakes the construction for a different type 7 will be wanting to convert it into flats for students, so will try and bully him into selling cheaply within the next week. And after that, he'll go through about 6 others before finally selling.

Wow, I predicted at least a week would go by before a counter argument against Cortese appeared. I thought it would be the Stelling one, but no, here it is after two days. So we have a rant from someone who had his season ticket refunded (alledgedly) with a rant based on nothing but hearsay and inuendo, following a glowing bunch of toss in a daily rag, who used to hate NC but don't any more, after he has a dig at free loaders who peope ASSUME must be Matty and Lawrie, and the rant on National TV of another individual who made ASSUMPTIONS. And boh of the Media outlets owned by the same man. Total and utter garbage.

Or employed to Slate him?!???????!!!!!!!?????

I was a little worried. I wouldn't want Steve to go for less than £20 mill

Converted, or influenced, my Daughter at 7 by taken her. The whole atmosphere and the 'Pie and a pint' (of Hot chocolate and sausage Roll) was an experience for her. She still speaks now about never seeing so many people in one place all singing together, going on the pitch at the last game of the season, how friendly everyone was and when she lost her scarf, she was crying on the walk back to the car and when we were asked, by total strangers what was the matter, she was given three scarfs and a top. By fellow saints fans. She has converted a couple of her friends and a few have come with us, and she regularly argues wiuth the boys at her school about being glory hunters. She even questioned her Teacher about giving loyalty to your local team, and not to look for success,'.....by always following the winners. If you do that, then you will always be changing who you support, and you miss out on the feeling of winning when he have been losing for a while, and the winning when your not supposed to.' My lad was a bit of a Manure fan until i got him on the straight and norrow and back to Saints. He only followed Manure because all his friend did, and saints were crap. I'm working on the Construction industry as we speak, I have a few Brighton, Some Skates, Leyton Orient, Manure and Liverpool, Hartlepool, S****horpe, Liverpool, Tranmere and Port Vale. I'll let you know how I succeed. I can always sack them, but being in Tunbridge Wells, they are a bit more difficult to replace.

Well, they have to invent a new type of pink for the way I am tickled at the moment. I must confess that I have a little faith and understanding in what NA had done with his signings......But still would have liked a forward, but understand it has to be a certain someone of a certain type, not just anyone. Impressed with most of the team so far, AL has come on leaps and bounds, Rickie doing well, Old Man Conelly seems to have got a second wind, Kelv the super goalie, Danny Fox, Morgan, Hammond who has impressed. The whole team seems to have gone up a gear and has improved. The only one I am questioning at the mo is Hooiveld. As someone who listens to a lot of games as well as attending them, he seems to have been quite anonymous so far. Can't remember him getting a mention. Still, in NA we trust and i'm sure him and Steve De Ridder will only improve. Did I mention I am tickled pink?

This Hasn't really got anything to do with Brighton, but asks the question if there is a yard stick to measure teams, and if so, what is it. At least you answered, gave you opinion, job done.

Just Listening to the Leicester v Brighton game and the fans follow up, etc. One comment is that they lost to only one goal so it proves they are a better team than us as we let in 3 goals. BUT, we did score two past them. Can't personally see the correleation, but which theory do you think has legs? Taking this a bit further, which is the decideder if not the above? Who finishes higher? Who beats who in a head-to-head? Are Leicester the bench mark team? Or should it be Middlesborough? Am I bored with no football today?Should I just carry on replacing the floorboards in my toilet and shut the fark up? Red or Black, You decide.
